  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ก.พ. 2025
  • In this video, I take you inside the world of the fastest, most insane accelerating vehicles on the planet - the Top Fuel dragster. With speeds reaching over 330 mph in just seconds, these machines are an absolute spectacle. But with that kind of power comes the need for next-level safety.
    As NHRA continues to improve driver safety, the latest regulations require new seat and head padding systems. Join me as I get fitted to a brand new dragster chassis, made to meet the latest safety standards. Watch the process as I get geared up to handle the immense G-forces, all while staying safe at these blistering speeds!
    Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to follow my journey inside the world of Top Fuel drag racing!!!

      A lot of his friends and other TH-cam folks should take notes from Clays his videos contain so much information but they're not long and draw out.

    Clay should get some kind of award for always showing us fans all the "behind the curtain" content we wouldn't ever get to see otherwise. Stuff that happens at the track and the shop that many may not realize has to happen to keep the wheels turnin and burnin!!! Keep it coming!!!
