NASCAR driver pulls 80 Gs in head on crash and walks away
In last weeks race at Pocono NASCAR driver Elliot Sadler hit the inside retaining wall head on at over 180 mph and walked away.
The impact was so brutal it ripped the engine from his car and sent it rolling down the track. The initial wreck involved the #2 car but Elliot in the #19 car gets caught up and can be seen hitting the wall at 1:40 near the end of the video. NASCAR has that little black box that records data which they don't release to the public. However they did announce today that this impact was the hardest ever recorded in NASCAR. The previous record was Kyle Petty at Bristol with an impact of 80 Gs. Hate on NASCAR all you want but you have to give them a thumbs up for creating safety measures that give someone the opportunity to walk away from something like that  |

That was an insane wreck...Elliot is very lucky. For scary NASCAR wrecks, though, my money is on this one:
It's a near toss-up between for this Michael Waltrip wreck and Geoff Bodine's truck crash at Daytona. |

That was a really hard one. Pocono is one of those oddball tracks. Super speedway speeds, but a super speedway it aint. I like bump drafting, but you for sure need to be able to do it right.

The Bodine one is probably the most spectacular one ever. I've seen a photo sequence taken by another photographer that he shot from the infield and it's amazing Geoff survived. The significance of Sadler's wreck is the head on impact creating over 80 Gs on his body. It's a wonder his eyes didn't pop out or his brain hemorrhaged. Sadly, if they had the safety measures back in 2001 that they have today, Dale Earnhardt would have surly walked away from that last lap wreck that took his life.  |

Surprised with an 80G impact there wasn't anything inside him that got wrecked.

if that was 20 years ago when they didn't have Hans etc he would have snapped his neck off and been dead
Whoever runs that track needs to check themselves there shouldn't be a place to go head on into a mound of dirt like that |

He walked away because that was not a head-on crash.

The head on crash is the second car to hit the barrier NOT the #2 car. It is a head on crash because the first thing to hit was his front end and it was near straight on into the barrier. The second driver in the interview is Elliot Sadler who survived the 80 G impact. Very few humans encounter that kind of force and walk away nearly unscathed. A shuttle Astronaut encounters 3Gs during launch and a Pilot taking off an aircraft carrier via the catapult encounters around 6Gs at the highest during takeoff. |
