Yep. RF upper ball joint broke, meaning that the upper control arm was rendered useless. The wheel, now with nothing to keep it from moving backwards, jammed itself into the lower back corner of the wheel well, so that the tire was skidding sideways while the rest of the car was still trying to move forward. The RF caught grip because it was unable to turn, and the whole car pivoted around it, like a grappling hook. The sudden change in direction caused the car to roll. Seen it happen before. :)
@johndoe590 Well, rolls are better than head-on collisions. With a head-on impact, the car just stops. During a roll, the car dissipates energy over a great distance.Therefore, running into a wall head-first is actually worse than a flip, even though flips typically look worse. Funny how that happens. :D
All you who hate NASCAR, you do realise that European racing heritage began as much on ovals such as Brooklands as road and track circuits. The turning right argument gets a tad passe when you factor in the races at Watkins Glen and Infineon, the NASCAR racing season once began at Riverside which is a road course, not to mention Jeff Gordon running competitive laps in a F1 car. Turning right doesn't validate F1 anymore than the technical superiority complex you all have. I'm also British.
@ramfeild66 I see no hate on NASCAR here...? The way I see it, F1 and NASCAR is quite different. NASCAR is a bit more focussed on entertainment, while F1 goes for technical prowess. The only thing that's been said is that NASCAR does not field the world's best drivers. However, two road courses (where drivers with experience in other classes reign) does not really mean much. Don't get me wrong, I know oval racing is still very technical, but it's a totally different discipline.
The boys might struggle to get that fixed up for next week. On a very serious note, it's amazing that Bagwell was generally okay - in fact, it's amazing he was alive.
@IBalboa24 this is actually a "good' crash because the energy dissipates with each roll and lessens the impact while dale sr crashed head on at 200 and just suddenly stopped giving the energy nowhere to go
I was looking to ship through part of the video to see if there would be a replay, so i clicked at 1:18 and I was like, HOLY CRAP HE'S DEAD!!! lolololol
I watch both F1 and NASCAR. F1 is more passing nowadays than it used to be. Even if Vettel was dominant last season, the seasons before that were very tight in the championship. Let's face it, NASCAR only just got out of a very dominant streak from Jimmie Johnson. Both sports are real racing, IMO, both in their own way. F1 drivers are not immediatly competitive, but I do think they are slightly better drivers. I do think NASCAR drivers would have it way harder in F1 in comparison.
@Revvenge It tokk Juan Pablo 4 years to become a competitive driver in the sprint cup, Red Bull Racing couldn't cut it and open drivers can't cut it yet Tony Stewart is winning in everything that has a gas pedal. The 43 drivers that qualify for a race on Sunday for the Sprint Cup are the best drivers in the world hands down!
@NathanKrug1 Don't mistake American open wheel racing with Formula 1. IndyCar and CART champions have tried and failed in F1, while F1 champions and even champions of lower classes have dominated IRL and CART. Tony Stewart would not do well in F1, I don't think. NASCAR drivers are not the 43 best drivers in the world. They're probably the best NASCAR drivers, but there are quite a few way better drivers around. NASCAR is not the pinnacle of motorsports. I respect it though.
@Revvenge Juan Pablo is the perfect example! multiple wins in F1, indy 500 champion and rolex 24 hour champion. Yet he still hasnt won a race in the cup series and he's now in 6th year. The one win he does have comes on a road course. He can't win on a speedway. Danica and Stewart have both won in open wheel racing and competed week in and week out when they were only driving open wheel. It's week after week racing unlike F1 with 2 dates a month.
@NathanKrug1 Juan-Pablo won 2 (Road Course) races, I believe and has come very close a number of times on the ovals. Also, neither Danica Patrick nor Tony Stewart have come close to an F1 seat or a seat in a formula that feeds F1. People like Michael Andretti, Alex Zanardi and Sebastian Bourdais have shown you can be very good in IndyCar, but useless in F1. The fact there are less races is due to the fact there's way more traveling involved in F1.
ok i get u guy like it but anyone could be a champion at nascar regarding pitstops u dont need as much talent as f1 say what u like u like this and i like something else
@MrNerfornothing if its so easy then how come a former F1 champion like Jacques Villeneuve can't run worth a crap in a stock car with a top teir team?
@MrNerfornothing last time i check chief there was another one i believe in 98 (i might be wrong) and there has ONLY been 6 deaths in nascar the last one with Dale SR. (R.I.P) so why dont you do a bit more recearch cause in my book indy and f1 is the same damn thing cause they use the same damn car
@johnsonjeremiah74 indy is well diffrent. do they have kers and drs and all they do is go in circles. f1 cars are stronger go look on f1 offical website and explore
people watch nascar today for the same reason people watched chariot races in ancient rome. they enjoy it and it's something to do. it's the exact same thing as horse racing. except there is more horse power and more laps.
@MrNerfornothing Why do people like F1? There's like 4 passes a race. Give me a break if you JUST watched this video to bitch please take it somewhere else
@OldSchoolNascar I agree with you. Older Formula One races were the real shit. e.g., Gilles Villeneuve and Rene Arnoux's battle at the French Grand Prix in 1979.
@OldSchoolNascar Actually there were more than 600 competitive over takes last year. Which is 31 per race. Considering F1 has half the field size, going faster on narrower tracks, doing it without bump drafting or any other contact, AND they turn right, that's amazing. Before you make a comment like that, make sure its credible. Thank you.
@DBDMotorsports I know it wasn't credible. I wasn't trying to be credible. I'm a fan of racing in general so I watch pretty much all forms of racing. I just said that because I'm sick of people who come onto NASCAR videos just to complain about NASCAR. It gets very annoying
@OldSchoolNascar because they are much higher performance, im sorry that when i watch RACING, i want them to go as fast as possible not stay next to each other all race
@MrNerfornothing There's no side-by-side racing in F1 & there's almost no passing. I watch racing for racing, I don't care what form the track is in or if they don't go fast at all. NASCAR provides superior competitiveness & racing action, I have more fun watching a bunch of good ol' boys in go karts race than F1, the racing action just doesn't exist there, it's extremely boring
@jrt88fan that is because there are sharper corners and different lengths of straits that make it hard to overtake when in nascar it is easy corners to go around and then a long strait which makes overtaking easy
@MrNerfornothing Easy it is not. These cars are at minimum 3400 pounds, & they have half the tire of an F1 car, which means more car control is needed. Also, the fact that they still race side-by-side on road courses goes to show the talent of these drivers, they are the world's best. F1 cars, from what I read produce around 740 horsepower, stock cars produce around 850. Combined with the weight of the cars & how hard they are to hold on to when loose, which is often, they're harder to drive
@jrt88fan For me, an european is Nascar and IndyCar boring^^. I think its normal that the Americans likes Nascar and IndyCar more than F1 or the European Touringcarchampionschips
that was 1 race and loads nascar drivers hav died and the last f1 death was in 1994 when the car weren't that safe. go on f1 official website and look up saftey. nascar is so boring
@TOPGUNCANADA00 NASCAR Goody's Dash Series.... it was 4 cylinder sedans. Actually one of the more exciting series NASCAR had.... however this series is no longer sanctioned by NASCAR :(
@TOPGUNCANADA00 also the NASCAR Nationwide Series ran 6 cylinder engines until the mid 90's so they also sounded high pitched. I actually thought the racing was more exciting when they ran those smaller engines.
I was there that day. Bagwell was running all alone in third when his car veered hard right and hit the steel crossover gate very hard--the noise it made was tremendously loud. Then came the violent flipping. The gate he hit was damaged to the point that it couldn't be closed properly and the race was red flagged for over an hour until it was repaired. There was also a huge crash on the backstretch that year with multiple cars upside down. 1999 Goody's Dash series at Daytona.
although i really miss this series especially when it was on tv don't you think these little cars don't belong on daytona? i mean most of these guys haven't raced on anything bigger than a half-mile and they're now racing on a 2.5 mile banked track. ah well. i still miss this and i miss parsons
I was thinking, at @00:17 you can see a black car through the back window, is that Danny's car, because it looked like it sorta hit the apron and rolled over like Jill George and Chad Hackenbracht crashes.
Gotta love NASCAR, as soon as they get word that a driver is fine, they cut right to the corpse of the car so they can do a post mortem and admire the damage. That's quality TV right there.
all tires were basically more or less intact except for the front right tire which was completely shredded and the drum mangled. I'm thinking it was a tire failure or something along those lines.
@WLFP80 ISCARS, it's pretty cool, they dont race daytona and big tracks anymore, just short tracks, they have wings now, and they have hondas and toyota celticas
@STICKGUYMB what do you mean? They captured like 90% of this crash. I don't really blame ESPN for Pocono either because there was already a wreck going on with Kurt Busch, most of the cameras were watching him. How would they know that there was going to be another, even worse wreck like 10 cars behind him? Pocono was never the kind of race track that has a lot of chain reaction going on.
the goodys dash series was better than people give credit especially daytona and dega. this younger generation dont kno anything about the dash sreies
If you pause at 5:00 and watch the slow mo a few times, you can see the broken crossover gate from him hitting it. The impact tore off the right front and sent the car into this horrific barrel roll.
I don't think the grip got Bagwell over. I know there was a few bumps down there in turn four, but he would've cleared too much ground in order for the grip to turn him over. Maybe the crash looked similar to Casey Atwood's wreck here, just further up the frontchute.
Gate 7...that's the same thing that tore Don McTavish's ARCA car apart many years ago. McTavish slid into that gate and it tore the entire front end off his car, spun him around into the track, and then the rear two-thirds of the car (with him in it) was hit head-on by another car. Killed him instantly IIRC.
thanks for posting the video, very lucky this dude survived the way the car ended up. i like how they dissected the engine at the end using the telestrator, lol
@wildstargo4 he actually hit the crossgate which broke when he hit it, and that's what sent him tumbling. Similar incidents forced them to seal off that gate and build new tunnels.
@STICKGUYMB actually ESPN's coverage was fuckin AWESOME when this race happened. ESPN was king of NASCAR until NASCAR screwed them over with their dumb fox/nbc deal. Thankfully this season ESPN is going to be much better, especially with Alan back in the booth. I actually have gotten to a point where I simply can not STAND stupid ass Mike Joy, I rather miss every wreck than hear him make NASCAR sound like pee wee cheerleading anymore.
@STICKGUYMB and either way the only part of the wreck ESPN missed with this crash was the initial hit (which broke the crossover gate and caused the car to flip) and the first barrel roll

although i really miss this series especially when it was on tv don't you think these little cars don't belong on daytona? i mean most of these guys haven't raced on anything bigger than a half-mile and they're now racing on a 2.5 mile banked track. ah well. i still miss this and i miss parsons

Goody Dash was underrated but a lot of internet faggots are 12 and weren't then.

I was thinking, at @00:17 you can see a black car through the back window, is that Danny's car, because it looked like it sorta hit the apron and rolled over like Jill George and Chad Hackenbracht crashes.

Gotta love NASCAR, as soon as they get word that a driver is fine, they cut right to the corpse of the car so they can do a post mortem and admire the damage. That's quality TV right there.

all tires were basically more or less intact except for the front right tire which was completely shredded and the drum mangled. I'm thinking it was a tire failure or something along those lines.

Reminds me of Elliot Sadler's crash at Pocono. ESPN gets no good footage.
STICKGUYMB 7 months ago
@STICKGUYMB what do you mean? They captured like 90% of this crash. I don't really blame ESPN for Pocono either because there was already a wreck going on with Kurt Busch, most of the cameras were watching him. How would they know that there was going to be another, even worse wreck like 10 cars behind him? Pocono was never the kind of race track that has a lot of chain reaction going on.

If you pause at 5:00 and watch the slow mo a few times, you can see the broken crossover gate from him hitting it. The impact tore off the right front and sent the car into this horrific barrel roll.
erasetoimprove 7 months ago
I don't think the grip got Bagwell over. I know there was a few bumps down there in turn four, but he would've cleared too much ground in order for the grip to turn him over. Maybe the crash looked similar to Casey Atwood's wreck here, just further up the frontchute.

GR24rules 9 months ago
Gate 7...that's the same thing that tore Don McTavish's ARCA car apart many years ago. McTavish slid into that gate and it tore the entire front end off his car, spun him around into the track, and then the rear two-thirds of the car (with him in it) was hit head-on by another car. Killed him instantly IIRC.

thanks for posting the video, very lucky this dude survived the way the car ended up. i like how they dissected the engine at the end using the telestrator, lol

at 2:54 you can see it hit the wall hard enough to flip it. It was facing the wall dead-on
wildstargo4 10 months ago
@wildstargo4 he actually hit the crossgate which broke when he hit it, and that's what sent him tumbling. Similar incidents forced them to seal off that gate and build new tunnels.

Just like Elliot Sadler's crash in pocono, espn did not get a good shot of this horrible crash.
STICKGUYMB 10 months ago
@STICKGUYMB actually ESPN's coverage was fuckin AWESOME when this race happened. ESPN was king of NASCAR until NASCAR screwed them over with their dumb fox/nbc deal. Thankfully this season ESPN is going to be much better, especially with Alan back in the booth. I actually have gotten to a point where I simply can not STAND stupid ass Mike Joy, I rather miss every wreck than hear him make NASCAR sound like pee wee cheerleading anymore.
erasetoimprove 7 months ago
@STICKGUYMB and either way the only part of the wreck ESPN missed with this crash was the initial hit (which broke the crossover gate and caused the car to flip) and the first barrel roll
erasetoimprove 7 months ago
Does anyone know or have video of how he got up in the air & tumbling in the first place?
metalligimp 11 months ago
@metalligimp he hit and broke the crossover gate, one of the camera shots actually shows it broken post-wreck but no angles caught the initial impact

@erasetoimprove So kind of like what happened to mike Harmon at Bristol? similar idea?

@metalligimp yeah except obviously less of Bagwell's car made contact with the perpendicular concrete.just inside of the gate
