For those wondering, this camera angle is actually only an additional shot in a regular series called "The Low Budgets", it's intended to be a back-up shot for every other camera on track (approx. 20). SEE FOR YOURSELVES: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xh0pkMgl7sg.html
HAHA, I saw that too, the guy in the cougar.... he got in there and could tell he was smokin the tires inside with the plume of smoke coming out. Not sure if he blew the engine or why he couldn't back it out all the way and keep going.
Last time I was at a trailer race they didn’t remove the fibreglass insulation from the walls of the trailers. They started to smash apart and the whole crowd was covered in flying insulation dust and breathing that crap in. It was awesome to watch but I had to go home to shower and wash my clothes.
Very disappointing, too. If you're on that track and you're still mobile, you're fair game. You can expect to get smacked. British "banger" racing is considerably more intense in this regard.
YT never fails to amaze and entertain... just when one reckons they seen all the types of races there are, then there is this. If this isn't bogan, I don't know what is! Absolutely would go watch this kinds of stuff in person lol!
The awesomeness of this is only exceeded by the awesomeness of watching it. Road trip check list: 1) - Irwindale 2) - Alcohol 3) - A rented truck & rv trailer. 4) - Awesomeness!
Glad you said that this camera was a back-up or additional camera. It was obvious by crash sounds and spectator reactions that some good stuff was happening outside the camera shot. I’ll have to open the link you supplied to watch the other cameras angles.
I thought when you lost the trailer you were out and had to stop? But the car pushing stuff does an amazing job back after 2 years and I got to wonder where that old caddie went
Amazing how much damage is occurring and they aren't even moving fast more like slow motion racing lol The guy in the dark blue caddy I'm guessing that must be his moms or grandmas car that he barrowed lol
OK I read through a few comments... Well done 96 you seriously had me in knots laughing, no 16 what a champ also, helped out other guys and have a but of a craic, the guy with jet-ski thingy.. BLAH waste of time.. No fun :)
Hey this is Great!! The audio is just right. I can hear every crash, crunch, grind and screech! And I've been led to believe that California no longer knows how to have fun! Very Entertaining!
I love the blacktop tracks ! The one near me that was black top it's whole life since the 50s was ripped out by the new owners and had to go dirt because every track in 50 miles was dirt and the new owners wanted to be more concentrated on local small time weekend racers . I haven't raced there since. Any old boy can play in the dirt but it takes a real man to get out of the dirt and run with the big dogs and be good at it.
Safety improvement, a mechanical lens red could be placed on sports light and be triggered via a signal system, so when a red flag happens the switch puts the red lens infeont of the light casting everywhere or something similar... For people to stop slow for recovery in process.
Asking my CONgressman to introduce the Department of Demolition Act of 2017 where no man shall have to work for a living when he can instead guzzle beer and do this all day.
I think major RV manufacturers should supply RVs for a race and let these guys road test them here although it probably wouldn’t be much of a race as most of them would fall apart half way around the track!😅
i am surprised they let the one guy drive with the ramp to the trailer down. i would be afraid of someone hitting that ramp at high speed and launching, "dukes of hazard " style.
Just curious , every other trailer derby ive seen , if you drop your trailer , your out , why are there so many vehicles still racing after they're trailer fell off
aliens finally arrive on our planet landing in irwindale speedway the night of 12-3-16. aliens: we come looking for intelligent lif.... aliens: (slowly backs away)
Have to bite, but once your trailer has been destroyed, aren't you out of the race? Seems like there were other guys still racing around trailer less. Also that black car with the lights looked a little too nice to be in this event.
The yanks have learnt that going in a circle makes banger racing more fun ! All the need to learn now is hitting into other and going fast makes it worth watching
very bad camera man and video is too quiet. camera man is like half asleep .. when crowd goes like ooooohhhh .. then he's like uh oh WHAT? WHERE? and shaking the camera around lol ...
