Davey Allison's Blowover At Pocono 1992

[ohbobsaget22]

In Soviet Russia safety truck comes to you!

[KeselowskiTheMan]

I thought this happened at Talladega and when I learned it was Pocono I felt stupid.

[gordon24jg]

Clearly Davey was trying to block DW

[jingman3]

that was a nasty crash he took wow

[AngryGundamGamer]

Watch a race at Pocono then and now the only thing that seems different are the cars, not much change in that track.

[underthenorthernstar]

Bad block by Allison

[mrtdub43]

to whoever thinks that they need to take off them roof flaps, this car DID NOT have roof flaps. they werent used until the 1994 season

[stefmjones]

its amazing that they can go through something like that over and over again!!!! this is y I LOVE NASCAR!!! them boys are tuffer then any other athlete will ever be!!!!

[hossboracing]

DW...sometimes i wonder.

[oldsiamsir24]

In Daytona, Safety Truck comes to you.

In Pocono,You Come To Safety Truck

[supercrapnstuff11]

@Bru1nsFOX2433 so that means daytona is soviet russia?

[mrgunboy14]

@Bru1nsFOX2433 it should be in Soviet Pocono

[Leuel48fan]

not sure why they didnt slow-mo the live shot, much better angle...

[sethcorn]

Take them roof flaps off

[flubber342]

@praster666 he won it in 92, I know just how much success he has had, and I know how to find the videos, just everytime I search Davey Allison, all that comes up is tributes, to me, it's an even bigger tribute to watch his success, not watch a mourning video.

[OldSchoolNascar]

@flubber342 yeah I never really got how showing how they died is a tribute...if you wanna make a tribute video, show clips celebrating their life and successes.

[flubber342]

man, the only race where Davey had any success that I can find is the 92 all-star. Why can't I find any races where he did'nt crash?

[DaVoYAGA7]

@flubber342 Someone has uploaded the entire race in which Davey got his first win, the 1987 Winston 500 at Talladega. Its up loaded in parts.

[flubber342]

@DaVoYAGA7 I've got it on DVD, so I don't have to worry about the film quality lol.

[wwwredneckcb]

Davey was back in a car the very next weekend!

[LostHighwayFilms]

i love Pocono, it's a very unique track. but it seems like Pocono has always lacked saftey, like when Elliot Sadler hit the inside rail...i think they should put a saffer barrier there....

[18carNASCAR]

If I recall wasnt this his career ending crash. Please correct me if im wrong

[Nascarfan880]

@18carNASCAR

Davey allison died in a helicopter crash :(. Bobby Allison got his carrer ended, not Davey Allison

[18carNASCAR]

@Nascarfan880 Ok  thanks

[jthornton17]

you know, why have they not done anything about this place? Everyone talked about Sadler last year. But this is just ridiculous.

[JBurtonFan9931]

@jthornton17 They have. It's been talked about since Sadlers wreck. This is 1992, all tracks were like this. But what did the track have to do with this wreck?

[wwwredneckcb]

@JBurtonFan9931 absolutely nothing! looks to me like waltrip clipped him! its a miracle davey survived this! wish we could find some post race interviews, i'd love to here what waltrip had too say!

[pirate772009]

@nazcarfann Why don't you attack the gayest sport ever....soccer.  Soccer....a bunch of little fruits in short shorts lightly jogging after a ball for 3 hours and throwing their shirts off every time they score A goal. Besides, lately I get more entertainment out of football than I do NASCAR. NASCAR is probably going to suck until that douchebag asshole Jimmie Johnson stops winning everything. I hate that prick.

[PerfectDawnFilms]

@pirate772009 Hating someone because they win? lol

[pirate772009]

@PerfectDawnFilms I dislike Jimmie Johnson for the same reason I dislike Aaron Rodgers. He's quietly arrogant. Don't ask me to explain that cause I can't really. He just pisses me off lol

[PerfectDawnFilms]

@pirate772009 Well It could always be worse I guess.

[blowes48]

couldn't agree more!



[Megaman62889]

@pirate772009 I DARE you to say that in any other country but the united states...

[pirate772009]

@Megaman62889 Bitch, I ain't scurred lol. Both of my last 2 girlfriends were soccer players and they were completely aware of my opinion on soccer and it didn't bother them.

[Megaman62889]

@pirate772009 your entitled to your own opinion, all im saying is you would get lynched for saying that in england or chile or spain or france or italy or mexico

[pirate772009]

@Megaman62889 Idk I think I've already done worse. I walked around a mall in Dallas, TX wearing a Philadelphia Eagles jersey and me and some friends walked around talking out loud about how Tony Romo is a fag lol. Idk if you're familiar with Dallas Cowboy fans but they're pretty passionate about their shitty team

[Megaman62889]

@pirate772009 no, im anti cowfags..... but if you think cowfag fans are passionate about the evil empire, just wait until you get a 3rd world country that all they have is soccer....

[pirate772009]

@Megaman62889 To most Queerboy fans, all there is is the Queerboys anyway. Most of the ones that have a strong enough opinion to fight about it are so redneck that they don't care about baseball or basketball.

[LiveforChrist999]

@pirate772009 Philly is way worse.Look at the overrated roster they have.Nnamdi Asamougha.Vince Young.Ronnie Brown.DeSean Jackson.I hope they don't make the playoffs (which they probably wont.)

[pirate772009]

@LiveforChrist999 That's why I'm not an Eagles fan. I just did that for the hell of it lol. I'm a Steelers fan, have been since I was 5. I also think Philadelphia's situation is funny cause every year it seems like some team comes out and says they have a "dream team" and they do horribly. Cinci did it last year when they had Ochocinco and T.O. and the Eagles are probably gonna do it this year.

[LiveforChrist999]

@pirate772009 Oh,okay.I just assumed you liked the Eagles because of their rivalry with the Cowboys.Though the Cowboys are better than the Eagles either way.

[pirate772009]

@LiveforChrist999 Idk, they're pretty even this year. Last year, Philly was way better. I actually used to be a Dallas fan but I'm not anymore partially because they started sucking around '03 and '04 and in '05 they picked up Drew Bledsoe and I've always hated the Patriots with a burning passion so that kinda followed Bledsoe until he retired. Not a big fan of Tony Romo either. Mostly because a lot of people around where I live talk about him like he's Jesus or something.

[LiveforChrist999]

@pirate772009 No offense because I know you're not a fan of the 'Boys,but even? Is that why Dallas is 7-4,while Philly is what,3-6? 4-6?

[pirate772009]

@LiveforChrist999 The Eagles have had a way tougher schedule than the Cowboys and they've also had more problems with injuries. DeSean Jackson has been hurt, Michael Vick has been hurt, and I'm pretty sure I heard Asante Samuel has been hurt. Plus Nnamdi Asomugha hasn't been playing up to near what they paid him so their defense has probably been crippled. Plus, before they had their injury problems, they killed the Cowboys 34-7

[eyitskevin]

@nazcarfann that's very true!

[okendido]

LOL DID HE DIED?

[awalker28]

@okendido You are a fucking faggot for saying LOL.

[dragonbeast5874]

@okendido fuck u do u think it is funny when sombody dies

[eyitskevin]

Nascar.. the only ''sport'' where you can fuck up so badly driving in a circle

[frother]

This seems like a good idea for a sport.

[marktech101]

@frother What could possibly go wrong?

[Larrymarx]

Tnx for the corrected info... Merry Christmas :-) LM

[209mc]

Has there been any other blowovers at Pocono??

[AMERICANPILOT2]

@209mc I don't really think there was another blowover ever since.

[erasetoimprove]

@209mc pretty sure Greg Sacks had a blowover here in practice in the 80s. The rest of the flips were mainly from hitting the turn 1 wall, which has a way of putting people on their roof sometimes.

[Fastball2000]

Man, i miss Bob Jenkins & Ned Jarrett doing races.

[Larrymarx]

@Fastball2000 Me too they were great :-) LM

[209mc]

How fast do you go on that part of Pocono?

Were there any roof flaps?

[BlowoverKing]

@209mc probably about 170mph and that was before roof flaps were implemented plus they didn't run side skirts on the cars anywhere but at daytona/talladega at the time which were design to keep cars from flipping i believe.

[Larrymarx]

@209mc I'm only guessing... but I think they were going about 160 and as far as roof flaps, that was aound the time I believe they started using them !!!!  LM

[erasetoimprove]

@Larrymarx more like 180MPH, and it was 2 years before roof flaps

[tedracefan]

DW strikes again!!!!

[erasetoimprove]

@tedracefan yup. with DW and Dale Sr racing back then, it's no wonder half the field finished with DNF's every race

[vindavison]

@tedracefan it was daveys fault he went to block waltrip and spun himself out

[Falippas]

did he live?

[person5598]

@Falippas yeah, he got killed in a helicopter crash

[bluorangefyre]

@person5598 but he survived this crash and one earlier that year in Charlotte. They both might've contributed to his injuries being fatal in the chopper crash.

[scotturwiler]

I was there for that one too, as a matter of fact my Dad was the Medevac Pilot and we flew him to Lehigh Hospital, still have the autograph too.

[lakelandchief]

@scotturwiler You asked for his autograph? Ha that is cool he gave it to you I guess after a bad crash like that. Was he seriously hurt? 

[scotturwiler]

@lakelandchief No I didnt ask for it he just sent them a few weeks later.

[awz121]

The only year we forgot the god damn camara and this was right infront of us!

[cainanuk]

Dayummmmm!

[Nascar1520888]

ouch!
