Courtney Force walks away from HUGE explosion in Epping

Even though we would like to think that the situation is under our control when we head out to race, no driver is entirely in control as anything can happen at any time. There are some factors that are simply going to come to a head no matter how skilled you are or how perfect your pass is.

This time, we check in with Courtney Force as she’s heading down the track when a truly terrifying moment unfolds right in the middle of the race as her machine completely blows to bits in a ball of flames, leaving every spectator to watch on, hoping that she’d be able to make it out on the other end uninjured.

Check out the video below as Force takes this vicious blow head on and lives seemingly unscathed to tell all about it.

When you see something like this unfold in front of your eyes, you most certainly become just a little bit more thankful that these drivers are hooked up with so much safety equipment these days!
