Taking a Boss to spectator drags

My friend John went to the spectator drags in Seekonk. I warned him that some of these guys will ram you. But they have to catch you first.

So what is the policy if they ram you? I remember seeing that one Jeep SRT8 video where the dude in some S10 Blazer just blasts him straight in the quarter panel at the green...

I am not sure, but there are plenty of videos like that. Think of it as the hockey of car racing. It's not a demolition derby, but they won't throw you out. I warned him and thankfully he got through it without a scratch.

Same as any other track event--you signed the waiver.
 
I'm not buying that statement....Same as any other track event--you signed the waiver.
The track has rules and a different type of drivers I would think. I dont track my car or spectator drags. I could be wrong but on the track people dont just try and take you out for shits and giggles. Different class of driver.

Some of them do, believe me. Plus you are right next to a guy who has no real track experience. Recipe for disaster.

Alls I'm saying is if you think you can force someone (track/other driver) to pay, you can't.
