Whoever runs the SuperCars TH-cam channel is a bloody legend!
Every time there is a stalled car on the grid i remember this day.
Mad to think that just 10 years ago standing starts with the fuel cell hanging out behind the rear axle was considered fine.
And just as Mad to realise that Bad things happen so that good things can be improved.
We silly humans wouldn’t want it any other way.
i was in the stands that would sit at about row 11 or so and i remember feeling the heat of this from 100m away, cannot imagine what it was like in the car or around it...
I bet
I'm just curious why did he throw off his gloves so fast that he had some kind of disorder or was he like shocked and he was just like in
My guess is the gap in the gloves allowed fuel or something similar to penetrative into the glove as there is a gap between the suit and gloves and can become an oven if not careful, example would be romain grosjean in the Bahrain 2020 f1 race and his crash and fireball
@@btun324 i saw the f1 crash but what if the fire got in his gloves
The fire suit and gloves are separate pieces of equipment, so it would be like wearing a long sleeve shirt and a pair of gloves, there will be a gap between the two which In this case fuel can get between and start igniting, so it's basically burning against his skin so by removing the gloves he can air them out to remove the fuel and smother them with his suit or the grass
You have to give massive credit to the engineers from Kelly brothers Racing, The Fair Dinkum teams, HRT and Brad Jones who just leapt over the wall without thinking
I always thought the fuel tank being moved forward of the rear axle was in response to this accident but having rewatched it just now they said it was already planned and this crash simply proved why it was needed.
If you just came here for the thumbnail, it's 5:17
But, you know, just watch the rest anyway.
thanks
Legend :)
Was watching some of the older touring cars the last few days and getting nostalgic, this video is what I needed to see. Easy to understand why COTF was so important. This is what happens when you race actual road based touring cars.
5:11 1st start
40:05 2nd start
I miss the old Aussie Holden and Aussie Ford days. Instead of the Current Mustang Cup. But obviously this can’t happen as Aussie manufacturing is gone. I think it’s time to do truly
international racing with all manufacturers competing in the same format as the past. Then Supercars will survive in the future....
4 or 5 door bodyshells should be mandatory. IMO
GT3 is the future really. DTM proving that right now.
Good luck getting brands to race.
Mustang cup pfft it’s been the Commodore cup for years.
@@mikepearson2367 That’s when the cars were Australian made and not American imports. I suppose there was a different feeling seeing 2 Aussie made cars compete. Seeing the taxi services and police use the same body shells. The series has lost that ‘feeling’. It needs a refresh. Something people connect with. Perhaps current production cars, TC Masters or a truly international flavor may be the answer. I don’t know. But a Mustang vs Opal cup doesn’t appear to be a winning formula in the domestic market....
Whoever uploaded all them videos at ones ....you Sir , are Legend....now I am much more happier.....
I remember watching that crash live. I was in shock! I don't think I said a word before Karl climbed out of that car.
My mum was with me and I can recall her audibly gasping in horror on what we watched.
Even today that crash shocks me.
Back in the days when we had grid girls and packed crowds.
Back when Vodafone actually sponsored motorsport teams
Let's not forget the other sponsors who have since gone out of business.
Nostalgia
Thanks for the upload.
I always love the THATS MASSIVE word at the start though.
to be fair - it was pretty MASSIVE! :O
@@SupercarsChampionship which date this 2011 Perth Supercar Challenge took place? Thanks.
@@purwantiallan5089 May 1st, 2011.
one of the scariest opening crashes.
The BJR Commodores were on fire there!
(Pun was an accident)
A Top Gear Mag article from years ago brought me here. One of those crashes that make your hairs stand on end.
All Upload of the v8 supercars 2009 and 2010 full race please?
I was there that day... crazy scenes
I remember watching on the day thinking the marshal was going to drop to “stalled car” sign from the starter ‘s rostrum. I stopped caring when the fuel cell erupted, that’s for sure.
crickey mate, its bloody hot enough out there already! had to laugh at the roll on the floor, but that was the residual heat transferring through... but lol
To say 'The race that changed supercars forever' is a total misnomer, if not an outright lie. The car of the future was already well underway by this stage, it's even talked about by the commentators at length.
My fav and possibly best track, even tho all tracks are great there you legends.
40:35 - It was epic tho
Amazing what the racing harness and seat can do to protect the neck and back and the race suits from the fire.
cant wait to watch all these races. but will it include bathurst 1000 and the 500 from the years they werent part of the championship? will it include the ausgp and indy goldcoast races that wherent championship? will 2015 onwards be put up at some point? will it include non races like tassie 2017 and goldcoast 2018? will support race be added? will practice qualy shootouts ever be added?
Man, I'd LOVE to see support races uploaded. Those are almost impossible to see from the States
@@SteveHarrellRally well sounds like they will be shown live on youtube as part of superview now.
@@SteveHarrellRally Mate tell you now if you ever come to a event make sure you come to one with Aussie racing cars mate trust me my mates race hard and competitive
40:36 is so satisfying
I remember seeing this race on TV, I couldn't believe it when I saw Karl Reindlers and Steve Owens crash at the start.
Same i watched it live
Fantástica carrera!!👍👍👍
that changed everything forever
I can’t believe nobody has mentioned Reindler started from position 13. He had some luck on his side that day to escape that relatively unharmed
Karl walking to the ambulance has shades of Grosjean’s accident.
Yeah, reminded me of that too, luckily both guys made it out ok 🙌🏽
But Grosjean actually has shades of Karl, because Grosjean crash occurred 9 years later
that crash made me flinched
For 150kmh impact it looks pretty fine. Nothing the Polish couldn't fix and sell as "just from Germany, no crashes, 1 owner".
non-smoker.
no low ball offers I know what I've got.
@@SupercarsChampionship :D
150 no way get real more like 80kph
@@kevysrandomstuff5835 How real do you want to get? The driver says he was half-way through 3rd gear when he hit him.
First gear in these cars goes to 109km/h. You change out of second gear doing 138kph. Third tops at 171kph.
So yes, he was doing about 150 when he hit him.
Reindler ditched his gloves and rolled in the grass pretty quick. I remember seeing this in 2011 and thinking that you can't always see alcohol fire, especially in bright sunlight. I remember wondering if E85 (ethanol) flames on cloth would be as invisible as methanol fire is. The fact of alcohol fire flames being so hard to see in daylight is why whenever an Indy car is refueled (they run on methanol), one of the pit crew squirts the refueling cap area with water after the refueling hose is disconnected--just to make sure.
Oh man I remember watching this live as a tween
at least this happened at the back of the pack, not at the front somewhere. More would have been involved and the race would have been over
Bright got a half decent start 🤯 usually he'd fall back 4-5 positions by turn 1
Race control should be in all drivers headsets on the starts and call out stalled cars on whatever side they sit on. So scary
There’s nothing anyone could have done about this though
standing stars? nothing wrong with that. an exposed fuel cell with basically no protection against a crash in the back? whoever that THAT was good idea? thankfully, they learned from that.
Aaron noonan "thats massive"
Skaife " OH dat maffive" instantly afterwards
Cripes!
Holdennnnnn💪☝👏👏👏👏😍
What's on the sign that the guy in the blue shirt is holding from the starters tower @ 5:14?
I think ever a stalled car or safety car board or even a go board
"Honk if you're horny"
Why was this race important exactly?
5:17
hi, am I the only girl here?
No ur not ima girl
I’m a marshmallow that identifies as a girl
@@Alex-tu9bh lol
No one cares what your gender is
@@Bilko367 well duh girls and boys can watch motorsport and marshmellos
even when a car catches on fire- its still a boring car race compared to the production races we used to watch before the stupidcars change...
People have literally been saying this since the 60s.
