The Deadly Sport

NHRA drag racer

If a sky diver jumps from a plane at 5000 feet and his parachutes fail to deploy, tragedy ensues.

Similarly, if the parachute fails to deploy on a Funny Car dragster at an NHRA event, someone is not going to walk away from it.

Drag Racer Neal Parker died on June 11, 2010 when his parachute failed to open. He crashed into the shutdown area.


This is the second NHRA racing accident in 2010 which has taken human life. In February a woman was hit and killed by a tire at an NHRA event.
