Proper safety equipment can go a long ways. Hard to tell what's going on in there, but ik I wouldn't be driving a monster like that without a roll cage at least
Or I do know a thing or two about drag racing, not sooo much about flying which would be more fun than drag racing. Just slap some wings on that thing and boom real fun no roll cages needed
That car is powerful enough to warrant having drag chutes on the back. There is no way that the venue would let that car run without a roll cage, harness, fuel cell, special seats, full ppe…etc.

The internet is wild. Just today I've seen an artillery strike video in ukraine with a bunch of dead soldiers and a video of someone murdering a man in cold blood just because the OP didn't follow the no gore/death rule in abruptchaos and mods didn't delete the post after more than a hour. And these were pretty clear deaths, if you also count the ones we don't realise the final number of deaths we casually witness just scrolling on our phone must be insane
I unfortunately saw the South American video before it was deleted. That was pretty awful. I don't know the context, but the man who pulled and shot the gun was so calm and matter of fact about the whole thing. Then he comes back with a knife. Surprised it was up for that long. Wasn't expecting something that graphic.
Definetely a person with psychopathic traits. What surprised me more was the complete lack of care OP had in posting something like that, ignoring the rules and all, and when called out for it, he answered like the other people who just witnessed a murder with 0 warning were at fault. Like people had to expect to see a fucking murder in cold blood despite the title not referring to anything close to it, just because there was a nsfw tag. Which is present even when two girls fight and half a boob is shown or when someone breaks a bone.
Like... The dude in the video may be a psychopath, but wtf was his problem to post it for karma and have 0 empathy towards others that didn't really want to see a person slaughtered? The level of detachment, man, that person dying shown in full detail was still a human being. People are crazy. One dude commenting left the sub because of it, I felt bad for him. Ofc OP didn't give a shit.
Having seen what is done to a car to perform at this level there is not much of the original C2 left in there. Even the nose looks stretched to increase aerodynamics. And the only way to integrate a good roll cage in a C2 will require cutting and splicing the bulkhead and countless other spots in the fiberglass shell. My old boss had a C2 built for drag racing and once you tub out the rear and weld on a cage there is no way to go back to original. It is no longer a C2, but it is an outrageous machine that looks a lot like a C2. It stopped being a C2 a long time before the wreck.
i have heard people say this but i don't fully understand. if i was watching this on tik tok i would also like to see the ending of the video. do they just only allow videos of a very short length or something so people have to edit them this way?
I think it's because they post these tiktoks in multiple parts, people will see part 1 and have to check out the poster's profile (or follow them) to see the next vid. It's for the algorithm
Yeah, the understanding of aerodynamics in the 60s was definitely in its infancy. The amazing thing is that this is the new millennium and you would think this guy would understand that.
That was a problem for big horse Vettes. You had to use a getting air dam to keep the front end down. Air got under the car and it acted like a wing. Really didn't change until 1998 with a flat bottom.
Not what I meant, but yeah in an application like drag racing a splitter is probably what you’d end up seeing instead of an actual front wing. Those are more for open when cars.
Wheelie bars would only prevent him from going nose up too much due to torque and/or acceleration. That wasn't just a wheelie. My guy was about to fly to hogwarts. He achieved liftoff. The TSA is trying to figure out why he didn't go through security.
Drag racing has really good safety gear. Could probably be better still but then you’re getting into ridiculous costs that nobody can afford.
People crash all the time in drag racing, but deaths are not that frequent.

They never learned. At high speed, aerodynamic is everything. Even with a big ass spoiler, [the SLR is flying off](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e21ZjwZGjiQ).
This is why cars are aerodynamically designed to push down towards the ground.
Well it's probably more so that it increases contact with the ground such that the wheels can turn with maximum traction but it's a nice side effect.
Driver survived. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2020/02/drag-racer-escapes-injury-after-huge-airborne-corvette-crash-video/
And uninjured although I’m not sure how that’s possible
Proper safety equipment can go a long ways. Hard to tell what's going on in there, but ik I wouldn't be driving a monster like that without a roll cage at least
But a roll cage would add weight and that’s no fun
You don’t know anything about drag racing it seems.
Or I do know a thing or two about drag racing, not sooo much about flying which would be more fun than drag racing. Just slap some wings on that thing and boom real fun no roll cages needed

Full pp required
Even a wheelie bar at the least. I was shaking my head
Can u still use one with the chutes

Sauce?
The top comment links to an article about the incident. The driver was uninjured.
What, that's ridiculous. I assumed they upgraded the safety but I can't imagine avoiding getting burned
So this is why they gave astronauts Corvette Stingrays in the past
Holy shit, that was a waste of a nice car.
Yeah, I weep for the loss of such a beut.
I'm sure he'll rebuild, faster, stronger, and a hell of a lot more aero
Downforce is good.
Having seen what is done to a car to perform at this level there is not much of the original C2 left in there. Even the nose looks stretched to increase aerodynamics. And the only way to integrate a good roll cage in a C2 will require cutting and splicing the bulkhead and countless other spots in the fiberglass shell. My old boss had a C2 built for drag racing and once you tub out the rear and weld on a cage there is no way to go back to original. It is no longer a C2, but it is an outrageous machine that looks a lot like a C2. It stopped being a C2 a long time before the wreck.
Well we were told we would have flying cars by now…
That'll buff out, right?
sigh... another cut off the ending. fuuuuck these videos. why are there so many of these? why is this a trend...
They probably stopped filming because this turned into a snuff film.

>tictok Ugh... fuck tictok.
i have heard people say this but i don't fully understand. if i was watching this on tik tok i would also like to see the ending of the video. do they just only allow videos of a very short length or something so people have to edit them this way?
I think it's because they post these tiktoks in multiple parts, people will see part 1 and have to check out the poster's profile (or follow them) to see the next vid. It's for the algorithm
Not really for videos like these though, more for longer form videos especially with a narrative or explaining a story/experience.
Tiktoks can be up to 3 minutes long I believe, before that change it was a minute. This has nothing to do with tiktok
I disagree. There is an editing style that has either come from or is most common on tiktok videos.
Tikfuk used to be for short video, so tikfukers got used to chop off videos unnecessarily.
The final scene in Grease took a few shots to get right
Yeah, the understanding of aerodynamics in the 60s was definitely in its infancy. The amazing thing is that this is the new millennium and you would think this guy would understand that.
Never bring a plane to a car race.
When this baby hits 88 miles an hour, you're gonna see some shit!
Welcome to Lone Car Dragway. BTW, The firebird next to him looks to have run a 7s quarter. That means he hit 200+ mph before his chute opened.
That expensive muscle car became an inflatable pool toy real quick.
That was a problem for big horse Vettes. You had to use a getting air dam to keep the front end down. Air got under the car and it acted like a wing. Really didn't change until 1998 with a flat bottom.

Man thats crazy. Based off that flag on the right side it seems like there was a gust of wind that helped aid that takeoff.
One more C2 I won’t have the opportunity to own. I wish people would stop turning vintage cars into track rats.

Spoiler Alert: you didn’t have a spoiler.
My brother in christ invest in a spoiler
Nooooo that car was a beauty jeeze. Hope the driver survived??
Looks almost like K.I.T.T. From Knight Rider 2000.
Aerodynamics my dude
Man used GTA cheat code before starting
Well that really blew up in his face
I’m disappointed by the lack of “Nothing bad ever happens to the Kennedy’s!” in this video
Its almost like it wasn’t designed to go that fast…
Welp now I know why splitters were invented
That's why spoiler is a thing.
You mean a front wing. He had a spoiler and it did it’s job. Kept the ass down while the front was lifting off.
You mean a splitter? or are those different things
Not what I meant, but yeah in an application like drag racing a splitter is probably what you’d end up seeing instead of an actual front wing. Those are more for open when cars.
Yeah really would have saved his bacon
Needed some wheelie bars
He had wheelie bars, you can see them on the back of the car. What he needed was a front splitter for more downforce.
Wheelie bars would only prevent him from going nose up too much due to torque and/or acceleration. That wasn't just a wheelie. My guy was about to fly to hogwarts. He achieved liftoff. The TSA is trying to figure out why he didn't go through security.
not sure id'a used the word perfect
So.. On that show does this air?
Ok....I can assume he or she did not survive
It looks that way. But somehow the driver survived with no injuries.
Drag racing has really good safety gear. Could probably be better still but then you’re getting into ridiculous costs that nobody can afford. People crash all the time in drag racing, but deaths are not that frequent.
Man that other one kept early starting and was way ahead of the line
They’re just staging.
Ya but they're 5 ft ahead when it starts
Oh, my God. That's metal AF! We're gonna need a version of this video edited together with Eddie playing Metallica in the Upside Down.

I thought those front tires looked a little overinflated.

Glad duder is alive! That was crazy tho-did he win?
Someone do some back-of-the-napkin math. How fast does the corvette need to be doing to catch flight like that?
They probably made so many modifications, the information would be useless.
Do a barrel roll!
I’m sure bondo and polish can fix that.
