Not going to debate how a guy strapped into a race car facing forward while towed from behind knows exactly how to steer a car since I never have. Based on your photo the car is being drug on the front frame rail for sure and it looks like the axle is back on the left side. Lots of mistakes made here. Without knowing the discussions on the track I would ask why the whole car was not picked up? I guess really doesn’t matter it’s over now.

He wasn't strapped in he was hanging off the nerf which was not a smart move to begin with.

Here's a video for all your viewing eyes. https://www.tiktok.com/@thedirttrack..._t=8lYbirJK3JK

Go to 2:50 of the video. Robert's right hand comes off the wheel, goes to the top of the cage. Right hand never goes close to being back on the wheel. It's hard to see, but his right hand goes from top of cage to the back of the cage. When the car hits the wall his hands are no where near the wheel.

If he want's to blame anyone and lay his hands on anyone. He needs to blame himself. For that he needs a suspension for laying his hands on a track worker. Tow truck driver can't do anything about the car dog tracking. That's on Robert to hold that wheel straight.
