Train wrecks aren’t coordinated as well as the incident that transpired following the final Pro Stock qualifying session for the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals. Two Pro Stockers incurred a measure of damage in an accident which involved three race cars and a golf cart.

According to eyewitness reports, a gust of wind suddenly thrust Rodger Brogdon’s parachute into Rickie Jones’ wheelie bars and caused Jones’ Mopar to run up on the wheelie bars of a parked Kurt Johnson whose Chevrolet Cobalt was forced into his team’s golf cart.

"It's only a little cosmetic damage," said Johnson crewmember Justin Belfance. "We'll clean it up, brush it with a coat of resin and then we'll put on a layer of carbon matting. Once that sets up and hardens, we'll flip it over, take off the duct tape on the outside, lightly grind it, put a finish coat on, that will straighten it right out. It should dry quickly today because of the heat so we're looking at about a two-hour job. We'll get it fixed and be ready for tomorrow."
