It's pretty sad when we loose 2 Funny Car drivers in 2 years. The whole safety issue needs to be reviewed from top to bottom. Chassis construction, safety equipment as well as the tracks. The only other real alternative is what Jim Head proposes and that's shortening the timed portion of the race track to 1/8th mile or 1000'. With the cost of racing going so sky high, most racers would like to see this happen anyway.
