He's not wrong though, in 2023 all the walls should have them. Just glad he's OK.

We still have prayer before every race and I hope it stays that way 🙏🏻

Check out what happened the week of the 1973 Indy 500. Probably the worst week in the history of car racing. I was 33 then! Earnhardt wreck caused a lot of changes in safety to be made. I enjoy your videos. Always been a fan of the Wallace boys!

Think NASCAR should make sure there is at least the old style tire stacks in front of these exposed areas before the green flag is shown ongoing

Race track bean counters is reason the wall isn't safer barrier I bet.

I remember Micheal Waltrips' crash. Who would have believed he would have hit an emergency vehicle entrance? I was sure he didn't survive that crash.

They were sure able to put sponsor logos on that wall.

Nascar was a lot different, and the drivers drove a lot different back in the day when the possibility of death was much higher.

If there's a wall there it should have a safer wall
Nascar has special people to tell them were they need them at but to CYA there need them ever were ...

[Upracefan]

The car is what made the hit what it was, it appeared to be a very low speed hit, but because the car is a tank, there was a lot of energy transferred.

[brianpowell]

We seen it over and over cars will go to the most unexpected spots

[cathybarnes]

Can't blame him because there is no excuse for not having safer walls.

[edwardhodgkinson]

Does nascar pay for the safer barrier or does the track owners foot that bill?he is right, that should have been a soft wall before nascar ever return to this track no matter who is responsible for fixing it.

[travisharrington]

If there's no inherent risk at all in racing theres real no point in watching except maybe gambling. Just race slot cars if you're scared. Starting to be like soccer and basketball...

[charleslong]

The way they was changing every where a car can go and they should have put tires and foam blocks that would have helped plus they should now is when your any nascar track they should look at all the walls wasn't bush at Daytona backed into the wall when he got hurt I don't think some places like Daytona they have all soft walls

[markadams]

Herman you drove in a n era where drivers were getting killed these young kids have no idea how good they have really all most all the time they can walk away.

[FlagTheRef]

If he said something before, nothing was done and he hit the wall that's one thing. But if he said nothing before about it and then hit the wall, it's just a frustrated driver using safety as an excuse to be more safe.

[robschannel]

Herman, dose your car still have that dent in the door?

[tamilee]

Can't blame him for being pissed! That would've been a hard hit on the softer wall too! So glad he's ok to say he'll pay for the f'ing wall tho!!😁

You’re dead wrong on this. There is no way there should be a wall without safer barriers anywhere on the track or infield with how hard these cars are on the drivers with even a small impact.. Like you said if there’s a spot without it something is determined to hit it. Also I don’t think you should be making fun of people for wanting the drivers to be safe. I’m honestly shocked with your attitude on this as a former driver.. Still love your channel BTW but I totally disagree with you on this one
