The Longest Wheelstand Video on Youtube
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 дек 2021
- I put together a collection of videos I have taken at the Byron Wheelstand Contest from 2012-2021 to make The Longest Wheelstand Video on RUclips. This is nearly an hour long so sit back and enjoy the non stop action of Muscle Cars competing in a Wheelie Contest for $10,000 dollars and the bragging rights to be the winner of this historical event at Bryon Dragway in Byron, Illinois.
One thing to note is that this long video is missing the years 2013 and 2018. I couldn't make it out to the event in 2013 and in 2018 the event was rained out and never happened.
I made this video on New Years Eve 2021 and wanted to say Happy New Years 2022 to everyone and hope this video gives you some enjoyment while you are off enjoy the Holiday Season. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a great New Year!

Always good Tom been watching theses since day one they never get old watching them over and over lol
@@tommycook9620 Thanks buddy, I appreciate it!

Gotta get LS George and the blazer out to one of these events ;)
Non of these could ever keep up with the likes of THE LIL RED WAGON?BACK UP PICKUP,or the HEMI UNDERGLASS.and I'm sure I'm missing a few others also
And the fugitive corvette & chuck wagon were pretty cool and I believe Arnie the farmer Beswick had a gto in the mid 60’s called the tornado that used to wheelie the entire quarter through the traps at 190 mph
Dude that Barracuda was awesome
The owner of that green blower car woke up and chose violence!
The green Hollywood car is hilarious 😂
The green Camaro just loves that wall dont he.
quite obviously a guy who just writes checks, and lacks any common sense, or ability to drive.
@@leftyo9589 he's a crash dummy
That orange big block Gremlin bouncing off the rear bumper and peddling the throttle has got to be my favorite!!
My favorite has always been the Gremlin. He use to race that car in the old NMCA Super Street class.
Love it! Bouncing off the rear bumper!
My favorit? 65 Chevell SS.
How big of fat gals did they have the trunk
The person in the 68 baracuda wins it..totally epic!
Everyone hating on the green camaro. Get a life. He's having fun and entertaining. Yalks some haters
Lol 11:40 mark the green blown car guy is a professional car wrecker
The guy in green camero needs more drivin lesson he just keeps wreckin lol
😂😂😂
The Camaro is trying to get that ugly green paint off.
More money than skill
Some serious torque in them motors
The "Chinto" is setup pretty good. Just the right amount of power and balance... No pedalling or screwing around, just mat it, let go of the transbrake, and let come up and bobble around on the rear bumper by itself. 👌
I love this video. Thank you, I really appreciate watching this. Great job to everyone who competed in the competition. Great job for making the video.
Dude that was epic. Thanks for uploading this yall sure know how to have a good time up north
If your front wheel comes off. ...you are at the wrong event.....lmao!!
Happy New Year, Tom. Thanks for all the great videos. Cheers.
8:55 right here WHAT!!!!!!🤯
By far the craziest driver is in the green blown Camaro with the black top. Balls for years! Crashes more during burnouts than anyone in history!
😂😂😂
Happy new year pal and love the idea of this video from different years
Thanks buddy.
Just AWESOME... Thank you#1
Beautiful Byron Hellinois, my back yard since 1965 R.I.P. MR. RON LEEK
This is an awesome event thanks for the coverage. I've seen a Black 59 Impala a few times. I had seen him at Beech Bend Ky a couple of times and that car has some sic torque in that motor. I knew he would not win the wheel stand event because he couldn't carry the front end that long. Great job Tom.
Thank you so much for sharing!
The older barracuda is it seems other best to set up for wheel stands I love this there’s nothing better than dragracing as long as you’re behind the wheel
As usual, the green Camaro always wrecks. Not a question of if. It’s when.
And the goof is proud of himself!
@@tjohnson9051 got that right! A lot of us would just love to have a car like that.
Moving back to the Midwest this spring so maybe I’ll get to see him do it again.🙄
Oh you ain't kidding friend. Notice the newly painted front fender, that replaced the mess that he destroyed in the last one. What an idiot. Yeah it's a 67
He definitely is having his issues.
I was thinking same thing like what is this guy an idiot ? He almost crashed doing his 1st burnout , so I thought well he wont do that again then the maroon does the same exact thing, lol
Big dummy ends up crashing during the wheelie and seems happy about it ,
Belated Happy New Year!
GR8 vid! Big fan of AJ Fiorelli's Barracuda!
Go AJ......👍👍
Lol...... gotta love it! Many thanx Tom. Got to get to Byron 1 Day. It's on my "Bucket list" 😉
Love it brother and Happy New Year from NC ! Hope you have a great new year brother
Happy Newyear man love the wheel stands they are classic
The guy that drives the green camaro seems to have a grudge against that car,lol !
Fwd guys will never know the fun of doing a wheel stand
Happy New Year back at ya.
Positively stultifying!
When you know what you wanna do with your life. lol. Yup! I'm a subscriber!
Thanks for this AWESOME Inspirational video! DEFINITELY! A FAN!
Thank you! I appreciate it 👍
Wow !!!😳
I never saw a convertible do a wheelie before this video 👍🏽
Thanks for your time and the best.fun👍👍👍👍👍👀😊
Best wheel stands ever seen
Interesting mix of power and skill!
That Gremlin took all four wheels off the ground, and blew the back window out, at a wheel standing event. But the real OG is a 68 Barracuda, hemi-powered, motor in the front, that SOB went the whole 1320 and part of the Slowdown Lane on two wheels. He did it like he was on Rails too. it was amazing to see a car running a 10-second quarter mile, at over 125 miles an hour, on two wheels. No plexiglass floors, either. Balls of steel my friend. Special mention of the car that did a near perfect wheel stand, but veered into the left guard rail on two wheels. When he got close to that guardrail I almost wanted to yell at him, to get out of it. Car was pretty, too. Oh and then there was the green 68 Camaro. Yeah that guy came down too hard and fucked up his car, went into the guardrail. So what does he do? Keeps on doing wheelies until he beats the front end off of it. Yeah, that wasn't his brightest Shining Moment. But yeah, that 68 Barracuda for the win.💯
Fun to watch though👍👍👍👍👍
Happy new year Tom. ‼️ great video lots of awesome memories
Thanks Phil, glad you like the video. I was thinking of you as I was going through video of the Chinto the first year it ran when it was looking new and all and you were in every shot getting Chris into the burnout box. I need to put something together that you and Chris can look back at, really good stuff.
@@tomeighty that would be great
Happy New Year Tom.
As usual > GREAT VIDEO
Thanks buddy, couldn't have done it with out you! ha ha
Dang I thought this was gonna be just one long wheelstand
Heck yeah! Loved it thanks for sharing👍 have a great new year!!!

Thanks Dave! Same to you buddy.
🎯💯☑️ yeah Byron found out what we like, something called yankin them wheels up, just feel the POWER,X ,i going back 2 Byron.😍🤠😎
Fun fun fun.luv
That dude in the Hollywood Camaro needs to give up....that thing is in the wall more then in the air.
the grimlin went close to 600' I went back to see it again
First Clip : Whoa
That was the first wheelie I ever saw at this event back in 2012, I've been hooked on this event every year since then. As I'm sure you can imagine it blew me away watching happen in person. Thank you so much for watching! And Happy New Year to you! Tom
The dude in the green camaro is a glutton for punishment.
Super 💯 Tare 🎉
Byron is always a great show!!!
Frank running the chi town put on a show of his own
@@dennisholst4322 That's a bad @$$ 60!!!!
Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍
Really cool
Wheel Up Friday
Thank You
Tom
Thanks for watching Phillip!
I like the old antique American and Europe car ... 👍😁
Man I love that green camaro XD
Seems like those fast back “Cudas” are wheel standing naturals
Back in the day, when NHRA still did 1/4 miles I had seen a number of wheel standers go the distance on a half mile strip, if I recall they did not nose down until well after the 1/4 mile. The strip, that's easy, was at York US 30 back in the late 70's. Was a great place for drags as there was plenty of over flow area for safety.
Remember one was a tank, one was a cop car, and a few other various vehicles.
By the way that is the same strip where Sammy Miller lost the "Spirit of 76" body one night before he built the "Vanishing Point" the following year. Guess that was 76 or 77 not sure exact year. I do have a photo of the "spirit" in the pits before it came apart.
im convinced the green camaro driver should never drive
37:15 I don't need any front end, it's a wheelie contest. He had to feel how bad it was like crazy and to take it all the way, he launches that many horses with a bad front end. Stuff legends are made of, I was surprised he wasn't stopped by the track staff.
That's insane
The blue Mustang at 4:05 sounds like he is shifting a manual transmission!!
Yeah the green Camaro driver is a legend.
Have a great new year yall
When I read ‘longest wheelie on youtube’ and saw the 55 minute runtime I thought I was going to see a reeeeeealy looooong wheelie 👹I am disappointed 😀🍺😆
I was waiting for a comment like that! That would be an awesome wheelie! Thanks for watching buddy 👍
That’s why you have the wheelie wheels an inch off the ground
Looks like the gremlin left a body on the track.
I know, I thought the same thing when that happened. ha ha. Looked to be a blanket or something.
@@tomeighty I thought it was the driver or his wife. No hunny you don't need a seat belt
1:43 those early barracudas are really good for wheelies, u guys may of seen the orange one that managed to hold a wheelie to the end of the strip, may be the same car but different colour
I still remember wheelstands that lasted the entire 1/4 mile.
Those were purpose built cars meant to do that. These are just normal drag cars
1,200 foot wheelie and it ran an 11 sec pass
@@AnX8765 that's insane
john petri did the first quater mile wheelie in Canada i believe.
hollywood is the king of crashing
Cuda best of all the others 👏 🙌 👌 ❤
Does stuff belongs in a museum
Most of these cars have same problem. All of the weight is in the front. Move all of that weight( engine, tranny) to the rear like Hemi under glass and the little Red Wagon. Then set up your steering like those big old modified pilling tractors, Hand throttle, individual brake pedals for the brakes. Then put a window in the floorboard to see the track while the car is up in the air.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video. I believe... but don't know 100% for sure but the group of guys in this event try to keep the vehicles looking like a regular street car or race car and not a purpose built wheelie car. I know they have a lot of pride in what they do and want to separate themselves from purpose built wheelie cars that are made to do quarter mile wheelies with no problems. These kind of wheelie have an art to it between balance off the back bumper and the amount of power you can throw at it before the rear tires get off the ground and slam the car back down to earth.
Hollywood should change the lettering to SmashGood 😮
YT sucks they haven't put any of your videos on. I have to put your name in any time I want to see your vids!!!! The YT algorithm keeps pushing Bullshit and not showing me stuff iM actually subbed too. You Are still the BEST for Racing videos on YT by far!!!
Thanks buddy I really appreciate it. And yes YT is super weird on recommendations of videos. I seem to get almost 95% of my views from non subscribers. I'll take what I can get, I'm really blessed with the amount if views I get on my videos, Thanks for watching 👍
The guy in the green Camaro just doesn’t have natural drivin talent he destroyed the car 🤦🏼♂️😂
Yeah, that dude just needs to give up. It just looks like he's a showoff without the talent to back it up.
"BITCHIN!"
The guy in the green camaro should rename his car captain hook instead of Hollywood. ....
100% every time he ran something went wrong
A good wheelie to me is when the car leaves and carries the front tires about a foot off the ground for about 30 to 40 feet and settles down nice and smooth
I saw a car one time at Firebird Raceway in Idaho lift the left front tire just about 3 inches off the ground for the whole 1/8th mile. The right tire stayed on the ground. I thought man what kind of power does it take to do something like that. Unreal.
@@tomeighty are there rules for these? the reason i ask that is there has always been real wheelstanders at the drags. there set up to where they mash the gas n run the whole track with ease. are those type not allowed i presume?
6:06 baby!
Holy moley that Chevy wagon sounds shag nasty!
Well the pinto got all four wheels off the ground I see, as well. Yeah I don't know if it was Byron Dragway but it was definitely another wheel stander event, because that 68 Barracuda that went the full 1320 and change, was in the right lane.
😲🔥😲
Hollywood likes the walls
I like the red Oldsmobile he did a really the whole track
Wheelie
These are all wanna bees!.. My Pop General Jerry Lee rode a wheelstand at the Bonniville salt flat for 20 miles in 1969.... Let's keep it real here guy's!
