it was Bill Chambers... he went down at 184 just after the lights. I looked at the bike in his trailer. altho the rim was distroyed the tire showed no damage. the rear disc was purple, i suspect a rear brake was dragging, then boiled the fluid... when ya tap it, it probably locked up and didnt release, but this is only "my" guess.
Bill races a top fuel harley and is a very nice guy, i heard he had a busted hand with bones sticking out then later i heard later no broken bones at all, i hope not, my guess is he is probably pretty beat up.... I do know he was released from the hospital.
