Apparently the people involved dont want this info public on CHP and ask for it to be removed. Rightfully so.

This thread will get deleted too and this will continue to be a big elephant in the room on this site.

Instead of deleting it, how about leave it and everyone can show support for everyone involved. It's a rough time for both sides of the accident I am sure.

It was a freak, sad accident, but it was still an accident. I feel bad for Barry's family and also Tara and her family. This is a time for friends and family to show support and help everyone involved get through it. This is already public information on every other site- so of ALL sites, CHP should be the one to show some support for Tara.

There is no need to sweep it under the rug. It was an accident. Barry was a good man and will be missed and may he rest in peace.

I agree. My prayers go out to everyone involved, the CHP family will support the members here, no reason to delete this thread.

If anybody involved needs anything I will be happy to do it.

This could be why they dont want any second hand info being posted on a local website. Just saying.

DORCHESTER COUNTY, SC (WCSC) -

A North Charleston man was killed late Sunday night after his car flipped over on a drag strip in Dorchester County, pinning him inside.

The accident happened around 10 p.m. at the Dorchester Drag Strip near Ridgeville, off Highway 78. The race came to a stop while paramedics rushed to help the driver, a 40-year-old North Charleston man.

The Dorchester County Sheriff's Office is investigating the accident, but say no charges will be filed.

I believe that is standard procedure in a death. Everyone knows it was an accident.

Keep your head up Tara.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all involved. This was an accident. I know this has to be very hard for everyone involved to deal with. The CHP Family will come together and show their support for those involved.

Was Barry a member on here or go to any of the local events? Not sure if I knew him or not.

I would have preferred for this thread to stay on CHP rather than having a bunch of idiots on YB that don't know anyone involved throwing in their two cents.

It is indeed a very sad time. I was there but was getting the car ready for a nitrous pass when the accident occured. I spoke to Tara afterwards before I knew of the fatality. All family's involved will be in our prayers. We will continue to show our support for those affected by this.
