@@AdmiralTom Dude, very short exposure to 115dB+ is pretty damn bad for your hearing. It's sustained 85dB where it starts to affect your hearing and above that the exposure time decreases dramatically before it has permanent damage. 150dB is instant permanent damage.
These cars are so awesome to watch,I love taking people to the races who have never seen them,and to see their reactions.I live 15 miles from the Atlanta Dragway in Commerce Ga.,and you can hear the fuel cats when the run.You can hear the burnouts and the full run,it's amazing.I have actually set inside my house,with the front door open,and listen to the runs,while watching it on tv.Its so funny to here the run,while on tv they are still on the line,then they launch.You get a few seconds delay,so it's a trip to listen,then watch what you just heard.
Being in the track side bleachers when two of these things explode down the track is disorienting. Your eyeballs flex so hard that everything you see pulsates like a cartoon. Hard to imagine standing between them.
@Ryan Green I doubt that. Maybe they said it somewhere in the video and i missed it but 312km/h is only 194mph. Being that this toys have 10k bhp and even the usual 1k hp cards do the 1/4 running at 200mph at the end i imagine top fuel drags would reach the goal at much higher speeds than the usual tuner cars.
I always love taking newbies to their first NHRA race to see their reaction to the Top Fuel dragster and funny cars. Explaining it is never enough. Watching it on video is not enough. You have to feel the power in your chest and then you will be hooked for life.
They've done it for safety reasons cars are going too fast now and not enough shut down area to slow the cars down it was either go the cheap route and shorten to 1000ft or make all the tracks pay to extend the shutdown area another 400ft and not every track has the room to do so
Gotta love the 15 gallons of nitromethane being burned in 4 seconds and the big cloud of exhaust blocking the view of the wind turbine in the background
Indeed. It has been something that's always impressed me. They pump/burn it quicker than if you were to take an open 5 gallon bucket filled and turn it upside down. Just sorta gives you an image of how quick they gulp it down!
Shit ten second naturally aspirated cars should still be considered fast & respected. well they are to me. Most guys who build a car in their garage are doing it saving to buy parts peice by peice, doing all the work themselves maybe a friend or two to help out occasionally.
@@Moparmaga-1 Do it yourself dosnt mean shit to me or anyone else that works more then 1 job and is over 60 hours a week. If someone wants to build there own car because they have the time, resources and friends to help then good for them but by no means does that make it more impressive it just means they have more free time literally.
What’s amazing is the two times I’ve been to an NHRA race when I was kid, watching them disassemble and assemble those engines every couple of passes. They do it so quickly. Best of the best engine builders working side by side
It's cool to come back to this vid after a year and now know Brent's reaction from him and the boosted boyz hanging out with top fuel couple of weeks ago.
@4:06 When you lift a tire with that wheelbase....just another indicator of the insane power these things make. Go see these things live if you can people!! 11/10 would recommend!
In 1999 I applied to NHRA to be their internet coordinator (webmaster really). I was asked to come back for a live race day test at the Winter Nats. My future boss, Phil Burgess, surprised me by taking me down to the starting line for TF. I was fortunate enough to get to stand with Rick Stewart for several runs. Coolest thing ever. It was like armageddon - you can't hear anything, you can't see anything, and your eyeballs just rattle around in your head. I will never forget that experience, thanks Phil!
I've experienced it but from the stands and my eyes still burned and it still hits you in the chest.. I can only imagine what it's like from where you are
Nice to see you there dude, i grew up at Santa pod in the 80’s/90’s my dad ran the pod shop for a while so i used to get the chance to experience that sound from the start line, rear (cow shed) & the tower, AWESOME doesn’t say enough!
I cry at every drag race I go to and not because of the fumes but because of the pure power and feel of two 10,000 hp cars ripping down the track. Best feeling in the world !!!!
@@xertzeg4327 yup mine ring all the time too, there is no recovering it, I have plugs in the work van all the time incase I end up somewhere really loud as it's really easy to make them ring louder for a couple days if I'm not careful
The past few years I have had the privilege to work on Tierp Arena in sweden. As cleanup crew on the track. I have opportunity every year to experience the feeling of standing between 2 TF launching. It's amazing
It will blow your mind, back in the 1980s during the summer I could hear top fuel cars 10 miles away in the neighboring city. If you've ever been to a NFL game particularly Seattle Seahawks it's loud as hell, times it by 10 & the decibel level will be close or if you've ever stood next to someone firing a big bore rifle like a 50 bmg . take That blast and hold it for nearly 4 seconds
Great video Kyle thanks for coming to the UK and putting some Top Fuel action on TH-cam, see if you can find a GoPro mount that will work on a Top Fuel car for when you come back.
I'm glad you do this. The new guys getting into racing haven't really heard about top fuels and really have no idea what they are missing. It's an insane experience please film more of these.
This is the best top fuel racing video I have ever seen. Up close action and viewer friendly editing makes this a blast to watch from start to end. Happy I've been a subscriber!
I was camping with my school one weekend in grendon i think, and i could hear the top fuel dragsters and jet cars ripping down Santa pod until about 10 mp, it was incredible to think i could hear them even though i was at least 5 miles away
To the people bitching about hearing protection, look at 3:29 just one of many shots where you can see ear plugs. Granted I think he should have had more but it’s better than nothing.
i've been there without hearing protection (as a child, i'd thought i'd try that cause i'm dumb as fuck), big big big mistake, your instant reaction is to cover your ears immediately at all cost without thinking about it -- if kyle wasn't wearing ear protection you would most certainly know about that
Uncle Mike took me to Santa Pod as a child. The noise from the funnies and the dragsters are in my nervous system. So glad to revisit this. Take double ear protection and feel it!
Man it’s been years since I’ve seen top fuel live. It’s so worth it! Feel the horsepower in your chest from the stands. Even if you don’t like drag racing anyone would like this experience. Except maybe the burning eyes lol. I had the biggest smile on my face this whole video. I need to go see some top fuel live!
You can ONLY experience this in person to get the effect. If you don't ever go to at least one, you don't know what you're missing! It is literally the only thing I have watched that drains my energy because of the power those things give off! Trust me, if you don't wear ear protection, you will get get IMMEDIATE and PERMANENT damage to your hearing. The sound is so loud, it literally warps your vision for about 2-3 seconds. It's unlike anything I've ever been to in my entire life. I'm hooked now 💯
Only two things in my life that have shaken me to the core like that. Top Fuel Dragsters and the Space Shuttle. And the shuttle was from around 15 miles away.
I never tire of watching top fuelers. I was in a US Army engineer company in the 80s. We did training exercises at Hahn Airbase one time. We were at the end of the runway. We watched F 16s take off all day long. The only thing better than top fuel!! They'd cut the afterburner on and the sound was DEAFENING!!! And these pretty blue diamonds would form in the exhaust from the shock waves!!
I love your video's, seems like you're reading a book but can't stop reading it till it's done. Driver's seems like good people, love Maya for her courage and wish her the best to come,lovely smile.
Grandfather used to race NHRA in Kansas, Topeka. Top fuel. Standing next to those beasts shakes your body to the core. Sitting inside one while it's running is so intense. I have been to probably 50 drag races with these things, you never get 100% used to it.
That Gopro footage was sick for the first 3 seconds. Even tho racing is still A male dominant sport it is cool seeing females getting A shot and being competitive.
@@nitroustommy3668 Wrong. There are no studies that suggest that. In almost all physical competition, men have a clear advantage as they are stronger and faster. In something like this, men and women are equal.
I love Liam's story. "I bet you won't race top fuel," and the man goes and races top fuel. What a lad I love slow-mo footage of top fuel. You can see the firing order as flames come out the zoomies.
Love Santa pod it’s the only drag strip we have in the uk that’s opened for events and public!! I live round the corner from there love listening to all the cars and machines 🔥🔥💪🏽 glad you enjoyed your time hope see you there again sometime
Closest I've been was at Heartland Nationals in Topeka. Standing at the fence next to the right lane. The launch is amazing. It's definitely something you have to experience to fully understand.
I never paid much attention to top fuel drag cars like this, probably just because they don’t look like normal cars maybe. I’ve really been missing out, these things are insane. Watching them launch reminds me of watching the Munsters when they used sped up video to make the cars look fast. They are fucking rocketships.
Winner is Lady from Finland, Anita Mäkelä. She started racing in 1987. She has won numerous titles , twice in Top Alcohol and 3 Top Fuel European Chapionships. She and her husband are chicken farmers. And now she has title of fastest Top Fuel pass in Europe.
The first time I saw Jurrasic park when I heard the T-rex roar the first time I thought that must have been inspired by a top fuel experience. 😃👍 I broke my cherry back in the 70's when they weren't as loud (I think) but still shook your soul and rattled them bones. yeah nothing like those nitro fumes to clear out the sinuses and tear ducts. first time thought I was gonna die and your eyes are tearing up so bad you can't see where to go to get out of it. such good memories. thank you for all the great videos one of my favorite channels.
all I can say is "NICE!" Kyle, I love your passion for the strip and street. A big heart felt Thank you. When you jumping behind the wheel for a 4 second pass?
I remember my uncle having a hangover and us going to nhra the next morning while John force was testing at his pit we put him at the front he came out crying and screaming for us😂😂😂
Thank you again 1320 always so much better than any network coverage. If you were not prohibated from filming US top fuel you could steal the show. So much more interesting than network coverage.
I like this video a lot, I think you really captured the atmosphere of top fuel. I was actually at Santa Pod that day with my brother and it’s great to see your perspective on it!

dragster is 150db loud, earplugs are minus 35db at best so stil 115db in his ears

Its one thing to watch it on youtube and completely different to feel the vibrations these dragsters produce.
Being in the track side bleachers when two of these things explode down the track is disorienting. Your eyeballs flex so hard that everything you see pulsates like a cartoon. Hard to imagine standing between them.
@@soyounoat it shakes your fucking teeth its incredible
And smell em. The smell is wild
The feeling is just indescribable dude.
Being at starting line it's so loud you see spots in front of your eyes and everything's blurry for a minute
Imagine how slow 30 mph feels after going 312 mph. You know like when you get off the highway after doing 85 now your creeping at 30 lol.
definitely lmao
And speed racer got traumatized for going over 200mph, what a pussy xD
well its in the UK so the speed might be in km/h. Im curious which they used

I doubt that. Maybe they said it somewhere in the video and i missed it but 312km/h is only 194mph. Being that this toys have 10k bhp and even the usual 1k hp cards do the 1/4 running at 200mph at the end i imagine top fuel drags would reach the goal at much higher speeds than the usual tuner cars.

The first time I saw Jurrasic park when I heard the T-rex roar the first time I thought that must have been inspired by a top fuel experience. 😃👍 I broke my cherry back in the 70's when they weren't as loud (I think) but still shook your soul and rattled them bones. yeah nothing like those nitro fumes to clear out the sinuses and tear ducts. first time thought I was gonna die and your eyes are tearing up so bad you can't see where to go to get out of it. such good memories. thank you for all the great videos one of my favorite channels.
That looks intense!
all I can say is "NICE!" Kyle, I love your passion for the strip and street. A big heart felt Thank you. When you jumping behind the wheel for a 4 second pass?
I remember my uncle having a hangover and us going to nhra the next morning while John force was testing at his pit we put him at the front he came out crying and screaming for us😂😂😂
Thank you again 1320 always so much better than any network coverage. If you were not prohibated from filming US top fuel you could steal the show. So much more interesting than network coverage.
I’d wear more than just ear plugs for hearing protection.. You probably just prematurely aged your ears by 25yrs lol
Thanks Kyle. A big thanks to Suzanne for great behind the scenes insight.
Where are your earplugs Kyle?!?!
Deep down inside his ears.
They have fallen inside.
No need
He's wearing ear plugs. I wonder if that's enough, though :/
Goggles for the eyes, respirator for the lungs and ear muffs for the ear drums. Sounds like a very fun day at the track
There's nothing like a good old fashioned Nitro Burn! 😭😁
Been to see Top Fuel at Santa Pod, unforgettable experience. Must go back sometime.
Omggggg the sound
I like this video a lot, I think you really captured the atmosphere of top fuel. I was actually at Santa Pod that day with my brother and it’s great to see your perspective on it!
