[nashvilleraidersfan]

[headbusta25]

[dmancar570]

Steve Grebeck. The Man.  Gone be not forgotten.

[charlespre1]

[nos331]

[KingCobraOutlaw]

at least u guys avoided the stands

[KingCobraOutlaw]

I love steve but he got outta control which means him and the team werent on the same page which means when u use a monster like that u gotta think about innocent people

[KingCobraOutlaw]

that beast turbo will suck the ratchet out ur hand

[Lotum4n]

Who won the race ?

[Sideler74]

Steve Grebeck actually won that race.

[Mach1Marauder]

It's still a damn crying shame Steve isn't with us!

Just think how quick he'd be going today!

RIP Steve!

[shaydyknight]

[shaydyknight]

[Dowdykris4]

[shaydyknight]

[Dowdykris4]

[flugin2008]

[flugin2008]

me and my dad used to race with him until he went to a higher class

[ddaannm2]

gaurdrail dragstrips should be banned Period!

[Spinsane94]

I've never been a fan of guardrail strips for this reason, and several other crashes where the cars shot over (or in the NHRA's case) UNDER the rails.

[12mooneyes]

Steve was the nicest guy you would have ever met... we met him at The World Street Nationals... and the first time we talked to the guy he invited us to his trailor and rig for some bar b-que chicken.... then the next day he was killed wow!!! really sucked :( R.I.P STEVE

[KingCobraOutlaw]

This video makes me mad cause the track was such a piece of shit u had to tiptoe down it and it killed people

[KingCobraOutlaw]

i was there when this happened this track was garbage and might as well have been an ice skating rink it needs to be resurfaced

[lpgammons]

I watched steve at Mobil One World Ford Challange and @ Beach Bend. He seemed like a great guy that was on top of his game in Pro 5.0 he will be missed for sure!

[LittsRacingNova]

that was one of the worst crashes ive ever seen...RIP Steve

[blalocks123]

thats fucked up...RIP STEVE

[onefastang50]

Thanks for the memories Steve! You will be missed, and remembered as one of the best. I remember you setting a record at maple grove, Reading,PA 6.77@208...Great times to remember being present for! RIP

[36chambersmc36]

[bradsnowball]

Moroso te shittiest track ever

[BlownSkillet]

This was at Orlando Speed World during the Fun Ford Event.

[vvdub16]

wow that was steve grebec. one of the pioneers of turbo cars. i was not aware there was a video of this! turbo cars would be alot faster if he was still here. a true innovator. the retarded comments below do not even warrent a response.

[chevyredneckpimp44]

that comment was for the first grade idiot thinking he can rhyme.

[nobule01]

i hope there is a dragstrip in heaven.

[TT2000GT]

They called the turbo The WIDOWMAKER... RIP

[surferbro13]

im really good friends with his son phil

RIP

[migurlinnc]

Steve was my cousin (by marriage). I will always remember him working on cars and being a HUGE sweetheart. RIP, Steve.

[BigBoostGT]

[chevyredneckpimp44]

[Jenry87]

a fallen racer is a hero to me ! Anyone that races on the drag strip has courage beoynd belief and i feel for anyone that has lost a family memeber / friend however i will always love drag racing

[BlownSkillet]

9mm66, who is your mother? We were there on the fence right by the guy with the camera. FFW event Orlando 200?, can't remeber what year this was.

[magnificent10304]

R.I.P

[9mm66]

that was my mothers boyfriend who died

RIP steve

[seankalelangton]

This is the reality of Motorsports. The driver knows this can hapen every time he gets in the seat

[fyuocuk2]

He did not die from the fire or the gaurdrail.The other driver hit him under his seat and the force of the impact is what killed him. I was there at the end of the track and saw the whole thing happen.The sad part was when the crew was holding his wife back from his car.R.I.P. Steve

[rodolfo4x4]

RIP. To Sad

[zimbalatti]

Steve was one of the nicest guys I know and super talented...God Bless You

[whosnext166]

man the safety team took forever to get there, at my track there always there almost before it comes to rest RIP

[01psd]

so sad when racing loses someone RIP

[smiegan]

That man had balls of steel. I take my hat off to anyone who does this sport! Bravest men alive, his family, friends, team mates and supporters should all be proud of how well he did in his career. Respect to him and rest in peace, at least there are no dangers where you now lie! (bet you he is still racing up there!)

[yaiknowscrewme]

look like the gaudrail cut the top of the cage..bad news

[ripetomatoes]

that made me shed a tear, my heart goes out to the family of this man.

[Jackass48]

he died!?thats really sad say he had kids there watching him burn to death in his car ='[

[fiddlerfan]

This is racing!

[wildbanchi]

To Steve who will always have a place in my heart. A man with many talents.

I would watch him for many hours a day building racecars from the frame to finishline. I only found out a year ago about his death. I never saw the video til now, what a tragedy.

I am deeply saddened for his familys loss. RIP STEVE

[tommyboyracing1919]

The Good Lord must have a car he needs tuned and he called the very best around man around home to do the job. Steve left this world doing what he loved to do. RIP my brother.

[aflacduky]

[AmericanFabricator]

[nxrex]

Rip Steve..

[jama7913m]

[nxrex]

RIP STEVE..

[jama7913m]

you have no respect for the family do u ass take this off rate now or i will pull it myself got dum ass or at lesed make a turbut in stade you said (Single Turbo Mustang (PRO-MOD) Crash & Burn) he was killed by the seat belts nothing else so please if you leve it up just change THE FUCKIN NAME got it good

[Sideler74]

jama7913m: He was killed by the seat belts, & the seat belts only??? Oh... I didn't know you were on site at this race track the day Steve died. I'm sure his death had nothing to do with the fact that the car rolled itself at over 200mph. P.S. You're a fucking idiot.

[jama7913m]

y im i a fuckin idiot and no it had nothing to do with the fact that the car rolled itself at over 200mph ps my real name is jon(jack)walter and no i was not there but his funeral was on my birth day march 8th so yes the seat belts are the only thing that killed him so pat Musi

,Marc Dantony ,and all of the nsca,nmca,and fun ford were there so dont say that i dont no any thing about Steve Grebeck my father was the one who toke pat and marcs family k.

[lilflyboy262]

And what would have happened if he wasnt wearing the seatbelts? Oh thats right he would have been pinballed around inside the car at 200mph.

RIP dude

[BackfireBob]

Does jama7913m translate to (J)ust (A)nother (M)entalmidget (A)sshole? You are stump-stupid (that means your not very bright)

[jama7913m]

im a senor at north side high jama means (j)esus

(A)nd (M)e (A)lways my dad is the pastor of jama

so dont u ever talk about my parents ministry

unless u have the balls too back it up u mother fucker son of a bitch

[BackfireBob]

Jama...you dumb fucking porch monkey!

Your parents ministry is a joke. Just like a TV preacher.I have great BIG balls you illerate jiggaboo...

[jama7913m]

pop the fuck off bitch

[BackfireBob]

You illiterate son of a bith HAHAHAHA. You have a 4th grade education? You can't spell shit YOU should have been in that car! dumb ass

[jama7913m]

what the hell are u talking about

[Mightierthanever]

@jama7913m Are you all there?

[jama7913m]

@Mightierthanever what do you mean

[keithinms]

knew him from the old days when he had just left roush. awesome guy and loved racing. awesome head guy on fords. he knew the tricks

[ackbar00]

I remember reading about this wreck in 5.0 magazine. Sucks :(

[LS1formulation]

I met Steve at an NMCA race in Cordova, Ill. He was a really nice guy. As for how he died, when his car went up on two wheels the other car hit it in the floorpan which caused his body to be forced upwards. His helmet was slammed against the rollcage with such force that it broke his neck and killed him. RIP Steve.

[slitheringinterstate]

Does anyone know what Steve injuries Steve died of? I don't see any blunt impact in the crash...just a barrell roll...what caused his death?

[Sideler74]

hmmmmmmm maybe the FIRE caused it???

[Seasonintheabyss]

Yeah, i know right. But always remember, the good die young

[KingCobraOutlaw]

@slitheringinterstate he was knocked out in a car that was engulfed in flames take a wild guess

[jama7913m]

@slitheringinterstate it is my understanding that his seat belt ripped the aorta off his heart in his chest and was killed instanly.....and to anwser ur question when he hit the other car and rolled over the wall is when it happend steve was not wearing a hans device for it not mandated till 2008 some people think that was contrbuter also

[Breetastic]

I am a drag racer and will be until the day I die. Though I never knew Steve I am sure than his friends and family would agree that he passed away doing something that makes him happier than anything in the world (drag racing). God bless you brother!

[tk1ny75]

aight, its sick to see something like that happen in the exact lane where I got my fastest time!

way back (probably before this happened) was gonna devot most of my time as a racer. Im glad I didnt.. it aint worth it!

[j4a1991]

RIP Steve...

[dsturbd]

I was there the day it happened....actually, I'm a bit surprised that this vid is still to be found on the internet. Seemed like everyone removed it out of respect....Such a sad thing to see again..

[Sideler74]

dsturbd: My intention in posting this video was never to disrespect Steve Grebeck. He was the Michael Jordan, the Tiger Woods, the Mickey Mantle of Drag Racing. As far as I'm concerned he will be looked at in the respect for decades to come...

[Sideler74]

P.S. Steve Grebeck ACTUALLY Won That Race.

[dsturbd]

I guess I worded that incorrectly..I didn't mean that you were direspcting him, just when it disappeared, that was the reason given for it being removed...which was understandable. I agree, Steve was a pioneer in this sport...man, and he was kicking ass too that year! I was actually at the race at the beginning of the vid too, that was the Hot Rod Powerfest held at Moroso the weekend before he died in Orlando.

[dsturbd]

Damn, 500 word max...the rest of what I was typing..

Turbos sure gained some popularity that year due to his combo..man people copied the front mount and the nose of the car as well....He'll definitely be remembered!

[TheJake25]

yeah Steve was my cuz... alot older than me but still family... ill miss you much steve!!

[BigBoostGT]

Such a great loss in the racing community. RIP

Steve.

[na347]

RIP.

[pro50fox]

Steve Grebeck......light years ahead of 99% of racers.

[r0j0d0j0]

Yeah, definitely Steve Grebeck... I remember reading about this after it happened. I followed his career in the magazines but never got a chance to see him race. Such a shame, he was dynamite

[philyt]

Fast cars and dangerous times. RIP, sounded like a very cool guy to hang out with, and to work with.

[kingbusta420]

Im sorry to see that so much knowledge and spirit was lost in this accident. Ol' boy sure could build a 'stang tho. R.I.P.

[justwatchin08]

I went to jr and high school with steve in livonia mi, He was a good guy,very sad

[aveckillz]

shit dog that sucks

[2916jr]

atleast he died doing what he loved

[Lordestroyer]

Very sad.

[TarasXvX]

R.I.P

[Sideler74]

I've updated the info box to the right of this video. It explains the life of Steve Grebeck - R.I.P

[Harvick2921]

RIP Steve. He died in this wreck i believe

[mayhemjay73]

This is the crash where Steve Grebeck did die. He was running Bill Rimmer on that run. RIP Steve, we miss you man.
