The famous drag racer, Neal Parker, got killed during a drag racing event on the race track that was situated in his home town. Parker was fifty eight years old when his life ended. He drove the car named “Top Alcohol Funny Car”. The dreaded disaster regarding the drag racer is the second fatal accident at the NHA event on the raceway of English town during a period of two years. Before this accident, another race driver lost his life during the same event in 2008. In 2008, on the 21st of June, the drag racing champion Scott Kalitta took his last breaths at the Township Raceway Park after going through a fatal accident.
Neal Parker’s life and his career ended on last Friday. Parker was racing for the qualification round when his car crashed at the end of the raceway and killed him. The drag race began normally; as the race progressed the spectators were unaware of the terrible catastrophe that awaited the driver of the Top Alcohol Funny Car. At the finishing moments of the drag race, the parachute that was required to stop the drag racing machine did not deploy from the rear end of the car. Resultantly, the car slammed into the closing region of the track and caught fire right away. According to witnesses, Neal Parker lost control over his car. At the time of collision the car was moving at a great speed so the horrid fate of the driver was inevitable.
Following the accident, NHRA released a statement to the press in which the unfortunate news regarding the death of Neal Parker was announced.
