    Feel the THUNDER of 10,000+ horsepower as I headed to the mountains of Bristol Tennessee to check out the ‪@nhra‬ THUNDER NATIONALS! There is no other racing experience like witnessing the nitro fueled action of Top Fuel and Funny Car racing. This is the place to be to watch NHRA racing at its best! Follow me into the pits to see up close these amazing feats of auto monstrosities, as well as see some of the all-time legends of the sport. Check it out with me, and feel the THUNDER Bristol style!

    Wow! Bristol dragway has changed so much since I first went there in the late seventys. Everything is different. Haven't been there since 2016 I think when I went to the Super Chevy Show.

    I thought for a moment it was going to be Thunder overhead as well as in the Valley🙄⛈ I guess with you there, it was muscles watching muscles💪💪💪 That is a lot of noise and horsepower indeed🐎 The sun going down over the mountains was beautiful🤩 Thanks for sharing this NHRA outing that you attended and glad you got some autographs and photo ops🐾🦊🐺

      It's such an exciting thing to see, and seeing the mountains in the background makes it that much cooler. Thanks for watching Foxy!

    Very cool MMM!! What a fun day you and the kids had. This brought back a memory of mine where many years ago I saw Shirley Cha Cha Muldowny race at a small drag strip in Union Grove Wi. At least I think that was her name. Anyway, she was one of the first women to race a dragster. I can imagine your ears ringing for quite awhile afterwards even with the ear plugs. Glad you had such a fun day! Even got autographs and experienced the pit! Thanks for sharing the beautiful surroundings as well MMM! Be safe.

      So guess what? We met Shirley Muldowney that day, and got an autographed poster! She's a class act and a legend (3x NHRA champion). I didn't shoot any film while meeting her, but let me take a picture of the poster and put it on Instagram. I wish I had filmed her, but just was kind of enjoying the moment with the kids and forgot. Thanks for watching, and glad you enjoyed!

      @@GaryAutwell I haven't reserved this year, but last 2 years, I reserved I believe a North Parking lot pass for roughly $10 in advanced. I may have had to call over the phone and order it. I do remember parking was odd. It was on Bristol's main website and not Ticketmaster.

    That is a lot of speed and a lot of noise. Those cars have got a lot of power. I would not want to be in one of them. My son has gone to several of these races.
