DAF TurboTwin 1988

[NoConvict]

DAF...best trucks...with paccar

[MaxwellEindhoven]

@NoConvict Well, Paccar bought a very good company, but the best achievements were made before the Paccar era. Paccar doesn't do anything, they just bought the company and now they slap their stupid logo on almost everything DAF builds.

[NoConvict]

@MaxwellEindhoven

Ok,

i think in the next few months i learn a lot about DAF :)

[Kastenpickert]

It is back !

There is a God !

 :-)

[SuzanneKowalski]

gives me goose bumps to see a b-group rally car being overtaken by a huge truck.. it's unbelieveable

[becurious1977]

@SuzanneKowalski

Imagine youre Ari Vatanen driving across the desert with over 200 kilometres an hour and you get passed by a truck. Must be sick seeing that out of your window

[TheModernmovil]

monstruo



[Ktmzqw]

FUCK FUCK FUCK, this video was actually amazing with the Depeche Mode track!

[ZaRaC47]

super je to tak

[sentineloffreedom]

I really hate the fact that YouTube takes audio tracks off of the videos if it's not cited... probably the biggest pitfall of the organization...

[MrRocker124578]

I'm fucken sick of WMG doing this sheet over and over again, We have to put a stop to this shit. what's a good video like this one with out some good tunes on to pump you up?

[yakanies]

@MrRocker124578 you got that right

[035TheAlexa]

is the guy at 4:10 dead??

[Bladod]

@035TheAlexa, yes. He was Kees Van Loevezijn. His death is the reason DAF stopped participating in Dakar.

[iegemboy]

OLD SHIT

--------------

[MrRAFAEL3146]

What a truck! how many hp? 1500 at least

[camioneslocos]

un super camion

[dakarbemo]

by the way there ware 2 exact the same machines expet fot hte paint job thet X still lays in the dessert. there are still some big body penals laying around and for the rest it is just the frame, roll bars and that sort of stuff. the X1 is nowadays still in mint condition it houses at the DAF museum in the city Eindhoven.

[hauu]

Karel Loprais with T815, not faster but.....

[corecrusher]

Fastest truck ever ,no kamaz or any other truck can ever do this !

[markfsr]

Best rally truck ever made, untill the 2nd truck made a devasting high speed crash. After that they started to change regulation and rules to reduce power and speed. 80s saw some of the best and fastes cars ever made, remember Prototype C le Mans , Group B rally, F1 turbo era. 80s what a era that was :-)

[ingekevi]

They wer third overall when they crashed :-(

[jeromebos]

Actually, I believe it was the other team that crashed, but that was the reason for DAF to pull back Jan's team as well.

[Casillerou]

2 engines??:DD 2 turbo's man..

[59crewcab]

no really.. 2 engines..

the daf turbotwin X1 is the fastest rally truck ever. 1st place in the trucks and place 11 overall!! no truck has done that ever since!!

[MrZegerov]

@Casillerou Actually, there were three turbo compressors on each engine.

6 turbines on 2 engines. 1200 bhp.

[1973stefant]

2 engines each 600 bhp = 1200 bhp

[dakarbemo]

@1973stefant  that is what it is..

[beabiker]

go die wmg

[Jamirofan89]

alright now WMG group should hang them selfs up with a rope :@

[SwiffMeister]

Without the original music, this video is quite boring :(

[rasmAn2]

just saw this thing in action a week ago at the eurocircuit. it is almost as old as i am but it is still a downright beast. way ahead of it's time

[CitroenSaXoKe]

top speed was higher than 220km/h!

[desmodronic916]

I have this video on tape, with natural sounds, I dont know why they have ruined it with that gay song.

[desmodronic916]

Here is something similar with sound:

watch?v=-bgE4aosWQk&NR=1

[smileadventure]

who the fuck is WMG

[Skallehammer]

Who flags videos anyway? Surely most people would like to have sound in them. Unless they were paid to surf YouTube and flag videos.

[kamileexx20]

fuck the sound

[jeremylstewart]

I agree.. Why can't WMG be flagged or penalized for stealing the main audio track? You would think that THEY would have the technology....???

[Nielsx1]

fucking wmg fuck you

[xerfes]

FUCK WMG!

[zoonvangod]

What has WMG to do with the things Jan De Rooy Says.

It has nothing to do with music so put the audio back an the film.

[debaserrf]

to whoever flagged this video and had the audio removed: i wish someone would rip your dick off so you wont be able to contaminate this planet nomore!

[pianeroman]

just open another youtube page with a song and enjoy while see this one jeje

[enteng2366]

FUCK COPYRIGHTS

[Rich606]

YEAH, fuck protecting the rights of songwriters. What did they ever do for us?!?

[jebba84]

Warner shouldn't be whining about 'their' music being used for such a great clip! if it wasn't for the fact that i already bought the two albums from DM that are featured, i would download them just to get even!!!

[smits1992]

totally fuucked up without audio

[jww2124]

This vid just went to shit without audio

[spoponiz]

i love this video

[stoopbert]

leuk als ie weer op gas moet komen :D 1 zwart gat kom je tegen als je er achter zit xD geweldige wagen was die turbo twin

[dizzymend]

Its a shame the trucks are limited now! images like these are priceless. If only the accident would not have happened.... Hope his son does it better this year and beats the russians!!!

[dakarbemo]

it was not jan who crashed.. he found out about the crahs after het won that stage..

[dieselpomp]

mooiste truck ooit en de snelste truck ooit jammer van dan ongeluk

[SwiffMeister]

De mooiste machine die ooit door Afrika gereden heeft!

Heel jammer van het ongeluk destijds, anders was de Rooy 1e geworden in het algemeen klassement...

[compuboy112345]

africa raly dutch 1 and 2 an dakar dutch 1

[kakarotvegeta]

One can only speculate what was going through Vatanen's mind when he looked to his left and saw that daf overtaking him, at 200+ kph.

Must've been something like MFG!

Best Dakar footage ever!

[Arghofstone]

Holland rules

[hotsenders]

Does anybody know which music (of what artist) is used at this video?

[Hamishtarah]

it is depeche mode, but don't ask me which track....i've never been a fan from this band

But you surely find it on youtube ;)

[FranzWespe]

Never let me down again - Depeche Mode

[Renton67]

Depeche Mode there are two songs

1. Never Let Me Down Again

2. Clean

This was the last gasp of the Turbo Twin trucks,,,Badness!

Speed Racer's Mammoth Car brought to life.

[huaxalomos84]

una verdadera máquina del desierto!!!

[ma55aracin9]

ciertamente

por desgracia,la tragica muerte de K. Van Loevezjin precipito el final de los prototipos "camioneros",los cuales sin duda alguna fueron los mas veloces "rally raiders" en la historia de tan prestigioso y peligroso evento

[klikodog]

en toch is het jammer dat er daf op dat ding staat (raba) voor de kenners

[GinoSVK]

Loprais sr. je aj tak NAJ !!!

[resurt68]

unico e irripetibile . the best

[lilnumo101]

Does anyone know what caused the crash seen near the end???

I know it was someone named van Loevezijn that was killed but there doesnt seem to be much info around on the crash.

Jan de Rooy seemed upset at the end though :(

[yacht2007]

As I remember it was the X2 and got to do with the bouncing, unballenced, rolled over and one was launched.

[MistaNL]

Well, Van Loevezijn didn't want to attach his safetybelt to the rolecage, but tot his own seat, so when they crashed Van Loevezijn went straight trough the frontwindow and died, because his safetybelts were attached to his seat instead of the rolecage he just flew with hisown seat. My father saw it,he drove the Paris-Dakar 3 times 1986,1987 and 1988, maby he wants to drive next year, with the same team, as veterans!!:PYeah sad story, but you can say, it was a little his own fault.

[compuboy112345]

what is de name of the music

[libidexx]

depeche mode

[MistaNL]

Which One from Depeche Mode?

[Mknives]

I asked that question 5 months ago. i guess its d-mode but what song, who knows.

[brylant59]

So, in the begining: Depeche Mode - Never let me down again (album: Music for the masses); in the end: Depeche Mode - Clean (album: Violator). Enjoy!

[compuboy112345]

DAF is the power of the dakar in the 80

but now is MAN vs GINAF vs KAMAZ ow dakar 2010

will be a battle of the strongest trucks and best drivers.

i hope it will be 1 2 3 for the netherlands

bot the cheash of chqagin in 2007 is hard

i is not on his mind to drive sow crazy

[GrubieNL]

DAF power xD

[edgeses]

that's a nice car :-)

[carje58]

que pena que se pierda el dakar por culpa de los moros por otro lado ya no era igual que antes

[rimcap305]

i'm i the only person who thinks this is hilarious lol rally trucks this is a first rofl i cant laughing on how it actually passed the little car n then flipped lol

[rimcap305]

after rofl i meant "i cant *stop* laughing...

[Makemyday0126]

Did I see 95XF on the front of this? surely there was no 95 series back in 88, I'd have thought they would have had it based on a 3300 or something?..or was this used as a pre production teaser? Some trucks Though, They say DAF stands for Dead As Fuck In Ireland, but these videos prove that this is far from true.

[LuapIbiza]

No, in the front you see X1 or X2. Nothing to do with the later 95XF. The DAF 95 was launched in 1987 and had an improved 11,6 liter engine of the 2800/3300. The DAF 95XF was launched in 1997 and was an face-lift model with the new 12,6 liter engine. 'XF' stands for 'Extra Force'.

[ma55aracin9]

nope,but rather "95 X1" up front

[Mknives]

Someone please tell me the songs name. it sounds like depeche mode.

[focusFR200]

of all the the great TRUCKS that were raced in this,the most prestigious and dangerous rallying event-since his very inception back in '79-,the DAF's were the most outrageous and most powerful of them all;my ONLY regret is that this year's edition was "shutdown" due to terrorist threats.f@#&^k them!!!!!

[compuboy112345]

the sound of that tuck tis a mirrikal and i have seen that truck what a beast en nobuddy can stop it 2009 vs 1988 MAN VS DAF the macht of the dakar

[FiegelvonZundapp]

Tatra, who mid race had made an illegal engine swap en several other illegal repairs througout the rally, where NOT disqualified.

De Rooy never even bothered to file a complaint against Tatra, as he put it himself:

I cant win it in the "politics" here, but i will beat them where it mathers, on the track.

And so he did.

So please, take your Tatra and shove it will ya ?!!!

[rumcajsss]

what do you talking about, illegal stuff were only in Daf, disqualification was all right and even not for Tatra teams notification, idiot. Tatra truck were everytime strictly in legal version and Loprais always said that de Roy is favourite son of the marshals

[Kilingme]

Roy had been in lisboa-Dakar (2006 ou 2007) and was not alloewd to run, only due to some paper problems...

[FiegelvonZundapp]

Jan de Rooy is still one of the very best Truck Rally drivers, only way Tatra can defeat him is by politics, like 2006 which is an excellent exaple of Tatra's poor sportsmanship.

With 3 Daf trucks in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd position, Tatra complained about the Daf's suspension, the day before the finish.

The suspension on the Daf's had been approved at tech inspection, but all of a suddenly they where disqualified.

[sannitqa]

I agree with you that Jan de Rooy is one of the best truck rally drivers but you're talking nonsense about Tatra's. Winner of the Dakar 2006 was russian driver Chagin with Kamaz, not czech driver Ales Loprais with Tatra!! Your comment about complaining the DAF's suspension from Tatra team was totally out! Please read the facts before you post s*it like this, thank you.

[ninjagrrl69]

I thought it was video of the music band daf;) hehehehe

[OlijfOlifant]

JAN! SuperHERO!

[adzelf]

The start in 1988 was in Gercy Pontoise beside Paris, it was a great mudpool, after the race they found about 50 shoes and boots in the mud, that year also Kees and Mieke tijsterman started in a pajero, and a pajero with a 2 CV citroen shell.

[MarcoF430]

Why did De Rooy withdraw?

[MrChon]

In the accident of the video one member of De Rooy's tripulation was dead an he took the decision of not take part in the Dakar anymore.However he returned to the rally in 2002 with his son and with DAF also.

[MrChon]

Sorry this must be an answer to MarcoF430 question

[spikkel70]

The driver who died in from the DAF team, was already warned by Jan the Rooy. That driver was ranked on the first place while driving his first rally. And faster then Jan, who is the most experienced driver. Jan said that the truck was gaining momentum (jumping) above a specified speed, because of lots of small but high wobbles in that part of the track. I think he also regrets it that he didn't warn enough.

[manick91]

en die rijder had zijn eigen dood gemaakt omdat zijn gordel aan de stoel vast zat en niet aan de cabine...... en dan vlieg je door de voor ruit(mijn vader heeft het zelf gezien in 1988 hij heeft 3x mee gedaan=])

[roscommdoggie]

a legend, this is histoty. you can t call it a truck anymore but a unlimited racemonster. in this way it has much more potential than a car. this and the increasing danger for drivers caused the ban of these monsters.

This truck is by far the best and most impressive machine the dakar has ever seen.

these video is a must see for every dakar or truck fan.

[mechanik180]

ale rakieta nieżle jan

[mongooltje124]

That day he took over the peugeot he was second OVERALL!!!, THATS AWESOME

[teknoslet]

Jan and the first DAF era trucks were the fastest and most innovative rally trucks ever. They were full factory beasts (the 2nd era was only 'support'), twin engined and turbo's equipped.

Being outlawed and forbidden was the end on an era.

Turbo Twin II was the fastest rally truck ever in action.

[MarcoF430]

De Rooy is not as good as Loprais!!! TATRA TEAM FOR EVER

[Xiandu93]

if the DAf X2 wasn't crashed was he the best rally trucker in the world

[MarcoF430]

It is about driving skills. Thats right that DAF turbo twin was probably the best truck in dakar history, but if De Rooy drove the same Tatra as Loprais, he wouldn´t be as good as he was

[compuboy1123]

2008 is for team MAN

[MosPos]

-Super video!

-Super soundtrack!

-1 month to Dakar!

[kamileexx20]

Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again

[igorvich]

the song is called: never let me down again

it's from the band: depeche mode

awesome video !!!!

[kamileexx20]

Jaki jest tytuł tej piosenki ??

What's the music songs??

[MarcoF430]

Loprais is the best!!!;-)

[compuboy1123]

Daf 95 x1 is a legende in the car sprot

[skoczzy]

I can't stop watching this video, man. It's the first time I've ever seen an automotive video on YouTube with music that actually fit. The clips fit together so well...awesome job.

[compuboy1123]

daf rules

but now MAN

[typex112]

egg wel DAF!

[tractorlandoverboat]

did jan die

[rockstaert]

no, still alive and kicking, just watch this years dakar :)

[timduckie]

i was young to end Jan De rooy is in mij country a legende

see enjoy

[BrianSupreme]

As I was a young boy I was three or four times in the DAF Museumn in the Netherlands and I still have promotion stickers for the 1986 and 1988 Dakar Rally were DAF won.

I like espially the 86` 3600 Turbotwin...

[predatorfatul]

you miss the 1998 winner. After DAF team withdrawal it was TATRA and Karel Loprais (his first out of six) after tough battle with Jiří Moskal with LIAZ, who won that year - exactly how had Jan said about the competitors - one of the best - especially TATRA, LIAZ.

[timduckie]

the daf twin cam 2 is the bast car of dakar ever in historiry and a driver out the netherlands my country

i think a mash

enjoy

[jst245]

oke what is the song on this video ??

[igorvich]

depeche mode, never let me down again

[yisuru]

caleb505 the guy in the seat at 4:02 was thrown out of the truck and the truck landed on him once and he died. (that's what i heard)

[caleb505]

what is the song to this video?

[caleb505]

at 4:02 when that guys still in his seat on the ground is he dead?! if so thats very tragic and sad.

[ma55aracin9]

@caleb505 yeah, it was almost like a repeat of Zolder F1 '82, where we lost G. Villeneuve.....

[sennahj]

Today i drove by Jan de Rooy trucking company. Tucked away in a corner on the terrain.... 3 Daf Dakar trucks from the 80's rusting away. Including the twin cab.

[LuapIbiza]

But in de Daf-museum in Eindhoven you can see several Dakar-trucks from the 80's as well.

[Wolfie123123]

very good video, quite emotional, people DIED in these things.

[timduckie]

de daf is een coole wagen en er is veel vermogen in dus de perfecte wagen voor dakar alleen mag je geen 220km/h rijden :( dat is jammer

[JT0k3r80]

wow is that Kees guy still in his seat? wooow man...

[Danja65]

Nice but it's tragical that his brother dies in an accident

[wzrox]

not his brother kees van loevenstijn died

[rene850emmen]

because of this accident the daf factory stopped racing in dakar..good video

[Hondenbrok]

It's an almost overwhelming moment when you see the crashed truck. The music somehow fits perfectly...

[Nightshadowv6]

The Daf turbo twin had 2 11.6 liter turbo diesel engines, each developing 1200hp. One engine for the front axle and one for the rear axle,the X1 stands in the DAF museum in Eindhoven.

[LuapIbiza]

I thougth two times 600hp for enough reliability, but I assume that 1.200hp is possible (I saw DAF DKZ 1160 engines in tractorpulling with more than 1.500 hp).

[veilside1968]

that truck has 2 engines each about 1000hp, a few years ago the raced a evo 5 rally car and the truck won the race

[ChippyChullo666]

you are mistaking it is 2 times 600 ps

[LuapIbiza]

At 4:09. Is that the dead body of Kees van Loevestijn?

[wzrox]

yes

[forisco13]

simplemente brutal

[Hellek]

I wonder what the weight of that truck was.

[Bubak777]

About 10 000 Kilograms

[toeterboef]

1200HP with Alu spaceframe. Speed at that moment aprox 185km/h. Topspeed +/-205-210km/h. Jan wanted to continu the race but The DAF-president stopped them.

[Mishie1987]

The two co-drivers died when they crashed. That's why DAF stopped racing for a long time.

I think that it was too heavy and big for that speed.

[TheGreenKRS]

its a but sad story ... great video!

[roi71]

it was not the de Rooy truck that crashed but the second truck. and it was the mechanic that didnt survive .but still a superb vatanen moment!!!

[ma55aracin9]

210 km/h(.6254)= 130+ mph!

man,that was a crazy contraption of raid truck

[Ronvdh]

Awesom that big black smoke when the truck shifts gears, and Jan gives fullt throttle!

[toulixado]

Both music are from Depeche Mode.

1st - "Never Let Me Down"

2nd - "Clean"

[Petrolhead1984]

Ik geloof iets van 205 km/h

[MartinVDB1984]

hoe hard ging De Rooy eigenlijk toen hij Vatanen inhaalt, ik heb iets gehoord van 200 km/u :-D

[HeidiLandRover]

Yes, I think that's the correct translation. Jan is # 502 this year, driving the Ginaf. The race starts on 6th January.

[MartinVDB1984]

He was disqualiqied before the start of dakar because of a stupid reason. The organisation said that there was somthing wrong with the homologation (don't know if it's correct translated). Simply said, the organisation said that there was a problem with the papers/administration

[ma55aracin9]

@MartinVDB1984 ....just like Brabham's infamous "fanmobile" -BT46B- after winning the 1978 F1 Swedidsh Grand Prix from the outright

-it was banned from racing on "safety grounds" as other racers complained of being "showered" by gravel/sand-

[herrbohnen]

where was he last year?

[Petrolhead1984]

Jan de rooy the dutch dakar legend his team will kick ass in 2007

[Goudje010]

Prachtige beelden, alleen jammer van het verschrikkelijke ongeluk.

Het blijft een geweldig gezicht hoe dat De Rooy Vatanen inhaald.

[ZeeuwsVlaming]

thanks

[ElDiabloZX14]

Depeche Mode, Never Let me Down.

[ZeeuwsVlaming]

Do anyone know the first music number?

[krazyjey]

mans world
