    CJ, I'm one of the Fire Fighters that was there, and the car didn't go up in flames immediately. I would have to say it was a good 45 sec after we got to you the fire started. So we want to know what got it going when we find out what started it. This will help us in the future.

      More than likely wiring igniting a fuel source or shorted wiring. Does the car have a kill switch. Can anyone confirm it was cut off after help arrived

      @code 3 dives was the fuel pump still energized? If the fuel cell was cracked and the fuel pump windings were energized it’s a possibility of that being the source of ignition. As a retired FF/EMT and investigator and a fellow drag racer and had my brother get burned in a race car accident in 94 due to the driveshaft came apart and toke out the fuel line allowing the pump to ignite the fuel because it was still energized because master switch was still on at the time. Hope he figures it out.

      Thank y’all for being there as quick as you was and doing what y’all done to get the fire out. I still haven’t located what ignited the fuel. The shut off switch itself is still clear from any metal there was no wiring where the fire was so I feel it had to have started from maybe fuel that had splashed around or just the vapors and then that lit the puddle the fuel cell has a small crack in it and that’s where the fuel was coming from yet nothing in the path that the leaking fuel would have traveled to ignite it. I haven’t gotten really heard up to take parts off of the car yet other than the engine but when I do I’ll definitely be trying to find the starting point of the fire and will let you know. Thank you and your team once again for putting yourselves in harms way to save mine. 👊🏼

      @@raggedyannohiosmalltire2329 for something to take that long to ignite my first thought is heat build up from shorted wires. Either something had to get hot enough to ignite it over time. Or a fuel source had to become big enough over time to ignite. Keep us posted Brother. To look at that car and then hear you walked away basically harm free is nothing short of a miracle. The fact you prepped the shoot before that run makes me think a higher power was at work and trying to prepare you for what was to come. Looks like all the Wife's prayers to Raggedy Ann to keep you safe worked. That's a miracle

    In 2000, I walked away from a bad wreck. Over a short time, I lost some flexability and balance. It was as though I aged 10 years in 6 months. It was a new struggle, but I had some help from a book on reflexology. Something I could do without cost that helped with pain from living and stretching. What I didn't do because I didn't know was realizing I couldn't do some quick stretching because of time constraints. I really needed more time to stretch. To conclude, make a daily stretching regiment and try/use reflexology. Your life is different now, work with it ... and pass this info and your future recognitions along to those who lives change from accidents. And, get a physical therapy balance disk like gofit. Here's how to use it. Stand on it. That's it.
    Good luck.

    Glad you are ok. I hàve been watching your career for a couple of years, before you got really popular. Not trying to ride you but I believe some certain safety factors could maybe have saved your car. Get in the habit of pulling the chute. Always. I just noticed while checking the motor after the accident that it full of dirt. Seems like it was running long after the accident. Didn't shut it down before you couldn't stop? I'm just saying. Us fans need you around. Who is to say what started the fire. The car had stopped then the fire started. Be safe. Practice shutdown procedures. Even after the race is run accidents happen..👍
