Also, funny story. I was a massive fan of Fitz-Bradshaw in this era. For no other reason than their cars looked badass. They were unbelievably slow, but looked great
7:41 Brian Sockwell's crash at Nashville was more brutal than most realize - he hit the wall opening similar to Jeff Fuller at Kentucky. Cracked the lexan windows, tore the motor mounts, bent the truck arms, bent the dash... hit so hard on the passenger side, the driver's side was also bent without touching anything. Scary considering he wasn't even up to speed yet. NASCAR took the car to R&D, they kept the steering wheel, the seat and the HANS device. Car was absolutely destroyed. I think we pulled the motor out of it and junked the rest. Dick Berggren came over to the pits and did an interview and they showed the car up close, but I haven't seen that interview on RUclips anywhere.
The gen4 was the last true race car NASCAR ran.... I say that from a standpoint that you could take an arca car, change a few things and run it in a busch race... Or a cup race.. And vice versa.. a local late model team could build a cup car and try to qualify it.... Those days are long gone now. Arca, Xfinity, and cup are all completely different race cars now that have few similarities.. NASCAR claims to want to cut costs down.. But the gen 4 era was literally the most economically viable for a team. You could enter the same rolling chassis and body into 3 different series, with only setup and engine changes

For the Dover race: while no upload is currently up, someone did make a clip compilation of all crashes in the race.

16:47 - that was the most destructive big one of the season

Man, Dodge was stacked in the Busch Series in this season.
I miss the gen 4 era. Those cars were 100 times more racy than the garbage they have in xfinity and cup nowadays. They should've never changed
