Awesome Wheelie Video: Super Slow Motion Footage, Graceful Launch – Death Wobble Landing

Super slow motion footage is really cool. This video shows exactly why. The killer 1974 Challenger featured in this piece comes off the starting line and hangs the hoops like a good Stock/Super Stock car. Watching the slicks work to grip the track and the trajectory of the car is neat. 

The real show happens on the landing. That little wiggle you see from the stands when a car that skies the front end comes down to Earth looks like a momentary spec of weirdness. Take real time and slow it down by a ton and that same situation looks horrifying. Understand that what you are seeing take place over the course of tenths of seconds, but the way that front tire flops around is totally creepy!

Thanks to BangShift reader BigBlockRanger for the tip! 

Here’s the view from the front:
