I was there at the Kasey Kahne wreck. That’s honestly the best race I’ve ever been to. The wreck was bad but that was a great race. First half was a wreck fest and the second half was fuel mileage and Jeff Gordon who ran 15th the whole race went from 15th to 3rd in 3 laps cause all the guys who ran out of fuel. Awesome race.

I hate Pocono personally. 2nd least favorite track. I miss the old racey Pocono. It's been dreadful since the repave imo. Same with Texas. And Dega was too for a few years after it's repave. Man, imagine how boring Darlington will be once they have to repave it. That'll be a sad day. I like Pocono's uniqueness. As you said, it's one of the non-cookie-cutter 1.5 mile tracks we get. But the actual racing there has been....bleh. Save for a few moments. Just my opinion though.

@daneamann6225
@daneamann6225 6 жыл бұрын
Pocono is by far the most dangerous track in NASCAR. The high speeds, the angled walls, (both inside and outside) and the high rate of braking all make Pocono a death trap. And the problem is that the track is so slow to update. The safety evolution from 1970-2012 was virtually nonexistent. Nearly every crash in this video occurred in such a way that at any other track, it would have never been an issue. After the 2001 Steve Park crash, the track put dirt behind the guard rail, but inexplicably left a opening that Jeff Green hit not even a year later. The Sadler crash should have never occurred, the fact the wall ever jutted out like that is asinine. Only after the 2010 Kahne crash did the track add the backstretch catch fence, and it wasn’t until the 2012 ARCA race where Buster Graham sailed over the horribly angled turn 1 guardrail that a wall was placed spanning from the exit of pit road to just before the corner. Thank God that he did hit that elevated paved stretch, but that brings up the point of why the hell is there basically the equivalent of a ramp in the grass!? The whole track is in my opinion a black mark on the schedule. The racing is either mediocre or dangerous, and the scary turn 1 crashes the last two years due to brakes failing are proof enough to me that there needs to be a change to this venue.

Pocono is truly an underrated track for truly bad crashes. See: Richard Petty in 1980, Dale Sr. in 1982, Bobby Allison in 1988, Greg Sacks in 1989 (I think), 1991 with the big one off turn 3, 1992 with Davey Allison flipping wildly, Ken Schrader and Dale Jarrett catching on fire in 2003. That also doesn't include most right-front tire cuts that results in ungodly smacks in the wall.

Question: why doesnt Pocono place a/make some makeshift coned off chicanes( watch indycar Baltimore grand prix chicane to see what im talking about ) on the front straightaway so the entry speeds entering the banked 1st turn are slower, if Monza GP circuit could chicane their overly long front straightaway why cant Pocono?

A triangular track where all three corners are completely different. Add to that a sharp turn at the end of a very long straight. The result is a nightmare trying to set the car up properly and a track that eats up brakes. If the track was a road course there would be a chicane in the front stretch to slow the cars so they wouldn’t reach top speed before having to perform heavy braking.

Not only is Pocono dangerous, but its also the most boring track on the circuit. One racing line, long and high speed stretches which COULD promote drafting if they werent broken up by three rather tight turns where passing only happens if you dive bomb the corner and somehow manage not to wash up the track, and two races a month apart that often see rain delays/rain outs thanks to the races being held during the summer where cold front updrafts made by the surrounding mountains combine with humid Gulf Stream air to create micro-burst thunderstorms that soak everything. Even when NASCAR was at its peak in the 90s it was STILL a dreadfully boring track. Pocono still exists while Ontario and Texas World are gone/in shambles. There is no justice.

Ontario was a configuration much similar to Indy, modeled after it. And how is the NASCAR racing at Indy these days? Oh yea, boring as the track it was compared to, Pocono. Now auto club is there in the LA market, designed similar to Michigan, which the old "Texas world" was also very similar, perhaps as been said a cookie-cutter track. Don't worry, Bruton Smith got NASCAR at a Texas track all hyped up to be the best ever, that all too often has just been horrid, a terrible joke, that no matter how many changes are made is still just as boring and suck... and took the series' original N. Wilkesboro out of the sport altogether

you didn't show the shrader wreck in turn 1 during the 90s. turn 1 is a tough corner to get into. repeatedly braking at that high a speed, and the pedal pressure you have to use is a bit more than these rotors can take. you can only superheat a rotor so many times before it gets brittle and flies apart. I think most of the tracks they run on are too big.

Been watching races there for years and it just occurred to me that they should put a sand/gravel trap on the inside of turn 1 where Bubba went through. That would have slowed him down a lot. That grass didn't take any speed off. The recent safety updates have made the track a lot safer though. You could have added other wrecks like Allison's flip in '92 or Lake Speed and Greg Sacks in '89. Turn 1 has seen some brutal hits. Chuck Bown had his career shortened after a crash in T1 in '94. Could go on and on...

NASCAR tracks are all dangerous, but the worse are, in alphabetical order: Atlanta, Bristol, Charlotte, Darlington, Daytona, Kansas, Pocono, Talladega, and Texas. Getting close to being added: Chicago, Dover, Kentucky, Michigan. My advice? Either slow down the races by having ALL races with restrictor plates.. Or stop making the cars so danged aerodynamic.
