Looked like he went over the curb and hit it really hard, as he came back over the off-track side of the curb. (The track side of the curb is rounded. The off-track side of the curbs is a small cliff) he hit the "cliff" hard. That Jared the car and BOOM air bags IMO
Yeah, I could see that happening. It’s just hard to tell but you can’t really see any impact. Maybe the suspension is so stiff, triggered and transferred that energy.
@phelpsgarage4202 Sounds about right. Stiff suspension meets the off track side of the curbs = one heck of a jolt. That is really unfortunate either way
Here because my Camaro ss air bags just recently deployed in the same manner I hit an apex at streets of willow / wondering if I was the only one but it seems it’s something about stiffness on chassis I too have lots of suspension upgrades and car is rather stiff/ my best advice to anybody tracking the fifth gen ss is remove air bag Fuses before tracking and place back after the day /
MEU camaro 2011 2ss v8, acionou airbags laterais e tensionadores, GM não cobriu garantia, mesmo eu comprovando com um vídeo, de que o veículo estava à 50km e uma avenida reta, nenhuma manobra brusca! VI VÁRIOS vídeos de problemas semelhantes!
Never seen that happen before. Shit, I got T-boned once in a little 96 civic hatch and the airbags didn't deploy. He hit a pebble on the road the side ones went off. Glad to see he and the camaro are okay.
You need to find out what resister is required to bypass them. so the vehicle think the bags are still there. You only should do this in a dedicated track car though. Glad to see only feeling got hurt and the wallet some too.
You are too forgiving for the manufacturer. That’s straight up ridiculous. Both sides deployed. What in the heck - stiffer or not. The tech in that car is straight up pathetic. Get the Monaro or Pontiac G8 and have a similar handling car that doesn’t try to distract you mid race.

I guess it’s a common thing with Camaro 🤷🏻♂️
Big fella was just sending it hard lol! Sucks the air bags went off like that but at least it’s official, it’s a race car now lol.
I like the way you think!
The boys got balls
Very unfortunate situation...
Good thing he's alright 🚗💥💨🔥
Yeah, it’s crazy how that happened
Loving the lighting man! Hopefully your buddy can get up and running again soon. Best of luck to you both, stay safe!
Thank you! He’s good, Homestead in a few weeks!
Cool lighting

Camaro airbag deployments on track do happen, you'll find at least a few public videos/articles. What a pain for a very capable car at a great price.
Yeah, it’s kind of crazy how the airbags deployed. Sounds funny to say, but I guess it’s normal for the Camaro lol
@@phelpsgarage4202 it sorta is expected. I haven’t seen it in later generations. Maybe it’s been addressed.
@@nodrogkam yeah, you’re right knowing what we know now it seems to be typical for these..
The color of your folding chair speaks volumes.
You like it? It matches Tom’s toenails 🌈 💅🏻
Does Tom have a YT channel?
No, but he should 😂

Yeah it’s weird how they just went off.
Can you disable the airbags by pulling the fuse?
That’s a good question, but I’m not sure
You need to find out what resister is required to bypass them. so the vehicle think the bags are still there. You only should do this in a dedicated track car though. Glad to see only feeling got hurt and the wallet some too.
If you have proper safety gear it wouldn't be a bad idea to disable the airbags on the track.
Yeah, I agree soon this car will have a full cage.

I agree I think it’s weird it did that, but people say it’s normal 🤷🏻♂️
That’s a knarly noise it makes lol
Yeah, reminds me of a missile shooting
