Being from the US, we get to watch NASCAR, indycar, formula 1 and other sports car series. But when we get to see Aussie v8 supercars, it's such a treat. I can't believe how many massive crashes have virtually no injuries. I mean, these guys hit concrete walls at well over 120 mph and the cockpits are barely bent out of shape. It's crazy
That's because within the cockpit they have the safety cell, but the rest of the cars (which, I think, are based off a chassis, not a pipe-frame) crumbles to absorb energy, plus the HANS-device the drivers are wearing.
Crumple zones, racing harnesses, helmets, steel tubular chasis, rollcages, and a whole lot of stuff you will rarely see in road cars due to comfort > safety.
1:05 the ONE spot where there’s no tire barrier
I think they have tires there now
I think there's tired there now
Tyre ;)
HA, had to.
I wish this kind of racing was more popular in the U.S.
Instead we have circles and straight lines...
@@colecooper5836 one way streets and railroad tracks.
Instead we just put massive wheels on trucks and see if they can drive through a mud pit
Unlike NASCAR, Aussie Supercars look like stock cars.
They do...it’s called NASCAR.
Its amazing how strong these cars are, i wonder how many life's the Hans device has saved
Very true :]
What's a Hans device? (I am actually wondering, not making a joke about my name)
@@hanswangnstvold435 it's a safety device that goes ontop of your shoulder and between your harness that keeps your helmet from ripping your head off in a hard front end crash
@@mothridith9760 haha, ok that does seem really smart. Probably saved hundreds of lives I bet
@@hanswangnstvold435 basically keeps your head and neck strapped together. So if your heads whips forward your whole body moves with it. Otherwise youd break your neck in some crashes.
I had a car slam into wall at Lakeside at about 220kmh, about 20 feet from my face....
It's absolutely terrifying....
You just can't appreciate this stuff until you see them for real
This is what NASCAR could have and should have been.
Thank God for the HANS device. Without it, many of these could be potentially fatal
That's why it's boring now. No deaths=no fun
@@firstnamelastname7319 get in a car mate.
@@firstnamelastname7319 you're messed up on many levels.
Thank god a hansen yunken crane didnt topple over near clipsal afterwards youknow heavy impact earthly vibrations rumbles shakes and crane topples over😈
First name last name Why do you consider deaths fun? I mean, I like seeing the wrecks in motor sports, but not hearing about drivers dying…
That slow-mo outro always gives me goosebumps.
I love it heaps - I want to know the song aha
Same! I don't know it, but want to!!!
And has cancer now
Brings this nolstagic feeling that rips at my chest as i drown in all the memories of my child hood
Motorsports Moments' series on Supercars is awesome!
This is why I am proud to be Aussie
How a driver doesn't die every Supercar race is a mystery to me.
Testament to the sheer engineering and safety features
Glad to see Scott Pye finding much better form at WAU now, he's a talented driver who deserved a good car. And hopefully no more head on crashes, he's had more than enough in his career...
Safety is our number one concern and these cars have proved it
I super appreciate your videos, mate... Because these are all great memories, and they're apart of the history of this once great country, which we can forever re-live... The last great season of the V8's was 2017, Falcons vs Commodores....
I went head on into a tree at 50pmh in 4th gear. It's brutal. Both on your body and your wallet.
Hit a telegraph pole in the wet at 70 kph (43.5 mph), just off centre the middle of the grille. Car jumped and spun to face the other way by the time it all stopped. Pushing the steering wheel away helped avoid any injury. Another time it was straight up the back of another car at 80kph (50mph). 10 kph more and I got hurt. My gut hit the steering wheel and was bruised for a long time. Other car occupant was ok.
I have flown a kart and was not bad until gravity took over. Could not stand straight for 6 months. Still remember my 1st day as a track marshall and guy hit tire barrier and got ejected. Thankfully he was ok . After a trip to hospital and released the pain took 2 days to catch up with him
@Bill Rayvan oh trust me, they are
I once hit a power pole at around 40 MPH. Totalled my brand new car but not injured. Insurance payed for the pole replacement and my GAP insurance paid off the loan. *ALLWAYS* buy GAP insurance when financing a vehicle. It's not that much more a month, but it will save you big bucks if your car is totalled before you've paid it off.
@@genedrakes686 i have seen a dude fall out sideways after drifting into a tire barrier at maybe 40 kmh in a kart, and he recieved only bruises, and was a bit shocked. It was horrible to watch tho.
8:17 The utter sinking feeling of defeat illustrated beautifully.
Saw the title and thought "oh boy, a Scott Pye highlight reel!"
Hi I'm Jake xD so true
Hi I'm Jake HAHAHA
Lol ffs
Or Courtney lol
10/10 for the video bro. Started of with a bang
I dread to think about the level of Gs especially in the clear head-ons. Having been watching many forms of motorsport since the 70s (that's the 1970s you cheeky lot!), head-ons have always been one of the accidents I find the scariest. The HANS device inventor should have had a medal to show how grateful everyone involved in the sport - from the drivers, their families, friends and teams, to organisers, medical teams, marshalls and spectators (I'm bound to have forgotten someone, so please mentally fill in the blanks...) - is for saving so many lives. There should be a Nobel Prize equivalent for inventions and innovations which reduce the likelihood of death or serious injury in any walk of life. I'm certainly grateful for all of the safety innovations that have been developed so far, as it makes watching live motorsport less terrifying and yet more exciting than ever.
Like me, you'd be old enough to remember poor Mike Burgmann getting airborne at Bathurst where the Chase is now and smashing head on into the tire barrier. We're incredibly fortunate that anyone in a similar accident today will probably walk away.
Good onya mate well said 👏👍🏻
Poor Scott Pye. Decent racer but just gets into a lot of pretty serious accidents.
Great video
Great vid. I winced at most of these
Head on, apply directly to the forehead. Head on, apply directly to the forehead.
CodyHGaming I see what you did there lol
Hahahaha...
-_-
sorry, my computer can't show if theres live stream. :c
The crash I find hardest to watch is Paul Radisch at Bathurst. They had to cut the roof off the car to get him out and he broke his sternum in the crash.
8:05 he's outta there
The incident with the Bottle-O car at Gold Coast was almost exactly the same as what happened to Bright in 2004 at the same spot.
0:15 This is what happens when Tander watches COPS right before a race. 🤣
That’s the moment Tander’s career ended 🤨
Well look at where tanders cars is his almost on the left to me it seems as the driver moved over not being he was there so I would say racing incident
@@thatsimracer666 the blue car barely moves to the left at all whereas Tander pulls to the right without ensuring clearance. That's a penalty every day of the week. Even Skaife called that out.
Absolutely a dick move by Tander there 🤦
Big hits in this vid
The beauty of roll cages baby!
4:23. That wall really really moved!
Those drivers have some balls!
Damn - some scary hits here
First! Amazing vid
It's not a race...it's more like Derby Demo!
Scary stuff , lucky these cars are built tough , plus good thing therve got saftey barriers too .
This Compliation is THICC
This kind of racing is far better than the current stuff that Nascar is putting out today.
Gotta love the Oz cars . BIG motors in itty bitty bodies!
I haven't watched much Supercar racing in the last few years because I've not been in Aus. But in watching this compilation, a couple of little things come to mind. 1) In what fucking Bizarro World is there a section of a circuit run off that's shallow sand and totally naked concrete? That is completely unacceptable. And 2) if commentators are speaking in low, somewhat apprehensive tones in the wake of a potentially injurious (or worse) incident, maybe it'd be a smarter move to run the replay without advertising the mildly spicy, overcooked chicken burger from the fucking Colonel.
Finally what we were promised at 2:57! I was starting to think the title was clickbait.
So head-on into concrete isn't a hit?
Go hard or go home, nothing like a Aussie v8.......🤩
These are the scariest accidents
WATCHED BATHURST LAST SUNDAY!✌🏼️😂
Brutal.
How about the 2014 race. You had, one of the Nissan’s gone into wall twice, and chat in the wall twice but yet again, they finished the race 😂😂😂
And in the podium i think
This is why v8 are so much better than NASCAR because it's real racing not going in circles
steven langley dtm is better
I thought the same about nascar until i watched a whole season. they are going around in circles, but every turn is a strategic move that makes the whole race feel like a game of chess.
Some times they turn right. When they’re crossed up.
*oval
Two very different motor sports, I love both. Give nascar a chance really get into it and learn the technicalities of it, once you do, you may really love it. Watch whole races from the 90’s. Aerodynamics and pit teams play sooooo much more in nascar than they ever will in supercars.
But at the same time it’s absolutely amazing how our awesomely heavy V8’s can even make it around a corner at high speed true magicians are our Australians, kiwis to be able to handle them.
I say again, these supercar drivers are demolition derby drivers. They hit anything, anytime, anywhere!
Looks like a lot of these guys use the pit maneuver.
These tracks are going to get somebody killed. Hitting walls head on crazy
Doesn’t look flat, Richo. Doesn’t look flat to me….oh, ok you’re off
1:00 the photographer never looses a shot ...finger on the trigger until impact :D
Why do alot of those concrete walls in the runoff areas not have a tire barrier.
Does the ending song have a name?
4:18 This happened right in front of me. It was the first practice and saw Whincup sidelined for the weekend. We were joking with the cameraman afterwards about needed clean undies
In the fence HARRRD
Who is your favorite v8supecar driver mine is Lowndes no888
"Doesn't look flat to me... okay copy that. You're off"
0:42 1:05 Paul Radisch broke his ankle in these crashes
After moving to australia i thought this was what holdens were for, crashing into things...
Definitely head on🤦♂️
What?
great stuff! thx for no music!!
1:07 that concrete is bad ass
Surprised that the calder park 1999 crash with craig lowndes was not featured
WILSON!
intro song???
One that should be here? Kevin Bartlet's crash at Bathurst in 1982 at basically the same spot as the one here.
For crying out loud, he was on his roof after a wheel failure.
Just dozens of reasons the get rid of the stupid gravel traps.. It has been proven time and time again that asphalt will allow a car to slow much more than gravel traps, especially at speed when the car tends to 'plane' on top of the sand/gravel instead of dropping in to it.
I get that it will remove the penalising aspect of going off track so my thoughts are to add foam boards to create reentry chicanes that must be followed to avoid penalty and use unfixed tyre barriers in situations where the car would need to be slowed due to break failure. Regardless, all of the drivers know to smash down the gears to put the car into a spin.
I've learnt never to drive a green Ford.
8:06 bloke in black jacket... Fight or Flight!
2nd video. Penalised doesn't make up a $400,00 write off
Very scary to watch.... Hope no serious injury to any driver there
I’m sure Murphs crash was no sand trap, no tyre barrier and likely no HANS device. Brutal
Definetly had a Hans device.
Well MEGARTOS CHANNEL from 1997 to 2004 they had no HANS device
@@danielholmes8141 good job that was a Ve Commodore which started production in 2006 then 🤦♂️
I can't help but think it, then say it, then write it when I hear a bit of ecksawdud strayan kommuntree.
Fack MOOY!
Aussie racing, head on collision caused by stuff up with car, American racing, head on collision caused by dirty racing
What is that song called.
I heard winter bottom a lot...... This could have been called turned around crashes.....
The tire barriers don't do much. They need the NASCAR safer barrier.
So which series is that and how to follow it?
Australian V8 supercars.
LONG history, very different to what they used to be when just production cars with a roll bar checked in.
I know you can get them on some specialised sports channels in the USA.
Usually run from March to October.
If you EVER get a chance, watch Bathurst 1000, at Mount Panorama. It's a bloody public road.
Both ways...
I've driven it. Lots...
Gotta cruise around to check for cops first...
It is LEGENDARY in Australia
5:30 like a nuclear bomb
Big crash
It be like OOOOFFF
That first one was way out of line. There’s no SAFER or tire wall to cushion the blow there
How much is a penalty for the first clip
Serious and possibly stupid question: why don't they have airbags or similar things in place in racing cars?
Because they have helmets bruh.
2 plain and simple reasons. 1. a 5 point harness keeps you pretty solidly in the seat.
2. Adds weight..weight is bad
2:45 waving a GREEN flag? Oof
It's always a Kelly involved.
First crash, blue car moves down on red car and gets himself turned. Announcers blame red car. Every racing league has blind announcers.
Its crash test?
Those Paul Radisich crashes are terrible. They should never have had that wall at 45 degrees and why weren't there tyres all the way along that other wall.
Funny driving school. So many colored cars...
That one with the blue car is actually against the rules that guy got disqualified he took him out intensionally
Edit: could have been attemted murder
Beam NG real life
Try banger racing
Who else is mad beacuse winter bottom changed to holden
He didn't change to Holden at all. He signed with a team which runs Holden equipment. This Ford and Holden stuff is bloody childish.
Steve W Rogan soz
Don't you think it is though?
Look at McLaughlin, started with a team running Holden equipment, then signed with a team which ran Volvo equipment, and now has a contract with a team which runs Ford gear. These guys go overseas in the off season - and during the season - and drive many variants of brands. I follow drivers in the series right across the brands, Nissan, Holden, and Ford, it doesn't matter. It's driver and team that matters. Besides, there's nothing Australian about Holden or Ford these days anyway.
@@Broxin7 scotty was in the same team when he ran the Holden and volvos
@@marcussimo2004 that may be the case and clearly, he drove what the team ran. It's this notion that a driver is some sort of traitor because either the team changes their equipment or the driver signs with a new team that's just ridiculous.
didnt the 2nd one die from that
jeffhardy4454 Plays no, broken ankle from memory
A lot of injuries to the rat but is still alive as I type this.
No SAFERBARRIER in Aus eh
Bill Buehner nah mate, I think we need them but, at the same time I don’t know because it could lead into something else which can be unsafe, I’m just unsure about a saferbarrier in Supercars.
There's right hand corners too! something else you wouldn't get
Shane Riley SAVAGE!!! LOL, I’m Australian but I’ve watched some Nascar and IndyCar and they do road courses so they just don’t go in circles they do go to actual race tracks.
I don't think saferbarrier would work as well as tyres in a head on crash into a wall. It works well for nascar/indycar, but most of the hits into the fence on ovals are glancing, not head on.
0:55 which muppet designed THAT course? No energy depleting curve, or side impact into a long wall of tyres, just a head-on: really? There are unusual ways to be ejected into a head-on, but not just driving off the circuit. Jeez.
Motor racing is dangerous don't be a snowflake
@@Hughjanus720 Worst possible take
The turn was added after someone died there in 1986. My opinion: REMOVE THAT TURN! ITS MORE UNSAFE!
Bollocks commentator, first guy just held his line , " turned him" mmm not so much
How was Tander ever allowed near a racecar after that one is totally beyond me. Only technology avoided him being up on manslaughter.
I agree, Intentionally punted him
Man i had to stop halfway through it made me cringe :o
yo its not head on tho eh
some of these look intentional and the drivers should be disqualified
WTFKING wrong in a first case that's totally crime act.
See what happens when you drive on the wrong side of the car?
Yea you'd be in a NASCAR race
Do you really think the drivers seat being on the right side effects driving? How idiotic can you be to think that? God..
