- In 1994, the Daytona 500 was overshadowed by terrible crashes, unusual story lines, and a pair of tragedies. The week leading up to the race was one of the most dramatic in NASCAR history. Much like Formula One's tragic weekend at San Marino three months later, the 1994 Daytona 500 was hard on everyone. Presenting a recap of the Toughest Daytona 500.

Man, Ken Squier, Bob Jenkins, Paul Page, Ned Jarrett, Benny Parsons, we sure were spoiled in the 90s with our TV announcers.
What do you mean?
@@mikeyeden5791 They were all so good at what they did.
@@stephenhuntsucker3766 Thanks for your reply! Sorry I wasn't exactly sure what you meant.
Chris Economaki, Dick Berggren, Dave Despain, Jack Arute, Barney Hall and also late 90's came Allen Bestwick,sadly, the man who told us first that Dale Earnhardt has died.
Neil Bonnett was also a great announcer. If he’d stayed in the booth he’d probably have been considered the best of all time.
Hearing Dale Sr say "Neil's car hit the wall just right, Rodney Orr's car hit the wall just right. It's a bad deal and nobody can change it", it still breaks my heart.
TR Chiggs Neil was one of Dale Sr’s best friends, and he was hit hard by his death.
@TR Chiggs Seven years after the '94 speedweeks, his own car ended up hitting the wall "just right", that's the point of the comment
@- Defianc3 its a southern mannerism. The word right isnt always used for its meaning within the structures of our down home speaking. Example thats the awfullust car ive ever seen, awful meaning the opposite of its meaning. More or lease the best. I know its confusing
@@jeremywall7206 I think that Marv was referring to the fact of SR's comments and than his accident in 2001.
You couldn't hear a dump truck driving through a nitroglycerin plant.
1960-1966 & 1992-2001 were the most dangerous times in NASCAR history.
1960-66: 11 drivers were killed
1992-2001: 15 drivers were killed
Hans wasn't mandatory till 2002
Terrible year for motorsports. Losing Bonnett and Orr at Daytona, months before losing Ratzenberger and Senna at Imola. RIP
Very true
Bill Wagner 94 was the worst year for racing
@@albertjones6176 Robbie Stanley (3-time USAC Sprint Car Champion) was also killed in a crash at Winchester that year.
94 was the year Ernie Irvan suffered a major crash as well.
Also, Karl Wendlinger suffered severe crash at Monaco, which became, apparently, his career end in F1, he's never regained his speed in open wheels
I was a little kid in 1994. I remember where I was when I was told about Neil Bonnett. My friend's father was a track paramedic at Daytona. I was with my friend that day and I remember his father coming home afterward and was pretty upset.
Rusty Wallace sounded like he was giving a speech to a group of soldiers during that speech
I agree. Rusty said cars just don't go in the Grand stands by themselves. Well, Bobby Allison blew a crankshaft and blew the right rear tire. The harmonic balancer hit Darrell's Tide windshield.
@@buddywilliams5650 That was years earlier and at a faster speed.
@@buddywilliams5650 Obviously mechanical failures happen, but that wasn't what he meant.
@@bbigjohnson069 I know what race it was and the year. My dad had the races on every Sunday.
@@eins2001 I know kid.
Shame to lose Neil Bonnett. He was one of those guys that could get a Non NASCAR fan into liking it real quick just by the way he talked. He had a great way of getting you hooked into racing.
"so use your damn heads please" is the best closing line for a speech
Man I heard names I haven't heard in 20 years.
RIP to all the drivers that have died chasing the checkers.
Your loss will never be forgotten.
"With 69 cars attempting to qualify..."

To add some additional context the CBS crew also lost another team member the same day as Neil. "Captain" Jack Foster, who had been around seemingly forever, had a heart attack that morning. Added to the on-track tragedies, that was an unbelievably tough week for the tv crew. Of course Neil was a member of that family as well.

Holy hell I’d never seen that ARCA crash. That’s insane he destroyed the wall
How Andy Farr didn't die is amazing, his car once it got air looked like a missile at ground level hitting the wall head on. Cracked sternum and bruised heart only injuries is amazing
So much grim irony here
Bonnet had been cheating death for too long
and Orr had switched to Nascar to be safer
And Earnhardt saying they hit the wall at just the right angle
Excellent video. I had no idea Jimmy Means' decision to retire was tied to this speedweeks. After seeing his friend J.D. McDuffie pass, it's not surprising that all the tragedies in NASCAR finally convinced him to walk away.
Smut. Hometown hero from where I'm from.
That rusty Wallace speech is stuff of legend.
This was before the safer barrier, boys. No HANs. Just you, the machine, and the concrete.
@Clarence Hamm You're an idiot.
@Clarence Hamm yes! I personally love seeing all of my personal racing heroes die because of inadequate safety measures.
@Clarence Hamm You're what's wrong with the motorsport community. Seriously, I hate when people try to argue that "Oh, racing was better when it was more dangerous." And I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to explain to your kid that Dale Earnhardt "retired" right after the '01 Daytona 500. All racing is "real" racing if it carries with it the spirit of racing, the adrenaline and all that comes with it. Everyone thinks that a sport is just fine when it comes to safety until someone dies.
@@GoredonTheDestroyer it's like saying "Damn, life was better when we were in a world war"
And Death always riding shotgun. The only thing I don't miss about those days. Alan, Davey, Neil, Adam, Dale. I want those guys back.
Damn hearing Dale say " its a bad deal cant no body change it." Is haunting because he would lose his life in the same manner. I do find comfort in the fact that he died doing what he loved.
Dale saying: "they hit the wall just right"
My heart
That winter of '94 was terrible, and I remember it like it was yesterday. It's hard to believe today is 25 years since Neil Bonnett left us. I even remember the project I was working on in the shop when we heard the news on the radio.
What were you working on
I was working on building Silver Lakes golf course in Gadsden when Davey died at Talladega the year before. Mickey Gibbs lived there on the course when it happened, and I saw him speed out of his driveway headed to Birmingham (I think) to the hospital. To me, it's like remembering where I was when 911 happened. It was unfortunate times in nascar. Later on I worked with Orr's nephew and other relatives in Florida.
My ex wife was pregnant with our second and I opened the newspaper.Headline;May Day!May Day! And Ayrtons car was hitting the wall.
And now she is dying of cancer in the hospital
@@lilstinky6323 I was building a MIG welding cart the day Neil Bonnett had his crash. When Davey Allison had his helicopter crash about seven months earlier, I was making a fiberglass air dam for a truck, and again heard it on the news. When Alan Kulwicki's plane crash happened, I didn't hear about it until the next morning, but I DO remember that at the time of the crash (about 8:45 PM on April 1, 1993) I was reading an article about F1 champion Jim Clark in Racer Magazine and just happened to check the time for whatever reason. It's strange how you remember details like that.
Ernie Irvan was very close to be another fatality. He had a 10% chance of survival.
Ernie was my family's favorite driver as he was friends with my dad's boss at the time (My dad had met him and thought he was awesome so rooted for him). I was on the other side of the country visiting my gram and about to leave to return home when my gram heard on the radio about his crash. I felt so awful I couldnt sleep that night.
That he survived and came back was amazing. I have a trading card where they captured him and Dale Jarrett side by side in matching cars, which I thought was just awesome
Must have been a curse? I Guess... what you think?
1994 was a tragic year for motorsports with the deaths of Rodney Orr and Neil Bonnet at Daytona and the deaths of Roland Ratzenburger and Ayrton Senna in Imola, Italy. Also the 1994 NASCAR Winston Cup Season was the first to mandate the use of Roof Flaps.
Earnhardt didn't like it when Jerry Punch brought up his Dad in that post race interview. Earnhardt was that old fashioned southern man that, come hell or high water, did not want to face his emotions. So when somebody else unexpectedly brings up the subject on national television and he was forced to say something he clearly looked annoyed.
@Russell Coleman That's exactly why Dale was a 7-Time Winston Cup Champion. It's exactly why Dale Jr has 14 Most Popular Driver awards and no Cup Championships. I like Dale Jr, but racing isn't about friends. It's all about trophies and titles.
@@Ghostmotorfinger I mean Dale Jr.'s biggest obstacle to winning a championship seemed to be concussions. I don't think he ever would've tied his dad but he might have gotten one
@@theDENIMMAN Junior has also admitted he was more concerned with partying and having fun. He said in an interview that he only gave about 80% when he first started out in the Cup series and didn't really get serious about racing until he landed at HMS.
@@Ghostmotorfinger how did petty and johnson also won 7 then?
Jerry Punch the track reporter is kinda annoying.
Jerry Punch the doctor is kinda a hero
"It's a bad deal, can't nobody change it"
Might be the most ironic statement in all of motorsports
What Earnhardt said right before that was even more ironic. "Neil hit the wall just right. Rodney hit the wall just right." Some years later, Dale would hit the wall just right.
jlimbac0 Andy Farr almost hit the wall just right
JustJordann true, when you see the video of Farr’s crash it’s amazing there weren’t three fatalities that month
Prolly would have been a different outcome if DE's belts were mounted correctly & had a full face helmet on.
@@jasonrobertsutliff dale refused a hans device as the were optional at the time and died from the exact injury hans was designed to stop
His comment about it in a drivers meeting just prior was "that thing looks like a noose, I like how I have my shit rigged" incredibly ironic and equally as tragic, Neil died from the same neck fracture, and so did anton senna, however Sennas steering column snapping is what sent him into the wall to begin with.
When someone says “racing isn’t what it used to be, we miss the old days of racing.” Show them this
I'm very doubtful that people are complaining about the way the walls look or that drivers are required to wear HANS devices. The change to using SAFER barriers and proper restraints is what made racing relatively safe in the wake of the deaths of people like Adam Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Rodney Orr, Neil Bonnett, and the injuries of those like Ernie Irvin.
@@Seethenhagen dont forget Kenny Irwin was also lost, used to drive the 98 truck.
It's not the same. Cars look like shit and the paint schemes suck these days.
I've been watching NASCAR since 1999, read and studied NASCAR history books and watched tons of races on ESPN Classic and SPEED. And these videos bring out so much more details that you don't always catch or remember. Thanks for putting all this together
It seems like God kept telling Neil to stop racing but Neil didn't listen, racing was too much in his blood.
I never knew Sterling got a Earnhardt style pit road congrats from the other teams. Spectacular video, sir.
It was his first Cup series win period, so doesn’t really surprise me.
D.W. did a great job doing the show “Winners” after Neil’s passing.
Damn, who would have thought those same words Dale Spoke in this video would also apply to him to the letter a few years later. “Neil’s car hit the wall just right.” “Rodney Orr’s car hit the wall just right.” Prophetic
And if Neil or Dale had been wearing the Hans device they would have survived.
Geoffrey Holland had Dale not been wearing an open face helment he'd probably have survived. But if the rumors of him loosening his belts with few laps to go so he could move around in the seat and see better are true then nothing would've saved him. He was rumored to have loosened his belts at the end of races for years.
@@geoffreyholland328 sadly they weren’t using it then
@@mesquitegirl2013 but it was arround by the time dale died
@@mesquitegirl2013 incorrect. Just because they were not mandatory does not mean they were not used.
1994 was the year o started hating Gordon but after like 8 years of blind hate for a very skilled man I started to appreciate a person like him.
If those fatal crashes didn’t get into those drivers heads, Rusty’s speech definitely did.
Yeah he had 2 terrible crashes the year before at Daytona and Talladega. The second one broke his wrist but other than that he was relatively unhurt fortunately.
Major respect to Wallace for doing that
You're correct Rusty's speech got in their heads but it went out the window for most of them following those 4 famous words drivers start your engines
No offense ... but you are clueless. That speech didn't do anything. Most of those guys were sitting there thinking: "Hello Pot ... Meet Kettle" ... Rusty had wrecked more cars/drivers than a drunk driver at a County Fair Demo Derby. It was all for show--and dimes to dollars -- NASCAR asked him to make the speech. Or he did it to try to mess with his competitors. None of those drivers gave a damn about Rusty said. They already knew what they were in for. Watching Bonnett and Orr die was enough. Rusty didn't need to say anything after that.
@@jeremyfisher8782 Huh? Like him or not, I always thought Rusty was a great spokesperson for the sport as a whole. That's why he was up there making a speech. He was at the time one of the veteran drivers and he never bullshitted about anything and just told it like it was. Sorry if you or anyone else can't accept that.
I had forgotten Tony Eury, most famous for being Dale Earnhardt Jrs crew chief in his first years in Winston Cup and Dale Earnhardt's Busch Grand National Series Car, was Neil Bonnetts crew chief in the 51 car. Also from what I hear, Andy Farr's wreck looked very similar to Rodney Orr's crash. Rodney's crash was just at a higher speed.
JR said recently that he regretted ever leaving the Eurys.
@18:43 "Neil's car hit the wall just right. Rodney Orr's car hit the wall just right..."
... Dale's car hit the wall just right. Definitely a bad deal.
A lot of cars hit the wall just right.
I remember seeing the autopsy photos of NB and RO, both accidents were very tragic but RO was the most terrifying thank God those pictures aren't available online any longer
Thats an eerie piece of sound bite from Dale Sr.He said both of those guys car hit the wall just right.Crazy his car hit the wall just right at the same track 7 years later.
I was there for Speedweeks 93 & 94, great video. It brought back some great memories and very sad ones too. Never forget the ones we lost.
1994 was a tough year for motorsport Worldwide, two fatalities in F1, two in this one event, numerous big accidents and incidents of drivers getting hurt
Noticed something humorous towards the end when Sterling Marlin was about to take his cap off in Victory Lane before deciding against it (must have been worrying about dislodging his rug)
Thank you for this. I think sometimes we forget just how dangerous this sport is. Thank God for all the safety innovations since Earnhardt's death in 2001. I didn't become a fan until 1997 so I have no memories of the 1994 season but this was a great mini documentary.
This is a really good video it should be aired on T.V. It really shows how everything went down in detail.
I was 10 years old in 1994. I was (still am and always will be) a huge Rusty Wallace fan and had been for a few years before 1994. You could always tell that Rusty was never comfortable in these races and that's why he never really had much success at them. His speech shows a lot of that. It's a shame because poor showings at restrictor plate races did cost him a championship or two.
The more I watch old races, the more I realize those cars were like literal soapboxes. As cool as they may have seemed, they clearly had some serious handling issues. It's so crazy to see that in hindsight, how those cars would slide and skid for meters on end over almost nothing.
The respect I have for all those NASCAR guys from the '90s - Schrader, Wallace, Earnhardt Sr., Rudd, and all the other race drivers like we don't see anymore, even though I respect today's drivers too, but the old ones were true badasses.
i want to thank you especially; your video is absolutely fascinating. I'm so glad I was able to understand so many details about that NASCAR era. Thank you very much
If Rusty’s accomplishments hadn’t got him in the Hall of Fame, that speech alone probably should have.
Amazing at the amount of fans attending the ARCA race then vs. the amount of fans attending Cup races now....wow!
ARCA was big time after Busch back then. CTS didn't exist as of yet.
Amazing video. Never stop making these long videos about the interesting history of NASCAR. I could watch these all day!
I missed Brock’s voice, I’m glad to hear it again
I think he's planning to do a starting grid video this weekend too
Losing Neil Bonnett was a huge gut punch for Dale Sr. who at one point was over heard saying
" I'll be in one of those soon enough..." referring to a coffin. Those crashes in 93 and 94 were among the most horrific in all modern motor sports. Like Rusty said, " I"ll bet everyone in this room is running a little scared..." He heard no objections to his comment. That's saying a lot considering who was sitting in that drivers meeting. Some of the toughest most bad ass drivers ever to run Nascar. I miss Sr. every day though. And the rest of them also for sure. I have a stuffy #3 car on my dash that I won in one of those claw machines. It's covered in poppies. But that's another story.
Fantastic piece that reminds us how tough Daytona really is. Thanks, Brock.
Tire wars always cause safety issues in any form of motorsport.
Safety was one of the major reasons why the FIA allowed Michelin to withdraw from formula one a year before their contract was due to be up after the farce that was the 2005 us gp at indianpolis that was caused by tire safety issues that couldn't be resolved
Neither of these wrecks had anything to do with tires. They were both caused by broken shock mounts.
Thank you!! I learned a ton and this is so well done. Emotional the whole way through. Put racing into perspective.
Rusty is a hypocritical idiot
@@jamesgentry13 Wallace? I know 😂
@@rustywalrus Walrus? Spits straight facts.
Rusty Walrus is the toughest Daytona ever 1994 Daytona 500 Hoosier tire was ban cause of deadly crash occurred
Great job with this documentary . Definitely a sad start to the season, but my guy finally wins his first race.
This was really good! Didn’t know about the other deaths aside from Neil, and the car flipping into Lake Lloyd. I was born in 1993.
I love these videos.
I tell you one thing, MMM (Morgan McClure Motorsports) and they #4 Kodak Chevrolet, was strong at the restrictor plate races with Ernie Irvan, but when they showed up in Daytona in 1994, with Sterling Marlin and with a different design of exhaust headers that made the car sound like a Indy car compared to everyone else's cars, but once that 4 car got out front, he could stay out front by two car lengths and they couldn't close up on him unless they all worked together perfectly. It wasn't until 1996 when rcr and Hendrick were able to close the gap between there 4 car and the field at the plate tracks but Marlin was still tough to beat at Daytona and Talladega.
RCR was king of the two big tracks in the 90s. That #4 was fast as hell but Marlin ain't Earnhardt.
Amazing video. Really puts the entire week into perspective.
Absolutely fantastic video. So many memories there, both good and bad. The fact that you found Andy Farr's wreck is impressive alone. My neighbor (back then) was there at the track all week and in a call back home to me he swore he watched a man die that day.
Dale saying that both drivers who died "hit the wall just right" is damn creepy... Because his car hit the wall just right too.
Except hitting the wall just right, actually meant just wrong.
RIP Neil... Rodney... And Dale
Excellent piece of history. Fans not old enough to remember need to watch. I remember this like yesterday
This is great thanks. I would love to travel one day to United States Of America and watch a NASCAR race..
Martin McFly highly recommend it!!!
This was awesome!! Such a tragic week, with a tremendous finish.
You guys are doing great work on these videos. I hope to see many more.
The roof flaps were (and are) nothing but a good thing. As I recall, Jack Roush came up with the idea.
In 1994, there was no SAFER barrier (we can thank Tony George for funding its development), no HANS device (Dr. Robert Hubbard, made possible by Jim Downing), and no truly safety-oriented seats (Randy LaJoie deserves tons of credit for his contributions). Also, NASCAR did absolutely no safety testing of the cars. Its policy was to put responsibility on the teams, preferring to avoid potential liabilities.
The death of Dale Earnhardt changed NASCAR's approach; they took total control of all aspects of safety. They tested cars, they required HANS devices, they deployed SAFER barriers, they required better seats, and made a whole bunch of other new rules related to safety. At the time, I was the Purchasing Manager for Racer Wholesale, and the Production Manager for G-FORCE Racing Gear, and found myself in the middle of it all.
Excellent mini doc, really kept my attention the whole time. Very well made
Wow. This was before my time, but I've always heard of this speedweeks and the turmoil and tragedy. This was an interesting and informative watch.
In Tennessee we had a bad ice storm and saw none of what happened. Heard it on a battery radio. Had no electric for 39 days. I watched winners every week and loved Neil Bonnet. Was one of a few other years 2000 and 2001. Thank you for doing this.
Great video. I miss ole Neil. Crazy it’s been 25 years.
1994 did have a lot of hype leading up to Daytona. If you were a diehard fan you just couldn't wait for that entire week to begin. Then all of the drama and tragedies happened. Very profound.
Man I miss Benny Parsons he was in my opinion the greatest Nascar broadcaster for T.V ever.Bernie was the greatest Track guy but man starting in 2007 when he was gone nobody has taken his place.
So grateful for this video. I started watching only a few years after so I completely missed this era and knew this information but didn’t KNOW the details or context. Awesome!!!
Rusty Wallace's speech was incredible. The passion he had...bravo 👏👏
Very informative video. Never knew how tragic that year's Speedweeks was, and I never knew that was the last time that many drivers attempted the 500.
Tremendous job!!!! Amazing video, thanks for all the work put into this!!!
Man this was a hell of a video. Nascar was reeling back then the roof flaps I think saved the sport from doing something drastic people forget what a brutal sport it was then.
It is so amazing how far NASCAR has come as far as safety is concerned. That is the one positive thing that can be said about NASCAR as a company.
I was a big fan of Bonnet and I never missed an episode of "Winners" on TNN. I remember arriving in Daytona 2 days after Orr was killed. It rained so much that we assumed the 125's would be postponed and it was just a coincidence that we were driving by the track 15 minutes before the start. We got in our seats just as they took the green for the first one. Three minutes after the checkered on the second one the rain began to pour and that is the way the rest of the week went weather wise. The rain would stop just before each race. I also remember that Earnhardt won everything he was in but the 500.The image of that car flipping into Lake Lloyd has stayed with me. I remember talking to a man that said he had never missed a Daytona 500 race. I got to meet Smokey Unick briefly over at a small museum. I went back the next year but I haven't returned since. I think Ned is the best announcer ever, but I am prejudiced. He drove a couple races for my dad back when he first started and I visited his shop ca 1961. Glad I stumbled on this video.
I remember watching the 94 500 I was 5 and didn't know the importance of the race have been a fan of Rusty since birth 2 was always my favorite number... Nascar needs more drivers like him for Earnhardt to shake his head yes the hole time and Schrader to also speak up shows these younger guys need veterans around to speak and show them the way... Leaves me in tears the way we lost good valuable drivers back in the day good video when my kids get older I will show them this to in lighten them on how Nascar got it's safer features
And then came 2000 too Dale Earnhardt 4 drivers in one year its hard understand why these things happen in a series like that but thank god lessons were learned and changes were made but in in 1994 till today I still dont that has fully been understood but thank god for the safety today. That being said u cant ever let your guard down this is a very good video thank you for your work and content
Awesome job guys! Loved every minute of it. What a wild speedweeks
Outstanding job putting this all together. Thank yoU!!!
Man that was a great video! More of an F1 fan but my interest for Nascar started some time ago and more and more since last year. Subscribed to keep watching this content!
You should watch Nascar regularly.
Isn't at its best years but still Very good
Wow this whole video was phenomenal, I never knew the story behind the 1994 speedweeks
This was a well put together documentary. Thoroughly enjoyed!
1994 had to be one of the hardest seasons in all of NASCAR history. Not only was there the events of Speedweeks, but later that year Ernie Irvan was nearly killed in a crash at Michigan. The sport is very lucky that it had the rise of Jeff Gordon and his rivalry with Dale Earnhardt to keep people invested after all that tragedy.
NASCAR needs more of this stuff on UA-cam. Racing fans as a whole should watch this.
Great video! It's crazy how far safety measures have come. This video really puts that into perspective.
Dammit I loved these drivers. Those drivers were superhuman. Broke my heart every time we lost one.
Love these mini docs. Always do a fantastic job NASCARMan.
As a fan of the sport growing up in the 2000s there's alot of these dark times of nascar I dont know a whole lot about. Would love to see more made
It's eerie to hear Dale talking about people dying the same way and at the same place he will die at in 7 years.
That's some of the best footage I've seen of Neil's crash. Thank you.
Great job editing & making this piece. Thanks for the hard work! Makes my day at at work a lot better lol
Awesome video!!! Loved it. Brought back a lot of memories for me.
Very very well put together video. Managing to get all of the footage and put it together and documenting it so well. Great job all around.
Great job on this video! God Bless all of the racers who have passed on the track.
I've gotta save this video for later. Because I can tell it's gonna be a good one.
Damn, I sure do miss the IROC races
69 cars to attempt the 1994 race? My goodness...
And now days they can only get 40 cars
@@daniellongworth7513 less cars isn't better
@@jamesgentry13 Quality over quantity buddy. 30 of those 69 cars in 1994 were complete and utter shitpiles and were probably put together in the back of a barn.
@@daniellongworth7513 the sport now is at it's worst. Less cars less sponsors
as he said, a solid third are shitboxes made in the back of fucking barns, dipshit
So I take it that Orr had the same kind of crash that Andy Farr had in the Arca car but instead hitting with the front first he hit roof first into the wall?
was never a Rusty Wallace fan but i respect that talk he gave at the drivers meeting!
Great video! I've never seen the Andy Farr accident before & wow, how did he 'walk away' from that crash!?
The Peter Paul, John Thomas and Edward Edwards showdown was my most memorable highlight.
