Description

Watch a racing trike recover from a wild throttle malfunction to post a 3.168 second run. See how the crew saved the day. This footage from 2016 captures a dramatic moment when a specialized build veered off the track and into a pond after a mechanical failure. What looked like a total loss for the team quickly turned into a recovery mission, as the crew performed final checks to get the vehicle back in action. Despite the initial trike crash, the rider managed to get back on the strip and clock a competitive time. This clip serves as a look at the unpredictable nature of drag racing, where even a disaster can be followed by a successful pass. Subscribe for more extreme drag racing action and custom build breakdowns.
