I can't imagine the absolute ear-wreckage of being near 3000 hp cars. I've been in the stands near cars making maybe a bit over 1000hp and it was ridiculously loud
It hurts so good! Sitting in the car is even better, you can get a nice breath of methanol exhaust to make your eyes and nose burn! Wouldn't trade it for anything!
I highly recommend going to an NHRA national event. If that’s not possible, find the closest track and find out if they have a nostalgia nitro event. Eddyville Raceway Park in Iowa has an event every year called the Night of Fire. Small tracks like that typically allow you to get closer to the action.
I doubt it's still allowed, but back in the 70's, I was allowed to stand about 8 feet to the side of the top fuelers during launch. Aside from every effort to protect my ears, the most noticeable thing upon launch was my CHEST hurt from the pounding. It's THAT loud. The second thing was that a few seconds later, a stream of little black droplets of burned rubber floated down on to my clothes. What's more, the engines these days probably have near twice the power.
Easy to get into the "200" club .get a motorcycle and go to ky.motor speedway..no i dont live in ky been there with friends .good time .but drag racing is my passion Built a street/ strip car. Lots of fun with family and friends
Look how cool mikes injector hat is!! If you notice when the butterfly’s open the center support for the butterfly Rod is also a fuel rail that is misting the air entering the injector hat thus cooling it way down. Methanol is a beautiful thing because of its natural cooling effect. This is why turbo Promod’s running alky don’t need a intercooler because the fuel does it naturally
Not only is it a great evaporative chiller but the methanol is being sprayed in to lubricate the blower. Actual racing blowers normally utilize teflon stripped rotors. The better the rotor to rotor & rotor to case seal is, the better the performance. They don't run dry very well, just trashed in short order.
mytmousemalibu your right the extra fuel up top will help cool and lubricate the rotors. But it displaces air in a lot of cases. The OD strips are nylatron and the rotor to rotor strips are Teflon . Most teams have gone away from stripping blowers each run. Many of the teams run Bill Miller’s rotors and end frames and we go many runs before we strip them.
mytmousemalibu now days we run Astro glide in the blower luber set to go off at about 2.8-3.0 seconds in the run so the rotors don’t run dry during the lean out phase or after the fuel shut of is hit by the driver. You see every one knows guys run “hat nozzles” above the rotors to cool and lube and the 4 dribbler ports in the back of the blower case. But now guys are running a hatomozer spray bar from Don Jackson or the trick injector Mike makes as a intercooler . It sprays a super fine mist to pull the heat out of the air . If your ever at a NHRA national event stop by the snap on funny car pit I’m the guy with the big tool box playing with blowers fuel and ignition all day
Not just A drag car....everyone should experience top fuel dragsters at least once in their lifetime. If you want to physically feel the power of these cars without having to ride in one....those are the ones to see.
Outstanding coverage, outstanding cars, outstanding racing! Be careful Kyle, you guys might get used to that VIP treatment over there and never come home. :) They really do know how to do things right don't they.
Todd tutelow. I bought a stretched connecting rod with signature at a pro mood race in Rockingham around 2006-2007. Thanks for the good time! God speed.

Man I need a hot rod. Something about drag racing makez me happy. One day ill have a racecar. Even a 10 second car will be enough. Thanks for these videos

FUCK LS HEMI POWER NOTHING FASTER ALL TOP FUEL CARS ARE HEMIS MY MAN HAS A 528CI HEMI IN a 64 Plymouth 9sec pumpgas 4speed not tubbed no cage real street car he drives it all the time best et 9.06 at 149.8 but got kicked off cuz no roll cage
The most awesome thing about this video is that it shows that no matter where you come from, what your background is, we all love cars, racing and having fun. :)
Qatar, where the money goes faster than the cars. When a lot younger, I loved going to US 30 Drag Strip in Gary, IN. Loved watching the rails and funny cars. Later the cars would run in different classes, they all looked slow in comparison. Now I prefer a factory muscle car, a car most can buy but not drive because of high insurance rates. Paid a little more to sit in pit row. Good times are gone, but I have those memories. They even had the Green Monster on tour, a jet engine powered vehicle. Reaction time can make you a winner or loser. The laptops are so valuable for the adjustments needed.
Cool as hell. Makes you appriciate how bad arse the Pro Line Hemi's are though, making 2200hp more than one if these. Our Australian Top Doorslammers make a bit more power than these too- that'll do a touch over 3000hp at the hubs! The 2 way dyno battle held at the Summernats this year was mind blowing- a 3000+hp run from a well known Top Doorslammer going up against a turbo Commodore which put out 3076hp for the win, best 2 outta 3! Bad arse shit. Especially indoors. Wow, what a sound
I grew up down the road. Always used to park on that backroad and cross the highway on foot. I worked there in high school I would quit on em every Sunday after lunch.
Totally about to be that guy but Tutterow brought his pro mod out to our local track(piedmont in NC) and the sound was unbelievable. I think he set the record there too. Come to think of it I think they stopped letting pro mods in after that, wish I could remember the time.
The reason why it doesnt have many people visiting is because the drag strip is about 30-50 min drive away from any major towns and in doha the traffic keeps you driving for about an hour to an hour and a half
JANCEN stuff is top of the line!! I grew up around brad Anderson so I’m a bit partial but mikes stuff is winning in many different motor sports classes. He is just a great dude💪🏼😎
There's a bunch of oil princes up in the box watching this like it's the Kentucky derby lolll Love funny cars though anywhere but it's funny seeing them in Qatar, probably the only time you'll see those cars racing outside NHRA
small slick tire or possibly even a radial tire car. with a radial tire you want the tire to dead hook from a launch and not wheelspin like a slick. so with that being said, with radial tire car or small slick tire cars you dont want to put to much power down on the launch or youll blow the tires off. launch soft and then start pouring the power in. we have the same style of drag racing here in the U.S of A.
That dyno maxed out 2995 hp not the car . thing weighs 2,550 lbs with well over 3,000hp lol insane . I like the vette at 15:00 also listen to how sticky the track is that's incredible , I used to race 1/4's on a "00"Cbr 929rr bolt on' s + spray in early 00's and never seen conditions like that (sticky) but woulda been fun . always like when the tuner hides the laptop screen lol like he's discovered time travel ....
Well from listening to those pro mod guys talk it looks like Stevie and Ricky don't have any competition in the talking department guys there's a reason Stevie Jackson and Ricky Smith are the two most famous pro mod drivers today!
is their a rule against tire heaters? if i was racing id have a wrap u throw over the wheel somethin like a wheel cover with simple controls so u could dial the tire in or does that fresh patch of rubber help so much that it would b pointless to heat them up before hand because u still need lay a patch whiches goin to heat them up anyway..?
Loved the content, especially in the workshop walk round, the guy with the endoscope made me chuckle, I couldn't make head nor tail of the picture, just like when I was looking at the picture of my boy in his mum's belly lol.
Awesome cars but these cars as well as Al-Annabi Racing (AAP and AAR) are owned by Khalid bin Hamad Al Thani. That's the same jerk who a few years ago was driving his Ferrari recklessly through a residential neighborhood in L.A. running stop signs ect. When he got busted he claimed diplomatic immunity then fled back to Qatar.
Don't get me wrong I'm glad they're racing over there but it would be cooler if it were everyday people and not some royal brat who just got done honor killing his cousin for farting in public.
I may have missed this but can someone tell me why they are running 1/8th? I assume elsewhere in the world it was because of track issues, maybe size, available run off limited, but can't see why that would apply here, purpose built by the looks of it and would think it would be made for a 1/4 so why only an 1/8th? genuinely interested to know....

what kind of V6 is in that black Vette?
its from a buick grand national. turbo 3.8L
If it's the same one from an older video, it's a very big custom built V6. Something like 500ci. They built it to be the fastest V6 powered car.
