I'll never understand why people want to ruin, what would otherwise be a great video, with unwanted music? We would rather hear the sounds of the motors, screeching tires, and natural happenings. If we want to hear music, we can find it all over the internet.
The old diggers likely were on nitro old A fuel cars. They don't run a lot of volume, so seldom see much from the exhaust during the day. Not Top Fuel for sure though.
Wouldn't it be sweet to be there and hear those Nostalgia TF cars cruize. Yer right JoeC, they're not running on nitro on the street. For thoe who did not notice, these cars have no cooling system and can't run far. Nitro explosions in their Hemi's woukd have them overheated before they made a block down the street. We applaud those owners who were OK with spending the big money it costs them to share their wonderful race cars with the folks who love them.
From :35 - 1:35 those ARE Top Fuel dragsters from the 1960's. For this event they were probably running on alcohol so the engines wouldn't overheat. Or may a very small percentage so people could smell the nitro.
When those "top fuel" dragsters were actually racing, they were classified as AA/FD - AA Fuel Dragster. The phrase "Top Fuel" was not in use then. Are these cars running on Nitro or Alcohol? Nitro produces a popcorn popping sound in the exhaust. Only one of the AA/FD cars has an exhaust sound anywhere close to that. While, as some commenters claim, nitro burns cooler than alcohol, it costs a ton more per gallon. I would say these AA/FD cars are running alcohol with just a touch of nitro.
Lots of neat cars. But since everyone is only interested in the technical error in the title...just delete the video and show a blue screen only. Then they'll really have something to complain about. This must be the first incorrect title.
PolarCub64 -- Your comments to posters on this page are deplorable. You say that these top fuel dragsters are running on alcohol to keep the engine cool, and these top fuel cars could not cruise on nitromethane, or they would burn up the motor. And then you tell the posters here, that they are negative and ignorant, when in fact it is you who are ignorant. An engine on nitro will run twice as cool as an engine on alcohol, due to the high latent heat vaporization of nitro. The high fuel flow volume of a nitro burning motor, also adds to the cooling of the motor. Did you personally test the fuel in these cars ? So, how do you know they were running alcohol ? Sir, you owe everyone here an apology.
I'm sure some of these cars have run nitro. They might have been burning ethanol instead as not to overheat. Top fuel or nitro burning class cars are known for the crackle. Ethanol burns much smoother.
Great cars and engines sounds - music competes with purity of hearing a fuel motor. It amazes me people think they need to place music with engine sounds - just stupid.
come - On Man ,I allways wannted to idle my A gas dragster down our main drag . It was and Still is my sexual Fanatcy to do that and I watching these guys do just that with nitro methane for me it dont get any Badder !!! right on and ALLMOST jelous - ha
aww come on, ive seen WAY bigger exhaust flames. Search car exhaust flamethrower. theres one that fires about 5+ metres, on an upward angle. If the environment minister saw that shit, he would shit on his own face!
Yes you should keep on moving before you see something that scares the shit out of you wouldn't want you to have nightmares about going too fast just go home were it's safe Chevy boy
I'll never understand why they always have shitty 50's bands at these things...most if the sickest hot rods were from the 60's and 70's anyway. I hate going to cruise nights and having to deal with a bunch of middle aged ass hats playing crappy doo wop.
Sorry to correct your misinformation --- Nitromethane has a high lantent heat vaporization, and with the high fuel flow used with nitro motors, these combined factors means nitromethane actually will cool an engine faster than alcohol. Temps on nitro are about half of an alcohol fueled motor.
i could watch these cars cruise down that one stretch of road all day long.
WOW, the Ranchero conversion on that yellow and white Ford was nicely done!
GreenJeep - that is a mighty fine "Ranchero"- beautifully done.
Goosebumps when I saw that Color Me Gone Mopar. Thanks for the video.
I don't like cold weather, But this Mi town ROCKS! I may have to move there
Those are Nostalgia TF Dragsters and yes they are running on Nitro.
Frankenmuth MI. The festival capital of America. It seemed that they had some type of festival every weekend back when I lived in Michigan.
The red one at 1:30 is definitely running on nitro, very distinct sound. I would say it was more than just a small percentage too.
right, the rest were just mild nitro
autofest is this weekend in Frankenmuth MI Sept 9-10-11-2016
Only the coolest parade EVER!! The Shriners could increase their donations 10 fold if they used cars like this instead of those little go carts.
my Dad is a Shrinner . and Aman to ya bro
the mopar prostreets are the best out of all! Mopar R Nocar!
Sweet thats me in my car backing in to the spot at 2:51. I can't wait for the next autofest
Two Lane Blacktop is pretty bad ass movie
Love the 1st car 70 Coronet!!) That's nice!!) what was the music @ 2:15??
Awesome footage my friend.Do you perhaps have some more of this event handy.....we would all love to see it.Thanks so much for sharing....GB jimbo
Do they still do this & when? I've lived in Traverse City for 38years and didn't know they had this dang it!
That old yellow 'cuda,would match the paintjob on my old '55 pan chopper nicely!!
How did the rails go without a radiator...🤷🏾♂️
That yellow '68 Cuda is bad to the bone!
Now that is far beyond cool, Big Thanks!

Some of these nostalgias could be top fuel, half pumps.
I didn't see any top fuel dragsters. I saw some top alcohol nostalgia dragsters.
How do you distinguish between an alcohol dragster and a nitro dragster ? Just curious about your facts backing up this statement.
You can see many differences. You can't see the nitro fumes (or even header flames in the case of the nostalgias) and the sound is more like an alky
The old diggers likely were on nitro old A fuel cars. They don't run a lot of volume, so seldom see much from the exhaust during the day. Not Top Fuel for sure though.
@@jameshelm2561 no facts to back the talk
Yeah and you're really Kate beckensaile
Frankenmuth Michigan
DETROIT!!!!
There are NO top fuel dragsters in this video. Not one ! ! !
I see plenty of top fuel dragsters from the 60's
+TITANX sands there not top fuel dragsters
+TITANX sands no you don't. Apparently you don't know what "TOP FUEL" means.
there are some nostalgia top fuels in here
Yes, all the way back into the mid 70s front engine AA/FDs were the norm. No 10,000 HP cars back then.
Where’s the top fuel dragsters?
every single one of those cudas was amazing
That color me gone was cool!
yeah always liked that car..have some articles in my old hotrod magazines with it..roger lindamood...glory days
+mothertree
That's right. I remember it.
Considered street cars now ?
Love the yellow cuda
that looks like it was blast
WHAT A GREAT PLACE TO BE!!!!!!
0:37 stay cool how by alcohol that long?
Unglaublisch! I am impressed with that early Cadillac, but the engine looks ridiculous.

these cars are about 40/40/5/5 nitro to ethanol to methanol to water
@tewkusa
lol it says 2009 in the discription
)
those were the days!..
I wonder what happened to USA?...so changed, hardly see any hot rods anymore
Love that fuel coupe!
why is there music playing over this - the engines are music enough
Aren't those pro stock or mod
Now that's my kind of city!!
Cool show where is this at?
carnut76 it is the first weekend after Labor Day in Frankenmuth Mi
totally awsome i wish we can do that in so cal, look at the huffer on that cad 1:40.
love the slingshot dragsters
Those Dragsters have no radiators! they don't have long till they overheat.
Lots of neat cars. But since everyone is only interested in the technical error in the title...just delete the video and show a blue screen only. Then they'll really have something to complain about. This must be the first incorrect title.
0:45 leave a comment what you think of the car
ya gotta love em nitromethane's ^^

Nitro has a distinct sound and yes that's alcohol for the people who don't know it's actually methanol
james helm , they're only going to f****** short distance and if percentages of nitro are quite low I'm sure
god bless america...
Looks fun until the cops overrun the event liked they did at the St Ignace car show!
Oooold school top fuel, not running on nitro tho
Not many AA/FD there!
I'm sure some of these cars have run nitro. They might have been burning ethanol instead as not to overheat. Top fuel or nitro burning class cars are known for the crackle. Ethanol burns much smoother.
Idid not see any A body barracudas
CDP kawaii lol better watch video again there were a couple of hemi super stock barracudas
I can only imagine what some of the Germans were thinking when the fuelers were running down the road. What kind of fuckery is this!
thats some Funny shit
WOW WISH I WAS BORN IN THE 50s
Great cars and engines sounds - music competes with purity of hearing a fuel motor. It amazes me people think they need to place music with engine sounds - just stupid.
12 people in the world don't know what fun IS
fourfortyroadrunner Fuck them. We're here a good time, not a long time.
@TwoLaneBlacktopProd
Those arent top fuel....
they are just front engine... 1st of all they dont have a strong enough rail to run top fuel...
TOO COOL!!
wow i wonder if Hans and Franz were there to PUMP YOU UP
I didn’t know that top fuel drag eaters were front engine. Top fuel is rear engine
Chuck Rice original top fuelers were front engined until big daddy started making his rear engined and then all of them switched over.
kevin nolan Most definitely, Don Garlett’s was the first to make the switch along with Kenny Bernstein
@@kevinpatrick8788 After the clutch exploded and blew half his foot off.
hemis rock
DJ sounds like Chech from chech and chiong... haha
this is small town america at its best. I wish my city would do this
I see that guy ever were "she boom "
72 drive Prius’s
Libtard assholes
already got 1
Not one Top Fuel car.... Seen a couple that MAY be running Top Alcohol ... But Definitely nothing running Nitro Methane
oh shit fire from the pipe awsome wtf !!!!!
come - On Man ,I allways wannted to idle my A gas dragster down our main drag . It was and Still is my sexual Fanatcy to do that and I watching these guys do just that with nitro methane for me it dont get any Badder !!! right on and ALLMOST jelous - ha
those arnt top fuel dragsters bro. theyre just dragsters.
um...at the 3:00 mark... That's funny.
NOW THAT IS THE SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOO HOOOOO
Not one fuel car because they would only last 20 seconds before overheating and exploding.
Nice!
Needed more burnouts...
I thought that was totally cool
aww come on, ive seen WAY bigger exhaust flames. Search car exhaust flamethrower. theres one that fires about 5+ metres, on an upward angle. If the environment minister saw that shit, he would shit on his own face!
just part of some MOPAR car show, move along nothing to see here!!
Yes you should keep on moving before you see something that scares the shit out of you wouldn't want you to have nightmares about going too fast just go home were it's safe Chevy boy
@@travisparadis2465 wasn't anything fast in that bunch of dogs, er dodges
Impossible to use nitro on the street.
When they moved the engine behind the drivers (I understand it was for safety) they stopped being dragsters. Now, they're just hopped-up VWs.
ZERO "top fuel". Great gassers however. :)
such a US
Lol there not even top feulers
I'll never understand why they always have shitty 50's bands at these things...most if the sickest hot rods were from the 60's and 70's anyway. I hate going to cruise nights and having to deal with a bunch of middle aged ass hats playing crappy doo wop.
orion681 car enthusiasts parade lolololol
No where near top fuels but ok
Johndeere 100 --- Maybe top fuel from 1960 except none these guys had nitro methane
Johndeere 100
there are some 1960's top fuel dragsters
they are running on alcohol to keep cool .
Sorry to correct your misinformation --- Nitromethane has a high lantent heat vaporization, and with the high fuel flow used with nitro motors, these combined factors means nitromethane actually will cool an engine faster than alcohol. Temps on nitro are about half of an alcohol fueled motor.
Wow. Daily driver dragsters lol
to bad there was no cop car dragsters
Lost interest ....mopar.
Go home and stay away from the fast cars
Top fuel......lol
3:00 fap fap fap
BORING LIKE HELL
