    A drag race is an acceleration contest, on a track, or dragstrip, that begins from a standing start between two vehicles over a measured distance. Drag races are a series of such two-vehicle, tournament-style eliminations. They drift, burnout, speed, in nhra or ihra, with a lot of horsepower. #racing #dragracing #funnycars

    Ahhh! The smell of nitro methane on a cool spring night at the track. The sounds keep playing over and over in my brain. What a sight it was at night to see all eight candles burning on a 3000 h.p. elephant motor!

    July 2018 and I found this for the first time. I love my nhra funny car races, but they need to go back to these body styles. The sound is amazing. The look of the cars are so bad ass. Can’t beat the look of the old muscle cars with funny car underneath.

      Drag Strip Riot yes I should have said that. Full on 1/4 mile how it should be at its best. Takes real bad ass drivers and tuners to take it on. Nhra should really think about bringing back 320 feet. Great video by the way. I should have mentioned that to begin with.

    • @DragStripRiot
      @DragStripRiot  6 років тому

      It would be great if NHRA did, but after a decade now of 1,000' racing for the nitro classes I just don't see that ever happening again. For now, we'll have to enjoy whatever 1/4 mile nitro racing we can find at IHRA sanctioned tracks and independently run events. Thanks again!

    What's the little hatch or whatever it is on the top of the cars for?

    • @DragStripRiot
      @DragStripRiot  5 років тому

      The hatch above enables the drivers to exit the car without the body up after a run or in the event of an incident. They also pop it open to air out burnout smoke as well.

      Karen they're usually for safety used heavily here and in the NASCAR when a car loses control that will vent the air through it and hopefully proven I guess to keep the car on the ground it's all about the safety hun... And by the way great video ❤️

    New funny cars may be faster, but they don't have the same character. They lack the soul of the classic cars. You could at least tell what the car was trying to be. That's why my attention has been diverted to nostalgia and no prep.

      @J__C__ 6 років тому

      Go look at S&W race cars website. They have one of each and drawings of the chassis to compare. They're not the same. So it's not basically anything. Each one is it's own creation.

    • @J__C__
      @J__C__ 6 років тому

      If I wanted to play the "it's basically just a..." game, we could say it's basically just a front engine dragster with the front chopped down and a body put on. It's really not, but hey, it's close enough. Right?

      Drag Strip Riot z Thanks for the reply. I love 1/4 mile racing. Use to frequent the NHRA races in El Paso back in Kalitta's, Prudhome (sp?), Daddy Don Garlits, Shirley Muldowney many others day. At SIR outside of Puyallup, Wa, I saw Gene Snow, Karamisines and the guy who's flywheel came undone one time and either killed him or amputated him. That accident was the one that made all rails rear engined.

    • @DragStripRiot
      @DragStripRiot  6 років тому

      Wow, a lot of history right there. Those were the glory years, for sure. We love 1/4 mile racing, too, and are going to try and make as many events that feature full 1/4 as we can. They seem to be diminishing in popularity to the 1/8 mile scene, and that's a sad deal. Thank you for watching. Cheers!

      Unfortunately most nostalgia drags don't attract the big crowds (however some annual events get huge turnouts). I think its mostly due to major sponsorship and just getting the word out.

    • @DragStripRiot
      @DragStripRiot  6 років тому

      The crowd was much better during the day into the first session. However, once the temps began to plummet many folks decided to leave early. A shame they didn't stick around for this and Lagana's run.

    • @DragStripRiot
      @DragStripRiot  6 років тому +2

      Most likely an Outlaw Pro Mod car running that time. Nitro nostalgia funny cars are currently limited to fuel pump size of 21 GPM.

I love seeing the old cars running it makes us appreciate how far we've come. It's not that long ago top fuel dragsters ran the first 300mph pass in the 1/4. Soon Pro mods will be running those speeds.
