Wow, he's lucky. Watching all these mishaps in videos and at the track with the 275 drag radial cars has changed my goals with my car. I used to want to build a car to run in these classes but they've gotten too expensive and cars are crashing too much for me to do it. All I need is to run 10.0s in 1/4 mile and 6.30s in 1/8 and that's fast enough for me. Hats off to all the guys and gals willing to go for it, the entertainment is great.
That Nova looks more red than orange on my screen, but the color would be completely irrelevant had those tires caught just a little bit more when he got sideways. WOW! "Lucky" doesn't begin to describe it.
Love the rear wheel setup on the Green Nova. That's how I want mine to come out. Wish I could get some info on it. I have a 70 SS 12bolt with a 502 and muncie.
WOW! That car was getting it real hard right off the line and It was lose/squarely also must have a lot of hp. Something wasn’t right. I like how he rows the window down and drives off like nothing happened. Lol I’am glad nobody got hurt. I love those Nova’s around that year.
I've rolled a car doing 80 plus and spun a car at 140, there is not pucker factor involved. Everything moves in slow motion and it's almost like you are watching a movie and not really their, now afterwords you piss or crap yourself but not during in my experiences.
GlassTopRX7 oh definitely. Had that same feeling when I spun out on an icy stretch of highway, only my van wound up on its side in the median. I was shaking for a while after that, but my boss wasn’t thrilled to see the van when it rolled back into the shop that afternoon (still drivable but the drivers side needed repair from bumper to bumper).
I have an 855rwhp 19 Mustang. And I have done the same thing only substantially worse. I didn’t let off when the tires broke loose at at about 60. Thought I could drive through it, I believe I lost it around 80. I spun three times in one direction when I thought I had it corrected I did a spin and a half on the other direction and came to a dead stop facing oncoming traffic. Luckily I was far enough ahead of the oncoming traffic that I was able to just drive off the road safely. Stayed on the 2 lane road though and didn’t damage the car. Not a good feeling. Certainly had nothing to with my driving skills. Pure luck. Haven’t driven it on the street with traction control off ever since.
Something else occurred to me. I see both cars have leaf springs and Cal Tracs or equivalents. I think if the car had ladder bars or four link with a ridged anti roll bar it would have rolled. The leaf springs allowed the body to roll a little and with out that happening the tire probly would have bit hard enough to roll the car.
that was definitely a 10 on the pucker factor if we're on the same page. I almost took a shit for you...lol..red dog would have smashed that other one if that ass wasn't twerkin. no pun. after that launch I seen how it tried to get down but just not enough traction.
Sh#t!! The moment you realize you have to get out of the car and listen to a little harassment from the boys.😄 " Let me buy this one a drink. He likes his SHAKEN N' STIRRED!!😂
"Stomps on the gas... starts to lose control... lifts off the gas.... dick gets hard.... mashes the gas pedal so hard the floorboard caves.... loses control again.... Dick says NO MORE LIFT!!!..... somehow manages to NOT destroy his car.... "
I love how he immediately rolls down the window to let the smell out 💩
Me too then!!!
Rolls the window down because the doodoo smell was thick and heavy....
:)
ken ruffin yup I think he stained his driving suit
ken ruffin thats what i was thinking.
He had to remove and burn the seat too
Toilet boys hood!
Good thing he didn't put it on the roof ! 💩
FOR SALE: Nova drag car, turbo, very quick. Complete car, needs front seat, Best offer.
no concrete wall = saved Nova...
A prepped track = no spin in the first place.
John Wilburn cause you never see a car on a regular drag strip hang it sideways and smack the wall right?
No prep makes it much easier to lose control. Period.
@@johnwilburn answer the question John
@@Colinshreds69 Cause we never see fatal wrecks where the occupants wore seat belts, right?

That guy is lucky he didn't flip it.
The seat foam is still missing to this day.
Mommy

I enjoy the 'almost crashes' like this much more than getting scrapped, particularly when exceptional reactions and skill involved.
I've been watching this video for months...It never gets old.
That was scary. He rolled down his window to take a deep breath😂😂😂

weld aluma stars and a mini tub on that green car. The orange car is a friend of mine he runs 26x8.5x15 alot of the time it.
post it would be cool to see
@@aarondavidson8751 would be nice to know what for engine he has in that nova and what he did in details to built it that way with specs
I like the window roll down, thought he was going to puke out of it :-p
lol
Probably crap his pants, letting the stench out

how long did it take him to clean his shorts out that was an amazing video I'm glad he didn't roll it
rolls window down, drives away like a boss.
BiigTee89 He had to roll down his window to let the smell out after he shit himself.
BiigTee89 he even looked for incoming traffic!! Tru badass
BiigTee89 : )
Stevie Wonder could drag race
Cana box that makes no sense. Go watch hanna montana videos
Need more these 1-2 min drag clips
Exactly‼️ We want more, we want mooooore 🏁

Wow, now that dude totally pedalled that NOVA. Great fkn job. And a beautiful car by the way I must add. My favorite car ever made.
damn good job hanging on and all 4 on the asphalt .That could have been mess ! JJ
Is it me or he went at it again with full throttle after the first warning?

I agree. Flipped my '64 Impala ss at 80ish miles an hour (was going 125), I think I blacked out. Last thing I remember was heading off the road.
100 Percent correct,it happens so fast,you only react as it's coming to a end

Note to self:

Nice save, nice Nova.👍👍
Wow! Looks like he shed some tread at the line. Way to hang on man!

Pucker Factor 10 oh yeah imagine he still pulling that seat out of crack his ass that car has some power awesome video

Legends says, He's still going in Rounds...
He parked that nova like a glove!!!
Allll Righty Then!
He a good driver look the tires how he controls right and left he have control of that situation like a boss
This man can drive!

Yeah, that sounds feasible
How about the self repairing tail light tho?
Holy shit
Wow! If you're gonna spin do it like this. No dirt or even a blade of grass on this Nova!
That's a story that will never die
Corvetteboyz Approved my man did a great job holding her.
Car kind all over the place from green, why was it sooo loose?
Mark Bloom nitrous was going in and out.
That guy cant keep himself from jerking the wheel. Resulted in his own loss of control.
@Hannibal Hyde It clearly shows him jerking the wheel in the video. From your lengthy rant you clearly have issues!
Wish to live there so I could watch that after work :) Nice!
That nova jumped!! Was movin hard
That was a nice save
I can't tell if it has one but wouldn't sway bars help iut
Definitely want more from this event! Wooooo
what Speedway was that at.
Lost his Taco Bell lunch after that ..
So what caused the spin?
Jesus Cletus! He went to his trailer and put done some Budweiser after that I bet!🇺🇸🍺
Mike Shaffer after a shower and fresh underwear, that is.
I feel like the green nova stepped on it even more to avoid the hit😂
Nice save of that beauty
Geez he is so lucky he did not flip it that thing slid like it was on a sheet of ice
Suspension?
Killer save!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know what its like to not want to lift.
Go save dude!!! 2 Pretty Nova's
Man that left front tire damn near rolled right off the rim!
Dam he went for a ride. Bet his heart was pumping after that.
He had to roll down the window to breathe because he shit is pants
WHADDA TARD - that's WAYYYYYYY too much power on those small tires - you are TRULY lucky you didn't FLIP that thing
Damn good bit of luck and skill to keep that baby up right
Now that is driving it like you stole it!
That happen to me at 16 in 1974 red 2 door Nova in the rain except that was a tree driver side, blacked out didn't make it, reborn in 1978
There is a man with more car than skill.
I never want that much power in my Life! 😳
Aw wow great cars + nice videos guys! Thanks
Good recovery Cole
Thats one way to parallel park! 10:10 for creativity:)

He had to wind down that window because of the smell coming from his paints
can always tell who's played around on dirt track,, improves skid skills
I'll bet money those tires had some nice flat spots!
Santa Claus approves of this drag race.
I bet he has to change his shorts
His shorts? I'll bet he had to power wash the interior of that Nova! Haha!
Legend has it they're still trying to dig him out of all the shit.

Between the last vid and this one,they may wanna change the name of the race to "The Squirrelly Nationals"
Thought it was a sprint car ?
That car is squirrelly.
Rolled down the window to let the shit smell out
"You spin me right,right baby right,right..."
Have u never seen a tip in burnout?
that was definitely a 10 on the pucker factor if we're on the same page. I almost took a shit for you...lol..red dog would have smashed that other one if that ass wasn't twerkin. no pun. after that launch I seen how it tried to get down but just not enough traction.
He's did that a couple times taming that beast

"Stomps on the gas... starts to lose control... lifts off the gas.... dick gets hard.... mashes the gas pedal so hard the floorboard caves.... loses control again.... Dick says NO MORE LIFT!!!..... somehow manages to NOT destroy his car.... "
