NASCAR's Worst Crashes at Talladega

Спорт

Throughout Talladega's history, there have been many heart-stopping crashes. In this compilation, I did my best to put together a list of some of the worst in history. I most likely left out a few big ones, so let me know which ones you would have wanted to see included. None of the crashes in this video were fatal. Thanks for watching and I will see you all next time!

    The real scary crashes aren't the ones where the cars tumble and fly apart, because that is the energy of the impact being absorbed and dissipated by the car. The real scary ones are where the cars hit a wall hard and come to a quick stop, because that energy is going through the driver

    When I was in basic training, I told this joke to my fellow recruits…Did you hear about some good old boys from Birmingham who went down to Talladega? They saw a sign that said, Talladaga left, so they turned around and went back home. Everyone laughed until we turned around and saw our drill sergeant who was from Birmingham…. I swear I did enough pushups to sent Alabama to South America.

    Do these guys undergo any "crash training"? For example, if you're in a pileup, but can still drive, are you told to go to the infield ASAP to get off the raceway? And if they're involved in a pit maneuver, is there anything the driver can do to reduce his speed and try to get out of the situation?
