That is one ride Leno will remember for the rest of his life.

I always loved those cars ( I figured there was more than one), saw one race at Goodwood of all places. So racing it at an oval track isn't as silly as it initially sounds.

Omg!!

Holy crap! I remember that car back in the 70s. Shame they wrecked it, and glad they're OK.

I always wanted to see a wheelstander in person, that car was not made for turning it seems. That and the guy went in too hot. What the hell were thinking driving it on a circle track anyway?

 

[massacre]

When they raced it at goodwood, they would wheelie it on the straights but through the turns they kept it on all 4 wheels.

Lot to be said for good safety equipt!!..............I noticed Bob tried to keep his hands on the wheel during the rolls, And Jay tried to keep his close to his chest, no hands or arms out the windows!..........Only the 2nd crash in 50 years?......Pretty good record.........Tom.

That's 1 of 2 replica cars, not one of the 2 originals.. and the editing in the video makes it look like it flipped 50 freaking time lol.. In reality it did a quick full single flip- the cars still torn up, and I'm sure it wasn't fun, but it was far less dramatic then the video made it appear.

If they rebuild it I bet they put window nets in it this time. And find a new driver. Totally dumb move for a car with that weight distribution.

Way back in the day's when Lion's Drag Strip was running I saw the Hemi under glass run against the Paint wagon.

I never saw Hemi Under Glass, but I did see the Little Red Wagon run at Portland International Raceway in the late '60s.
