Dad Reflexes: Mike Jone’s father runs onto the circuit and pulls him out of a burning race car, dives back in a second time to allegedly erase his son’s web history on his iPhone. Legend!
One of the most dangerous things that can happen on a race track is to have a car catch on fire. Not only does it put the driver in peril, but it hinders the rescue crew from getting close to the vehicle to save the driver. So, when some racing action left Mike Jones wrecked in the middle of the track with fire spewing from the engine bay, his father, Dean, did what any parent would – he hopped the pit wall, ran to his son’s burning car, and helped pull him from the wreckage.
