A bad day at the race track many years ago

Reminds me of Pocono Drag Lodge.
My close call was at Island Dragway in 1969. Kid driving his fathers brand new GTO Judge lost it at about the 300 ft mark, and didn't lift. Vaulted over the guardrail, over the chain link fence, and landed on top of my 60 Chevy "stocker". I had the hood up and was working on the engine, but heard the noise, dropped my tools and ran. My car was repairable, GTO was a total. Only injury was the GTO driver, had a cut on his arm, and a girl in the pits, got a minor injury from a piece of debris. From that day, I no longer pit near the fence.
