Little known fact. Each driver uses a piece of coal in their ass to produce a diamond by the end of the race at which point they sell to repair/rebuild any damages before the next race.
+Toypop194 Wow!!! Thanks for sharing!!! :O
+Toypop194 Oh! It's because their butt is puckered so hard they're pinching a hole in their seat, right?
+Toypop194 take my +1, take it and enjoy it
LOL, you've got a +1 from me, too! Brings me a higher understanding and appreciation of the sport. I'm also thinking that diamond would do a lot towards re-building one's sanity and nerves, as well as any automobile repairs. XD
you sir have truly an outstanding humor!
Now all we need is a gopro version of this
I've seen other videos on youtube of in car footage of this.
3 hours?
3 minutes was already way more than enough
This is what self driving cars is going to look like
+Th3uNn3rV3d but with more crashes!
+thooke222 Actually not, since they would be able to communicate in real time and avoid any collisions even without decelerating.
Dirty Poul You place much faith in those droids. I've had enough experiences with computers and other technology making mistakes that I'm not hopping on the autonomous car bandwagon.
+thooke222 i've had enough experience with human drivers not even paying attention to the road to know that those mistakes will be relatively small in comparison and increasingly rare as time goes on.
thooke222 AI makes mistakes if you program if the hardware breaks down or if there is a bug. You can bug fix and make sure it does not make a software related mistake. Hardware mistakes are impossible to completely correct, but it is far more stable than human focus, and thus makes far less mistakes. Go look at the Google self driving cars. There have been 11 accidents with them so far. All of them were caused by another car not paying attention, and they were all minor accidents such as a scratch or so. Look it up.
Computers making mistakes are most likely because you made a mistake with the computer, or some other human error. If you aren't on the autonomous bandwagon, maybe you will when an AI takes your job.
Adam Radiske - thanks for posting. I had lost interest in racing until my son found this video and posted it on my Fb page about 2 years ago. It reinvigorated my love for Figure 8 racing, and I attended the 150-lap Outlaw Figure 8 World Final race in FL the past 2 years. Now I am looking forward to traveling from Long Island, NY to Indianapolis to attend my first World Championship 3-hour Enduro on September 8, 2018. Got my tickets, hotel reservations, and can't wait to cross it off my 'bucket list'. Hope to see you there! Thanks again :^)
Happy to hear that sharing my experience has helped re-spark your interest. The World 3 Hour at the Speedrome is definitely a must-see event. After going for my first time in 2014, I promised myself I'd never miss it. Now, with my wife being pregnant and due at any time, the 13hr road trip is out of the question. But I will be watching it through pay-per-view this year with hopes to pick up where I left off in 2019. Enjoy the race and the experience!
Curious, did you make it for the 2018 race? Weather wasn't great but they got it in. Thoughts?
Adam, we did make it to the 2018 race and endured 2 days of rain delays. 2022 will mark our 5th straight year attending the 3 hour, the most exciting event on the planet. Hope you can make it!
i couldnt watch more than 2 mins of this. my heart was beating too much. this is beyond crazy
WHERE ARE THE WRECKS DAMMIT
why not give them guns too?...
murica, fuh yeah :D
Good gracious I'm 61 years old and this is the first I have ever heard of figure 8 racing. Well really I was watching American Pickers and one of the "Pickees" used to race which brought me here.
Glad you liked it.
Looks like some Asian traffic intersection.
Average commute in Mumbai.
This was in Need for speed Shift. Kicked absolute ass! :p
+philip danielsson agh, are you kidding me? the figure 8 sucked arse, the speedway was the best
How the HELL do these guys have the nerve to do this? I don't know but I'm sure glad they do I LOVE it. Thanks for posting :^)
I had no idea anyone would be this crazy and this skillful... just stunning.
Thanks for sharing.
I would love to see some footage from an aerial view, looking directly down onto the centre intersection.
This is awesome and I have an idea for Suzuka renovation.
September 8th, 9th, and 10th 2016 I can't wait!!!
3:47 That white car on the right cheated :D
there are a few that cheated
+msul78 Those cars that "cheated" did not get their lap counted so they weren't really cheating. They just didn't see a gap in the traffic and chose not to wreck.
+msul78 1:45 There is another coward cheating too. Looks like an intersection in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Kinda disappointed. I expected the mother of fuck all crashes to happen.
+toutagamon Me too but I'm more amazed at how skilled the drivers are to not actually cause a crash to happen, incredible reflexes of throttle and braking I would imagine.
toutagamon same
Plz tell me it's a computer generated special effect-film. Or does these type of races actually take place? I must admit, I had no idea. Looks.... hm... challenging and ... hm.... with a slight potential for impacts.
+Kent Löfgren no this is real
I had honestly never seen it before. Wouldn't mind spectating though.
+Kent Löfgren I would highly recommend going Kent. I've been a Figure 8 race fan all my life and raced them for a dozen years or so (nothing like this). Once you see the World 3 Hour, you'll bee hooked and go back each year.
+Albury Smith Ha ha, I had never hear that one before. Will steal it.
+harry 01 used to go there every year for this when i was a kid
this is awesome stuff! Crazy crazy pilots!!
The ultimate Darwin-Race
Adam... Fox Sports 1 would love to use this video for our show and online? Would we be able to use with the proper courtesy?!
Of course. Anything to help promote local short track racing.
+Adam Radiske Awesome, thanks!
+Assignment Desk if you could share any info about the broadcast that would be great.
+Assignment Desk They would like to ? You sure though ?
+Adam Radiske how many wrecks were there????
This is the most intense thing I have ever seen, holy shit
great cooperation!
Haha I remember figure 8 races but they used demolition derby junkers and it lasted only a few minutes. These look like legit race cars.
+Dethmeister Yes they are race cars. tube chassis, unlimited horsepower. Some of these cars have $20,000+ in them. Wrecking is something they try not to do.
madness
No crashes, amazing.
The whole thing is unbelievable.
AAAAHHHHHHHH!!! How tf.... STRESS. I FEEL MAJORLY STRESSED AND OBSCENELY ANXIOUS!
that's stress for pilots! =) I like it! =) I think it will be the most popular sports event in my coutry.
This is madness!
ОЙ ой ой что делается. мурашки даже за экраном. Как чувствует себя гонщик!?
I made a theory for why some racers are "cheating". Now I don't know anything about Figure-8s so don't take my comment too seriously, but based on observation they aren't actually cheating. They are actually trying to "restart" the lap they are in. As said in previous comments the cars have electric transponders so they can never cheat the system. All they are doing is restarting the lap for another chance to pass through the middle intersection again. When you think about it, this type of motorsport actually requires a little more thought and strategy. Truly interesting
At first I thought this was amazing and intense, then I realized there's no difference between doing this and driving down Sunset here in LA.
Maybe it would be cooler if they went a little faster.
This guy^.
INearlyShirtMyPants These cars are fast u idiot
Again, no difference between this and driving down Sunset. Shit, it could be Wilshire, Hollywood, Western, Crenshaw, Lincoln, basically any 5 lane street in LA and it's about the same amount of dodging and avoiding.
And be careful calling people an idiot when you can't even spell the word "you", Garrett.
ahh, the NASCAR for advanced players. There you only turn left, but here it's also right. Those guys must really be skilled.
I wish I was one of these guys, I would never need to stop at a red light again.
IT REMINDS ME OF DRIVING IN ATLANTA, GA.
how do they keeps track of who's in the lead
Holy shit that's intense!
Very!!!! I attend this EVERY year in Sept. in Indianapolis....
El día que descubran los semáforos!
I won this race. Good times.
that's crazy!
Holy crap.
Wow!!
Are there any rules who can go first on the cross? Or just the braver one?
Alot of "timing" and also luck is involved. Most of these drivers at this level have raced Figure 8 for a long time and have a lot of experience.
i was waiting for some crashes, but nothing happend, but it's exciting to watch alright.
мир без женщин-водителей :D
now this is racing they had balls to go right through everyone
It appears that none of these drivers are Pastor Maldonado
The figure 8 ??? What a concept ?
where's the thunderdome?
Wooow !!!
the divers seem surprisingly good at paying attention to other cars.
This racing give a useful skill for crossing the intersection
let me guess... only in America. right?
Wow, its like rush hour in Dallas.
When I was a kid the races were run in the opposite direction so that if someone got T-boned the impact was on the passenger side - these guys here have the approaching cars coming at the driver's side!
+HardwayRanch not sure if you are being sarcastic, but they could have an impact on both sides in either direction, depending from where they enter the intersection
+lrkracer not sarcastic, I'm just that stupid. when I went to a figure eight race a long time ago I could only see part of the track. now that I think about your reply and rewatch the video I see the potential for an pact from either side is equal. thanks for clearing that up.
This is fucking insane
Thats the stupidest, most exciting thing I've seen in a long while. Good job, America!
Alabama?
wow. i'm really impressed they weren't wrecking all over the place. crazy....
This shit is awesome
Definitely a MUST SEE event if you ever have the chance.
Adam Radiske They come down to showtime speedway in February ive seen them multiple times
This race was the first figure-8 I had ever seen. Now I come back up from Atlanta every year for it. I think I counted maybe two collisions in the intersection during the whole three hours. Amazing. Amazing, and nerve-wracking!
How do you keep track of this!
+edu gonzalez Each car has an electronic transponder and the track uses a scoring program to keep track of progress. The cars must complete a full lap to count so the drivers "cheating" by not going through the X do not get their lap counted. Fans can use a phone app that would show live standings of the entire field of cars.
A regular day in Hanoi. But lack of honking, though.
this is absolute fucking insanity
Wonderfull. They can drive also to the right? Amazing.
Theyre making another left turn!
+Christian Nielson too bad in a figure 8 they have to make a right turn :)
круть!!!
Just a normal intersection in Jakarta, Nairobi, Cairo...
Who sponsors that? Gillette??
0:37 OMFG that was intense. I never new this type of race even exists. Why is it called 'World' ? Do other countires participate ?
Yes.my uncle is a 2 time world
How do they now who won?
pcupan, electronic scoring with a transponder system.
/r/OddlySatisfying, reporting for duty!
That's... actually pretty fuckin cool.
how it is possible they dont crash in first minute?!
1.Как они это делают?
2. Как понять кто победитель?
Crash?
where number 1 position ?
All cars are electronically scored and have to go around all 4 of the yellow corner pieces for the lap to count. The few times I've been to the race, after 3 hours there is still at least a couple cars on the same lap (about 500 laps).
fucking insane.
No T-bones?
Surprisingly few. The best part of this to me is how the leaders never really slow down, just pick a hole and go for it.
1:47 I see you bro!
that dude almost crashed !
This right here!!! 200mph self driving cars 24hrs! Get it done google.
Fucking Good!!!
The only motorsport where you have to give way at junctions...
So many of them almost crashed lol
I started to sweat just watching this
Why?!
proof you don't need stop signs
scarier than a horror movie
01:26
i wanna see some crashes goddamnit !
I bet these guys are good at running red lights
That guy! 0:45
Okay, I've just looked at a real life replica of any Russian intersection.
You can tell who this was created for. Nascar fans that just wanna see wrecksss
2:48 that guy, lol.
Что за жесть? И кто это придумал?
+Igor Severniy ну тупые)))))
So this is where all the LA drivers learn to drive
я думал, тупее наскара ничего не придумать, но я ошибся
