Abilene to review high-speed crash involving driver reaching 234 mph
Following a fatal crash at high speeds reaching 234 mph in Abilene, Texas, the question remains: Will the high-speed race at Abilene Regional Airport continue? Abilene Transportation Director Don Green has shared details of the tragic accident which resulted in the death of a Colorado man who had already clinched victory in his category and wanted to attempt one more run. Green reported that the accident, during which the car flipped multiple times off the runway, is under investigation for its cause. Despite this unfortunate incident, the company responsible for the event has maintained an impeccable safety record over the past 14 years, with not even a broken finger occurring previously. Abilene serves as the final destination of the race season and is a beloved stop for drivers. The next steps include Green meeting with the Abilene City Manager to review the future of the Airstrip Attack event.
