  • I have never seen a NASCAR flip like that. If only they had that back in 2001.

  • If you look at the tracker he hit that at 185 mph and he walked away

  • he made that crash his bitch!

  • He took that crash like a MAN! lol

  • if that was 10 years ago he would have been dead

  • @qpro192 spot on pal ... with out question

  • wow

  • videos dont do stuff like this any justice. i worked fenceline security at daytona for four years and you will piss your pants when a car slams the wall at 180mph 100ft away let alone 10 feet away. they are scary to see in person

  • how did this car save his life?

  • i was watching this on tv and once i saw him go far into the barrier rite before the crash, i saw that he was gonna crash and i thot he was really injured but he wasnt so i was suprised

  • crazy the car of tomorrow is the safest ever nice

  • oh yea, i was there it was awesome, scary, but awesome(he was safe just for the record) he did like 9 full rolls i believe!

  • Do a barrel roll!!!!

    I couldn't resist!

    =P

  • i still dont know how its possible to walk away like that.

  • Haans Devise,safer barrier,conformed seat and the new car.

  • Who flagged this ? FFS, ooh scary might make you cry.

    Nasty wreck for sure, glad he walked away

  • 2 words: gordon smiley

  • that wreck at Indy was much worse

  • yea , i don't know what the fuck that means either. gordon died first off, and horribly secondly. wtf!!

  • i was there....now one thing i wanna know,whats the name of the dumbass who flagged this?

  • who the hell tagged this as inappropriate?!

  • i hate that dales dead, but if he didnt go in 2001 than that guy would not be gettin outta that car rite there

  • Now that was a crash, devastating. He did walk away, which is good but, he is sore in one way or another.

  • oh thats how earnhard died

  • lol dis wuz on my b day

  • That's how Earnhardt Sr. died. Straight into the wall. No safe walls for him, but thank God we have them now.

  • pew pew pew. my msn messenger id is in my profile! msg me if u want! r

  • wow that's incredible. Unbelievable.

  • I will never say another bad thing about the COT again.

  • The COT still sucks.  I'm sorry but it really sucks.

  • @lnova07 I will cause it looks terrible and in the old car he would have been fine too... its all seats hans and safer barrier

  • If this was ten years ago, Michael McDowell would longer be with us.

  • wow that sucks for him "and he walked away and waved to the crowd"

  • its flagged because a human being was inside that machine, think about it.

  • LOL I can't believe this video was flagged it's just nascar and a wild flip o.0

  • never heard the crowd go OOH like that before

  • why oh why has this been flagged!!

  • prob because of all the assholes arguing lol

  • Na$car is just another form motor racing. It has evolved over the years, gotten less real,but more popular and become a huge advertising bonanza. Its big money backers control the image and foster these bullshit grudges and punchless "fights".The fans eat this shit up. It is the same as monster trucks or wrestling. This is a reason for tired,working folk to sit in front of the TV for hours getting brainwashed by corporate sponsorship. It has an effect regardless of what you think. Enjoy.

  • yea. i watch this for the hard crashes where no1 gts hurt

  • james is kinda retarded

  • Not a original argument against NASCAR as a sport, but I think you said everything yourself when you repeatedly failed to correctly spell the supposed insult at the end of your post. Never mind you trying to use that word as an insult in the first place, itaccurately reflects your immaturity level, I would say.

  • Try hitting a 100 mph fastball. Try throwing a 65 yard TD Pass. Try running up and down a "futbol" field for 90 minutes. Try wearing a fire resistant suit in 140 degrees heat with a helmet strapped to your back driving 200 mph for 4 hrs with 42 other front, back, and side to side for 3-4 hrs. I'm 110% sure you won't last 3-4 minutes. Also, I'm 110% sure you won't do any of tasks mentioned above. Fag.

  • try being in an environment louder than a jet takeoff in constant 145 degree heat with limited driving aids, always cutting your fastest lap for 5 hours, unless you drive space shuttle discovery down the freeway, you are sadly mistaken

  • Auto racing and sky diving are the only true sports. Everything else is just a game.  - Albert Einstein

  • stfu bitch u just wish u had da money and da pussy that those drivers have

  • Hey Dale Earnhardt was a 7 time Winston Cup Champion. How many championships do you have? You get out on the race track and do what he did

  • if you dont like this then why watch this vid.... do you have no fucking life?

  • glad nascar took time into devloping safer cars and tracks

  • he was on the gass the whole time. rookie mistake

  • He meant to say that real driver turn left AND right.

  • y is this flagged?

  • HAHAHAHAHA then why are there drivers out there now who have degrees in engineering? Are they "uneducated rednecks," too?

  • This is one crazy ass accident...thank god that these cars can take these impacts...but car companies should really think about making every street cars be able to take this kind of impact...i live near a high way where there is more accidents then anywhere...and a lot of people die around here.

  • i just clicked this so i could type this down from jeff dunham, he had wone of his puppets say that and i just wanted to type it up then get a good laugh out of it cause i was havin a bad day. personaly i dont hate nascar, its okay, but i'm not a big fan, my dad loves it, so i pretty much grew up with it. sorry for the confusion.

  • this was a spectacular crash but whoever flagged it is a complete moron

  • oww ma gawsh..

  • watch...not make. sorry.

  • The funny part about these people that say "who wants to make cars make left turns" have never been to a race. Each year i take someone new with me to a race and each year after that they always want to go. I went to Pocono yesterday and all 6 of us had a blast.

  • eina sau atsitrenke vyrukas cia tai geras!!! nenoreciau buti jo vietoi

  • nascars a stupid sport, they drive around in a circle, "they're mwking a left turn! they're making another left turn! they're making another left! what are they gonna do next!! i dont know!" stupid.

  • if you took the time to watch a full race or two, you might find it interesting. i don't wanna hear BS if you have never seen a race or don't know what you're talking about. so for your sake, i hope you know what you're talking about so that you didn't just make a biased statement.

  • i no alot ove ppl dont lik thes new cars i lik them much btr then da old 1se n i think that this is 1 reson y

  • Is the concept of a race with right turns, chicanes, and tight hairpins really so hard for you people to comprehend?

    Oh, I didn't realize that that I lost you guys at the "right turns" part.

  • How fucking dumb are you? Ever here of Sonoma or Watkins Glen? Lear a little more about NASCARS venues before making yourself look like just another one of the morons out there that know nothing about NASCAR.

  • dude. i'd rather watch an oval race over a road course anyday. i'd also rather race on an oval than a road course anyday.

    don't hate.

  • NASCAR rulez

  • @ humvee600: of course NASCAR rulez! What else?

  • aguant el turismo carretera aguante ford

    el nascar ni existe comparado con el tc

  • That was amazing, hopefully this technology will be in all cars of the future

  • wery good

  • ive hade worse

  • sure... lol

  • NASCAR rocks

  • Hey Himrchp, really thats just plain wrong to hope a NASCAR driver would die. Nuff said

  • Just goes to show NASCAR has the safest cars in motorsports.

  • this comment was made on 5-26-08. they flagged the fuckin thing.NOTHING HAPPENED TO HIM!!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh my God !

  • It is a beautiful video

    great video and great music of the motor

    a kiss kiss from Italy

    Bye

  • Man, that was a massive crash! But with the new wing, how did he get so loose? You've seen how it corrects most drivers.

  • for wut he did to jr on the last lap and jr could of won?

  • Why are the cars built of aluminium not carbon fibre like a European F1 car? That looked like Kubica's crash from Canada last year and it wasn't that shocking to walk away.

  • Cost containment. Kubica's crash was a hard hit too, it scared me to see that one, as well as this one. Gald both guys came out intact and still breathing.

  • Cheers mate:)

  • Ouch,

    Why restrictor plates at Daytona and Talladega only? It would make it safer and would encourage better driving that would be more competition.

  • WoW. That was amazing. Now i have 1 question.

    How is this not suitable for minors? They should watch this and see how he survived.

  • I have never seen anything like that in my life! lol!

  • I was watching qualifying live when this happened. I couldn't believe it. The first two things that came to mind was the Dale Sr. crash and when Michael Waltrip hit the track gate it bristol.

  • Good thing he's OK

  • These guys can't even drive in a circle

  • it is amazing what they have done with that car and the track to make it safe... well done nascar.  why is this flaged?????

  • thatb just shows the safeness of all of these things that he walks away from that

  • Wow, that is crazy.

  • lucky man!

  • Why is this flagged? Nobody was even hurt or injured at all in this. McDowell was perfectly fine, so it's not like anything bad happened at all. Ridiculous!

  • This is why we have soft walls

  • why the hell is this flagged

  • nascar has more money the F1 and American Lemans

  • true

  • but c'mon though

    cars driving in an oval???

  • it's more than just that. it's the science of perfecting the car with the constant being the track shape.

  • yes but surely if thats your thing f1 would be better because its a changing track and the technolgy combine speed cornering brakes ect.

  • y flag this?

  • and why is this flaged

    waht ever

    but since he is allright

    that what that car gets because its a toyta

    i would not be saying that if he was not ok

    GO CHEYV AND FODR

  • Go Toyota and Joe Gibbs Racing!!!

  • Whos the dumbass that flaged this? any ways i was there it was pritty scary but cool after seeing him walk away

  • nascar sghould race at salem speedway mcdowell was pretty good there in arca actually

  • cant belive he walked away... OMG

  • why may this not be suitable for minors???? gay.........

  • stop bringing dale into shit im sick of hearing his name its always dale earnhardt dale earnhardt dale earnhardt dale earnhadt and shit stfu

  • i was watching this live, you can hear the boom when he hits the wall

  • whats so bad about this ?

  • yeah, he's shaking his head in his GRAVE. the dude is dead and you think he wants to see people put at risk the way he was? dude you're an idiot. that has got to be the most ridiculous statement i have ever read. you seriously think these guys go out every day wanting to die or because the possibility of death excites them? you think that's why they, and dale sr and every other driver that's died goes out on the track... because they could die? you seriously are demented and just plain ignorant.

  • It was just a fucking question!!!!

  • Why is this flagged?

  • This looked like something that would've happened back when Dale Sr. was still around! I think DW was honestly scared that he was dead. Thankfully he was fine, but I bet he really felt it the next morning.

  • To anyone who thinks that the new cars aren't as tough as the old ones...You'd Better have a look at this crash, its amazing to wonder that he got out of that car with only a broken ankel. If something like this happened in the old days, who knows what injuries he'd suffer. Kudos to Nascar for improving safety with the C.O.T.!

  • Actually, he didn't break anything, which makes the COT even better.

  • True to that, I guess I must've been thinking about another accident earlier in the Season. Thanks for correcting me:)

  • No problem. I think Dario Franchitti (sp) broke his ankel at Dega this past Saturday in the Nationwide Series. He got t-boned pretty bad. But that's a whole different car though.

  • He didn't break anything.

  • unfortunatley dale sr. died but nascars safety improvements since his death and dales accident are reasons why this guy lived.

  • daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­mn

  • has anyone died in nascar.

  • adam petty, kenny irwin, dale sr, and i'm sure there's more, but i can't think of any off the top of my head.

  • Those are the most recent.

  • yeah that's why i remember them. tony roper also died the same year as adam and kenny, except tony died here in texas in the truck race. but with the new cars, i would be VERY surprised if we ever have to witness another death on the track. i guess anything is possible, but in this case, i wouldn't say it's likely.

  • awesome...best part of nascar...

  • i bet he drives better than you aOaOrObff at least he can afford a car and has a licence as well what would your fiat uno look like after hitting the wall

  • wow, you're a smart one aren't you

  • wow dude sounds like someone needs to grow the fuck up.

  • whos the dumbass that flagged this??

  • i agree y the fuck wood sum1 flag this

  • all I can say is WOW.

  • he was going 195mph at inpact

  • the reason why this happened was becuase there was speedy dry there nuff said. its not rocket science or nothin.

  • The Primitives-Crash-1988

  • wow !!

  • is he alive?

  • no he's not. it's a very common thing for people to die in an accident and then WALK AWAY from it.

  • what loser flagged this video?

  • dat'll buff out.

  • ouch.

  • philip..... he hit the side and rolled a few times thats about it.....

  • this is my reason on what happened.

    people have been saying how the wing catches the car and puts it back going straight when the car gets loose. when michael turned the wheel to the right to save the car, the wing caught the car at the same time and the car took off to the right and went head on into the wall. if you have another opinion on how this crash happened, let me know. according to my theory, this could have happened to any driver, not just a rookie.

  • ya really why is this flagged i am aptg95 by the way

  • how the hell was this flagged?? lol

  • That is scary but the safer barrier helped alot and the new cot did to

  • is he ok

  • Why was this flagged?!

  • They need to build passenger cars like that.

  • scary that happened to my lover once

  • If that was not the cot he would have died.

  • Roy A Eliasson

    On January 11, 2006, NASCAR announced a universal car named the "Car of Tomorrow" (or "CoT" for short) after a seven-year design program sparked mainly due to the death of Dale Earnhardt Sr., one of the sport's drivers, in a final lap crash during the 2001 Daytona 500.The then-current cars were based on Holman Moody's 1966 Ford Fairlane. The Roy A Eliasson design considerations were "safety innovations, performance and competition, and cost efficiency for teams]

    Roy A Eliasson

  • how many fuckin times did he roll!!!

  • I was watching this when it happened and yes never doubt the walls and the cot!!!

  • The page that linked me here said 8, and that's what I counted.  So 8.

  • never question the car of tommorow and the SAFER barriers

  • i would have died from shock

  • lol a little turkey walk
