Jaw dropping footage of Grebeck crash
The Mustang Works has received a video with footage shot track side, right at the point where Steve Grebeck's Pro 5.0 car collides with Bill Rimmer's Pro 5.0 car during the Spring Break Shootout from one of the spectators. The footage is absolutely jaw dropping.

I can't believe what I just saw! I don't even want to imagine what was going through Steve's mind as this was occuring. How sadening.

I went to the funeral home last night. It tore at my heart for anyone losing a family member. Especially when someone so young that went to highschool with my wife...
On the brighter side, there were TONS of people ther showing their respects, and put a smile on my face to see so many racing jerseys (not black suits) That, and the walls were filled with posterboards of photos of all the cars and events and friends that everyone will miss. Condolences to the family.

When I first heard about the accident my jaw dropped and now I've seen the video,the video sent shivers down my whole body.

This thread is now unstuck.
BTW: The Grebeck clips have been downloaded already, in a week and a half, over 30,000 times. YIKES!
