Glad you’re okay. Car did its job and protected you.

[@1957burb]

Hate to see the car torn up, but really glad it was well-built and kept you safe. I'm sure you'll regroup and come back badder than ever! We're all interested to see how you're doing since the crash.

[@yotasavage]

Hate to see it but above all it’s incredibly you walked out of that unfazed and well. The way your husband gave you a hug when he saw you were ok ❤️. You know his heart hit the floor when he saw it happen.

[@allenlord3679]

Thankfully you were in every bit of your safety equipment and it definitely saved you ALOT of pain. Glad your safe and will be back at it.💯👍💪

[@AndyGeesGarage]

The fact you walked away from that speaks volumes to the quality of work put into the safety items like the cage, seat, harness and other item.

[@jaysgarage3616]

I have watched that crash a few times , that was quite violent. I am sorry to see your car destroyed but like everyone else has mentioned glad you were able to walk away , that's the most important thing!

[@jaredmcquiniff5362]

I’m glad you’re ok! The Maverick can be fixed/replaced. You’re a good driver, don’t let this keep you from getting back out there

[@jerrellkull5347]

Looked like rear differential locked up as you crossed the finish line. Glad you walked away from that, those hits we're brutal. Take care Tess and crew.

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

it actually spun right as I lifted. Driveshaft speed shot up a couple hundredths before i was out of the gas.

[@dailylife3975]

Looks like something in the rearend broke sorry for the bad luck glad your ok

[@anthonyraposas8868]

I’m glad you walked away from that. I’m sorry any of it happened. You hit hard as F. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Hope to see you back in the seat too.

[@timleonard1802]

I’m so glad she wasn’t hurt any worse ( praise the Lord) she took a hard impact and could of been so much worse ….I cried when I first saw this video…I have been a big fan of S.R.C. and the old mans garage and as you two came into the picture I started watching your channel and fell in love with Tess ( k good bye and silly hello ) and love you both how you just fit together in everything in life …nothing but best wishes and beautiful dreams for you both …love ya guys ….Tim….❤❤❤❤

[@young11984]

Broke my heart to see you all work to make the round then that happens, terrified me when i saw how much you bounced around and how much your head moved.....in the end you were ok physically and thats all that matters. Good luck on the rebuild.

[@dannywilsher4165]

Glad you are ok! Sucks that all that hard work is messed up so quickly!! Rebuild and return, that's what we do!!!

[@brosselot1]

Glad you are ok, I don't understand why people that run 140 plus dont have chutes on the car street car or not get out of shape pull the damn chute, I lived through something very similar in my S-10 many years ago and my father put a chute on the truck after that and I have hit the wall a few times but the chutes saved the truck and probably my life, I only say this out of concern not being critical. I have been a long time subscriber to your channel and you are a good driver. Good luck and hope to see you racing again.

[@ironfistvail]

A chute wouldn’t have stopped this from happening. to be honest it’s extremely rare that a chute or chutes as you say stops you from hitting the wall and crossing the track. It may have slowed her down in a straight line and maybe she would have only hit the wall head on at 120 instead of 130. she had all the safety equipment required for the times she was running and chutes are not to prevent accidents they are made to slow down cars NHRA says only cars running 150+ in the 1/4 you are required to have ONE chute because there is not enough track to slow down on brakes alone and anything over 200+ in the 1/4 you need chutes plural as you say and she’s not going 200+

[@PaulH_1972]

Just goes to show how safe these machines really are. That was one hell of an impact. Glad that you walked away unscathed 👍🏻

[@mytruthslays1303]

Holy crap what a hit! 160mph is no joke at all, glad you were able to walk away. Safety equipment worked!

[@thejunkman7125]

There is just something about a woman that isn't afraid of getting dirty, turns wrenches, and drag races! You go girl! P.S I want one!

[@robertquackenbush5547]

I totally agree with you 👍

[@chrisgleis4297]

Me too

[@alabamawildman26]

Glad you were not hurt in that. I gotta say the look on your face during the crash. You the real deal. The focus and didnt really see you panic to much through your that shield on your helmet. Hats off to you. Again happy to see you were not hurt.

[@Iaminsaneone]

A couple of massive hits, the Maverick done it's job, I am so glad you were able to walk away, and hope you are back racing soon. Must be heartbreaking to lose such a classy, well built car, after all the hours put in, but I am sure the next one you build will be as awesome.

[@mygirl03]

Glad you're okay. Take some time to heal up then decide who's going to step up, the comet or the foxbody you guys recently picked up.

[@frankenstanggarage7911]

Whew, glad it didnt go over, that was a hard hit on the second impact... glad your ok! Big props to the track crew for getting out to you as fast as they did!

[@bigwater52]

Dam, what a ride! You kept your composure and was calm afterwards! Hope your fine

[@rhuffines13]

Tess, my heart goes out to you, hope your wrist heal soon, xoxo

[@kansasspeedperformancellc6670]

I am truly sorry that you had that experience. I understand the feelings that go along with crashing it is not easy to get through but you will get through it and be back in the seat again. Truly the mark of a true drag racer with a love and passion for racing.

[@jasonwilliams1705]

Tess, so sorry for the loss of the Maverick. We all are very thankful, it wasn't worse than it was...keep your spirit ☝ and we hope you heal up soon.

[@MadSceintist]

Gotta say.... This woman is the pinnacle of Badass! She gave the car and track everything that car could have ever given trying to catch up and damn she was going.... just imagine if she'd hit it on time and left the line even half of what she was behind. I'm glad she's ok and really look forward to seeing her and that car back on the track

[@ericstorer3469]

The other car jumped

[@Mike583]

So sorry for all the damage to your car,just glad you're ok! Personally I've always liked the 9" rear the best.❤👍

[@kennethchapman9564]

Back in 1978 acquired a 1970 maverick from N.C. body had less than 20k miles on it. Between the shock towers was a brand new crate Boss 302 motor. Maverick had more mustang suspension than maverick. Jack Rousch headers, big spline Ford top loader with Hurst competition plus shifter at the rear was narrowed 9" nodular carrier with Detroit Locker 4:11 gears. Street raced a good bit, hurt a lot of feelings. Sad to see yours ripped to pieces but glad you walked away.

[@nickorozco9177]

Awww, you poor girl , glad your ok . That was a bad one , u took it like a champ ! Wish the car woulda came out of it better , but u seem determined , im sure the next one will come soon and b even better . Good luck , ill b watchin for updates on a new build ! With as cute as you are and how hard of a worker u are , im sure youll get alot of support . Hopefully these videos get ALOT of views and a bunch of new subscribers to help w/ the process !

[@mustangmike11aldrich74]

Glad your ok! The shut down seemed a bit sketchy to me, my car got really close to the wall in the right lane as well. It looked like you were clearly steering left and it still went right. Good luck getting back out there!

[@komradkolonel]

Anyone who's been in a car wreck before knows how violent they can be. It goes without saying how fortunate you were to be able to walk away from this one.

[@hotrod500hp]

I hit "like" for viewership. Hit like for Tess and Tony staying safe. the safety crew and equipment saved Tess physically. can't "like" the ending carnage. Honestly didnt know this happened till checking out channel after SRC and the New 410 ride.

[@itsmrarizona]

what a ride glad the safety stuff did its job and remember its only metal and you are ok that is all that matters

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

I’ve had the car for so long, it doesn’t feel like just metal to me. It feels like I just lost a child.

[@dupont4sure]

i'm glad your okay Miss Midnight Maverick! it sucks seeing this car gone, she was a legend!

[@jaredshoemaker9196]

Glad you're okay to race another day. Take care, be safe, and have fun regardless.

[@dwight072]

OH NO !!! Glad to see you're ok. You guys handled it well. I know you will come out with something even better. Keep us posted.

[@terrybyrd4386]

I enjoy the banter going on as you two work on the car's together. Billy has fun working with you two and has a fun example of a racing couple that gets in done and enjoys the process too. Keep the content coming with Tess turning wrenches.

[@jaystepp150]

Your tuff as a pine knot ol girl!! Glad you’re okay. Hopefully there is a lot of salvageable parts to get you going again soon.

[@dewaynelong7198]

Heartbreaking such a beautiful car, but mostly glad all safety equipment kept you safe.!

[@armandomartinez2953]

You guys have a great channel I watch it all the time I'm so sorry this happened to you very glad you're okay. Hope to see more videos in the future

[@dakirk1000]

Hope you're okay...adrenaline hides the pain.❤️❤️🇨🇦

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

Oh man, it really does.

[@damonrice8469]

Glad you are ok, I'm glad I got a chance to meet you and Tony at Mod Nats 2022. I guess u will be MissGreyMare now.

[@vinshanestrickland4179]

Alot of good she stayed calm tried her best to capture it but there is just those times when you are not going to save them all she is a true driver to stay calm and not over react nothing she did caused this great video alot of people can learn from stay calm don't over steer and make it worse

[@diygaragetx]

There's a lot of good to take from this video, despite the outcome. 1) The safety crew was on point, did their job proficiently and even inspected the helmet, belts and head restraint for damage so they cant be used again in case of fatigue. 2)Awesome to see you in there with the guys getting dirty and hands on, it' isn't just for men 3)Good to see the car held up GOOD for what it went through 4)EVERY single video I watch, I look for safety stuff because so many of us don't take it serious - You're in the group of a few people I see that appears to be 100%..GOOD JOB! 5)lastly and most importantly - you got out relatively unscathed. Any idea what the cause was? Internet diagnosis looks to me like the rear end locked up - you can see it skidding the back tires after the initial hit, or that's the brakes locked up in the back?

[@David-uu1oj]

A chute probably would not have prevented the initial hit, but, having already activated one prior to finish line may have kept the Mav from crossing over so violently. At this level of performance you gotta have one. Sorry for this loss.

[@856richard]

I agree about the positive. Great job . She remind me of my mom in the 60's &70's. I feel the scariest part for me was when she was under the car when the right side came down a little then she repositioned under the car on her knees . BIG safety ping , NO JACK STANDS. please use them in the future when working under the car. Can't wait to see you back in the drivers seat.

[@TheRoguelement]

To everyone who need to flag the Racing safari safety crew as Hero's .. I just wanna remind you that's the Job ..OK they did their job ,, Much like a cop who does his job or a Nurse who does her's it's when people DON'T do their job we have problems . Like say when the Entire Republican party puts party before country and DOES NOT DO THEIR JOB..and allows a criminal to stay in office ...

[@kcav5374]

@@TheRoguelement Amen!

Sounded like the ring & pinion locked up!

Subscribed on the recommendation of old man's garage sorry to see that happen to the Maverick see you back at the track soon Glad you're okay

[@mikeschwindt7407]

That was a very nasty crash and hard to watch.. I'm just so happy you walked away with no serious injury. I hope the car is repairable and your back on the track next season. I wish you the very best.

[@shitbox82]

Glad you’re ok!! Loved the Mav, sorry this happened to you guys. 😔

[@jerryfrederick6610]

At 6:52 when you jumped under the car with the drain pan. Proves beyond a shadow of doubt that you are a "Racer" with a "Racers Heart" your hair went in the drain pan and you stayed on task. Did not even blink. Total bad ass!

[@thatdudeinorange2297]

In some way it feels weird to click on the thumbs up when a crash like this happens, but you keeping calm and switching off everything 👍 Cant really tell if you have a 'Hans' device, if not then make it your first priority getting one before racing again! Doesnt matter if rules say you can get away with just this and that safety equipment, get the best you can even if it costs a lot! Ok?!

[@Motor-City-Mike]

Tess, Fugly B.S. greasy track, off both walls and with a cool head you kept working to collect it up 'til it was over - that's how a real driver does it. Way big Respect, WAY Can't believe how greasy it was up top. Told you before - So happy the safety equipment and the car protected you! (I feel you about the car - been there, it hurts) I was busy earlier and it popped into mind, "wonder how things are for Tess" Yeah, you got fans cross country.

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@poorboytrucking1]

Damn that was a pretty hard hit. Looked like the rear end locked up to me.

[@michelleday9723]

So glad you are ok! Sorry it happened 😔 I hope to see you at the next race. Take care...

[@MTigers006]

Hard to watch someone get thrown around like that, but thankful you are ok. Things can get replaced, but you can not.

[@jorgejefferson8251]

Darn shame that happened to you and your car, but that was the most clear and complete footage of a dragstrip crash I have ever seen. Glad that you didn't get hurt.

[@shawng7902]

She is as tough as a person can be for sure. You literally hit hard enough to blow the fkn windshield through the seal. Those 2 pinball hits were brutal.

Hope for a speedy recovery , and start building another one 💪🏼

Thank you!

Watching this accident multiple times had me heartbroken. Wow glad u ok. That was brutal from every angle. The Maverick was definitely built for safety. It seem like it was on a killer pass.

It really was, that pass was going to be killer 😩

Found your channel from "old man" (lol... he's younger than me) SRC Garage Bills post on his channel about meeting you. I was at the track that day and had admired your car in the pits (I have a soft spot for old Mavericks) and was crushed when I watched your wreck unfold and was so relieved that you were ok. You have a new fan of your channel and look forward to watching you as you go forward.

Fyi get the system so your head is strapped to the seat you still have enough slack to move around but then it prevents whip lash or at the very least get a neck brace

[@richardgoldschrafe4747]

That was a pretty big hit. Watching it gives me some things to look harder at in future builds. Few observations that concern me. I'm glad there was no fire, But sad the car is hurt that badly. Glad to see you walk away.

[@k.b.8912]

Thought the rear end broke again but you can hear the rpm’s bump briefly before the turn and I saw in the comments the drive shaft speed also bumped, so if the rear end was still good it was all tire spin from so much sauce on the top end, such a cool car, glad no one was hurt.

[@turbofreek]

sure hope its fixable. loved seeing it run and didnt even realize a female was piloting that monster. hope you are alright and make full recovery if you got hurt. wanna see this thing run more in the future. best of luck.

Parachutes they are a pain in the ass to pack. But when you get in the habit of using them. They will save you in more ways than you can count. Kinda like when someone grabs you by the shirt collar and it pulls you backwards. It straightens you out every time. Good thing you won’t hurt. You were very calm surprisingly. Not the first bad word even at the oh shit moment. Definitely was on a good pass.

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

I keep kicking myself because I had a parachute and launcher ready to go on, but just ran out of time before the race. Figured it wasn’t too big of a deal since the track in Vegas is so long. Oh boy was I wrong.
