That was by far the best bus race I have watched..Loved the drone...Congrats to Gary for his historical last win on the now retired #66 bus..Man I'm gonna miss this....YourFavCanFan
Awesome! I sort of thought the figure 8 school bus race was supposed to be like the trailer races or demolition derby. Anyway, great job and I hope the speedway gets saved or you guys can find a different place. TY.
unbelievable the c2s are already getting demo derbied they were brand new when I first started school and they came out in 2004 lol I feel way too old now
@@DaPlenThing The Thomas C2 is here to stay for quite some time. It's the most aerodynamically advantaged bus in the United States that is available for purchase and assembly within a year's time. Districts love them and they will keep fixing them just as they did the old Blue Bird SBCV's.
@@UahUahUah I install 2 way radios on these busses brand new is another reason it's so crazy to see it in a demo derby but I bet the electronics are why this one failed so early in the figure 8, poor thing would have won had it not been electronically challenged
Yes they do, it's called Bangers. Busses or cars run a race where almost anything is permitted to try to be the last vehicle running. Videos available streaming.
Weird coming across this on my UA-cam after having lived within a short drive of the speedway since I was a kid. So sad that it’s closing. There’s already not much for adults to do for fun in the area.
Those school buses are more like military soldiers are marching to war pace truck is the master sergeant so awesome 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Wow the crowd is loving this and so am I.
Pretty accurate representation of the student parking at 3:02 PM
This is actual footage of what it was like riding a bus to school in the 80s
And the 90's! haha
or in Rockford today
Can confirm
Driver smoking a cigarette?
I could see Jeremy Clarkson in one of those busses!
I have no idea what they're saying, but I'm Japanese and I understand why they're so excited.
"That's my expert commentary for this race: WHOA" : 11:28
I'm American, and that's the same way I feel when I hear someone speaking Japanese.. 😂
Me too, greets from Germany

Black Bus got screwed. He ran away with this thing and the 66 never got close.
nothin' but some pure American fun right here..! 🏁 Scary Gary is legendary.
He's a real live wire ain't he😂😂
@@cappbizzness4139no doubt😂😂
I didn't know school bus racing was a thing but man this was great to watch!
damn, knowing rockford is closing just as drone footage is beginning to be a thing...
gfegefghgdgejwh
“SCOOTER KNOCKED THE TOILET OVER, ALRIGHT!” - things I didn’t think I’d hear but didn’t know I needed to hear.
I laughed. Something I would want to do.
Going to miss very much watching videos from The Rockford. 😢 Things will never be like the old world.
Never have I needed something so badly and not known it existed. This is incredible.
You need to see the Australian semi truck racing circuit ...
Drone footage is just perfect for events like this lol!
they need to do this with kids in the busses
best afterschool activity
New form of detention 😂😂😂
depending on how it ends probably their last afterschool activity
@@kolynreinhart4987😂😂😂
Sri Lankans do
Thank you UA-cam algorithm for showing me this!😃👍
7:00
Driver A: gets out of bus to check on driver of flipped bus
Driver B: gets out of bus to take photo of his bus
Somebody please save the speedway 😢
Same 😢😢
We tried but we couldn’t
You should have bought it
Sorry, but we had to make room for B*den's voters (illegal immigrants and Pro-p@lestinian supp@rters).
Try harder.
This is the first time I have ever seen school buses racing. Awesome 😊
This Is literally Wreckfest!! 😂😂 Dope
It's not Wreckfest unless at least one of them is going the wrong way 😂
@@IndiBrony And one guy is purposely blocking the middle
Literally what I thought when I saw the thumbnail lmao
lol Wreckfest is literally this
america still has a few redeeming qualities
Had, Rockfords closing
This is wild! Only in a Figure 8 race would you see school buses crashing like this. Pure chaos, but so fun to watch!
"Now I see why you people like this" XD Love this commentator
5:03
I grew up in Rockford. Nice to see it cranking out culture still. Good stuff thanks!
For sale: 1 slightly used schoolbus. Ran when parked. $28,000. I know what I got.
😂
I used to live in machesney park. I miss going there with my wife. Had a lot of hemi size beers there while cheering on the spec drags.
I wish the speedway was still open I loved going to events like this
You know you're in for it when the pace car is a tow truck.
Awesome! I sort of thought the figure 8 school bus race was supposed to be like the trailer races or demolition derby. Anyway, great job and I hope the speedway gets saved or you guys can find a different place. TY.
If they bothered to use their indicators and signal their intentions, there would be fewer accidents.
please excuse your dumb@ss from us
Pretty sure the purpose of this is for there to be accidents
@@angryox3102 It was my feeble attempt at a little English humour Sir. I do get so much genuine pleasure from watching. Regards.
LOL
😂
This is why America is the best country in the world
Don't lie to yourself.
@@zameertariq-tv7fu copium
Me- I think I’ll try and go to bed early tonight and get a good nights sleep.
Also me- watching school buses race at 3 am.
💁🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️😂💯
Former school bus driver. Wish I could have participated. Too much fun!
Wreckfest is a great game 😊
15:19 Amazing Skills! 👏 The precision these drivers have in navigating the figure 8 is impressive. Hats off to everyone involved!
Definitely an intense race. Awesome action.
So cool!! I think Scary Gary is an icon!!😂😂😂
This is what riding the bus to school was probably like.
The near misses were as epic as the crashes.
My 1.5 year old is obsessed with this specific video 😂 You got him counting down from 5 and saying Oooohhhh!!!!! Noooo!!
Awesome race, super fun to watch 👏👏👏👏
I was in a demolition derby over 40 years ago. I didn't win, but it was quite an experience. Watching videos like this reminds me of that time.
The video under this was titled "How the School Bus Became the Safest Vehicle in America"
Reminds me of a mobile game I used to play called Bus Derby
Scary Gary obviously is serious about his craft 😂💪🏽
This is the most normal field trip the magic school bus is getting
My wife is a school bus driver, I just sent her the link. 😊😊
Commentary is gold
unbelievable the c2s are already getting demo derbied they were brand new when I first started school and they came out in 2004 lol I feel way too old now
I swear the c2s are taking over
And also I feel like they’re always broken down
I know it's crazy and sad at the same time

That’s actually the first one I’ve ever seen in a bus race lol
"ok kids, next week we'll be going on a field trip to the race track. just need some waivers signed"
Why am I at 2am watching this and so freaking entertained 😂
This stuff is why I love America. Imagine a race like this happening in U-Rope; they wouldn't have the balls! 😂😂😂
Yes they do, it's called Bangers. Busses or cars run a race where almost anything is permitted to try to be the last vehicle running. Videos available streaming.
Gonna cherish my Rockford Speedway hoodie, wore it today in fact. Gonna miss y'all
Just to be able to say "Oh I totally wrecked a school bus!" is a great line!!!!
Good stuff, haven't seen a school bus race in forever!
🤘
I don't watch NASCAR or Formula 1, but I thoroughly enjoyed this!
As a school bus driver, this is what it feels like fighting stupid highschool fresh drivers out of the school parking lot.
Is that the same Scary Gary from the infamous bus jump video? What a legend 😂
I'd love to see one of these races. Maybe I could pick up some spare parts for my skoolie motorhome when racers are done with them... LOL
It's gone.It's gone I can't believe it's gone😢😢😢😢😢
I want this guy to narrate my daily life.
Is this Rockford Illinois?
Yea
the drone is sick! great angles
Scary Gary drove like a champ, Crazy this event goes on lol
18 minutes of my life I can never get back, but who cares, that was freaking cool!
2 words: Scary Gary.
Yes we love scary Gary
He was wheeling that big beautiful American turd towards the end.
Figure 8 racing is not only tricky, but extremely DANGEROUS!!
Made me smile
Yellow is for caution
And red mea FLOOR IT!
I miss my old local speedway in Carson city. I rode in a school bus around the track while everybody sang yellow submarine
"We need some cold water!" 😂😂😂
School bus driver and this looks fun as hell!
This looks crazy fun, I love it!
Ohh the things we do 😂😂
This is better than the 2nd place wins race at the Auburndale Speedway in Polk County, Fla. back in the 80s.
Weird coming across this on my UA-cam after having lived within a short drive of the speedway since I was a kid. So sad that it’s closing. There’s already not much for adults to do for fun in the area.
This is actually so fun to watch with my friends.
genuinely the best commentary I’ve ever heard on a race… so damn funny
Why are they closing ? There content is much funnier and more entertaining to look at than nascar
Dude loves his own voice more than anyone else in the world
i wish my ride to school was like this! lol, great race!
Looks like a lot of fun 🇺🇸🏁
People would be a lot calmer if we had more of these shows
I know they are not full of kids,
but my body is freaking out watching this aha
Is this one of the interview process for school bus drivers in America?
R u kidding me! This is freaking awesome! Only in america!!!!!!
P.S. I love the aerial view. More please.
Those school buses are more like military soldiers are marching to war pace truck is the master sergeant so awesome 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Save them all, always a great time for everyone little to old
Ah the joys of rich American culture…..
I don't think many rich people partake in stuff like this

"Thunder Hollow Demolition Derby" was NOT real😯😆😂👏👏💯

Arnold: I wonder what Ms. Frizzle does on her day off
*Ms Frizzle’s day off:*
6:30 my man!!!!! he went for another circle to pick up speed for this wreck!! ahhaha
Jimmy's bus looked in the best condition intill he flipped
this reminds me of cars 3. plus that announcer made this video 10x better
2:35 I love this guy’s laugh xD
