This would have been 1990 or 1991, Joe was leading the feature. His throttle was sticking but he kept pulling it back up. Well going into turn 3 it didnt come unsutck. He launched off of the banking and went nose first into the ground and the car launched it self into the trees. I would guess it went about 30 to 35 feet into the air. He came down upside down with the throttle still stuck. Fell down through the trees and my cousin Danny and I belive Scott Welch got there and shut it off. Joe broke a collar bone I belive but did not get in the bus. A lucky night indeed!
