It is hard to get a real appreciation for just how fast a funny car really is. That truck is a legit 10 second vehicle and that is fast. In fact that truck is capable of out running all but the quickest street legal exotic cars in the quarter mile. To see the funny car take off like that and pass the truck by the traps is surreal.
stupidasso77 That is a 1000 foot track not a quarter mile or 1320 feet. 10 seconds in 1000ft is fast but nothing compared to 10 seconds in a quarter mile. :-)
no, that was a quarter mile. FC and TFD run the same passes now practically. 4.50 is a quarter mile time, they do mid to high 3's in the 1000 foot now.
@@35RSkyline that trophy truck is designed to take really hard hits and is built with just as much strength as the funny car, however the truck does have suspension and is not as long so my theory is it would just do a backflip. If the rest of the drive line can handle the torque of the engine
When most people dont understand what it REALLY takes to even start a Funny Car. Let alone, have any dragstrip let you take one down the line your first try. The amount of licensing and testing that goes on before you are allowed to is nutty. Let alone needing the balls to do so. Im sure Bryce didnt even want to, being he is an experienced driver, knowing the risks of a Funny Car..
@@nikkoLBSF nah the dude who invented it said it was funny how the body was lifted and all it actually was was an exoskeleton. You can search it up if you want
Wow! This is a really high quality video. Crazy fun. Not even a car guy but I saw this on reddit and it's sincerely and amazing video guys! That drag car is crazy fast, and the suspension on the off-road car is impressive. Two beasts built for different purposes. Also a note to Snap-on: this is advertising DONE RIGHT!
My father had a nitro funny car for years . I love the camera angles last 2 min . Better than most ESPN race day shots . You get more perspective of the sheer violence of it leaving the line . Cruz sits and waits, sounding like a huge lion breathing deep and heavy, in a trance , waiting to pounce his prey , and then does .
to watch that funny car blast past the trophy truck is truly amazing...i balked when he said nine thousand horsepower but to see it in action against a truck thats as fast as my Ducati...wow...phenomenal!
I have to disagree, something that has to be driven on a prepped flat drag track is not that impressive. The trophy truck has to be built to not only go fast but must be built to handle the abuse of off road destruction as well. But to each his own
@@kaseywatts8043 that first one was turned wayyy down. It's what they use for the starters learning to drive the dragsters. I have a friend that drives those, forget what they are called though
I've always wanted to get into one of those off-road super trucks. How much fun to go flying off a hill and land like you're floating to the ground!? All that suspension travel is just so cool. What a kick! I've done the straight line groove, but that dirt truck looks insanely fun.
Same here.. I've watched it over and over.... the launch of that nitro car at the end was so violent more so than I've seen lately.... Just BOOM!!! shit&get
Go watch a top fuel race in person. Its awesome on camera like this, but its a hell of a experience in person. The camera doesn't show you the sensation of the ground shaking and the air vibrating around you. On the close shots of the funnycar launching the shake of the camera is it literally getting buffeted by the shockwave of sound traveling through the air when Cruz dropped the hammer. They set off earthquake sensors every time they go to Ponoma from what I've heard. And to give you an idea of the speed, by the time the tail end of the funny car passed the tree it was moving at a little over 100 mph. They're flat out nuts. Look up the video "Acoustic power of a top fuel dragster" here on youtube to see just a taste of what I'm talking about.
+sstroh08 that is correct I go to pomona every year. fuckin love standing on the black box between lanes... also love the taste of the fuel in the air LOL
Its worth pointing out that truck is pretty damn fast too. A Corvette ZR1 bone stock would be beat by probably 2 or 3 car lengths by this truck if it was running what they dialed. It really shows the incredible power of top fuelers

A shot from the air would have made this even better than it already is. I've never seen anything that shows how fast top fuel funny cars or dragsters accelerate . This really puts things into prospective. This is the best video on Y tube.
Cruz Pedrigon, I have been watching your NHRA life for years. I know you probably won't read this, but I always thought you were a Class Act. "With the exception of 9000 HP". Cruz, you are a crack-up. That was way too funny very good.
great video, looks like a couple days of fun putting it together too.. on a tangent note, that rolling shot @10:48~10:50 was smooth, crisp and fantastic.. hands down my favorite angle/shot in the whole video..
My god that funny car is insane how quickly it caught up and beat that killer SCT. Having the SCT down the track with a 6 second jump gives some serious perspective on how quick that funny car actually goes down the track. That was fun to watch. Too bad I can't afford Snap-On tools.
Very cool stuff!!! Cruz is a class act and a very good friend!!! A fuel flopper and a pro 4 truck , talk about living the dream !! Maybe the next seat swap can be with the California Charger lol
In reading some of the comments, if you have never been to an NHRA pro-classes event (as versus the sportsman classes), I highly encourage you to attend at least one in your life. It will set new benchmarks by which you will measure things. The Top Fuel Dragster and Top Fuel Funny Cars will redefine and set the bar for your definition of "loud" - 10,000 unmuffled horsepower - per vehicle - has a way of doing that...And make no mistake, this IS rocket science. Titanium everything. Nitromethane fuel - chemically related to trinitrotoluene (also known as TNT) - that flows into the engine at the rate that water flows out of a garden hose - turned all the way on. A supercharger designed to feed an 18-wheeler's engine. Foot-and-a-half wide tires that can withstand the centrifugal forces associated with speeds over 300 miles per hour at the top end of the track.10,000HP and 300+MPH. No wonder nitro freaks aren't impressed with wimpy 900hp NASCAR engines (and 200 mph). Or Indy Car engines. Or F1 engines. Or off-road racing truck engines. Or...About a month ago I attended this year's event at Englishtown, NJ, after being away for several years. The sound is so deafening that, if you're anywhere near the starting line the instant they go to wide open throttle (WOT), you have to have your fingers in your ears. I forgot to do so - but only for that first pass - my ears imediately were ringing.There is simply no way that audio/video equipment can capture and reproduce anything like "the sound". To get remotely close to doing so, I suggest the following. Empty the house - no women, no children, no pets. Turn your audio bass all the way up. Turn your TV's volume all the way up - then turn your cable box's volume all the way up. Turn your subwoofer all the way up, then turn your surround sound system volume all the way up. Run the audio through your $10,000 stereo system and turn the power amp up to "11". You now have a very weak approximation of the godawful hell that is created when a supercharged, nitro-burning, 500-cubic inch NHRA fuel engine goes FWOT.
gary h TRUE NHRA Nitro & Top Fuel enthusiasts may not be impressed by an F1 engine's power output, but they have to appreciate the COMPLETE and utter efficiency that is the 2014+ F1 Hybrid K.E.R.S. Turbocharged V6 Power Units. I have been to almost every type of racing event except Top Fuel Dragster & F1 and I would WAD (Without A Doubt) chose F1 as my first choice based off of pure respect for the most technologically advanced racing class in current existence (except for Le Mans 24hr). Speed is great but everything is EVERYTHING !
that was amazing! I have to say ! I love how the truck just handle's the earth ! but you have to give it to cool car and speed for the drag car ! wow ! I think he had a sound barrier around him when he left the line ! I seen a big boom and he was gone! 4 sec ? daaaaaaaaaaaaaam
DRaceNut this is true. Space shuttles pull around 3.5-4 G’s at lift, these things pull 5 off the start and 6-7 when the throw the parachutes. They literally have pads built into their fire suits to keep the bucked from bruising them
The very last in car pass @ 10:55 in the funny car was interesting. You can clearly hear exactly how the lock up clutch is working. Goes direct drive at about 600 feet.
You're kidding me!!!!! I knew it, I just knew the jumps were gonna be brought up in convo hahaha go figure a flat straight shot driver getting jostled around left and right constantly jumping up landing down!!!!! SUPER FUN SCHTUFFFFF!!! IJELLY
Okay, this was seriously one of the best videos I've ever seen online. A total mix of my loves, top fuel/strip racing, offroad insanity...what MAN cannot like this video and still have working testicles? I'll tell you one thing. People see 3 second funny cars side by side and never really get a perspective of just how fast those bitches go with a person controlling it. You sure see it here and it's so friggin awesome. I've watched Cruz for twenty years and the old bastard is throwing down .8 reactions... anything less than .4 being a red light for guessing the tree versus reacting to it.(human eye to hand is .4 seconds at it's fastest so if you go faster, you're launching before it's technically possible to see a green to go) God it's gotta be tough as a racer to watch the rabbit go down the track while your greyhound sits, eating a gallon and a half of nitro methane per minute versus its race gobbling of 1 1/2 gallons of fuel PER SECOND. God the "gotta catch him, gotta catch him" feeling must be intense as hell.
Them baja trucks are cool I hang out with this one guy I forgot his name but his truck was all orange he look a little bit old too it was at yuma California sand dunes aka glamis 🤙😎
Couple of cool guys having a little fun on camera....very hard to take a professional at any sport and move him or her to another sport and expect them to perform at the same level....especially a very dangerous sport....
Years ago I saw a ‘fact’ saying that if a car were to be traveling at a constant 200mph and a top fuel car were to be sitting still but set off the instant the car passed, it would catch up and pass it before the end of the strip. This is as close to that scenario as you’d possibly get, it’s pretty cool to see it. Really shows you how insanely fast those cars really are
Man that funny car leaves the line HARD. I've done a fair amount of road racing but even in my wildest dreams I can't imagine what that would feel like.
Holy fuck that funny car is like the closest thing to a controlled explosion you can drive. Made a 10-second truck look like a snail.
That's what I was thinking. Looked like a rocket launch!

That was an easy pass too. Idk what time of the year this was, but funny cars were in the 3.90s at Vegas in 2015.
I would love to drive a trophy truck, those things are crazy. One of my major goals is to drive one. 10sec truck is also pretty damn fast.
I’m sure it’d be faster with less shit needed for off-road
damn that funny car gave the definition blowing doors off. Great vidoe!!
in the words of Monza he came around him like he was tied to a stump lol that was insane
That funny car at the end was like a space shuttle taking off!
Actually faster than the space shuttle.
This was actually really interesting considering all the car related gimmick stunts on UA-cam.
That was really cool. Thank you Cruz, Snap-on & Bryce

Man that funny car leaves the line HARD. I've done a fair amount of road racing but even in my wildest dreams I can't imagine what that would feel like.
Ken Clark I think I would pass out from the g forces
Drag race is one of the best pieces of automotive footage I have ever seen bar none1
I thought Bryce was going to get in the Funny car seat.
I enjoy the swapping of motor sports concept!
Of course they cut it right as its about to show the times
This little bit of power 700 hp🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
mad respect to both drivers the rpm of the truck must be at less 10.000 rpm but that finish was epic I'm now a fan of this show good work boys
Keep in mind folks, 1 Top Fuel Funny Car pass is roughly $50-$60K per 1/4 mile pass while the trophy truck is about $60-$80k per race
Man this guy has been completely media trained
Great video, it was really interesting to see some drivers do driving they're not used to.
Really surprised that this was allowed, awesome!
