    I have a feeling that this is part of the plan to re-imagine dragster. But due to the secrecy of the project, I doubt that the folks running the UA-cam channel would say anything about it in the replies on this video, let alone have clearance to that information. I have a gut feeling that Top Thill Dragster's refurbishment will be revealed at IAAPA in a couple weeks, giving us details on who is working on it, likely a new name, changes to the launch, and other potential additions to the ride experience.
