Fun fact: They wear kevlar vests to protect against shrapnel. I've got 5 words that describe these monsters perfectly: "No thanks. But I'll watch."
Yeah the dudes that take part in this are very ballsy!
I would give my left 🥜 to drive one of these fuck it they can have them both I ain't having anymore kids
They run up to $150,000 to build and then you have maintenance costs that rack up quick. Reason to win a lot
Sounds like an expensive passion! Is there a lot of prize money at these events?
@@kabirconsiders loyal sponsorships and yes there’s some money but nothing like top fuel drag cars
Kabir Considers continues his journey down the "Go Fast" rabbit hole... 🏁👍😁
The journey continues lol
A mix of Top Fuel Harleys and Top Fuel Bikes.
"How a top fuel dragster works" please. Goes through pretty much everything about them in like 15 minutes. Insanely good video.
I made a video on that last week but it got blocked by UA-cam :(
@@kabirconsiders oh of course it did. The ONE video I wanted you to watch lol. Do you still have the file? I'd still be interested if you just sent it through a DM.
@@kabirconsiders you should start a secondary channel on a site like BitChute. A lot of reaction channels do that, and upload to both.
The bikes are that long to counteract wheelies. The longer the distance from the point of rotation ( the rear tire), the more torque it takes to lift the front tire. It also makes it easier to steer.
And yes, the burn out is to heat the tires. The friction heat the rubber to soften it and it also cleans debris from the surface of the tire. Soft rubber sticks to the track for better traction. The rubber is so soft that if they drove over a gravel road, the slick tire would look like a chocolate donut with sprinkles on it.
Awesome, thanks for answering my questions Glenn! Cool to know that the burnouts serve a purpose in addition to just looking badass
do not forget the drive train on these bikes is quite long. The 'heating' of the tires is more to do with getting a fresh rubber face on the pavement. the launch area is also high rubber content driven into the pavement which helps to grip.
You are correct. They make circa 1500 bhp and weigh nothing
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
A few years back Streetspeed717 took his McClaren720 over 200mph on a section of closed highway.
We have a motorcycle event here locally called Lucky 7-11. It’s held every July at Huntsville Dragway. Mostly blacks that attend. I’ve been to a few back in the early to mid 2000s. Motorcycle show, and motorcycle drag racing of all classes.
I know a long time ago they used to have titanium blocks and they used the old radial aircraft engine pistons and jugs on them wild ride
You don't take a corner on these bikes. The corner takes YOU. 😂
Lol very true!
03:07 You feel fibration even after race ca 12h.
There are also dragsters, both cars & bikes, that are powered by jet engines. There's no racing division or class for them, but they are a special attraction at drag races & car shows. When I was a kid, I saw Art Arfon's Green Monster jet dragster at a local dragstrip.
I need to see some video of that, you’ve got to be a little crazy to drive a jet engine powered car!
Look up cleetus mcfarland
@@kabirconsiders look up fireforce 3 jet funny car. It's a UK based car
You may have heard about the tv host Richard Hammond’s experience in a jet-powered dragster, but if not, it’s an insane sight.
Last Harley drags I was at was in the early 2000s and they cost about $100,000 to build probably around $150 now
Can't wait till you see the jet cars and jet trucks
Me too, I’ll do it next week!
The guy in the second clip with the spider man painted on his leathers holds the world record for the class
This is the only place you’ll find a parachute on a motorcycle.
They’re mounted on the wheelie bars. Stopping that way must as wild a ride as the launch!
It's also worth looking up Eric Teboul rocket bike. That guys mad
I'll check it out!
@@kabirconsiders the guy is a nutter to put it mildly.
The first two cars were Top Fuel Harleys, which are running 98% nitro "straight from the can," but they're normally aspirated. The next two cars were from a different class, in that they're allowed to run superchargers, and they're not limited to Harley Davidson engines. The man in the right lane was "Larry The Spiderman," and he's run (I believe) as much as 275 mph in a quarter mile. If I may editorialize, anybody who climbs on a bike, with his personal ass hanging out in the wind at up to 275 mph, that person is stone cold f*cking nuts. Nothing personal.
Yeah, there was only like 2-3 Harley's in this video...
From my experience some people cover their ears the whole time even when the cars are practically stock. Depending on how sensitive your ears are nitro harleys might hurt your ears but you definitely need to cover up your ears on funny cars and dragsters. Or you can end up like my gpa who can’t hear shit anymore 😂. Awesome video sad I found it late but definitely subbing. I’m going to three events this year, I’m so excited for New England dragway this weekend lol
I think I’ll definitely bring a pair of ear protectors when I go to my first event 😂 and thanks for subbing mate!
Kevlar breastplates are basically bulletproof vests. I have yet to see nitro harley drag bikes, but I did see Larry (Spiderman) McBride and Dave Vantine top fuel four cylinder deag bikes. These bikes along with some supercharged nitro harleys have a parachute to slow them down.
They do what you call a burnout to get the back tire sticky so they grip the track
Nice, thanks for answering my question mate!
@@kabirconsiders You're welcome
07:20 costs this bike 250.000 USD and up .. 50.000 is customed Harley price .
$250k! A lot more than I thought
man you need to go to Santa Pod and film yourself watching it live so we can react to you. remember ticket price pays for the full seat, but you will only need the edge, BE THERE.
I will 100% pay a visit to santa pod soon!
Thoroughly enjoying all of the videos on motorsports . Keep up the great work!
Thanks mate, more on the way :)
One big class of drag racing you should not miss. Jet Dragsters and Jet Trucks?
Realize that these bike drivers have their own personal asses hanging out in the wind, going 220-230 mph from a dead stop in a quarter mile. I wouldn't be worrying about the "thrill of victory" as much as I would about "the agony of defeat." I've talked to some drivers of these machines at NHRA drag meets, and they say the commonly accepted numbers are at the 1000-hp level for one of these engines on a good run. They're very difficult to set up and tune, even for an experienced crew chief, due to atmospheric changes throughout the day. A driver may turn an absolutely wonderful run one time, and then an hour later the bike will fall on its face. Like the old rock and roll song goes, "when you're hot, you're hot, and when you're not, you're not."
They warm the tires before takeoff so they stick to the rubber already on the track. I do believe (I could be wrong) theyre that long to keep them down, the wheelie bars are for added insurance. Red light is a false start. Cost all depends on how fast you want to go plus nitro methane isnt cheap
Awesome, thanks for answering my questions Tommy
Of course grew with my dad telling me stories of racing his 68 396BBC Chevelle on the streets of FL, so ive come to enjoy the racing sceen lol
The cost to build a bike like that runs upward of 80k. 80k is the minimum.
Quite pricey!
I've done bits of racing in my life, including motorcycle racing. These guys though... These blokes are nuts. I'll watch, but I'm good when it comes to doing it. I've even done rodeo and gotten on the backs of bulls. Yet I still think this is crazy. It's like strapping yourself to a rocket ship.
Completely agree, you've got to have a little crazy in you to do this. Apparantly the riders wear breastplates made of kevlar just incase the engines explode under them
@@kabirconsiders Yeah. Having worn Kevlar in the past, it's not comfortable. Personally, if you're going to do this sport, I think you should be in a huge bubble of the stuff.
If you want to mess around with nitromethane engines, get a nitro remote control car. They are fun as hell, and the engines run on a mixture of nitromethane, methanol and oil. The best part is you can do it at home!
More like in the neighborhood of $125k-$150k. A stock Harley can run you $35k. ✌
Thanks for answering my question mate!
Great content keep it up 🇺🇸
Thanks mate :)
React to Nitro Circus. Bunch of friends who do extreme sports
I'll check it out!
@@kabirconsiders I think you’ll love it be like 5 guys doing crazy shit on dirt bikes skateboard pre much anything you can think of with wheels
In the world of drag racing if you can turn you're not going fast enough
That is at Rockingham Speedway in Rockingham N.C. I've been there on multiple occasions to see the Harley Nationals. Standing trackside by the fence is a true experience. You can feel the vibration through your body. I can only imagine what it must feel like for the rider.
Cant wait to feel it for myself!
Great video but most of these aren't Harleys. You can tell fairly easy by the sound which are Harleys an which are inline four cylinder (Japanese, Kaw, Suzuki etc.). Good show brother. PEACE!!!!!
$50k for the engine maybe. The whole bike is closer to $200k
These dragsters (boats,bikes,cars) have no cooling systems. They can only run for a short time before overheating and have to shut down, sometimes at the start line if it takes to long to line up. Either that or explode.
Definitely not $50,000 for example a new dirt late model is $75,000
Check out Motorcycle hill climbing
I've put it on my list
Can you react to sprintcarcrashes
I’ll put it on my list!
Nice video but of all the bikes I only saw 2 Harley Davidson's all the others were inline4's , just saying,
Ahhh I didn't know. My bad!
Top fuel Harley are fast
Extremely!
I don't know the answer but you can spend $40,000 on a tricked out stock Harley these days. Easily.
That’s a pretty penny!
Watch "Put 10000 horsepower in a small boat and this is what happens
Front tire not really making contact. Rear tire spinning like crazy....
Please react to sprint boat racing
I'll put it on my list!
As long as you are exploring motorsports,check out jet cars,wheel stand competition and demolition derby.are you convinced Americans are crazy yet
If you want to see something cool along similar lines to Baja, check out two things from here in Nevada, the Mint 400 desert race and the Best in the Desert: Las Vegas to Reno. I know a guy who did some drone work for the Mint 400, that is intense!
Nice, thanks so much Mathias I’m definitely looking for more of these types of races, and other races in general. I’ve put the two you mentioned on my list!
50k wouldn't even get you the full drive train.
I read they're around 70,000 and cost about 1000 dollars per second to run excluding driver and crew pay
That’s an expensive hobby for sure!
Bad guess in the price. Engine alone is around $75,000.00
Holy cow that’s a lot of moola!
Now imagine a top fuel dragster with 10 engines in their trailers at $125,000. Each.
50 to 100 thousand roughly
50000 there are production Harleys that cost that much full dressed
Hey react to the John force crash in Dallas.
I’ve put it on my list!
Please react to the World According to Briggs video on 7 Best Places in California and also his video on 10 Worst Housing Projects in the US.
I've put it on my list!
