    Notice how you can see the lettering on the tire at the individual stop segments, then, even the lettering at the frozen intervals is blurred as the dragster really pours it on.....sweet.

    It's different now. In the 70's the blowers were 6-71 running 30% over-drive. The noise from the blower at half-track was awesome. You had a lot of blower explosions, and that was before you had breakable studs and the tie-downs on them. Fire wasn't as big a problem.

    Today you have the whole engine go. The problem is these engines are not what they seem. They are fed fuel, timing, and clutch at a specific rate, and if anything breaks it is abnormal in less than a second.

    You'll see the flame disappear from the exhaust, and then bam.

    Here's an article from 2006:
