Rusty Wallace Daytona Flip 1983

[TheCougarFrom1983]

Why's this infield look like a war zone

[C0LL1N]

boy that infield is a mess, you cant even tell a car from a hole in the ground

[kingofrunescapepking]

no. jacobi was in the first one. wallace was in the second one.

[Gforcebond]

that's a swamp not an infield lolol

[fueldragster]

Man, look at all those tire tracks in the infield!

[pwnzor3000]

damn, did they have a demolition derby? lol

[NASCARWWEclubpenguin]

i couldnt believe that rusty wallace also flipped in that race he always have bad accidents but hes still a heck of a driver

[Naz18h]

they were so slow back in the day, today safety crew gets there in like seconds.

A guy named Bruce Jacobi driving the 05 car had an accident earlier in the same race that put him in coma for 4 years before he finally died. Rusty is probably one of the luckiest racecar drivers ever, there are many accidents he's has that shoulda killed him

[davidd2172]

Actually Jacobi's crash was in the 125 mile qualifier, run the Thursday before the 500.

[DC322]

Well, he had more nasty end of end crashes including a near fatal one at Bristol.

[ROBLOXdude95]

@hockeyboy1231 Yeah like Dega and Daytona '93

[racerjake24]

what is wrong with the quality

[ChristinaC19]

i think its just old

[tornadowrestling56]

ITS OLD ! LOL

[jazzbo1974]

rusty made a few cups starts before this he made the 500 a year before that and in 1980 he raceed for roger penski

[vidEvWill]

he finished 2nd in his debut to Dale Earnhardt and that's Penske not penski...

[raceway24]

In a Chevy Caprice, if you can believe that

[Zoomer30]

Ok guys my vocab is limited, the condtion of that infield...uh...oh on the tip of my tounge. OH sure....wet. :) Look at the mud tracks. Must have been an El Nino yet :)

[sawdust69]

damn, look at the ruts in the grass at the time! if he didn't catch air he would have probably hit the mud and rolled anyway.

[tubularlyradical]

was this taped on betamax?

[astatslpvids]

And people wonder why Rusty hates Daytona and Talladega...it started at a young age, lol.

[word360]

I think this happened in the same Daytona Twin race that Bruce Jacobi had his eventually-fatal flipping accident in almost the exact same area. (I may be wrong though) I thought this because Jacobi's crash is on YT with the same year and the same event, and because Ken says "a serious crash again in turn #2."

[Buggy1Boy]

Yes that was the same race when Bruce Jacobi had his accident.

[Ruddfan1997]

Was it the same Twin 125 and was this one of Rusty's first Winston(Nextel) Cup races?

[raceway24]

They have two qualifying races. I think Jacobi crashed in the first one and Wallace in the 2nd one.

[Ruddfan1997]

This is why you pave the inside of the track
