My next door neighbor Bruce Wright had a alcohol rail sand dragster called X rated then his Jeepzilla based on a funnycar front engine style. Those days were one of the best memories of my child hood. I have so much respect for the Men and Women in the sand dragster community, the respect and sportsmanship is incredible. God Bless you all!
In the 70s it was different. My step dad was the quickest man on sand. Top fuel had 4 tires on the back and the motor was 80% nitro. This kind of racing scared me. Only because of the one accident in 77.
Me too. We ran low 3 sec passes in 300 feet back in the late 80's with blown injected small block chevy. And we did add nitro to the alcohol. But I remember a guy with a big block chevy blown dragster went into the 2 second range. I also saw a top fuel funny car bolt on a set of duel scoopers on his car and went 1.9 in the 100 yard dash, it was amazing.
These guys are running alcohol. The record for Top Alcohol Dragster is a 2.369. The fastest man on sand is Dennis Rieck with a 2.208 in his Top Fuel Dragster.
WTF was st 2:55 sweet lord!
Andy Boily that was the planet sand top fuel trike. cool huh. search his vids, crazy shit

Doin' it in the dirt adds another element to an already insane sport! Keep the dirt flying high & we'll keep coming back for more!
Nothing sweeter, than than tires being meater. 😊👍
not top fuel, these are top alkys
I thought top alcohol was the same engine minus the blower?
@@74superglide no
Different for asphalt I guess.
Top fuel is a nitro/alky mix with a blower, top alky can be either blower with alky or n/a with a nitro/alky mix
Will you dumbasses please stop saying "alky"? You sound like a bunch of wannabes
Bruce wright out of Delaware with the x rated rail what a hot rod in the 80s
Which would win to the moon? The rocket or the first drag toy good lord.
great stuff
I'm just here for the burnouts...

There are a couple dual paddle cars left, most tracks won't let them run as far as I know
where are the 4 paddle tires on a dragster???
The cars are blown alcohol not top fuel. The only thing on nitro was the bike at 2:55.
Do they ever do a burn out?
these cars sound like a god yelling
Nothing like having only a knee high single strand of guard rail between the cars and dead spectators. What could possibly go wrong?
505197 safety first
So.
Go wrong....just more stupidity
Wow the first one had a true WHIPPLE on it💪🏼 old school art is a smart guy

First time I have ever seen a parachute pulled on dirt
2 second race. Very interesting.
10/10 for the cameraman
Where is this?
That’s pretty hard core guys / gals. Woo!
These are all Top Alcohol not one Top Fueler was in this video
Didn't see any top fuel cars. Those were alcohol dragsters.
Would love to see the E.T's after the passes

That doesn't sound like Topfuel.
Asphalt is for racing. Dirt is for growing taters.
Why do they call them sand drags if it's on dirt ?
Them r bad ass cars
Dirt king needs to adjust his wheelie bar
Wheelies look cool but they are hard on chassis

Ракета на колёсах!!!
Waist of hp

Definitely NOT top fuel they are alcohol burning motors not nitro fuel burning motors. That said still awesome seeing those dirt rooster tails
Way to short
This isn't a spectator friendly kind of racing what with all the dam gravel coming at you every run
Don't go to see. If you are scared....say you're scared
The 1/8 mile is great...not!
Dirk Diggler 300’ equals a 1/8 mile ? Not. Sorry Dick
Dixie Dirt draggers

Those aren't fuel cars
Alkys...not top fuel.
Except the bike , they are all top alcohol rigs .
A waste of H.P.
