My grandpa was Harland Cox. He absolutely loved this car and all the crew. He sadly passed last year Sept 25 at 92 years old. He was a wonderful man and I’m blessed to call him my Papaw. He made us all proud for sure!
I knew Bobby Issac, he gave me his googles when I was 11 for my go kart racing. Still have them today. He was racing the number 6 at the time for Frank Hefner. Frank build my modified racing engine out Cherryville NC. We followed Bobby to tracks in NC and SC. He was my hero my whole life. Im 70 years old and that was the best time of my life.
very cool Don!
*God Bless, and God Speed to you*
Thanks for sharing those great experiences and memories. God bless.
Lucky you, man!
@Don Howell
Thank you for sharing such an awesome story. Take care brother.🏁
What a great memory and artifact to have. Bobby Isaac was a legend. Thanks for sharing!!
Whoever made this documentary hats off!! Absolutely beautiful and riveting
That was such a beautiful machine.
Yes it was
Still is
Imagine if they released a throwback model😍
Steel Vengeance I would buy it
Steel Vengeance car companies should definitely do throwback series. You just have to keep the body old school and keep the inside new age.
anyone else just get this 3 year old video in their reccomended randomly?
Thankfully yes
Yes
Yes, me too. Fortunately I had a 69 Charger General lee (pretty much replica except the 727 auto trans). The bull bars, the Roll cage inside with all the confederate decals on it.
Seeing this video made me proud as a dodge classic owner. 👍🏼
WTF I just got this too?
@@chucktyson9688 Praise the Jebus, hahaha
Richard Petty said in these cars if the rear end got out from under you that wing would get it back. Pure awesome
Yeah but Richard petty drive the Superbird made by Plymouth this is a Dodge Daytona
@@tilfmilfy7459 they are built pretty much the same and look almost the same, so what is said for one can be said for the other
petty was full of it......lolol go watch the videos, you can see them spinning out worse than the fords
Ironic that NASCAR didn't like the Superbird and Daytona because they weren't like street cars, even tho they actually were. Today if you took the MFG decals off the cars I don't think you could tell one from the other. Same goes for NHRA. When was the last time a Funny Car or Pro Stocker actually looked like the car they are supposed to be?
Well said.
I wouldn't spend a dime to watch a NHRA event. Even NASCAR is starting to be boring. Races are broke down to three secments. If a person was watching a NASCAR race for the first time, they could not tell one make from another. I never thought i would lose interest in watching NASCAR races but, it's happing.
NHRA Pro Stock is an easy class to identify the cars in. If you know what a Camaro looks like you got P/S covered 100%. It may be the only time in history that a racing class that was intended for any and all U.S. auto brands to compete in has morphed into a spec series unintentionally.
Amen.
I can tell the difference between all the mfgs
Those cars were awesome machines and so were the teams and drivers. It would be great if NASCAR had a vintage class that ran those beautiful aero worriers again. I'd pay to see them!
Brian Orfant amen
hell no. hell would freez over before nascar let anyone go over 200 mph again let alone cars that look different.
I would much rather watch replicas of these cars than what we have today.
I would MUCH rather watch these cars run an entire race (or even just 1/3 of a race) than today's cars!!
If they really wanted to,Dodge could build an exact replica and put it on the market. What you reckon?
If nascar and nhra had a brain, they'd get back to their roots. It's what everyone wants. Right?
O how right you are.
yes....yes....yes
agree with you man, need to go back to stock cars
Yes, go back to actual cars not these boring blobs that are all shaped the same way just with different stickers
fax
Amazing video!!! Bobby Isaac the name no one knows but should realize he was a legend.
Mopar or No Car!!!
I can’t imagine going 210+ mph in an older car without any of the safety pieces in the new nascars. Those boys had the BIGGEST balls.
Lotta ball room in them suits
I 100% agree, though the safety net already through.
Chris Parker but if you used the safety equipment you could race for longer! Rip to Dale Sr.
These were built from good steel and solid frames now they are tin and plastic!!..
lol, the roll cages and safety equipment back then was all pretty good.
this just popped into my feed .. thank you you-tube
and what soul-less idiots thumbed this down .. a car ( and memories ) that could bring 60ish year old men to tears
No thumbs down here!!
Mine too Thanks RUclips and NASCAR fox ✌️
He must have been a Ford guy.
Still drying tears here in Finland...
I agree
I was in 11th grade in 1971, when these cars were available on the streets. We had one in the neighborhood,,, also stood out like a sore thumb.. It was beautiful. That brought me into Nascar, now Nascar has seen its last days.
An absolute gem of a story. These men did things that would never be accomplished today. They did things in spite of the danger, because of the danger, and it was just fun for them. Kudos to the writers, directors, production crew and most of all to the men who did these things! Also, Steve Lehto, you missed your calling. You should do more of this. Your delivery and style is singular in a world of bland imitations.
Those Winged Warriors are the most awesome cars ever!!! Love that bright red.
"Back then, you had to have a lot of ball room" No wonder why people back then truly got big balls to do crazy stuffs.
Yum.
Tony Liu ii
Tony Liu.....Makes me wonder why YOU KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT THESE GUYS BALLS.....I think we all know why....
That was a good chuckle
And. Would. Fist. Fight. At the. Drop of the. Hat. Lol
All those years ago these young men put together and built a legend . It must have felt like a space launch , the roar of the engine as it set out gaining speed on its launch with its brave pilot .
My very first model car I ever put together...way back in 1971...
Im telling my age...lol
That car has a soul. That much blood, sweat, determination, and passion? It lives, because we remember.
NASCAR should make a nostalgia class where professional races are held with old school cars......And id like to drive 1...
yes I agree 100%
Like LeMans Classic
@@adamwebster9784 yes sir. Except A B and G bodies
Check out SVRA they run old Trans-Am cars
@@pgf202 SVRA are fun to watch .. But I'm saying old NASCAR stock cars from the 80s.
Those cars are a lot better to watch than this trash they're running today. All cars back then had class and style.
Craig Pennington heck yeah. You could tell what they were, unlike today's plastic versions and would much rather watch a Dodge Charger Daytona or any one of the other examples of that awesome old Detroit iron 👍🏼
go to the Salt Flats, you will have your faith restored
Stupid boomers
@@randomreviewsrebooted5156 You wouldn't know class if it slapped you in the face.
Craig Pennington such a boomer thing to say...
I agree with you though
One of the best videos ever and hats off to Tim Welborn for making this happen!!
50 years on, the Daytona's remain the coolest cars ever made. I always wanted one. Just never could afford one.
Looks beautiful and sounds beautiful
these guys are the real heroes! 1971 to put these records was a great performance. Thank you !!!
1971, the year I was born!!!! Greatest year for Mopars hands down!!!
I was born in 1971 too. Now I had a 69 Charger that 2 years older than me.
nope,that would be 1970...sorry
My brothers favorite driver Bobby Isaac. Man, that guy was just cool. No doubt about it. We wanted to be Bobby Isaac. Thank you Bobby and Harry for all the wonderful memories. Rest in Peace ✌ Bobby and Harry #71🏁 Precious Memories of Childhood Heroes. Mike and Lynn Pardue
I see and hear stories like this and it shows me that cars are alive. They give you a feeling that is indescribable. The love of cars is a passion that you simply cannot explain, pathom, or understand. You just have to experience it and fall in love in your own way to understand the bond between man and machine. I can't wait for more videos like this. Thank you.
great to see these cars racing as I still drive both a 1970 Plymouth Satellite and 1969 Dodge Charger.
A lot of respect for the men of that era that help start and grow the racing sport we still enjoy today.
1971 I wasn’t even born..amazing story..man and machine👊🏻
Ned said it best, car was in a class all by itself..
That’s a real super car !!!! Beautiful. Great story
The older I get the more respect and gratitude I have for the pioneer's of the sport and the contributions they have all made thru history. Many of the records only recently broken by "super cars" "hyper cars" and limitless budgets & what it took to beat real genius & real talent. Thank you.
Thanks to all involved who put together this amazing production....a view of when racers were just plan folk...going fast and enjoying what they did.
I REMEMBER, THE STOCK CAR DAYS, FROM 1968 AT M.I.S. MY POP TOOK ME AND MY BROTHER, AND BETWEEN THIRD AND FORTH ON THE BACK STRETCH WAS SO NICE, TO SEE THE SUPER BIRDS COME FLYING BY, I WAS 7 YEARS OLD, MY BROTHER 9, WE LOVED IT ALL, TODAY , IS NOT RACING, CARS TO TIGHT, PUSHING, NOT RACING.BACK THEN WE COULD WALK THE STARTING POLE, TALK TO SOME DRIVERS LIKE RICHARD PETTY, BOBBY ALLUSION, ECT...YOU GUYS MAD US FEEL LIKE KINGS, THANK YOU ALL.
What an incredible piece this is! This is what I think of when I think about America (I'm from NZ) the incredible people like this who pushed boundaries and made America great. I look at what is going on today and wish I could have lived in that era.
Great film! I loved Bobby’s laconic “Well, I’m just goin’ to hop in this 426 cubic inch, 425 horsepower Superbird and set a few speed records.” Hats off to his whole team and the current owner of this automotive icon!
It’s like the SR-71 of muscle cars.
Piloting that masterpiece….. almost unimaginable.
Such an awesome store. The old guys gave me goosebumps. Can you imagine seeing the car again? So amazing.
I get goosebumps seeing those HEMI powered winged MOPARS something that put dodge in the spotlight . i love my Mopars till i die . The HEMI motor is still being used today, is all dodge design from 70 years ago and now its the ultimate V 8 motor ever produced . From 1970 convertible hemi cudas valued at over 3.5 million to the 10k -HP fire breathing Top Fuel dragsters , The HEMI is here to stay and just keeps getting better with time.
Absolutely awesome! Incredible car! Incredible team and it brought back boyhood memories of seeing this car race! Ty so much Mr.Hyde, Bobby Issac and crew!
What a treasure to have 45 years experience with this car.
Richard Petty drove one too I love that guy.
Petty drove a Superbird not a Daytona.
Absolutely amazing, both car and the world of stories it has behind it. What a way to live a dream. I'm pretty sure we're all thinking,"I wish I could have been there for that." Great story.
Great film and history of a famous car, driver bobby Isaac, and Harry Hyde.
Harry was a real gem of a guy...love to hear him talk....sounds just like Dale Sr!!
Gary Karl
Thanks to Nord, Teddy, and Twilla...all VIP's...28 world records for stock car....some still stand...September 1971.
Oh my God . I cried . I understand absolutely and I appreciate these real MEN . Thank you
..thank you...for making a whole heap of grown men, weep like babies..
Fantastic program... Thank You for presenting this!!!
There ain't no racing like dirt track racing. It's the place legends come from! RIP Bobby.
Awesome. I remember when I was a kid watching the races and seeing how cool this car looked and how it crushed the field on performance. Great to hear from the crew and their perspective. I wonder if a movie could be produced capturing this great race experience similar to Ford vs Ferrari.
Amazing film. I’m a oval racer and this brought tears to my eyes. What a legend 🏁
what a great legacy, what a great show
classic NASCAR series, now that would be something-and im in Australia,, you guys have some special history there don't bury it , show it.
so glad they put this on youtube
Im not into NASCAR at all . But after seeing this video and looking more into this story what these men did was bloody amazing
THAT CAR CHANGED YOU LIFE AS WELL AS MINE THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID FOR THE MILLIONS THAT FOCUS UPON YOUR GREAT WOK, GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL THAT MADE IT HAPPEN, FOR ME, I WAS JUST A KID BUT HAD A LOT OF FUN WHEN I LOOK BACK
One of the best RUclips clips ever!
This video just popped now, I always got emotional with this Dodge, but now... The best f....ing video ever, to know the real history around it....Thank You
This is a pure Legend-Muscle-Car from a great Time !
It's time to make a movie on this historical vehicle. Starring Ven Diesel. . I am a die hard Mopar fan. I just love this car.
Do you know the real reason that NASCAR outlawed the Dodge Daytona? Ford and Chevrolet didn't want to spend the money to compete with Chrysler, and they both threatened to pull out of NASCAR racing unless that car was removed. I still remember seeing a street legal version of that car on the track as the pace-car for the Daytona 500 one year, and thinking wouldn't it be funny if, instead of pulling off, the driver just pulled away from the pack and lapped them all. In pre-race testing, the pace-car did an average lap time that was almost 3 seconds faster than the number one qualifier.
The Daytona was factory built for racing. Not for a family to enjoy as a car. That is why Nascar outlawed them. Ford and Chevrolet were built for the street and for family transpotration. Nascar did the only thing they could do..... outlaw them.
Ford had their 427 axed by Nascar in the 60s because it was smoking everything else, outlawing the Daytona was just typical nascar.
Chevrolet didn't have factory teams at this time. Chevrolet(GM) already had 53% of the car market.
LOL. Didn''t want to spend the money? Ford not only fielded the Ford Torino Talledga and Mercury Cyclone Spoiler as direct competitors to the Daytona and Superbird in 1969 and '70, taking the title in '69 with Richard Petty at the wheel, they had already prototyped the 1971 Torino King Cobra (both Ford and Mercury versions) when NASCAR changed the rules.
The real reason the aero cars were restricted out of existence was that NASCAR was scared of 200+ mph.
It was regulated out of competition, not banned. NASCAR added a restrictor plate to the hemis. And the forced the aero cars to run a 305ci engine, far smaller then the non-aero cars. There were several reasons why. Yes Ford and GM made a stink. But also there were concerns with the tires at the speeds the cars were achieving. The tire technology wasn’t up to snuff. Another issue was on short tracks, the winged cars sucked. On road courses and dirt tracks they were barely adequate. So teams had to have 2 different models of cars to run all the races. That made it expensive.
Ray Fox Jr....a good friend as a kid....RIP.
legends !
Big love ❤️ from down under in 🇳🇿 n.z
Such a great video , especially for someone like me born in the 90’s and doesn’t know that much about the founding of nascar other then Richard petty or Dale sr
Well thank you NASCAR and fox for sharing this with us one of our favorites
Love the wing car's !!! Built to run 200mph + did it with ease !!!!!!
I remember watching the race where they cracked 200mph in the late 70s they had found a bunch of horsepower in the off season , ,Nascar was crapping their britches , it was great to watch , but the cars were barely able to handle that kind of speed.
Totally love this. OMG these images, epic!!! Never made it to Bonneville. Love seeing anything from there.
The best time for NASCAR. I can't even watch it "NASCAR" anymore.
Gayland McLean lol sorry boomer
@@christophersmith8486 shut up
grzybek 337 no
Now they have banned the confederate flag and kissing the butts of the communist blm
Ken, wow! I watched it twice! GREAT, wonderful documentary brother! I'm gonna tell my car buddies about this fantastic piece of HISTORY! John 😀
Isaac went 217 miles an hour 45 years later and NASCAR is going 220 miles an hour
That's a pretty cool story, that I have never in my life heard of before. I guess I now have my explanation for why NASCAR got rid of the wing.
Never seen a Camry go this fast, especially when it’s stock engine
The dominance of this car makes absolute sense, because NASCAR has heavy cars and with limited aero, so to compensate that, it has big and very very powerful engines. So when you mix that with an aero car, you get something as insane as this
Thank you for this amazing piece of history!
i miss nascar when it was ford vs chevy vs olds vs dodge vs plymouth vs amc vs pontiac vs buick etc.i also miss seeing the engine size on the car ,im a child of the 60s and 70s
Greatness last a lifetime. Love what you did and Harry what a character. I have an old speedway car, Bonneville sounds good to me...
Did anyone else recognize Steve Lehto ? He should be in the credits.
Yeah rewatched the first clip of him 3 times before I caught the name on the bottom, not a place I was expecting him, didn't know he did stuff other then law
@@jaykoerner he's authored several automotive books, from the history of the winged cars, to Bobby Isaac himself, to the Chrysler turbine cars (which was co-authored by Jay Leno)
Yeah Steve did a great job, I gotta get his book on these cars.
I only became aware of this video from following Steve,s youtube channels
I love this car brother. Thanks for this document salut from Algeria
15:17.
Best Mopar screenshot ever!!!
Awesome documentary!
Thanks so much.
216 mph- still breathtaking- this is 1970’s technology- We have some “sport” car companies now only reaching that with modern technology.
There were alot of muscle cars back in the day that could do , 140 150,160 , you ought to be in a pickup doing 130 mph .
Thanks for sharing! Made me tear up.
Well I'm halfway through this video I just got one question that big circle at Bonneville did he at least go left LOL
Nice job Steve. 👍
I hope that legend never dies fellas.
This needs to be a movie.
Man, this was just a gold nugget that was awesome!!! Theres no way to make that beautiful machine look any more badass than it already does!! Whooooooo!!!
Very cool story. I was 6 when this happened with Bobby Iassic. Amazing that it was ran again.
What a car, what a story, it was a pleasure, thank you to whoever👍.
Awesome video, awesome car, and awesome stories, thanks
loved it, crying here.
That's freaking AWSOME!!!
Thank u boys fir everything
As a young boy I grew up watching all the greats, of course the The King, the wall trips buddy Baker you know the real racers. How could we have come so far to see such great machinery on the track and there are rumors in the mill that in a few years will be watching the electric vacuum cleaners race. The greats that have passed are rolling over in their graves
Tremendous film. I learnt so much and it was awesome to get to hear from the crew. Gotta have BALLS!
God I love that car. How freaking is cool is that
Even today that is still shifting👏👏👏
Fantastic!!
NASCAR needs to get rid of restrictor plates and stuff and make stock cars stock
