Those are some nice pics dude...! Just a correction though, the cars that are Cobalts are Called "Pro Stock" those cars typically run 6.70 to 6.80 over 200MPH however the only thing cobalt on those are the bodies, chassis is carbon fiber and crome molly, engines are typically around 800Cubic inches and they run on Hi-Octane Gasoline (only pro class that does use GAS in NHRA) all the rest use a combination of Nitro-Methane and Methanyol.. 90% Nitro 10% alcohol or just straight Methanyol..

When those top fuel cars leave the line and you get that rumble in your chest and it kinda pushes you back, thats the best feeling in the world of just RAW horsepower.. 6000 actually...

i dont think i said they were top fuel cars?? i dunno. i didnt take much pictures of any of the super gas or pro stock cars running, a lot of top fuel funny cars and rail cars running though

when the dragsters left the line, i was sitting in like the 5th row, and you're right the rumble nearly shakes you out of your seat and you can feel the air being sucked away from you. its so intense, i love it. this was the 4th year i've been.. thank god for ear plugs!!


nevermind, is ee where i said it. my bad! thanks for the correction lol
