Top Fuel Bike Crash

11 жыл бұрынSteve Carey crashes his Top Fuel Bike at Santa Pod Raceway at Dragstalgia 2013, Saturday 13th July. As he comes out of tyre shake around 60ft the bike seems to dip to the right and the frame appears to dig in which flips the bike violently left and again the frame digs in. This starts a pendulum which seems to be unrecoverable. From something that started at 60ft the bike incredibly makes it past 1000ft! Both the rider Steve Carey and Keith Bartlett from Santa Pod Raceway have given permission for this video to be aired. Filmed at 300 frames per second (fps), played back at 30 fps so ten times slower than real time.

He badly injured his shoulder but he was otherwise ok. In fact I was at his wedding yesterday and he was all good!

This is unfortunate but he waited too late to get out of it. He should've been able to feel the rear tire shake an get out of it. Or at the very latest when he felt the bike leaning to the right. I hope he made a full recovery 🙏🏼

You’ve got to remember that the bike moves at 3s and he starts to bail off it at 33s, so he had 30s to think about it yeah? No just 3s in real time!! 😬

True, that's incredible. He hit the tarmac at at least 180 mph, and to walk away is incredible. Trust me, his whole body will be black and blue for a couple of weeks. I'm so glad he is OK. Elmer Trett made a record run 6.06 ? (Topbike nitro ) and came off after going through the lights, and his head hit the concrete wall. Rip to one of the greatest dragracers ever.Elmer Trett, a true gladiator...

Absolutely, it perplexes me that some people think this is funny ? Thank God he is okay; he will be very sore for a while. Most likely broke bones ?

As an ex motorcycle racer all I can say is you boys need to learn how to slide instead of tumble when you crash........
@samueladams1775 3 жыл бұрын
You don't always have a choice between a slide and a tumble. Top fuel racers aren't amateurs. At 180 to 200 mph you become a human bullet.

Minibikes don't count nor do trail bikes, mate. Unless you've raced the TT or Topbike, do not lecture on things you do not understand...

These are big, wide beasts reaching 250mph in just 5 seconds. The g-forces, the reaction times... completely different game compared to slow, little circuit racing bikes, no one is going to gracefully crash one of these things.

He is correct. You know when it's too late. It's time to pitch the bike. Steve waited too long to get out of it. As a progas, Harley racer #3 plate holder(B&MCycles). Those 4 cylinder topfuelers are wide. You almost have to roll off it. Thus setting you in that motion.. we only had 11" wide rear tire. You could hop off the bike and set yourself in a sliding motion. I never had to get off one.

Hilarious, NOT! Especially as if the bike had landed on him he wouldn't be with us now. Thankfully he is still with us and in one piece.
