It was amazing to watch the wheel/tire come off like that. It is terrible to hear, god bless her family.
Basically Antron Brown took off, got maybe 100 feet and had to pedal it. The force snapped the wheel studs propelling the wheel/tire down track. It hit Antron's dragster but bounced over and kept going on the opposite side of the spectator wall pit side. It hit a woman that was a part of a Pro Mod team. She was medivacced out in serious condition and later confirmed dead. Antron Brown hit the wall and had a somewhat small fire but is reported to be ok.
