This is absolutely nuts. Vintage film of race car crashes. No roll cages or seat belts or any safety gear. Simply amazing footage! I wonder how many of these guys died! And, the fans and camera men are right beside the track ... crazy!!!

I remember, as a kid, at the local airfield, they held stock car races in an empty field and the only thing that separated the crowd from the track on the straight-aways was a rope stretched across posts. One could almost reach out and touch the cars as they sped by. Looking back, CRAZY!! At the time, par.

Racing has always be a dangerous sport to get into. I have been into racing all my life (on the side) and have seen many changes for safety.
Yep, how it started....by the time I started driving Stock Cars (1972), it was much, much safer. It has still progressed to be even safer since I retired from driving them (1990)....Great Link.....

It probably safer to fall out of those cars then to stay with them... Ouch!!

It still looks like that in some of the road races around the world. We'll soon not even have drivers in the USA. You know, for safety.
The only reason some people are still alive is it's illegal to shoot them.

Wonder if others felt this way? "I hated to see it end. Could have watched that for much longer".
