Yep - and had a lead on Tasca before he lost traction at the halfway mark. I've watched John run 338. You have no idea how fast that is until you sit in the finish line stands and watch it happen.
In a full quarter mile, unlike this 1000 feet, they would be be doing 380 MPH The fastest 1/8 mile (660 feet) time ever recorded is 300.80 miles per hour (mph), set by Mike Salinas at the 2023 Betway NHRA Carolina Nationals. Salinas, who drives for Valley Services/Scrappers Racing, reached this speed in his Top Fuel dragster. His run also included: A time of 3.647 seconds
What the hell, why didn't I hear about this before the race date. I live 1 County south and it would have been the coolest thing for me. When I've been to that track many time along with Desoto speed way before the fun factory. The promotion down here was nonexistent. If nhra can sell out gator nationals. Why wasn't Bradenton speedway. Or it didn't look like it was. Please tell me they will be back next year. I know I won't miss a race there. It's less than a hour from me. Gainesville is over 3 hours from me. Which makes it way harder to make it.
Looked like dead RT for both. Looked like John had a couple feet at the 330. Everyone dying to see those time slips but oh so few get to see them. I noticed this track didn't have a (left first bulb) Excellent racing!!!
I am not a drag racing expert but let me ask: Is it real that these cars have anything in common with road legal production cars like this one with a Ford Mustang? Or is it that just the chassis is a close imitation of a road legal production car?
I'm jst Super Happy dat it's a FEC - Fr Eng Car. TP REC - Rr Eng Car U'd Blv a FEC cdnt cm near it Speed cz it gt All dat wght n d Rr. But C a FEC Faster thn a Top Fuel (TP) REC. Yep. All ab d Tires.

It was amazing watching Tasca run 341pmh in person. Congrats Tasca and team! Bragging rights!
I'm old enough to remember the 70's when 250 mph was a big deal.
(Don Garlits 1975 5.63, 250-mph, Dragster)
I can remember when they said 200 was a big leap.
That back half of 51 MPH is huge.
Amazing feat witnessed by dozens of people.
The excelleration on the back half of that run defies physics. I can't even compute what I just watched.
Wow!!!!!
You mean acceleration, right ?
@@ctlt-pg4tm he clearly knows nothing about physics, and even less about spelling 😂
That’s One Mean Stampede.. in that Awesome Dark Horse!!! CONGRATULATIONS TEAM TASCA!!!💪🖤🐎🙌🔥
John force....still racing blew me away

@@cll1639 I've gone 310, so I have an idea
@@DB-nc4lt I'm impressed! But I was referring to someone who's never had the opportunity to witness a ground-based vehicle traveling over 300mph.

Congrats from Providence, RI !!!!!!!!!!
PVD!!! our kids played hockey together
ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM, Thanks BOB😊😊😊
Go Bob!
Yeah baby!!! More speed and more speed!!!
That is hauling the mail
Great job team!!! Making that early statement with a speed record!! John force had a good front row seat at history.
Incredible congrats to Bob Taska and team PPG
Absolutely fucking legendary! Way to go, Bob!
Incredible run
It almost looked as if he shut off before the last light too
@GritSounds that’s what I thought to 🇦🇺
That is nuts!! Ford power baby!
Hahaha. You think that's a Ford engine ? Lol
@@ctlt-pg4tmHate to tell ya, it's a Ford racing designed and built by Ford ....Ford Boss 500 top fuel engine!
It’s surreal, I’m trying to comprehend what that acceleration feels like!!
Bob Tasca III you’re a lunatic 😂
Mind blowing! WOOO!!!👏👏👏
Wow ❤ congratulations
❤ Yes! Thank you!
bro that is faster than record 338 of top fuel dragster
congrats team Tasca!
Good fricking job Tasca!
Insane
Jesus what was his 60' time? .003?
Congratulations Bob... W. T. F.... Wow.... 😮😮😮😮😮
thats great, but Nhra should honor it. WOW

Got go to thunder Valley, 24/ see this
can I get more of them pixels?
Crazy fast! Looks like John Force was slightly ahead before shutting down. But it's hard to tell from the video angle.
โคตรโหดเลยพี่ชาย🔥🔥🔥
The HurryCan couldn’t hurry enough!
I wish it was 1/4 mile record!
😂
Was this the run with the illegal headers?
I wonder what Robert thinks
He would probably say "Hats of to Bob Tasca. He did a great job!"
@@darrellbobyk6363 Yea he would probably would've said that but I'm sure Robert said in his mind "Dang it I had the record for 7 years!"
Roberts NHRA national record is not broken. A national record can only be recorded at a NHRA national event. How clear is that rule.
@@mikebaker9574 Ah I did not know that
@@MiniBikeReece377 sorry if I sounded like an ass . The 341 will still be recognized as the first man to break 340 for sure!!!
That’s a badass ford power!
Ha ha ha OK do you really wanna know what’s under the hood?

Cool.
Has a funny car ever gone faster than a top fuel dragster?
What do you think just happened in this video ?
Sure. They manage it with slightly slower ET tho.
Looked like dead RT for both. Looked like John had a couple feet at the 330.
Everyone dying to see those time slips but oh so few get to see them. I noticed this track didn't have a (left first bulb)
Excellent racing!!!
Sure wish we had a better quality than 2002
How’d he do that with a 3.841? That back half… wow.

H in the tank????
This is amazing. Congratulations
And now, they’re DQing him over the colour of the manifold. Isn’t the NHRA something else???
How can a funny go faster than a TF but at a slower et?
was this still 1320?

Are you okay? Looks like you may have had a stroke while commenting.
Speed would likely be higher for a full 1/4 mile.
That is a full 1/4 mile

Likely not , they would need to detune so as not to blow up engine or tires for an extra 320 ft

How is this a "Ford Mustang?" Is there a single piece of an actual Ford Mustang in it?

Yeah the engine is a 5.0 and has ac
