@@gamingbiscuit2880It’s not nearly as loud as a top fueler unless you want a tank that can also by detected on ocean sonar.🤣 I’d still think it was pretty cool though.
I was Just going to say I'd have my breakfast ready n sitting on the porch taking this in like ah Saturday morning cartoon..but with.."smell-ah-vision"mmph..nitromethane in the morning❤🔥
So true. My first and only time was in early 80’s. Could not believe the power and sound of Top Fuel dragsters. The earth shook. My young heart stopped. I’ll never forget.
If you love Top Fuel then you love that sound especially when they put a little twist on those butterflies there's nothing like being that close to a Top Fuel dragster when they give it a couple of good throttles! You will feel it in your bones there's nothing else like it totally awesome
used to love going to the track early to see the first warmup. i'd sit back and watch the crown. loved all the tough guys with no ear protection running away falling over each other at that first cars blip
Got a neighbor with some race cars, not top fuel by any means, but some loud, well tuned cars. He pops em off from time to time, respectively. Wish he'd hit em more often honestly.
I have a 70+ year old neighbor that lives about a 1/4 mile down the road. He still builds, tunes and tests race engines in this little 1 bay garage. We live in the country and some evening I hear those things fire up and run.....love it.
That’s how it was when I grew up. Dad had a drag car and couple street hot rods. We lived in a smaller area and every time he would get any of the cars out a wash them or load them up all the neighbors would come outside because they knew he was going to stripe the road up in front of the house. 😂
My stepdad used to build and race his own rally cars when I was a child, he particularly liked Opel Mantas. His favourite one which he kept for many years was and one I got many rides on was an Opel Manta 400, engine swapped with a supercharged 2L Cosworth engine, straight piped, that redlined beyond 9K rpm. It was deafening and the backfire was like grenades exploding. The neighbours always went mental when he let the engine "breathe" on the driveway.
Karen to the cops: "Yes, hello 911? There's a very loud car in my neighborhood, like a top fuel dragster" Cops to Karen: "That's ridiculous Karen, there can't be a top fuel dragster in your neighborhood" Emanating from Karen's phone: WHACK!!! Cops to Karen: "Holy shizz, you DO have a top fuel dragster in your neighborhood. We'll be right over to watch!"
Karen to the cops: "Yes, hello 911? There's a very loud car in my neighborhood, like a top fuel dragster" Cops to Karen: "We'll be right there....with donuts!"
My best friend growing up, his dad raced top alcohol altered dragster, and that was a blast being in his garage helping around. And when he started it every time, was love at first sight.
We have to give it to the racers that lost their lives bringing these things to where they are now. Just think, everything that could go wrong WENT wrong at some point. The trial and error trying to make 10k HP hookup and stay stuck to the strip... Id imagine there where some horrible sights to lay eyes on back in the early days of top fuel.
@@JBeamGT3 Yep, Scott Kalitta comes to mind, where he died at Englishtown. I saw John Hagen's pro stock crash back in the 80's up in Brainerd. Always tragic events, but good things always came afterwards in safety. Jim Head, an engineer and top fuel racer has contributed a lot to the safety of these cars, as have many people.
Awesome!! Your neighbors must really love you lol. My uncle used to drag race. When he would start that vehicle up, stuff would fall off the shelves for and you could feel that power drilling through your chest.
@@jaredrrrr5074 it wouldn’t be fun I know. My cousin ran modified class here in Sydney and lived 500m away and I clearly heard every start up and when I did I bolted to his place.
They’re definitely not in a HOA, you would have six board members at your house before you could get out of your car if you rev’d up a Camry more than once. Here, I’d save a whack or two for when they got close, you might as well get your $$ worth.
I had a championship top fuel drag boat next to me in Reno Nevada. The guy rolled it out and started it in the middle of the business day. Wow! I think it was about an eight point eight solid aluminum Donovan running on a very high percentage of nitro.
@@BadAIChats never saw the tow vehicle but I know the owner was from Los Angeles and was in the concrete business. This was a new boat and he won top fuel national championship in previous year.
I had a neighbor that had a drag boat engine, 454 with zoomies . He started the engine up on a stand in his home garage once. It had one of those popcorn spray on ceilings. He blew 99% of the popcorn off the ceiling on the first start up. I thought it was awesome but I don’t think he liked it as much as.
Nice job! Sounds great and reminds me of my 1970's childhood with a blown 327 methanol hydroplane in the garage. Nowadays I try and have somebody holding a fire extinguisher during fireups. I don't always but it's handy and I try too. I hope you have some nice runs this spring! USA!
Easily the most terrifying and wonderful thing to do in life is to stand next to a cackling-up top fuel dragster and get that tear gas and molecule shaking ride. 😮
In 1963 my best neighborhood friend's dad had a AA/FA with a little '32 open top coup body that he would fire up and test in the street. Team name was Walker and Evans from Santa Ana, CA.
Uh-Huh... No visible analytical electronics, that non-usual shutdown (bro caught the revs, brought them back up..yeah, had me thinking... Oh, and the whole "in the street" vibe 😉 oh well not quite the same when tuning my 50 year old 1.6litre Chevy luv somehow
Elderly neighbors: "Those damn kids finally figured out how to build a top fuel dragster in their driveway! The go carts were bad enough. I'm DEFINITELY callin' the cops this time"....🤬
This is the kind of neighbor people either love with all their heart, or hate with a passion, nothing in between. Either way, you have to appreciate the matching shirts for the start up.
He must have really tolerant neighbors, or maybe they're all deaf. Years ago I used to race shifter karts, and I would occasionally take a hot lap around the neighborhood. My neighbors all liked me so there was never a problem.
I had neighbors like this. I grew up down the road from Cha Cha Muldowney. My uncle was really good friend Konnie Colette . Everyone of our neighbors ran oval track cars and when I finally got enough knowledge I worked on the pit crews.
besides watching two of these go down track my greatest thrill whenever I went to a top fuel meet was standing 7 - 10 feet away from one of these hemis when they were going thru the checks before a run and they would bump the throttle. Theres nothing like it in the world outside of The Lord Himself Youd think I was gonna get to take it down track the way I actted The energy that comes off of one of these literally pushes you back. If youre not prepared it could knock you off your feet ! Think im kiddin, go see for yourself when they come to a track near you.
Looks like the Top fueler previously sponsored by Strut Masters ? Not sure who owned and or drove it?? Anyhow, nice to see it's alive and well. Hope to see you all at an NHRA event soon! ❤👊
Are you allowed to make the air deflector barge boards into wing-cross-section pieces? They may not add much downforce, but they sure would reduce drag.
“I got a couple 12’s in my trunk that’ll rattle my neighbors windows”. That’s cute, I have an engine that registers on the Richter scale when I run it.
That's only one of the most badass things I have ever seen. As someone who has attended the NHRA Northwest Nationals ever since 2005 I always try and be back in the pits between rounds to experience a top fuel or funny car warm-up.
By in large the absolute BEST sound from a non-human being EVER!!! Scott I noticed though you didn't turn the fuel pumps all the way to Full when she let the clutch out. I don't suppose its a lean condition when you open the throttle blades, I just usually see most teams release the clutch, hold the brake and fatten the fuel whether they blip the throttle or just let it idle while seating the clutches. I'd love to be your neighbor or in your vicinity.
Hey there. The car is equipped with an "All Valve" the fuel lever is pulled all the way on at the startup and left there till shutdown. Not all fuel cars have it, and it is always a good habit to pull it right before Stage to make absolutely sure fuel is full on before the run (it can move during burnout and backup)
And my HOA complained when I ran my 383 powered 67 Camaro bracket car on Saturdays when I loaded up! I like how they ran a TF car in a neighborhood while somebody’s granny casually drives by. Classic.
My brother had a 60's model Nova with a 350 and dual Holly's carburetors on it. When he started it up to work on it, our cousin who lived 2 or three miles away could hear it. We'd see him in the convenience store and he tell my brother "well I heard you start your car this morning". Nothing like a top fueler but still pretty loud. LOL
You have to have kool neighbors to do that. We had a Super Street '69 Camaro that ran 9s. And we used to test on our neighborhood street..those were the days 😂

Like keyless ignition that motor won't run unless you got your team shirts on. Little know fact.. kinda 👍😎
Throttle whack is best experienced when you're not expecting it!😂😂😂
I honestly tip my hat to the pioneers of these top fuel dragsters. The 1st ones to build & race them. That would take some kind of next level courage.
