The Dodge Challenger Message Board

I was chattin to a mate of mine at work earlier and he said he remembered seein a pic of a 71 Pace car that had done its outing lap and then run straight into the press box!!
I tried to look it up on the interweb, any body heard if it?
Bet the factory were embarrassed

Search on this forum. You should find at least one if not two or three threads on the subject with photos.

Had a quick look myself...

I am sure there was more but I think that is enough anyway.

I didn't even give it a go .........and on a challenger website, who'd have thought?!........., ta Daveman, I'll get me coat

Ive always known about the crash , but never have seen a picture of the actual car or accident..

That thing really slammed into the box and track crowd didnt it? I'd just assumed it had made a wobbly trip off the Tarmac but never realised it nearly caused multiple fatalities! No wonder the Dodge boys were embarrassed, who could sell a car that can't stop?!
