Fun fact: Chad McCumbee played the role of Dale Earnhardt Jr in 3: The Dale Earnhardt story.
I often wonder what Chad is up to these days. I remember him in the movie 3.
@@jimsoutdooradventures2748 he actually just ran a CARS Tour race at Hickory Speedway on August 1st.
He scored P5.
@@sideslick1024 cool, thanks for the info!
I was a big McCumbee fan when he was running for Petty and running that 8 truck. One of those drivers that got better results than he should have given the equipment
Why didn’t they just have dale jr himself do it
Well, let's take a look at why these were forgotten.
1. Kurt Busch Kentucky Crash in 2000: The inaugural Truck race at Kentucky had a long rain delay. i think they ended up airing most of it (including this crash) on tape delay in the middle of the night. 3:30 a.m. on basic cable doesn't lend itself to a lot of viewership, now or then.
2. 2001 Pepsi 400: Honestly, the series returning to Daytona for the first time after Dale Earnhardt's death and Dale Earnhardt Jr. winning probably overshadowed everything. That's pretty much all that most people remember from that race, along with Allen Bestwick's call at the finish.
3. Boris Said at Sonoma, 2002: Admittedly, I missed this race back then. Am I surprised that Said binned it? Not necessarily. He could be wild at times. Is it surprising that people forgot about this incident? No, especially since he was able to drive away.
4. Jeff Fuller at Kentucky in 2005: It was a standalone event with FOX Sports' B-team on site. The whole event just didn't have prestige, even though it did draw well at the time. That said, it was frightening to watch and Fuller was never the same. He only raced sparingly afterwards.
5. The Robert Mitten crash: This occurred during a practice session that was not aired on television, I believe. The clip here was aired prior to the start of the race. NDS Motorsports didn't have a backup, so they withdrew. Something like that happening outside of a race just doesn't have the same impact, regardless of how wild it was. Also, CTMP wasn't bundling their tire barriers together at the time. Instead, their setup was like a more orderly 1990s Sonoma setup. Crazy things can happen in that situation.
6. 2013 Truck Big One at Talladega: I don't consider this to be overlooked at all, knowing that Kyle Busch went head-on into (and broke) an unprotected concrete wall.
7. Chad McCumbee's GWC wreck at Texas: Yes, this is overlooked. You never really hear much about past Texas truck races unless you're referring to Todd Bodine, Brendan Gaughan, or when Kyle Busch lost his mind in 2011.
8. 2014 Crafton at Dover: It is, and basically for the reasons given in the video.
9. 1995 Martinsville Carelli wreck: I knew what this was the moment it showed up, but we're getting towards 25 years ago now. A lot of fans don't know about the early years of the series.
10. 2009 Eric McClure at Memphis: Another standalone race. This was just another one of McClure's bad wrecks. He had something like 4-6 really bad wrecks over a span of about 5 years. Sadly, stuff like that has really taken a toll on him.
You actually took the time to write this!?!?

4:05 The most underrated crash in Nascar history
He hit so hard that the left side had more damage than the side that actually hit the wall
Did u copy that comment from a video? I remember a comment saying the exact thing except the most underated crash in Nascar history part.
UsefulTuber No I didn’t lol
@@Nascar4Life oh okay
He pancaked the wall and destroyed the entire chassis, it was a scary hit in every way.
Check this one out; similar hit:

@@svech37 The one on the final lap of the duel
@@stephenpuglisi2946 ohhhhh i thought that was qualifying though because nascar was dumb enough to do group qualies at daytona
@@stephenpuglisi2946 did he use that car for the 500 i think he could of
That Truck wreck at Talladega actually shook Kyle Busch up pretty good, I never knew that till recently
Where did you hear or see that ?
I like the fact that there are so many forgotten crashes that u put on here that even I have forgotten about but now finally able to see!! Keep up the great work!!😀😁
You should do a video on NASCAR Fights
This was a great topic for a video. I enjoyed it. Thanks!
I like the commentary type videos I hope you keep doing them
The Pepsi 400 crash was from 2001 not 2000
I was gonna say the same thing. The 2000 Pepsi 400 was a CBS broadcast, the 2001 was the first under NBC's 2001-06 contract. Plus, Dodges in the field, which wasn't the case in '00.
@@carcrasher88YT plus Harvick is in the 29
@@grantcameron3646 Kurt Busch in the 97 car, Valvoline sponsoring a Pontiac could only be Johnny Benson, and I saw Mark Martin in the silver and blue Viagra car. Could only be 2001.
@@grantcameron3646 plus you can see the Napa 15 car which wasn’t a car in 2000
Accurate
Definitely do more of these wrecks
Where was Austin Dillon’s wreck at Talladega in 2013?
Also, I totally forgot about the Robert Mitton wreck!
The Steve Grisom wreck a Atlanta is the most forgotten wreck in my mind. Nobody ever mentions it or is it featured in any videos
Nice video!
Idea for the 2nd one: Rick Carelli at Memphis
4:14 I can almost guarantee if he hit drivers side he would not have survived that. Extremely lucky
Great video!!!
Although they are more well known the 3 worst crashes I've witnessed was Mike Harmon at Bristol, Michael Waltrip at Bristol and Geoff Bodines crash at Daytona in the truck series. How any of those guys survived is miraculous although I'm really glad they did.
epic
2:10 that crash looks like Kyle Larson crash in The 2017 Coke Zero 400
Larson didn’t hit head on
i feel like the 2002 big one at Darlington is kinda forgotten
Jeff Burtons rookie year crash in the inside wall in the #8 Raybestos car is definitely under appreciated. 1995 iirc, wayy before safer barriers.
Gonna have to put Algier's crash last saturday at RA in a video... that was a wicked hit. Another place where you don't see people usually hitting the wall, so no tires.
4:10 I always thought this was one of the hardest crashes in NASCAR history and I'm quite surprised it isn't looked at on the same level as Eric McClure Talladega and such
The wreck at Talladega back in the late 90's (i think) where they went over the turn 1 wall.
the "coming to pit road at a superspeedway" crash always gets forgotten 🧐
BRUH. I STILL REMEMBER THAT CANADIAN TIRE TIRE BARRIER CRASH IN THE THUMBNAIL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember the Pepsi 400!
I outsmarted you I remember the thumbnail
NASCAR NEEDS TO BRING BACK THE DIGGER CAM. CHANGE MY MIND
1:26 Correction: This wreck took place during the 2001 Pepsi 400
3:54 "wreckognition"
If you do another one you should include the forgotten recent near flip big one by Eric Jones I think it was at Kansas in 2017
DarcyF1 is a goldmine for rare NASCAR crashes
Another wreck that could be on here is truck series wreck at Bristol when a truck damaged the fence and went on it’s side in 1996.
On the second crash you said that was 2000 but correct me if I’m wrong there is a 29 car in it which did not race in 2000. I looked up the race results for that race and there was no 29 car on that list. Edit: yep that second wreck in from the 2001 Pepsi 400 not the 2000 one
Fun Fact: You can see Jeff Fullers (idk how to spell his last name) wreck in almost any recently (within 6 months) made comp
lol we need NASCAR youtubers from the 90's
Man i forgot about some of these thank god for saftey equipment
Enjoyed the video but I didn't like the audio for some of the wrecks being covered up by the commentary. The commentary itself is not a problem at all, but it shouldn't overlap the initial live part of the crash. That takes away from the raw reactions that the commentators have that aren't in the replays following.
Noted, thanks!
No wonder they’re so underrated because they’re all truck wrecks
if you wanna make a part 2, I have a whole playlist of these
I might take a look at it, thanks!
@@nascarfan4888JJ great video I watch these crashes great content
nascarfan4888JJ Jamie McMurray, Jefferey Earnhardt Talladega 2017
@@nascarfan4888JJ i love these type of videos
I haven't looked at your lists, but I'd have a couple nominations if he does a part 2 as well.
1993 Diehard 500 had 2 list worthy wrecks. The 1st was the Big One where Jimmy Horton rolled over the wall and down a dirt bank in turn 1, which led to NASCAR instituting catch fences in the corners (a lot of people may want to forget this wreck as Stanley Smith was critically injured in the crash--though he survived he never raced in Cup again). Most NASCAR fans remember Bobby Allison (1987) and Carl Edwards (2009) going into the catch fence in the trioval, but a lot fewer remember Neil Bonnett going into the catch fence in the trioval in this race in his return after being injured in the 1990 Transouth 500.
1997 spring Atlanta (the last race before it was reconfigured into a cookie cutter) where Steve Grissom hit the inside wall on the backstretch so hard he knocked the fuel cell out of the car which slid all the way out to the outside wall and erupted into flame after a car ran through the gas after the cell ruptured as well as broke the inside wall.
Newer fans may not remember the spring 1994 race at Talladega and Mark Martin's wild ride through 2 fences and a guard rail before finally coming to rest against another guard rail. Benny Parsons having fun at John Kernan's expense at the end of Mark's interview after he came out of the infield care center was gold too ("There are some places he can't talk about on television, don't you understand?")
David Reutimann from Texas in 2004 is another forgotten one
what track did that eric mcclure crash happen at?
4:56 thats the weridst airborn crash i have ever seen in nascar
I like these new commentary videos!
Thanks bud, more to come!
Wow Almorola and Crafton had the same crash at dover
Volume's a bit on the low side for your voice
Don’t let that crash distract you that Boris Said once finished 15th at Daytona
Nobody talks about Ricky Cravens ‘96 Talladega crash
Needs to be new series
How about Forgotten Great Finishes?
Show Steve Grissom s crash at Atlanta in early 90s that was a bad one
i have a piece of the 53 truck from ctmp
4:05 is not forgotten i have no idea what you're talking about 5:15 isnt forgotten either
Carelli’s wreck looks like Clint bowyers wreck at dover in 2011
volume issues had to turn my computer up to 100% just to hear
That was a perfect reply of Crafton’s wreck at Dover that for some reason you decided to cut short right before he hit the wall. Nice job.
2000 was also geoff bodines crash
Is #9 Mansfield?
It’s not forgotten if you’ve never seen it.
There was a crash I believed to be in the trucks where a truck pretty much rode the fence with a huge fireball behind him I dont rember what year and I dont know if the dude survived it went under red flag and everyone was silent
That's Geoff Bodine in 2000 at Daytona and yes, the guy survived.
Chad chaffin 2005 Daytona WRECK
2:41 how the 31 didn’t blowover idk
alot of these are forgotten due to the year it was and how bad the screen looks
Rick Carelli is a former southwest tour driver that raced against my non blood related uncle
people don’t remember it because it was so long ago
2nd video is from 2001 not 2000.
Remeber Aric almorola 2017 that was bad and it doesnt get anything really
The number 9 underrated crash that’s the 2001 Pepsi 400. Not 2000.
The only addition I'D make would be the 2009 Daytona 500, where Earnhardt Jr. gets himself a lap down, spins out Vickers, and causes a 10-car crash that takes out race leader Kyle Busch. The odd thing about THAT wreck was that it was still where the race leader and other lead-lap cars would line up BESIDE lapped cars (hence why Kyle Busch was in a position to be involved in the incident), and no driver recieved the lucky dog because Earnhardt Jr., who would've recieved it (would've been Vickers because he was originally ahead of Jr.), was involved in the accident. That crash gets little attention, despite its implications for the future of the sport, such as the change to leaders lining up at the front, which was implemented later in the same season (a response to the positive feedback such restarts in the All-star race had gotten from fans).
1:27 thats not 2000. Dodge didnt come into NASCAR until at least 2001
What about the 2000 truck race at Daytona. One of the worst wrecks ever.
I'm actually early
I don't care!!!
1st
No one cares!!!
I honestly think kyle Buschs barrle roll in 2005 is pretty forgoton
these are very irrelevant crashes that only have images
Some have no actual footage
Have a great day, God bless, Jesus Christ loves you all, John 3:16 God so loved the world that He gave His One and Only Son to whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life
A way to improve these comentary style videos is to stop doing them when they aren't needed. You aren't really adding to the experience by interrupting the flow with trivial info that, while not explained by the crashes themselves, don't need to be explained in such detail. Can't help but notice your video is also stretched to the 10 minute mark, an odd choice considering you aren't really make money off of crash compilations
