While I agree with Murder nova, "It's not just a car, it's a part of you". It was designed to protect you and you standing, is testament to your design and the Cars strength in that design
@@wolfparty4234, No, I meant that the fact he walked away the design of the car helped. I never said anything about the body, all my comments were about the chassis. End of the day the body does what the human body does, just along for the ride. The body staying on, probably protected him from debris, but that's about it
@@wolfparty4234 the fact that the car is steel didn't change anything. The tube frame chassis is why he is where he is today. It has NOTHING to do with the body panels being made of American steel.
The fact the car did it’s job when you crashed and kept you safe shows you guys did a hell of a job building it👍If it’s built by Lutz it’s always top notch stuff.
@@SteveV6206 Everything I have seen him do over the last 10yrs has been really good. I have never seen any half ass work done by him or his son. But I haven’t seen everything he has built so who knows.
As painful as it must be to share this with us, thank you for taking the time to do so. It's interesting to see how your cage held up through such a violent crash. Many years ago we had a desert racer flip and experienced a partial cage collapse. Luckily the driver only had a concussion, but the cage was on the verge of complete collapse. Designs and rules have come a long way in improving safety. Every crash is a learning opportunity. Be safe and go fast!
Wholly Smokes!! Ur' a very lucky man.. Interesting how well you were protected. Keep up the Great Work. You have excellent skills when you can build like this, crash like this and are eager to get right back after it!! Best to you guys.
Much respect to the professional work done by hand welding that frame up! If only I could watch you build the next one in person, man Id learn a few things ! Much respect from a fellow welder all the way in Australia!
Much love and respect to you and your family thank God every thing it's fine with you so sad this happened to someone like you your very like in are house hold as a car guy put even more as a gentleman Good luck with the next one like the saying go's build it better and safer much love from the perez family in Philly
Us ole boys that get second chances can wad em up walk away with grace to race another day Jeff is a lucky but proactive builder and that is a 3rd Go in the GTO. God bless you sir and glad your workmanship is proven again. Safety first was your talent and a solution.. SSL.
Just glad you were ok Jeff!! That was an insane accident!! Sorry to see the 7 down but glad you guys can keep smiling and racing. Wish you the best , bud!
First, thankful you walked away. 2nd, love the plan to respectfully keep the car and give it a place of honor. That car is a warrior, and it deserves to be treated as such.
Wow the amount of carnage done to that car is absolutely mind boggling!!! The great thing to see was just like when Chief crashed the OG Crow the drivers compartment was completely intact. You guys definitely built a great car and it did it’s job really well but holy hell is that thing destroyed. I can’t wait to see the new car when it’s finished and I hope that it happens quickly and goes smoothly for you guys. Thanks for the update.
Jeff you did an amazing job with that cage your craftsmanship saved your life most definitely,those who take shortcuts end up lost or dead,glad your ok and gonna make another masterpiece
That is hard to believe that the cage held up that good. I have been a fan of your racing since the first time I seen you. Thank God you walked away I hope that those that you have helped will help you get back on the racing trail. GO get them. 🤙
Jeff I told you I'm Darlington. I cried too about the 57. In this video you really showed the awesome work you do. Your cars are flawless perfect a piece of art on the outside. You really showed was in the inside an awesome awesome car. You are the man. Thanks for sharing.
Shows how well and tough you built your car to go through all of that and you can still be okay, look forward to the next build that you do and more videos, main thing is your still here
God Bless you Jeff for making it out of that car without getting hurt. I'm so glad that you built that roll cage to withstand that kind of accident. Sorry to hear about your car, but I'm glad you're doing good. God Bless you always. 💯💪🏼👍👍🙏🙏
I'm just elated that you walked away Mr. Lutz. With that type of wreck, it's amazing it still has a heartbeat (engine). The cage is usually (if not always) the 1st thing to get configured & assembled, then never thought of again. Outstanding work Mr. Lutz.
Sorry about your car jeff. Glad your ok. I have an 87 Chevy truck I love in like a family member 😂every time I run it this could happen .it would absolutely break my hart. I have built it from the ground up as a daily /hot rod when it time for that. Me and with my best friend have put hours upon hours in it . I have a lot of hard work and hard lessons learned rolling on those four wheels. It hurt me watching your car get destroyed so I now after your physical wounds heeled it still hurts to loose a piece of history yes. But it also feels like your distorting all that hard work and memories with those you love. It’s not the steel and aluminum that gets wrecked. But everything else you put in it. But really to me anyway what really matters can not bend or break or be tore apart. As long as you made it out ok. Then so did all that hard work, accomplishments, And time you your family and friends put in that beautiful car. That will always be with you. I’m a big fan Jeff. You do amazing things and your humble about all of it. Good luck with your next one brother I’m sure it will be just as bad a$$
It is amazing you as well as other drivers walked away from some of those crashes. Even with all the protection it's hard to believe that the human body can come out of something so violent.
Jeff you are the reason that I’m in to cars, I got given a video of you at drag week when you were racing one of the evil twins! Hard to watch it in that state, you will come back faster I know that
Wow, sad to see the 57 like that. But the fact that you're still here, walking around it, showing us what happened, is a testament to the car build and your outstanding commitment to safety. My shop builds cages professionally. It's heartbreaking to witness the devastation of a bad build when you know it could have been done better. So glad that you're still here to talk about it.
I didn't think you were going to make it past this without paralysation. Congratulations. The safety installations are, without doubt, impressive and necessary. The '57 will be missed, but the GTO is great to see, too. Glad you made out OK.
wow its hard to believe me and my son were at bowling green ky when jeff ran this at the danchucks for the first time we visited the pit and got shirts and he even signed them for us now the car has seen its last race. but as he said its a part of history. glad jeff is okay thats the main thing look forward to the next chapter whatever it may be.
The car is the best advert you could have for chassis building. It did exactly what it was built to do. Go straight,and when the time comes (and it will due to things outside of the chassis control) it keeps the driver safe to drive another day👍
You can tell that the workmanship and cage of this car are second to none. This car saved you Mr Lutz! Good luck Jeff and team i cany wait to see the new car!
My wife and I are a big fan of you mr. Jeff Lutz, we are big-time drag racing fans and hopefully we'll be at the gatornationals, my wife is from the Pittsburgh area, and hope to see you there this summer
I had a 57 back in the day and absolutely loved yours. Very sad watching it barrel role but knowing it was you and your team who put it together I was not too worried about your outcome as I know it was built properly with no shortcuts or poor workmanship. Have seen your new 57, would love to see the canary yellow go back on it. Your my number 1 team and love seeing you move up lists no matter street or strip. Take care and best of luck going forward.
Sad to see the 57 in that state, but Jeff saved his own life with the build quality and craftsmanship that went into the car. Well done Jeff God loves ya 👍👍👍
Seeing the 57 like this almost brings tears to my eyes. But I know for a fact that Senior and Junior are gonna build her back 1000 times better! Can't wait to see her put back together! #LRC
That is nasty... Jeff, glad the car did its job and protected you. You and 57's are a perfect match. I have followed you since the twin black 57's. It's just not the same seeing you in the other car so I am glad you plan on rebuilding again... Glad you got out of this in one piece!
Thats such a same to see your car like that but its good to see that you can still look at it . It gives you an insight as to how much these cars can handle in a crash the build quality is second to none seeing that most of the structural components are still in good shape. Wish you all the best for building another one
Hoo lee shat.... To see the wreck on TV and then get a close look at the carnage.... good work on that cage my man. Cant wait to see what's next on the build list.
I don't know how you do it Jeff and I'm glad your un hurt in the crash and yes your car saved you and did it's job, All the best with the new build no doubt it will be a stunner.
Man, It breaks my heart every time you tear that car up. That's always been the best looking outlaw car I've seen.... I know you can DRIVE, but come on man you're killing me. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
At the end of day jeff your still able to draw a breath of air your a legend to the sport your in & im glad your ok sincere good wishes for & your family & crew in the future keep safe on & of the track people
Jeff watched the crash last night i am so glad that you are ok... yall are doing an amazing job. Have been watching the no prep and street and you really have your shit together. Just wanted to say thanks for all yalls had work and devotion.
Seeing the right rear crumpled was tough to see, (besides all the other sides). Glad you walked away from that roll over spin. Wow - Demonstrates effectively what getting sideways / upside-down at those speeds does. Enjoy seeing your races, know how dangerous it is.
So sad to see such a iconic car in the mess its in. I know you will probably will build another one but its not going to be the same. Much respect to you for getting back in a car and looking forward to seeing you kick ass on the list with the GTO
Looks like you have the makings of a Pennsylvania Farm Truck sitting back there. The world needs TWO orange Farm Trucks going down the track. On a serious note, Glad to see your engineering and chassis fab skills pay off. Nice to know you can trust what you build.
Ain't God good! Ive seen less damage to a vehicle and the passengers all had toe tags! The 57 was one of my favorite cars as well as Jeff being one of tthe best. But in that race, you had the best co pilot for sure.
so sorry to your car like this but at least your ok, although this car is an icon i'm looking forward to seeing more from the GTO. I have a yellow 05 and never see anyone doing much with them until you rolled yours out and started kicking ass with it. The 57 is going to be missed but were all happy that your ok and pushing forward
Hard to watch but thankfully the car did it's job which speaks volumes for the quality of cars you build. Looking forward to watching the new build progress.

It looks kinda totaled it must have hurt when he crashed

Parking that car outside the shop is a great idea. People who are getting work done can see the true level of work that you put out.

Glad you came out ok. Was one of my favourite cars hands down and very sad to see it like this

Good to see your build was satisfactory. A great selling point the next time one is looking for a safe car. I love the tri-5's , grew up around them.
I can't wait to see the next one. Give thanks to the quality fab work.
Thank God you are alive! The car will be sorely missed but you are irreplaceable!
She gave her life to protect yours. I'm so thankful you're ok.

And hopefully he upgrades that BBC Dinosaur in his new car.

Man! I’m so happy you started making vids again! You’re my favorite racer Because you aren’t just some rich guy, you can do it all! That’s bad ass!

Super man thank you for your service sir 🙏
Glad you’re still with the living Jeff keep building as much safety in your car as you possibly can… I’m a fan brother…
Seeing the right rear crumpled was tough to see, (besides all the other sides). Glad you walked away from that roll over spin. Wow - Demonstrates effectively what getting sideways / upside-down at those speeds does. Enjoy seeing your races, know how dangerous it is.
You built one hell of a Safe Car Jeff ❤️
So sad to see such a iconic car in the mess its in. I know you will probably will build another one but its not going to be the same. Much respect to you for getting back in a car and looking forward to seeing you kick ass on the list with the GTO
You built a hell of a chassis man, thanks for the video and keep them coming
I'm glad your alright man! That's one hell of a wreck!
Looks like you have the makings of a Pennsylvania Farm Truck sitting back there. The world needs TWO orange Farm Trucks going down the track. On a serious note, Glad to see your engineering and chassis fab skills pay off. Nice to know you can trust what you build.

Just a testament to your mad welding skills. Cause unlike most these guys I know you do all your work. Beautiful skill brother!! Glad your ok!!
Glad your ok and I can't wait to see the next one you build
Doing good thanks for asking
That’s crazy bad. I’m glad you are ok. That’s a hell of a way to test a cage.
