y'all have to remember, the faster you go the more dangerous racing gets. the only thing you can do is make your car as safe as possible. and that includes a better roll cage, the HANS device, fire safety systems, better seats and ETC
If a person is having a tough time taking a physics class, just watch a NASCAR race or a highlights show. There is no greater exhibition of kinetic energy than watching a car going 220 mph start to swerve, cartwheel and crash as it loses built up energy.
@@buddywilliams5650 NASCAR has actually gone 220 on a few occasions. Biffle clocked 220 down the front stretch at Michigan in 2014. Bill Elliot almost got it in 87 with a pole speed over 210 at Daytona
Oh my god that's music from Need for Speed: Most Wanted (the 2005 one) playing at 21:00. It's just pitch-shifted and slowed down from the usual pursuit track. That's... pretty neat!
I nearly cried watching the Dale Earnhardt part. To see all those fans crying made me tear up a lot. Dale was intimidating, he inspired others and made the sport enjoyable. Now it’s nothing like it was when he was around. If NASCAR had thought ahead and added a safer barrier before his death, likely 95% he would still be here today. Rest In Peace Dale Earnhardt
I am a huge Jeff Gordon fan but when we lost big E that day I knew nascar would not be the same I wish they would have had safer barrier than day at Daytona because Dale and Jeff had a few more years of racing left and memories for us to see
He hit a solid concrete wall straight on; he went 160 to 0 in seconds. That impulse is unimaginable on a human being no way he would have lived unless there were SAFER barriers.
+Wade Davis True, but even with the hans and soft wall he still would've died more than likely. His left lap bet broke because It was installed improperly.
I've always wondered the true reason, as I'm sure we all do. I heard from a crew member of a major team in the Canadian series that he was paid off because there wasn't enough room with the arrival of Suarez. I dont want to spread anything, but who really knows.
2:31 - haha, a little window into the way Bobby Labonte thinks. I wanna know the 'cool' stuff he does that he got arrested for!! An i always thought he was square... dayumn it really is always the quiet ones you gotta watch out for ;) Hope ur all good.
Yeah but too bad he is the worse driver in Nascar during his time. He couldn't hold Darrells gloves in racing. Only reason he kept a job was cause fans liked him even though he crashed and totaled so many cars. Especially in 06 and 07.
I bet if Adam Petty never died, he would have won the 500 in the cup series. Probably during the cot era. He could have been racing to this day if he didn’t die. god bless the Petty family, the Earnhardt family and America.
That is so true what lee said that the barrel rolling crashes aren't the scary ones anymore it's the ones that are the hard shots into the wall at 160 170. Those make me cringe every time I see them. Because with a rolling crash in which the car goes into 1,000 pieces, all the pieces dissipate energy and the car keeps moving. The hard hits more times than not the car hits slides 100 yards and stops and on impact it's like 70Gs and it goes from 170-0 in a millisecond and the car stays intact with the front caved in.
22:51 Is a fatal arca crash in 1991. Honestly, I didn't think they had old arca race footage saved, and also did not think they would put video of a fatal crash in. But both are true in the same clip.
I’d suggest that this, 2007, was the absolute zenith of “Cup Racing.” The introduction of safer barriers and Hans devices had not hurt NASCAR’s popularity, but the thinking at the end of the video did - the idea that speed is irrelevant to racing and what people want is matched cars “side by side” with merely stickers and brands to differentiate the vehicles is off the mark. If speed weren’t important, the superspeedways and stock cars through the 70’s to the 90’s would not have laid the groundwork of fandom that so many by this time took for granted, this “fastest growing” adjective that led to so much tinkering to maintain it. I’m sure modern racing is fun for those who love it, but don’t tell me it’s just the same or that it’s as popular.
23:44 preach it, Mark. he's been through some seriously scary crap in his racing career. I totally understand why he detests restrictor-plate races, but the one that scared ME the most was when fire erupted through his shifter's boot at Richmond...
that one reminds me all too much of Dale Sr.'s crash at Daytona in the angle at which Mark hit the wall. fortunately, it was at a much lower speed, but it was still a really scary-looking collision with the wall.
I think that's a pretty good observation you've made, there. I'd wager the "other competition" focus extends to other motorsports that take place on relatively simple tracks, too.
40:18 Jeff Green may not be a major player, but he understands what makes racing fun. it's not the speed -- it's the back-and-forth between drivers and cars of similar capabilities. it's is all in the RACING. in the skill and daring of those drivers and the awesomeness of the machines they pilot..
Wow they really dont say much about nascar fans. " All we want to see is wrecks and speed". No I love pit strategy, tight racing, clean racing and not watching people I idolize die. I'd much rather watch a safer race at 150 mph than a race at 250 without a restictor plate. There isnt a race witout drafting wich i believe starts around 135mph. the speeds are getting much and after seeing carl edwards, Bk, Austin DIllion, or Larson hurled into the fencing it's another matter of time before a fan or another driver is dead. I have always loved racing but would rather not have my son see a driver or spectator dead because people cant get enough speed
+Kyle O Nah bro, the speed at Dega is what makes it great as a fan attending the race. I agree about some of the speed at other tracks though. But not Talladega or Daytona.
Deuce, if listened to the quote closely he said " SOME PEOPLE go to races to see wrecks" he didn't say all people go to races to see crashes but if you had listened I wouldn't need to explain it to you.
that description of "drafting" was horrific. Drafting/ Slipstream is when the car in front punches a hole through the air allowing the car behind to follow with less air resistance. Thus making it go faster. 4:58
It's interesting that they are worried about cars doing 200+MPH but doesn't INDY cars do around 230MPH now?I can't exactly say that's a safe speed for anything on the ground,but would be fun to see them do a race without restricitor plates at Daytona....just 1 time would be nice..
The Indy cars have far more downforce built into them so they are less likely to come off the ground in a crash, more to do with not killing the spectators then anything really.
I would rather see a race at 150 mph that is a tight race than see a faster race. There used to be and still can be great racing at 120 mph. Its not the absolute danger / flying into the stands that keeps a real fan interested. The cars should pass rules are a little more mainstream exciting. Id rather just see a good race. Its why i go to my local track to watch people just over 100 mph on a shorter track.
I think that's ultimately the divide between open wheelers and stock car fans/drivers. I know I'm generalizing but the open wheeler sees his car vs. the track as the test whereas a person in the stock car camp sees the other competition as the main test. Don't agree with all that slower would be better stuff, but I digress.
Jimmy Horton (#32) went over the wall in the 1993 DieHard 500. He came out of the car uninjured and can be seen standing beside it. Stanley Smith (#49) suffered a life-threatening injury in the crash. He is one of the few drivers to survive a basilar skull fracture.
Well, it sounds bad but it took his death for Nascar to take safety seriously. Dale was last man to die in the sport. Before than it seemed like you went only a couple years in between deaths. But Nascar went and ruined what made the sport popular, no one wants all these gimmicks. Old fashioned points system. Reward consistency. There were drivers who never won a race all year and won a championship just because of consistency. That's the way it should be. Not playoffs or chase bullshit. They tried to appeal to yuppies who were football fans. I'm not even southern but them pushing away the southern feel of the sport is what killed it. Plenty of northern people were watching in the 90s and early 00s. It was the largest spectator sport in the world and they ruined it and pushed away their core fanbase.
In fairness, most stock car drivers were against the first iteration of the HANS device because it was too big and bulky and it was hard to get out of a car quickly (e.g., if it was on fire) while wearing one.
Tumbling over straight hit.... Tumble cross your arms let the 5 point hold you.. Shoot right to the fence at 160+ goodnight... .. Lost Kenny Iwrin and Adam at New Hampshire.. .physics.. ..

The new camero ZL1 is legit enough, street version is V8 RWD with only 200 hp less than NASCAR, just Ferd needs to get it's shit together and put the mustang and revive Dodge, Toyoda should bring some Supra V8 thing or Lexus, or return to China
29:27 a better picture of dale's crash that claimed his life because the others looked more scary. At least the cars looked smaller but at the same time they should in my opinion shouldn't have saved the footage or pictures of what happened.
They have to save the footage because as sad as it may be it is A: a part of the history B: dales crash is important to the idea of speed and danger and C: why would it be okay for them to show footage of fireball Robert's crash but because there are so many dale earnhardt fans they can't show dales wreck?

Yeah... I'll never blame Richard for that incident... I'll blame his boss... I'll blame his crew... But I won't blame Richard... Mainly because he truly convinced me that he was utterly clueless as to what was going on at the time... Richard was just driving... He didn't know the car he was driving might or might not have been rigged...

"Daytona was the first Super Speedway" Ummm... No. No, it wasn't. Not even close to the first. AVUS in Germany was a 10+ mile long oval with 5 mile long straights. Monza had an oval track that was around 2 miles long and had steeper banking. Spa-Francorchamps used to be a 15 mile long triangle, basically just 3 straightaways that were 5+ miles long. Daytona was America's first super speedway, but AVUS was around in the 30s and the "national socialist party" aka the nazi party used AVUS for setting speed records and built cars that went over 240mph BEFORE WORLD WAR 2.
What is going on with the voiceovers? It's awful. His voice and mock seriousness is so terrible that he seems like he's joking. An otherwise good doc is ruined by the faux gravity of his voice and intonation.
Goody Cat but meme1 is also overengineered as hell and 500x times more expensive, so that 2 fools with faster rides always win. Low budget NASCARs are ran by average Joes with some engineering and wrenching background... Yet it's too expensive for they to be competitive. JGR would be like Mercedes compared on how they dominate and they're still a world appart in budget differences. So yeah. If NASCAR had F1 budgets they'd kept on developing the 70's aerocars and be running 300+mph today
So why don't you then? Get some guys together, buy some cars, engines, equipment & a hauler & go down to Daytona in February & show everyone how it's done...
catfishbilly martinez hahaha! But seriously- I bet I can get a team of guys from across the country - and - racing on ten random tracks ( Pocono would have to be included, and INdy) that the non pros could o some damage ti their ego's - think about it - the pressure is on them - and they will just get beat down,,, what do u think abt smoke killing that kid and getting away with it - I think it speakls volumes about how effed up their minds are on one hand they race big tracks - wiot big teams - big crowds, big fields, for big money - and the next day - they are up in cayahuga new York - racing in rally cars on a dirt track--- like the dukes of hazard - with the winner getting a pick up truck worth of baled hay and seed. I think smoke os guilty - but he is lucky - the circumstances skew in his favor... meaning there is no set of representatives who can intelligently speak to what exactlky happened on the track - clearly the tape is what they viewed and you can see the other drivers on the the inner track - while smoke is up top - and how would smoke feel if every time he got pout of hi9s car to throwe his helmet at someone - that someone decided to turn right and run him over? he showed himself not to be a man worthy of the name smoke - but - a more fitting title - like " gutless puke child with no brains."

But I won't blame Richard... Mainly because he truly convinced me that he was utterly clueless as to what was going on at the time...
Richard was just driving... He didn't know the car he was driving might or might not have been rigged...
Speed and danger its not even close to Irish road racing

Toyota Camry my ass!!!
They took the worst wrecks in the history of Nascar and presented them like an every race occurrence. Skewed optics for the naive.
You watched the video on mute didn't you? That comment you made makes me think you did.
:)
Wow and I wrote about Jr where in my post? Typical Kyle Busch fan can't handle the truth so deflect to another subject.

"Daytona was the first Super Speedway"
Ummm... No. No, it wasn't. Not even close to the first.
AVUS in Germany was a 10+ mile long oval with 5 mile long straights.
Monza had an oval track that was around 2 miles long and had steeper banking.
Spa-Francorchamps used to be a 15 mile long triangle, basically just 3 straightaways that were 5+ miles long.
Daytona was America's first super speedway, but AVUS was around in the 30s and the "national socialist party" aka the nazi party used AVUS for setting speed records and built cars that went over 240mph BEFORE WORLD WAR 2.
He was talking about just in NASCAR dumba$$, you clearly don't understand nascar or the video.
What is going on with the voiceovers? It's awful. His voice and mock seriousness is so terrible that he seems like he's joking.
An otherwise good doc is ruined by the faux gravity of his voice and intonation.
F1 is faster
Goody Cat but meme1 is also overengineered as hell and 500x times more expensive, so that 2 fools with faster rides always win. Low budget NASCARs are ran by average Joes with some engineering and wrenching background... Yet it's too expensive for they to be competitive. JGR would be like Mercedes compared on how they dominate and they're still a world appart in budget differences. So yeah. If NASCAR had F1 budgets they'd kept on developing the 70's aerocars and be running 300+mph today
Nobody's talking about F1 idiot!!!
THE INTIMIDATOR WAS INTIMIDATED BY THE WALL.
HE DIED ON THE WALL...
NASCAR is a joke.
you are a joke
You're comment is a joke
They hype it to suppress interest, meanwhile it should be called SAFE and RICH. Meanwhile, I can beat 33 of these guys in a race,. its a joke,.
So why don't you then? Get some guys together, buy some cars, engines, equipment & a hauler & go down to Daytona in February & show everyone how it's done...
Vine Wood I will beat half of them, if I did.
bluejackgirlyx gran turismo doesn't count
catfishbilly martinez hahaha! But seriously- I bet I can get a team of guys from across the country - and - racing on ten random tracks ( Pocono would have to be included, and INdy) that the non pros could o some damage ti their ego's - think about it - the pressure is on them - and they will just get beat down,,, what do u think abt smoke killing that kid and getting away with it - I think it speakls volumes about how effed up their minds are on one hand they race big tracks - wiot big teams - big crowds, big fields, for big money - and the next day - they are up in cayahuga new York - racing in rally cars on a dirt track--- like the dukes of hazard - with the winner getting a pick up truck worth of baled hay and seed. I think smoke os guilty - but he is lucky - the circumstances skew in his favor... meaning there is no set of representatives who can intelligently speak to what exactlky happened on the track - clearly the tape is what they viewed and you can see the other drivers on the the inner track - while smoke is up top - and how would smoke feel if every time he got pout of hi9s car to throwe his helmet at someone - that someone decided to turn right and run him over? he showed himself not to be a man worthy of the name smoke - but - a more fitting title - like " gutless puke child with no brains."
Well if you can beat half of, or as a matter of fact, if you can even qualify for a race why aren't you? Or are you content with your current six-figure income?
