Mustang Drag Car Wheelie - Action!!

The first Friday of the month, Milan Dragway outside Detroit holds its Heads Up racing program. With all the cars set on kill, it wasn't a surprise to see Jason Lee's Mustang passing the Tree with the front wheels climbing. He was on the bumper 300 feet out when he started getting too close to the wall. With nothing to see but blue sky, Jason stayed on the gas hoping to come down straight. When he finally did, the car bounced into the wall and ground to a halt at the 1,000-foot mark. When he got to the pit, he was wondering if anyone got the shot. Exactly one month later, Jason and his crew got the car ready for the next Heads Up race. When Jason did his trademark 300-foot burnout, the crowd got to its feet. Most of them had been at the last race and knew what Jason was capable of. When he launched his Mustang, the front end was rising at a steady rate when he passed the Tree. At 150 feet out, he was riding the bumper exactly like before. There was a collective gasp as Jason's Mustang came down inches from the wall at about the same spot he hit the time before. This time the landing was clean. Jason's bumper ride put the crowd in a great mood for the rest of that night's action.
