For those who don't know...Connie Kalitta is the owner of Kalitta Air Charters. Connie bought and specifically equipped Air Craft to transport Our Fallen Heroes (KIA from Iraq and Afghanistan) in a dignified manner back home to their loved ones. It was a Vast Improvement from having them delivered as air cargo aboard commercial air craft.

Very sad.

Prayers to him and his family.

Personally, I think Funny Cars should be banned.

They really aren’t cars, they are a fiberglass body over a chassis. More than once, they have contained the fire and killed the driver.

I used to wrench on a 6 second ride that was a full frame off camero. A few years after I moved on, our boss ate fire when the fuel pump puked gallons of fuel on the hood at the line. He wouldn’t have lived had he been in a funny car. Even with his firesuit, he damn near didn’t make it.

A WALL???

Why would they build a wall at the end of the track?

Why not a sand trap?

When the green flag drops, the bullsh!t stops.

Rest in peace Scott.

Prayers up to your family and friends.

Guys like Scott go out to the edge and come back to tell the rest of us what it was like.

RIP Scott.
