Pro Mod Racer Wayne Roberts’ Violent Tulsa Crash

Pro Modified racer Wayne Roberts, of Valley City, Kansas, was uninjured in a frightening on-track accident  at the Throwdown In T-Town at the Tulsa Raceway Park in Oklahoma. Roberts, in his supercharged Corvette, was competing in the Great Bend, Kansas makeup race, as part of the Mid-West Drag Racing Series, when he lost control just off the starting line and shot across the racetrack, striking the wall head-on near the 200-foot mark. The impact spun the car around and onto its roof, where it came to a stop in the center of the racetrack. Roberts was transported to a local hospital for evaluation, and returned to the racetrack the following day.

Veteran photographer Patrick “Red” Williams captured the entire ordeal from the top end of the racetrack, in a scene that has drawn plenty of eyeballs around social media. Scroll down to see the full sequence.
