1300 hp mercury comet brake failure crash

I would have been looking to return to the garage the moment I'm braking just to keep at steady speed. I would have been concerned of throttle sticking at every position. I have experienced once driving up to the staging lanes. Turned around and back to the pits. Was just a sticky linkage that lube and very small adjustment corrected. I'm betting that was his only problem. Until brake failure. Now you're in a world of hurt.
