It sucks when you see incredible machines with equally incredible drivers and amazing teams giving an event the very best they have ever done in their LIFE, with a world record being shattered.... and you look out into the grand stands and see 5 people? Come on people.... come out to these events and support this!
collosus simpson I don't understand that either. I went to the NHRA Maple Grove nationals on Oct 2nd and it was packed! I'd bet at least 20k to 30k people were there. Even when I used to go to little Cecil County dragway for grudge night, it was usually crowded. Both of those tracks are out in the sticks too!
Zenme Yangzi Its the first sport that was ever developed by early humans! The ancient Greeks had drag racing in the original Olympic games on mount Olympus.....
That was one of the best comments I’ve read in a while. Since we are on the subject you say she is a fast blower umm 🤔 and EX right? Ya hook a homie up. That’s my attempt at a funny comment oh well.
With those Brad Anderson Enterprise heads sitting on top of that motor similar to those used in those nitro funny cars, no wonder that those low 5-second passes are possible!
Yeah this is such a great video, I don't think there's really anybody in promod that doesn't know of this final round! Speaking of, it was really really good to see Frankie out running his car at the Midwest promod Series race last weekend up in Tulsa, really enjoyed seeing him out racing! I know him and his brother help tune other promod but yeah, great to see him with his car out running a race :-) :-)
***** Why do you need to insult? Please, man, if you wanna talk about cars and mechanics I expect you to use your knowledge...I don't need to read anything about "how a turbo is better than a belt-driven compressor...blah blah top end, blah blah what if they...". First of all, I will start saying that Turbos are more efficient, even if they have a parasitic loss, it's minimal. They're way easier to work with, and therefore, it's easier to make more power from a T car than SC one. On the other hand, when talking about power, RAW power, a mechanical compressor SHOULD be able to make more power, torque and response...but why is that? Because the force of an engine will always be more powerful than the force the exhaust gases can make: that means that a SC has more power to use. A Top Fuel turbo could be possible, but it will never be as powerful as a blown one: solid nitromethane and those incredible temps would melt the turbine like the butter you have in your refrigerator. Nowadays TF's are making 10000-12000 hp, there's no turbo engine, EVER, that could make/withstand those amounts of power. And, now I would like to ask you, why has anyone ever made a 4 second run in a turbo car? Nuff said. Now, about this actual race, as you see they're both pretty equal, BUT, I would like to point out some things: 1)the winner (fairly won) has 2 turbos, the blown car has only one blower. 2)the blown car was making a 105% overdrive, the maximum permitted is 128% (I think). 3) the big intake doesn't help with aerodynamic efficiency. 4) the only way to find out which one is faster is by deleting all the restrictions and limiters...then we'll see who's the real winner. Oh, just to finish, did you know that the BRM 1.5 liter supercharged engine was able to make 1000 hp, back in the 50's...just saying.
Have to wrap it in a blanket because Supercharger's like to backfire and explode when a 4,000hp engine is being peddled down the track. Meaning, constant on-and-off the gas to try and regain grip. That makes high-power engines with superchargers blow up. When the supercharger blows up, the entire blower can go flying and kill someone, or bits of shrapnel can go flying and kill someone. It's like having a hand grenade strapped too the top of your engine.
The Best just love the hardware every car a work of art craftsmanship technical expertise very best good sportsmanship without a doubt they appreciate each other for there skill technical know-how... I sure miss it
My favourite cars are promods wen you are at the track and the pro mods fire up every body runs to the stands to watch they remind me of the like funny cars in the 70 s ther absolutely my favourite car to watch at a track so come on folks and fill them grandstand it’s not like nascar you can get up close get autographs the drivers will talk to you it’s always been my favourite sport I’ve run a few cars down the track it’s a blast but it’s fun watching you can feel the cars in your body they are so powerful so get to your local track and support these guys so they can get paid for the best show on earth that’s my opinion once you go you will love it every body is friendly and you will have a lot of fun
+Jeff Curran that's the name of the game "traction" it doesn't matter how much power you're makin if you aint puttin it to the ground you aint winning!
I just got a 2019 Kia forte.... wanna race ?????All jokes aside..... Seriously impressive though fellows. Nothing beats a blown big ass block and the smell of alcohol burning.
Maximus gameplay He does NOT run nitro. It's illegal. And he was only running 105% overdrive on the blower from what I heard. Up to 128% overdrive is legal, so there is more left in it.

DITTO...SUCKS REALLY!
yea
no it isn't i have a car you wrong
sad that only 4 people in the stands saw this incredible race.
More people @ TNT nites
You know you have a badass car when the fuel tank capacity and tire wear are measured in SECONDS.
1320 feet is the ONLY REAL racing thanks for posting this incredible video
i'm relieved. when i saw world's fastest blower i thought i was going to see a video of my ex
Underrated
robert zosa - Too Cool Man !!! 😷👍
That was one of the best comments I’ve read in a while. Since we are on the subject you say she is a fast blower umm 🤔 and EX right? Ya hook a homie up.
That’s my attempt at a funny comment oh well.
You're lucky you even got any... I got NONE. She didn't "believe in that".... 🙄
Yea, we weren't married for very long.
What's even more impressive is that he was getting that much grip at "skate way" park
The best Drag Race I've ever seen in my entire life
Damn what a great final race ! That turbo was working on the top end at over 272.00 MPH !
that was a great race, congrats on going 5.47@263...but did anybody else notice the other car went 5.46@272...
Yeah lol but the other car was a turbo car
yes think was a Turbo Car
With those Brad Anderson Enterprise heads sitting on top of that motor similar to those used in those nitro funny cars, no wonder that those low 5-second passes are possible!
Not too shabby for a single plug Hemi. A 1.5-second difference, great ET's on both cars, and one hell of a close race!
Nice job guys.

5:34 damn what a race that was
One of the most absolutely beautiful drag cars ive ever seen. Amazing ride my friends.
Thank you Urbanhillbilly hats off to you guys for great video and bringing it to the masses.
What a blown land rocket to keep straight as an arrow down the 1/4 mile! A mind-bender.
Awesome video, thank you.
Excellent Video!
I fill my bottle at frankies shop. Cool dude
Real engines aren't bottle babies
Frankie is my dad
Cool dad!
Scottie Taylor
did he went to kuwait
Frankie Taylor is a awesome driver fast car your a lucky kid would have loved to grow up around drag cars
Scottie Taylor ll)l

I love this team they don't need the big fancy trailers and shit to go break records
The most epic pro mod run in history that nobody knows about
Everyone in promod heard this
Good job Frankie this man can drive
Yes , cooler tempatures, yes , beat his own record ,. Totally awesome race , great job.
I live in the same neighborhood as him in Texas me and his son are like brothers
Where in Texas I’m in Sherman
@@jamesfarmer3759 Dickinson
Ok... 🤷🏻
much respect for these cars the turbo car was fast that blower car is awesome these are big boys toys for sure.
Nice way to make that beast run wild
Congrats seriously
LoL The tiny little overdrive pulley on the blower cracks me up.
haha, that may be the smallest I've ever seen
Now that , my friends is " Stupid Fast ".
He said 5.55 with and O. The O is for oh my that's insane stupid fast and getting faster. You guys driver-team all of you rock stupid fast and hard.
he stole the fucking show with 5.46 @ 272mph
***** When its a supercharger... Shoutout to all the idiots
The car in this video is supercharged
LMAO you guys are funny and the two of you are saying the same person in different ways.
***** slower? Go and tell that to the Top Fuel dragsters...
***** Why do you need to insult? Please, man, if you wanna talk about cars and mechanics I expect you to use your knowledge...I don't need to read anything about "how a turbo is better than a belt-driven compressor...blah blah top end, blah blah what if they...".

i love the way that those cars blow clouds of exhaust 40 feet up in the air, right before the race
Jesus Christ man
I remember watching him race at kennedale in Texas, before he went big... he's always been that fast! #madman
Can't wait 'til Leroy is posting those kind of numbers. You know it's only a matter of time.
those supercharger seems like can swallow a bird
Sure, but it would DEFINITELY gag, and puke it's guts out
How's your hearing bill ..ITS OKAY IVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR YEARRSS!!
Other than stevie this is the baddest blower man on the planet 💯💯💯
MY PAPA AND HIM BUILDS RACE CARS TOGETHER!!!!!!! Saw him last weekend
Crazy how even the burn out was arrow straight. That car is dialed
HEY That's RICH MATTHEWS walking in back after that first pass. HEY RICH ! ! !
this car ran down Tulsa Race Way park be for. the name of the car couldn't fit better. its STUPID FAST!!!
Jeffrey Adams
Hell of a drag race. Would have liked to see a finish line picture, that had to be close.
you know your pushin some beewwsstt when you have to wrap your blower in a Kevlar blanket.
It's a NHRA rule.

6:09 orange hat left hangin" haha...
272mph that's injected nitro speeds.. Amazing job to both teams.
holy mother of motors!
Way to go Frankie!
What is that sound after he passes the finish line
Say goodbye to your hearing. No hearing protection equals major hearing loss. Just crazy.
at least they can support a smile when they get smoked!.....good sportsmanship
The Best just love the hardware every car a work of art craftsmanship technical expertise very best good sportsmanship without a doubt they appreciate each other for there skill technical know-how... I sure miss it
karl knudson He hardly "got smoked"
FixItStupid ju
Listen to that golf cart though. Sounds tuff
I got a question to answer, most drag cars have that crazy choppy cap, hows it this car chop so fast?
This car is probably running 8,000hp or something like that and the aerodynamics of those cars are very good that's why.
@@brockmaine2743 correction they Are both making around 4 or 5 thousand horsepower
You can't mess with 'em.
That thing is fuckin terrifying
Dude is sick
"I love the smell of burning rubber in the morning............"
You can see the very moment when the yellow car's vtec kicks in, yo

That's got to be the quickest side by side passes in Pro Mod history!I wonder if there has been a faster Pro Mod pass than 5.46?
Not yet
"CC" camarocowboy yup
THAT FINAL RACE...WHAT????????????????
You don't get a much closer race than that. Lol.
Dude had sumthin in his back pocket for his ass...got caught slippin...lol!
GAWD DAMN!!!!
good pass but get the jtters off of ya ...
Yeah, Frankie Taylor was running 5:40s almost 5yrs ago..Most other the Fast Cars arent in 5:40s now, something to be said or what does Frankie No?
Robert Hight 339.87 mph 3.807 blower car.
Pro mods are awesome. Pro stock with nitromethane.
Very nice car
If this is a world record it must be old as hell cause we got cars in NHRA running blowers going 300+, I guess they mean outlaw record
Why do a lot of the cars have those sheets over the rear wheel arch ?
keep the sun from inflating tire pressure in the staging lanes
He is the man!
That was a close ass race
and franky only drop 208mph in tha 1/8 on that pass, i wonder wat it would run if he woulda dropped his 3.4x@218mph, maybe a 5.39@275plus
"Thats soft af" that guy was talking about himself
No ear protection while idling? Puh, even my notebook was too loud.
Be seeing him in Ennis Texas again real soon
Who built that motor??
OH COME ON THIS WAS AT THE ONLY NATIONAL RACETRACK BY MY HOUSE
WICKED FAST!!
What do they spray into the blower on start?
normal petrol, much easier to start the motor on
Wow if I drove that I'd have to let off. Wouldn't want to die
that is the fastest car i have ever seen
Ur into racing
Frankie Taylor from The Lone Star State
What's the hp
dragracing wow is that it 150 hp 🙄
How come there is no one in the stands? Crazy!
Car tracks super straight
+Jeff Curran that's the name of the game "traction" it doesn't matter how much power you're makin if you aint puttin it to the ground you aint winning!
Damn all mighty
They've got that suspension fucking perfect... Plus good driver, but shit that thing doesn't get out of shape at all O_O
Title should be Worlds Second Fastest
You know that thing is tuned when theres no surge
Flippen awesome shit!!!
Man that guy must be Def
I just got a 2019 Kia forte.... wanna race ?????All jokes aside..... Seriously impressive though fellows. Nothing beats a blown big ass block and the smell of alcohol burning.
How much hp does it produce?
Around 4 to 5 thousand horsepower
I seen that 5.46 in the other lane maybe a hole shot ?
Can't believe he ain't wearing any hearing protection
that is the smallest top pully on a blower i have ever seen,bet he is pushing 3olbs or more of boost.
more like 50-60 lb/s
well he does run nitro meth sure requires lots of air eh :p
Maximus gameplay I'm not %100 but I think they are only allowed to run methanol. They maybe able to run nitro if they don't use a supercharger.
Maximus gameplay He does NOT run nitro. It's illegal. And he was only running 105% overdrive on the blower from what I heard. Up to 128% overdrive is legal, so there is more left in it.
its an outlaw event, no nitro but i bet he has a ton of overdrive in that blower given there are no restrictions on it
Holy, and it's alcohol mixed with some Nitrous Oxide
smjjohnson try Nitro methane
No, straight methanol no additives allowed.
anyone got specs on the engine????
Street outlaws better watch out 😏
WOW THAT IS FUCKIN STUPID FAST>>>>VERY NICE !!
Lookin at the pulleys.....80-90% overdrive and with a PSI.....About 60 lbs boost?
he will be def soon can you hear me know
