hot cocoa on the couch posted:i can't see why or how. it's not the first time a car has crossed the finish line in a state that could be described as "crashing". they may change a track guarding configuration or two due to this but those change so often and for multitudinous reasons it could may have already been planned for safety upgrades before any of this i remember from when i was very young some green and white car literally tumbling end over end across the finish line and getting third. it loving rocked

sigher posted:NASCAR is boring as poo poo but man, this is awesome and lol it worked. This is probably going to get banned right? This is probably the only track where it could have worked (except maybe Bristol?) and they only go there twice a year, so it's not an issue for now. My guess is that, as awesome as it was to see one car do it, NASCAR may be concerned about a big cluster-gently caress next season when a quarter of the cars try it on the last lap.

This specific race outcome should also be grandfathered in though as allowed, because it was insanely dope, however ungodly dangerous it may have been.

Mounted flamethrowers and shotguns, track randomly mined, one car is a suicide robot, every driver roided out of his mind. Might as well give the slackjawed rubes in the stands the carnage they’re waiting for.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aioj9NAFOVE i will never waste an opportunity to big up the stadium super trucks series. they put big ramps on the tracks and halfway through each race they throw a flag and make everyone bunch up again so no one can get miles ahead and just coast to victory. all the races in full go on their youtube too.

Doc Fission posted:Can someone explain the physics?

If you go too fast, you'll slide off wide, because the car wants to go straight, in the direction V here:  You can't slide off the road if there's a wall there, so you can go faster

Panic! At The Tesco posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aioj9NAFOVE This is awesome, haha the trucks look cute when they go flying over the ramps. It also gives off major npc driver vibes, like these crazy wrecks are happening but you cant really blame anyone, they just look destined to go out of control.

Racing leagues that operate on sliding and 3 wheel turns are extremely my poo poo.
