Mark Niver, thirty-year veteran of Top Alchol Dragster racing, lost his life at the NHRA Northwest Nationals at the Seattle International Raceway, formerly known as Pacific Raceways, in Kent, Washington, United States.

It happened on Sunday, 11 July 2010. After crossing the finish line Niver deployed his dragster's parachute but the chute was ripped from the car, sending it into the catch netting at the end of the shutdown area with enough force to buckle the cars chassis back into the drivers cockpit. Niver was pronounced dead at the scene.
