yeah

jimmy johnson say is ... leading the race ... until the accident on the outskirts "sierra la giganta" of Loreto

Lightning rods are bad *ss

From the looks of that truck Jimmy Johnson is lucky to be alive. Once a bar gets kinked like that it cannot take another hit. the next hit would have taken Jimmy out!!!

I was told Jimmie liked to wreck in Baja, I guess thats proof. I could see this is one example of why he got in to Nascar,well...... that and the money!! I wonder if he renamed it "sierra la giganta wrecka "

 

[michael_loomis]

Is this the wreck that left Jimmie stranded all night?

Crazy pics, thanks for posting!

Wow that is the definition of wadded up!

I bet he saw his life flash before his eyes in that wreck!! I herd something about stranded all night, then a long day at an air strip waiting to fly out and that was it!! Someone should of told him, he's got to get back on the horse though.I wonder if he will EVER get back on that horse???? That would be awsome!!!!

Great post , Read "The end of an era" post . It fits well with this one as it shows the life of this truck after the crash, and its return back to Jimmy . We all have heard about this crash but I have never seen pictures. Rock- 1 Jimmy - 0

Maybe choosing a career going in circles at 200 mph was wise move for Jimmie after all.
