Spectacular crash Larry Dixon top fuel
 
It looks like his front end lifts and then front of dragster breaks in the middle. Very bizzare, glad he walked away from it.

It is crazy how much the chassis flex's on one of those cars.
He is a lucky guy! I sure wouldn't have wanted that ride.

looks like a chassis failure.....reminds me of the flip up crash I saw up in Sonoma years back involving Eddie Hill.

Jer, wasn't there rule changes with the front spoiler? Seems the two spoilers fighting each other (rear pulling the chassis up and the front pushing down) maybe finding a design flaw in the rail just ahead of the drivers pod. Love to be in that garage during the inspection.

Glad Dixon made it out of this one ok.
