2023 Daytona August Cup Race Reactions

As Mike once said “NASCAR is going to be so overwhelmed with things to fix…they won’t even get to address the fact that it’s gonna fly away if it gets turned quickly at 195.”

[@timechanger9162]

Even at 180 it can. Most blowovers are from getting hit while spinning. This is one of the first besides larsons where he didn’t get hit. He hit a bump and it lifted him.

[@mauricebarry8858]

[@lucassipka2591]

“I want a massive one” Ryan Preece: “observe”

[@LumberjackMC]

He Flipped 11 times. If you count the first half flip, the flip counter would start when he's on his roof and he rolled 10 times on his roof, then he landed on his wheels counting as a half flip, considering the first initial half flip it would be 11.

[@LeonheartDelta]

Huh, I counted 17.

[@frederalbacon]

11 is correct, but that first one isn't a half. Sure he didn't barrel roll off when his car caught air going backwards, but that first flip was still him going from upright to upside down to upright again, just in the same direction, to me, that first one is still a flip, so 11 total.

[@wolffyhowl5622]

Knowing about the Preece wreck, especially knowing he's okay for the most part right now allowed the lead up and reactions to be SUPER entertaining

[@raven_1133]

Oddly enough, Blaney’s crash has given insight onto how Dale Sr’s body acted during his crash.

[@anareel4562]

Sort of, the crash itself is extremely similar, almost identical on camera. However due to the safety improvements over the last 22 years we only see a portion of how Dale's body would have reacted, at least the initial portion. Still good insight and hopefully NASCAR can learn and improve safety while not slowing the car/making the racing worse. Not to sound cold hearted but racing is inherently dangerous, yes we should take what steps we can but at the end of the day there's always a chance.

[@SoI_Badguy]

Sort of. Did you see how FAR the safer barrier wall flexed? It rang like a guitar string.

[@raven_1133]

@@anareel4562 Of course, but I mean in terms of how the body moved. It’s a bunch of science shit I’m too lazy to type out, but I’m 99% sure we could accurately see how Sr’s body moving by matching autopsy reports with how Blaneys body moved.

9:42 Hope and Dreams of Blaney fans Part 10

[@raven_1133]

Preece’s car initially landed in between the window net and the roof hatch, it cause the frame to buckle probably. The window net is understandable because the fabric of the net is lighter than metal, yeah yeah yeah, lot of science bullshit, but the window net was moving at a different speed than the car itself, enabling it to break off. The roof hatch most likely took a good portion of the force of the initial landing, causing it to break open as well. If you look closely enough, you can see that the roof is buckled in a little bit. He caught air initially because (and I know from experience on both Iracing and Forza), the height difference between the grass and the pavement is like a foot. Preece has just become a test dummy this season.

[@deniszlatevski9269]

14:34 I didn't expect the car gonna get fling into air

[@rileyplocharsky3496]

14:09 hold my beer -Ryan Preece

[@markseb17rocks]

that is not what i wanted for the record

[@JayT10200]

That was more Rusty Wallace's crash, Davey Allison's Pocono crash flipped similar but didnt get as high

[@LeCarnage]

Obviously with the window net and roof hatch there's things to be looked at but I'm massively impressed with how not compromised the cockpit was compared to the Gen 6 suffering roof impacts. Definitely one of the things NASCAR did really well with on the Gen 7.

[@thicccheese4007]

We can all agree thank fuck for soft walls the HANS device and improved safety features and healthier drivers. If that kind of hit happened even in like 2007, it would’ve been horrendous.

[@iLikePlanez]

Okay, not gonna lie. It’s kinda crazy that you can tell that Ryan Preece’s car was still a car. If you should it to a 3 year old they would say it’s a car. Nascar out did the safety of the next gen car

I counted 11 inversions. The blowover half-flip, followed by the half-flip in the opposite rotation, counts as one inversion.

I agree, it didn't roll in one direction, but it did go from roof up, to roof down, back to roof up.
