The infamous, 2002 Top Fuel burndown between Doug Herbert and Clay Millican at Maple Grove Raceway sparked a rivalry that earned Herbert his ‘Dougzilla’ nickname.
Although the two Top Fuel veterans had each personally put the incident behind them over the past seven years, an opportunity to create new public service announcements for B.R.A.K.E.S. brought them together to bury the hatchet for a good cause....
The venture resulted in these videos, a 30-second and 60-second PSA, as well as a seven-minute ‘webisode’ that features both drivers discussing the notorious staging battle. The videos were several months in the making and were an inspiring project for all involved.

I feel so bad for Doug. His poor boys might have survived had they not hit the asshole driving the massive shotbox gas guzzling Hummer.
Bet he feels good about driving the most idiotic vehicle you can buy. "I'm an insecure prick who needs a huge vehicle to be important and be safe in a crash, but it's ok if other people hit me and get hurt or die". Makes me sick.
