Attended my first Top Fuel Drags and man do those cars go. TV just dosent do it justice!

I've been to a few NASCAR races but this is way better!

Every time the cars hit the gas you feel the air shake inside your lungs!

I got some sweet pictures and quick video shots but the website wont let me upload the videos.

Video never compares to real life. Only top fuel cars look fast on TV. What did they get you for at that event, $60?

Actually I worked the event volantary so I guess I came out above! A few bucks cash and some good times plus the VIP treatment I got was pretty cool!

Besides the funny car pics with the flame out the exhaust, this is a few good pics of two pro stocks taking off...

we went to see the monster truck jam a few weekends ago (same engines) those things are nuts, driver just taps the gas and the thing is way high in the air...
