Lol pretty sure no bugatti can go triple the speed let alone even come close in acceleration
@Oren, try like about 1/20 the power lol Top fuel dragsters make about 10000 Hp, the number isn't know exactly because there isn't a engine dyno that can handle that power to be able to dyno it but it is estimated to be right around there
The block is used for more then one race, everything she is replaced, but the blocks do have a race limit I forget how many till its replaced, the blocks are crazy strong and are usually intact after explosions like this
That dragster could be dead realy a Bugatti and ultimate aero can go triple the speed
Winning doesn't matter. This man is able to walk away from that. Show some passion people.
I agree Toyota is junk but it doesn't have anything to do with this dragster and its not a team design motor it is a Cnc machined hemi design motor 100% aluminum block and all and only last one race
Aaron, I have only been twice... But that's my favorite part! Even if you guys aren't into drag racing, you really should go just once. It's an experience like no other.
@Aaron I agree! It's awesome Haha GT-R fanboys would have absolutely no say in this article if there going to talk about the GT-R because that has absolutely nothing to deal with top fuel dragsters Haha
Lou it's always fun to stand in the tunnel under the track when they run, rumbled the hell out of you.
No it's not because its a toyota, that has nothing to do with why that happend Any other one can do the same things and plus this engines have pretty much nothing to do with Toyota all the top dragster teams make there own engines blocks in the own CNN machines which pretty much has nothing to do with Toyota or any of the other brands!
I suppose on the positive note it can be classed as a win he did cross the line first
Don't know why car company's don't inspire to this when designing there crumple zones
For those of you who've never been to one of these events, don't stand too close to the burnout box or the staging lights: dragsters burn nitro an it burns you eyes and lungs!
That was the scariest thing I have ever seen. It just vaporized and exploded! Did you hear the hick that cheered when it blew?
It's very difficult to describe a Top Fuel dragster. You just have to physically be there and experience it.
That was crazy! Going to these is always nuts. They are ridiculously fast and loud.
Its called engineering Marlo, that's why it doesn't happen often
Drag Race Tuesdays.
What does DRT mean? Cause I forgot :(
These monstrosities are soooo incredibly highly strung I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. Lucky guy.
