Please dont talk about what you dont know about. This level is the same as any other and very safe for cars that fly tumble and bounce off each other all the time . If you dont think so look into buying and building your own race car they are very expensive due to all the safety regulations at the tracks constant changes for safety and lawsuits to tracks and manufacturers ..........This track is very good safe and fun to go watch .

g6rcteam How do you know anything about what I know? I don't circuit race but I've been a part of a drag racing team since I was 12 and also race in Autocross. This crash reminded me of Dale Earnhardts crash. And what Nascar did after that to improve their track designs and safety devices in their cars basically eliminated the chance of that happening again. That's why a crash like this should not have the effect on someone the way this one did.

andersons my local

as a close friend of david steele..this is very hard to watch.

I saw Dave race with cars like these twice at new Smyrna speedway. Absolutely thrilling racing. I also saw him at IRP back in 2001 I think. When he won a big bonus for winning both heats the night before the F1 race. He had to start last in the second heat and passed everyone, they let us on the track at new Smyrna to meet the drivers and i was able to talk to him and tell him how awesome that race was. He seemed shy and maybe a little embarrassed I was so complimentary . Seemed like a really nice guy.

It’s crazy how a wreck that looks so minor from the outside can be fatal. It’s sad but I have to think that if he had been a bit more thoughtful about his safety equipment this could’ve been prevented. I know it’s completely different but it reminds me of people who race gutted out, high horsepower cars on the street without even having something as simple as a roll bar, let alone a decent cage and a helmet. Some people will get lucky and survive if they wreck, others won’t. The video from 1320 of the fox body mustang (if I remember correctly) crashing at the pad is the example that comes to mind. I just feel bad for this guy’s family and friends. RIP Edit: I just want to add, sprint cars scare the shit out of me lol. I’ve only ever watched them race on dirt though. Props to those who do it because you definitely won’t find my ass in one those. I mean, I’d drive one around for fun on some flat dirt given the opportunity, but not in a race of any kind. I’m too much of a bitch lol.

I hate how Sprint Cars/Midgets/Mini Sprints/etc have a disproportionately higher death rate than the local stock cars ( Late Models, Sportsman, Modifieds, Street Stocks, etc.). I like Sprint Car action, but get panicky when a crash happens live. You just never know. Probably because they're smaller, more powerful, and have less crumple zones (where the car breaks apart without too much energy being transferred to the driver). But all Dirt/Short Track Formula Car drivers (Sprints, etc), you've gotta respect them. They put their lives on the line for their and our entertainment, that shows how much they love the sport and their selflessness. I knew such a driver who died a few years ago because of that. Josh Burton, #04 Non Wing Dirt Sprint Car driver. A good school friend back in his Super Stock Sportsman days. RIP Dave Steele.

He didn't run a full containment seat. That's actually a pretty hard hit into the wall. With no left side shoulder or head support on a seat, if you get a hit to one side it will throw your body over that way. If I remember correctly, the autopsy said blunt force trauma to the head, but don't quote me on that I don't exactly remember off hand. Which would line, up with the no full containment seat, when he hit he wall pretty hard his head very likely hit also. Also another cause of death could be broken neck. I'd have to go back and look at the report, but I think that was the same cause for Jason Leffler. Also a Hans/head and neck restraint very likely wouldn't have saved either of them. Most head and neck restraints are for forward impact only, some 2 strap restraints like the Hybrid can help in some side to side and a little vertical, but not to the extent of this crash.

It’s important because many current life issues are related to how they died previously. When someone dies in shock. The soul is shocked out of the body. The soul must process its body’s death. When the soul is shocked out of the body in trauma. It can get stuck here for short or long term in this traumatized state. Let’s say you die in your bed. After you take your last breath. You will get up. Just as you did any other day. But you will feel different. Lighter, freer. But you will have to come to terms with your death. The soul usually stays around for a few days. Waits for the body to be buried or cremated. They stick around for family for few days then they leave and go to the light. Typically. Once they go to the light. They will meet with their guides. The soul then goes for a life review. They will review their life through the perspective of everyone else. Every single minute is reviewed. Time doesn’t exist like humans think it does. So that takes a lot less earth years time than it did to live the life. There is no god on a thrown. Sorry church’s lied. We are are own judge. When we die. We loose the ego we no longer forget who we are, where we came from and what our purpose was in that life. We review our own life. We go over the lessons we learned. The lessons we failed to learn and what can be done to correct them. Please don’t open your mouth when you don’t know what your speaking about. Go get some real info instead of listening to what another human being said. Go practice self hypnosis, or with a practitioner, practice meditation with out of body experience go explore the schools we have on the other side. Go to the library, go to the tapestry.

A HANS doesn't do any good in a side impact hit. It is designed to protect for a frontal impact. That's why a window net ( along with a HANS ) is required in SCCA, and NASA also requires a right side net. It's also why a lot of the amature racers I race with are going to full containment seats.

You have no clue. Garrett Mitchell aka cleetus Mcfarland saved Desoto.. it's now the freedom factory. Him and his crew put alot of time and money into reviving it. Without him it would have been another lost short track.

@@alexdodge2515 looks to me like he hit the rear tyre of the car in front which turned him towards the wall. Nobody close enough behind him to spin him.

Freedom factory’s first victim

"Here they go, here they go. No, wait. OK. Here they go. Uh... wait. Now. Here they go, here they go!" And a totally lame vid.

There should be no seat belts or any safety equipment in racing. Then there wouldn't be many crashes. It would be pretty boring though.

Why don't you go watch some sprint car videos from the 50's and 60's. There was way more deaths, no safety equipment isn't going to scare people enough to make them go slower if that's what your trying to argue. The racing sure as hell wasn't boring back then either.

How on earth was that fatal? Was it a heart attack?

Wait....we're talking about the black car, right?? It looked like he barely touched the wall. Sure he didn't have a med issue after being spun out just before the wall??

suggestion: google a pic of the 33, look at the left rear wheel. You should notice that it is about 10-12 inches deep. From the whiplash from the nose hitting the wall, that wheel was smashed flat against the hub, with zero driver containment on the left side. His medical issue came from helmet contact with steel reinforced concrete.
