Montoya’s crash was beyond strange….. in fact the 2012 speedweeks as a whole was beyond strange.

If I remember right, the truck arms on Montoya’s car were made out of thinner than normal metal and they collapsed. His teammate had the same problem not long after, except for the running into the jet drier thing of course.

@martin joseph You need to get your home checked for a natural-gas leak. You are exhibiting symptoms of oxygen deprivation………or inbreeding……..

That Mark Martin crash (especially the onboard video not included in this clip) is still one of the scariest crashes I’ve ever seen. I am sure Mark needed a fresh pair of Fruit of the Loom.

Wasn’t Cole ordered to hit the pace car?

Reply
Christopher Crockett January 11, 2019 at 5:34 am

@Corbin Selanne Yep. I believe the reasoning was that he’d hit everything else there was to hit on the track, so if he hit the pace car he would have hit everything there was to hit. Fun movie, even if it was pretty hokey. The Dread Pirate Roberts (Carey Elwes) was the bad guy too.

HARRY: We got a couple more laps of caution, I want you to go out there and hit the PACE CAR!
COLE: hit the pace car?!?
HARRY: HIT THE PACE CAR!!!
COLE: but why?
HARRY: You’ve hit every other G.D. THING on that track! I just want your day to be PERFECT!!!

Right. His Bristol crash should have definitely made this compilation.

Ronald Shank February 22, 2019 at 5:47 am

Michael Waltrip could race, so to speak, but he really didn’t belong behind the wheel. I’ve actually lost count of how many near fatal wrecks that he’s been in! His brother, Darrel Waltrip…now, that’s another story. Ol’ Jaws knew how to win races, and, early on in his career, he gave Dale Earnhardt fits! They hated each other with a passion! Eventually, though, they became good friends. I’m not going to take sides in that feud. Just glad they didn’t kill each other… although you can bet your bottom dollar that they wanted to kill each other at times!

@Bob They came out with a movie called Wreck It Ralph. They should’ve come out with Wreck It Mike, at least in this case! I’m not making fun of him at all! The guy’s got a lot of guts!!! Poor Mike…all he wanted to do was race! I like him, and I definitely admire him for trying to live his dream. Too often, though, it suddenly turned into a nightmare! All respect to him, though. He, at least, was willing to live his dream, no matter what!!! God bless him, through and through!!!

@Mostlyharmless1985 rain tires cant handle the weight of the cars at the speeds the run. The 24hr cars run much slower and weigh less which let’s their tires hold up. I’m sure they could do it at a shorter track with low speeds but its probably not worth the cost of developing and testing a tire for a “maybe” situation

The Cup Series raced in the rain last weekend at the Roval! The Xfinity Series has also raced in the race a few times (mainly at road courses).

Some of these races, especially the early ones where the spectators are so near to the tracks, reminds me of going over to my mother and father’s on a Sunday. Daddy liked his NASCAR racing and had cable TV which broadcast them during the season. I was in my early 30’s and we would watch the race together. Each car looked like a regular production model (I know they weren’t but that was the intended effect) and the excitement of the racing was so real. It was a very special time for me watching with my Dad. He’s gone now and sadly too is the excitement that NASCAR racing used to be.

Thank you for this video.. I have watched a lot of your video compilations online and personally think that your videos are more interesting and fun to watch than the actual races anymore.
I used to watch every race but when Jimmie Johnson won the Championship like 7 years in a row or something like that, I lost interest. I bet Jimmie Johnson fans were even bored of it.
NASCAR was so big in the late 90’s early 2000’s I think it burned itself out…
Maybe if they got Tony Stewart to call the races instead of Gordo-boredo (Jeff Gordon, as if you didn’t know, lol), I may consider tuning in and watching. Tony has more personality than Junior, Gordon and Jeff Burton put together.

@Vuntaye EHH, A lot of black smoke going on there. I am not saying 100% couldn’t have been one thing leading to another, but that’s a lot of black smoke a bit too quickly in the slow mo which seems backfire like.

It was confirmed as a blown tire. The black smoke was actually brake dust which is generated more-so on road courses.

Shatter Sucks October 1, 2021 at 12:35 am

@Mac Jr. Yeah. The inside wall of the tire blew. And because he was going so slow it was much more violent.

“A NASCAR spokesman confirmed the sanctioning body impounded the car and would examine it, returning back to the team later on the same day. Apparently, a brake caliper started grinding on the wheel and the excessive heat was enough to cause the explosion in the right front. The explosion blew towards the left side of the car and then upward, causing significant damage to the nose clip and hood.”
