    As a motorcycle and V8 enthusiast, I remember my first visit to the top fuelers back in the late eighties. “Take hearing protection,” they said. “It’s louder than you’ll believe,” they said. “Pfft, how loud can a V8 be, I said.” How little I knew.

      Those are absolutely incredible. If you're standing next to the return lane at the 50' mark, you can feel the organs in your body vibrate when they go by. I only felt that in one other situation. Under an F-4 at full AB

    When I was young in the late 60's early 70's my older brother would take me to Oxford Plains Speedway drag strip in Maine. I'll never forget how loud the cars were and that fuel smell. They let you walk freely all around the pit area and I remember many classic cars like English Anglias and those big oval beautiful Willy's cars the most. My brother used to buy all the drag racing magazines and when I moved to Florida in 1998 I went to the Don Garlitts drag racing museum and right as I walked in the first thing that greeted me was the famous Little Red Wagon I had seen on the magazine covers 30 years earlier. It was a van/pickup known for doing wheelies the whole length of the strip and it was set up at the front door up on two wheels so you could see the entire undercarriage. Incredible.

    I watched Antron Brown at the first New England Nationals held at New England Dragway in New Hampshire a few years ago and during a qualifying run his car had tire shake so bad that both parachutes came out and the car hadn’t gone 60 feet but Antron didn’t know it so he quickly got off and back on the throttle and made a full pass. I don’t remember the ET but he went 299mph pulling two fully opened parachutes it was a very impressive display of the kind of power those cars possess as those chutes were just along for the ride.

    • @robertbenoit5374
      @robertbenoit5374 Před 2 lety

      They didn't cut it in half they cut it to 1000 feet for Nitro cars because of Scott Kalitta getting killed. Some of the older tracks don't have ability to build a big runoff area which is what the NHRA required after Scott died. Crew Chiefs are engineers, they will find a way to make more power and in turn more speed. Part of that innovation was because of Austin Coil, Bernie Fedderly, Jimmie Prock, Dean Antonelli, Dan Hood, John Medlen and a host of others that I can't think of right now.

    I was there, it was a Monday early to finish the race because as usual Maple Grove had bad weather over the weekend of the race. It wasn't very crowded and the crowd was easy going (all real race fans), it was damp but not cold. I just knew someone was going to beak the record that day. After all its Maple Grove in October, records fall and are made. Antron's Top Fuel left the hole stuck like his slicks were made of juicy fruit gum and he seemed to hit the 330ft mark like it was the 60ft mark. When he crossed the 1/8th mile (660ft) with the clutch fully engaged, straight as an arrow, and continuing to increase acceleration it LOOKED SO FRICKIN' GOOD!!! What was weird about that run was the sound; it was noticeably louder and was just so short, I mean he was just GONE!!!

    These guys get around 5 G's, but nowhere G-loc for trained pilots.
    The g thresholds at which these effects occur depend on the training, age and fitness of the individual. An un-trained individual not used to the G-straining maneuver can black out between 4 and 6 g, particularly if this is pulled suddenly. A trained, fit individual wearing a g suit and practicing the straining maneuver can, with some difficulty, sustain up to 12-14g without loss of consciousness. The "Blue Angels"[citation needed] have to perform their maneuvers without the aid of flight-suits, and regularly sustain 3-5 second bursts of 10 g thresholds

      altitude doesn't mean much with the NItro cars, that is why they don't have issues at Mile High dragway in Denver but the Pro stock cars do. However, cooler temperatures helps with grip and speed because they dont need to roll back some of the power settings like if it was hot and slick.

    1:22 You can see both cars light up before the green
    but the staging distance (a few inches back of the start line?)
    was probably enough for the green to come on before they crossed the start line.
    And the yellows and the green were both on momentarily.
    Bottom line - if there was no distance between the cars and the start line
    both cars would have red lighted.
    That's as close as you can cut it :-0)

    The presenter of this video should know the difference between "fastest" and "quickest." An NHRA drag car can set records in either category or both...but saying one when you mean the other is a cardinal sin in Drag Racing...
