nitro funny car vids

[topfuel]

I came across some cool videos on youtube, taken by one of our guests in Brainerd a couple weeks ago.
I'm the bald guy in the video.

That's a great video, especially the audio.

Anyone see John Force "lay down" so Ashley could win the US Nats yesterday? Said he broke a throttle cable? He always smokes the tires or has a failure of some sort when they face each other. I'm starting to like him less every year.

yeah I've had it up to here with JF and Ashley also.

And that idiot Robert Hight...he tries so hard to sound like John during his interviews.

I love to see the smaller teams kicking their butts, like Tim Wilkerson and Mike Edwards

John is is out there for sure

Awesome footage!

I attend the Supernationals at Raceway Park NJ every year and the experience is phenomenal. These cars have so much raw horsepower. I try to get near the team trailers during warmups just to get a whiff of nitro and burn my eyes out of their sockets.

On a side note, my wife's cousin worked for Snake Racing for 12 years as their "cylinder head man" and he's related to me the things that you guys do during a big event. It really is amazing what transpires between rounds.

Keep up the good work!

He is just giving his little girl a chance IMO. but i have seen that at norwalk a few times myself.
