Friday night excitement

Well the day started off normally, and we took the turbo rusty to the dragstrip, very hot and humid weather, but why the hell not get some runs in. Car was doing good. 2 passes were very low 11s at 128mph or so. Third run, something funny happened when ryan tried to slow down, and by funny i mean the front right tire exploded! i didnt notice it when i was recording, but i did see it on the replay, the white cloud of smoke is his tire letting go, somehow he managed to keep the car strait and safely come to a stop. The damage is the tire obviously and the rim is shot now, it also bent the front fender up a little wich we will try to fix. All in all pretty crazy... check out the pics and video
