    So after seeing countless articles about "The drag racer that crashed in to the camera," finally there's one that mentions there was someone behind the camera...

    The video of her accident, which was filmed by ADRL videographer Grinner Hester and nearly took Hester himself out in the melee, was released on the web on Saturday and is quickly nearing one million views on YouTube. In addition, it was shown on Yahoo!, Fox News, USA Today, and countless other media sources. This comes just a week after the media latched onto the ESPN footage of Matt Hagan’s explosion in Charlotte last weekend.

    LOL - probably little consolation after nearly sh!tting yourself in the national spotlight, but getting your name in print is pretty cool just the same!

    At 1:18 into this interview, a clip shows Grinner jumping over the wall to escape.

    Done beat me to it with the link!

    Grinner- you need to practice your "dive and roll" technique! That looked like a bad face-plant when you cleared the barrier... You okay?

    Yeah- I'm sure scoring a "6.0" on the landing wasn't the first thing you were thinking of right about then...

    I love the leap Grin.....just watched the interview vid showing you. Man that was sooooo close.

    I have a buddy who races super stock NHRA camaros, and her dad is a customer of his. Says they call the cars guardrail magnets......too much power for that wheelbase.
