@@schizy When I was a teenager in the 70s, my neighbor had one, it couldn't have been very old, and if I'm remembering right, it sat more than he drove it, I don't know what was wrong with it, but he didn't get to drive it much. My Step Father was a Buick man, we had a 73 Electra at the time, so it seemed like a toy.
The first one, the mustang having to lift to keep from wearing "another bumper" off reminded me of my Omni bodied car at Milan dragway one day. It came up and just wasn't going to come back down on it's own until the bumper was worn half way up the quarter so I lifted a little, it finally set back down after the 60'. I have no clue what it ran, I nearly shit my pants, immediately went back to the trailer, loaded up and left and had a set of bars on it for the next week. I supposed if I raced in a class that didn't allow them I'd figure a way to deal with it but setting it up to bump and put the front end right back down makes the car so much more consistent and let's face it, us poor guys are bracket racing. Consistency is everything.

Can someone who is into drag racing explain why they wouldn't use locked diffs for straight line drags? It looks like a lot of crashes are caused by too much torque on one tire.
All these crashes were caused by having way too much power for certain vehicle. You can't have a couple of tousands horsepower in you car and pretend like everything will be ok every time. It's only a matter of time. Ask pro's.
Yes. It's tough to stick upwards of 800hp, even in a car set up for drag racing, on a prepped track. Any little amount of moisture, oil, or even dirt on the racing surface will cause slicks to lose grip and make the car dart to one side or the other. Drag racing tires run at really low pressure (like 8-10psi) and have almost zero sidewall, so when the car starts swapping around sometimes all the driver can do is hang on and try to keep it off the guardrail
That Anglia tho at 2:23, damn nice vehicle totaled, WTF? That white 55 Chevy at 5:38 tho, lucky for him their was no wall to smash into and total his car! Just took a wild ride in the hay field, yeeha! Lol, just got to clean the hay off his vehicle and he's G2G, lol!!!
@@x-90 R. Lucky for him, right. Seems as though the car was destined to be put back into the pasture it came from, lol? Definitely not a NHRA sanctioned track. More like a NHL skating rink, lol? WTF?
after years of racing you'd think they make the lanes bigger or have a new system of side rails the fact that they live in the past keep them from progressing in to the future
Bigger lanes? No, it's part of the sport. As far as guard rails go, yes, they have been greatly improved. Some older tracks can't afford to upgrade them. I'd rather take the old rails, rather than no track to race on at all.
@@notbilal1480 or is it a (i forgot the name) when you shift back a gear and your RPM goes over its limits (for example in beamNG drive then it happend but my engine almost locked up and the valvetrain got damaged from over-rev damage) and it usually happens on manual transmission cars or all other transmissions that arent automatic.
Sounds to me like he let off it because he wasn't sure if the Camaro was going to come into his lane. When he got back on it, he was still in first, and as soon as he pulled second he realized he was going to win and let out completely. In other words, he pedaled it a few times and then let out before the stripe because he had already won. I doubt it was a trans failure.
The main cause is when the track is not prepped correctly. The track always has to have the perfect amount of rubber and also the perfect amount of track compound but often times it has too little or too much of both things. I work at a raceway so I know all about it
