Mis-shift
or
seized engine

| Re: Mustang vs Busa vid Mis shift. If the engine seized he would've went over the handlebars, and he probably wouldn't have gotten up on his own. |

| Re: Mustang vs Busa vid Nah... sieze the engine and you get a slippery rear end. You wouldn't go over the bars unless you lock the front.
You can see a little puff of smoke from the rear tire just before wash out.
Nice wheelie from the stang though! |

| Re: Mustang vs Busa vid I dunno either, but that is one badass mustang. Either way, Busa boy needs to learn how to ride his bike before he takes it to the track  |

| Re: Mustang vs Busa vid I can't believe that they let him drag race a car at the track anyway. I used to drag race quite a bit (car, not bike) and they never let that happen. |

I've never seen a Mustang do that.
I have, however, seen a Busa do THAT. |
