If that makes you sad, do NOT click here!
I think that the blue Z slammed on his brakes, making the front nose dive and then slid under the Ford. That is more probible than the Ford backing over the Z. He wouldn't have enough speed to make it up there. Blue Z in the middle was in Portland, in a rollover. The last Z was in Idaho. He must have hit a brick wall! :-(

sorry, for the sad pictures...
