That wasn't Schrader. |

D'oh. You're right. Barry Dodson. I was a bit quick on the draw on that one. Schrader was actually *in* the race and got a good finish that day (6th). |

One of my faves also from 1994, Bobby Dotter at the 1:35 mark. The afore mentioned Hermie Sadler crash And when Buckshot got dumped by Joe Bessey to win his only BGN race a little after Hermie's red flag TJ Bell and the inside wall had a nice meeting too. 96 Spring BGN also had some good wrecks, but I taped over it. Thankfully they showed them in the intro to Milwaukee |

Barry Dodson was terrible as a TV analyst, always liked Dorsey though, also Ken Weaver was always good for some cautions. The wrecks in the 1996 Busch race were great, I remember recreating them with my die cast collection. |

I think we should all just agree to come here on Sunday evening and at the drop of the green flag work our way through all the videos in this thread. It'll be a lot more fun than holding the race to the impossibly high standards we have of it now anyway |

Sounds good to me! This thread is 1000 times better than the actual race will be. Old school Dover wrecks are tast |

Just like 500 miles around Rockingham. Now that I think about how to fix current NASCAR, gear them to hit 10k at the end of the straightaway and move em back to 500 mile races. We'll see whose shit doesn't scatter all over the track after that 5 hour stress test. |

Didn't Bobby Dotter get injured in that wreck? Don't see how that's cool. |

Crazy how Dotter hit so hard with the RF that the LF came off... |

| Post subject: | Re: Cup/Nationwide @ Dover + Trucks @ Vegas |
I've thought about that before as well. I almost wonder if there was some sort of failure on the LF that cause the crash to begin with. |

They mention during the numerous replays it goes down on the LF before he heads for the wall, the spindle broke and the wheel came off with the hub, rotor, and caliper still attached. |

I love how this thread went three pages and it's all about past wrecks at Dover. Which, let's be honest, is an interesting discussion because Dover is one of the worst tracks in terms of runoff (or lack thereof). Makes staying perfect a huge premium, concrete or asphalt. |
