Definitely one of the craziest flukes I've ever seen, and the crowd loved the boardslide! I think they went more wild for that error than for any of the wheelies that didn't end in disaster lol. I bet when he watches it back he'll appreciate how close he came to a really nasty end. Amazing bit of driving though ;D

He probably is from the sixties

Any old timers here that remember the stars & stripes corvette wheelie car from the late 60's - early 70's with the perspex floor & twin brake pedals so he could drive it in a straight line. I'm 59 & remember seeing it featured in a load of "Hot Rod" magazines I inherited, the same place I learned all about the Snake & the Mongoose...good times:-)

Great video. It's all about putting on a good show for the fans. Making the fans feel like they got their money's worth for the price of their ticket. I live in ohio and will have to put this event on my calendar for next year.

This is the best bar none

That Chinto driver was amazing

Brian Ambrosini's little Gremlin,, what more can be said,, that little hotrod is a CROWD PLEASER! If memory serves correctly that little hotrod has done a full gainer and unlike this body roll it's been on it's top before. GOD bless him and we're happy he's OK. He'll be back!!

I know I’m not the only one that keeps getting a laugh out of the announcer when he keeps saying this is what you came for this is what you came for.. let’s she if he can get it up ohh yeah he got it up. Sounds like a low budget erectile disfunction commercial😂😂😂😂😂

Korn... 👍 One of my favorite bands.

You would only need one extra mirror on the driver door to see forward. I don't think that would be cheating. Surely someone has already thought of that though. That tap on the wall did more damage than the roll over and it's in the worst place too. Good show.

It's not a race.. its a wheelie contest. lol

Do these cars have a window cut into the floor? Lol.... :-) How the hell do they see?

To quote an American Great. "Hell Yea!!! Brother!!!

Love it omg

They should look into setting those wheelie cars( and trucks) like those modified pulling tractors with the hand operated throttle and individual brakes with right and left brake pedals. And then have a window in the floor so they can see where they are going.
