Big Gravy here. Saw that some folks want to know, "What I was thinking?" Well, it turns out - not much. Did finally get in some communication with Tyler Murphy, and I apologized to him, and we are good now. He is a great American and consider him a friend. When I was at the start line, one of the track officials told me Tyler's truck sounded like it had a rod knocking pretty bad, and Tyler mentioned he was having trouble with his clutch. So when the green dropped and he didn't move, I just backed up as a joke and puddered around. I wrongfully "assumed" he went back to pit road over by turn two. I honestly wasn't tracking he was still on the track (and I can't hear Ryan in the Mustang with my helmet on). My intent coming out of turn 3 was to ease into the inside lane and keep puddering across the finish line. Completely dumb move on my part since Tyler was on the track and charging hard. Although the incident was a terrible accident, it is another example of why you don't bring your car out there unless you are ok with the potential for it to get damaged. There were some on other sites who questioned my "racing edicate" on this and other races. Let me just say, I never get on the track to just showcase how pretty I am or my car is... my intent is to win and win every time if possible. It really is as simple as that. If my car gets damaged in pursuit of victory, then it gets damaged. Here is the bottom line: Race fans, for no matter what division, appreciate a warrior mentality when racing. I'll be back when I get the car repaired.

Looking forward to seeing ol’ Mayo back in all its glory!

[@ryanbennett2227]

That's racing.....

[@HongKongPhooey99]

I can appreciate your honesty and accountability. As a racer of over 30 sum years. I’ve had my share of “what was I thinking “. lol

[@silverbulletgarage309]

YOURE NOT RACING BRO

[@Matt-mo8sl]

I admire your candidness. So, is the car gonna get fixed? That looks like a new door and fender at very least.

[@nastynate8585]

at least he was man enough to admit fault and apologize

[@nicholasagnew2792]

@@Jaysaffell4 Hahaha...if it wasn't for the airbag he'd be in the i.c.u.

Yeah the exact opposite from the Blazer guy. This guy actually has morals and respect.

Big Gravy to winner's circle photographer...."can you please get my good side?" .... 🤣

Race wasn't over and mustang was coming to pit road lol

[@rks29]

False.

[@garagekudos3953]

think he was doing the same thing the taurus did in the second race and trying to cut the corner a bit? strange decision to make though.

[@Shiner0438]

Well he needs to learn how to run a racing line

[@garagekudos3953]

@@Shiner0438 he clearly knows how to he just made a mistake

[@evcass69]

He noticed pedestrians in the pits 😊

I wish that I had a track like this around here, this looks awesome and would love to be in the crowd...😊

[@emeyer6963]

It is a nice track.Been there many times.

[@just_observing1]

It's the same on the highways they don't know what those mirrors are there for

[@racerx2580]

Brainless. It's incredible to watch these fuking morons.

[@JohnDoe-id9hi]

Now is Wavy Gravy

[@nessie42786]

Looks like the Mustang was trying to enter the pits

[@SuperMustangred]

Sign a waiver and take your chances.

[@MrCheck30]

Nothin like a 2013-2014 GT man they have the best lines even when wrecked haha

[@matrox]

Big Gravy hit his brakes on that turn thinking Murphy way behind and Murphy was running flat out not know BG was going to hit his brakes.

[@MichaelBruce-m1r]

New Smyrna is a really big track for spectator drags. Really cool to see but man, the risk of something really bad happening goes up when the speeds are higher.

[@Dolby109]

I don't know what either of them were thinking. The truck seriously had to know the Mustang wasn't racing anymore? He was inconceivably slow. But Also don't know why the Mustang was going for the inside pits or whatever is there.

[@3matic7]

Congrats. Now you can sell that trophy for ten bucks off another door !

[@JasonSmith-et6to]

Unfortunately the stang won't be as cheap to repair as the obs chevy

[@kramnull8962]

May want to send the mustang to Bendin with Bendin channel....

I've been to my fair share of spectator racing at the local tracks in Maine and I've seen where the competitor's will intentionally run into the other guy

[@skyedog24]

You couldn't keep me from finding that guy he would be in Boot Hill

[@briansweeney2342]

tough guy

[@popsfereal]

[@a_s10_blazer]

Why was the mustang going into pits? Dude was clueless on where the track was going

[@LuciferMorningstar-wk8qu]

The truck had been having problems, he thought truck was out of it, didnt realize it was on a run and tried to duck the pit lane.

[@derriklee287]

Classic display of chevy owner intelligence on display here. Great stuff

[@ryano8613]

If you are saying the Chevy is to blame here, you sir are not allowed on a track with other competitors. Lol

[@michaelgeerlings6615]

Typical Ford driver that is why they give you a pair of walking shoes with each junk Ford bought

[@lincolnls0416]

​@@michaelgeerlings6615that's funny because my Chevy had walking shoes when I bought it. Now it's in the shop broke down.

[@extremedrivr]

Insurance company: How did this accident happen?? Mustang Driver: Well sir, I was driving my car on an oval road and a truck hit me on the driver side.

[@klummpskards5652]

What Was He Thinking?

[@rader1175]

senior moment

[@DarrenMartin-x9v]

Seeing this reminded me of some Old Skool British Spectator Racing MADNESS from the year 1975 that includes a 1973 Rolls-Royce, a 1960's Ford Mustang convertible (roof down with no helmet or rollover safety!) & a 1969 Chevy Impala (which gets wrecked!) along with many other 'Spectator cars from the Car Park!' kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKW7g2ebn5mEpaM

[@livinginavwvan207]

you're asking for it racing a nice car against beaters out there

[@johnroberts9133]

h but how excited we're we to see the outcome, knowing it was coming, what a waste although it is repairable hahaha

[@dax2321]

what a way to damage a nice mustang

[@scottymoondogjakubin4766]

Mustang was looking for a crowd but found a chevy truck instead ! 😩

[@coincollectorchase]

How lol the Mustang didn't even hit anything in this one

[@doorbash5680]

Not a white car person BUT love the sound of that Mustang

[@LuciferMorningstar-wk8qu]

What was the mustang thinging. He deliberately cut hard left.

[@OrmondbeachDaniel]

Love that Ben thanks the Lord takes a real man to do that. I didn’t like him because he drove a mustang but now he’s my brother so I have too.

[@tormentorxl2732]

I think he was trying to pull in the center.

[@JR-kr1lv]

Good for the Mustang, F__Ked on race day Ford!

[@johnkirby2774]

why was he turning down pit road?

[@shawnlibby675]

Very expensive..win for the mustang

[@ScatPackRob]

$100 should cover the door, and the quarter, and the fender, and the rocker, and the frame pull.

[@nickb1488]

Extra Gravy!

[@cobracharmer6178]

They both got pit row entrance mixed up.

[@mylesmcc12]

Why the hell did he run into him.

[@AngelRamirez-ye2co]

That's a chance you take when you sign a waiver , maybe you have a good car that you put some money on it, until some folks bring some cars that runs good but their junks so their loss is not that big like yours. But it's OK Take a trophy and $100 and you are the champion!!

[@matthewmcpherson152]

11 minutes to run three drag races?

[@leslieadkins1353]

Slow ass Chevrolet they try to let him catch up and look what he did to

[@iamgriff]

Big Gravy for the win!

[@ronnieking1025]

that will break him

What is wrong with the guy with the microphone? Why so hysterical?

[@MikeCoon-yi4gz]

Can they drink while the race. That would be cool.

[@robertahrens9481]

Explain to your insurance co.

You voted for Biden didn't you?

[@awdeveau]

​@@derriklee287The mustang driver admits it was his fault in the comment below this thread. On a side note, Biden voters are a myth. They're about as rare as unicorns and bigfoot. You hear a lot about them, but yet to be confirmed that they actually exist. 81 million ballots, not 81 million voters.

Truck should have never been on the track if it barely operates. Mustang was blatantly at fault. Cool video, though.

That idiot in the mustang was.diving down for pit road !? Where the hell was he going, did he not know he was on a race track

[@shawnlibby675]

Dude ran all the way across that track Mustang goes to other side of track dude starts running to other side of track becomes out of breath and loses his attitude about wanting to fight the guy in the Mustang cuz he ran out all his energy

[@SpeedwayVideo]

It does look like that 😝 Having the pleasure of knowing both of them I can say they are good pals and some of the nicest, most chill dudes you can meet at a race track. My guess is Tyler wanted to check on Gravy and apologize as soon as he could, and perhaps just ask for Gravy’s side of what had happened.

[@ebw16256]

Crazy to say Jesus saved him. 😂😂😂

Well, coulda been a lot worse my friend.

[@CamaroSS2236]

Typical mustang driver. Too much power and too little skill.

He admitted he was at fault...he shouldve been disqualified

[@Shiner0438]

1 lap is dumb

[@evcass69]

They used to have all spectator race cars in a 5 lap finale, but my understanding is they changed insurance companies, which put a keebosh on that 😢
