We used a truck diff that had plenty of brake for the weight. I never went this quick(BB Chevy natural) so it wasn't scary at all. 184 inch Econo-rail back in the day. He was able to stop it on brakes alone and I bet it was a pucker moment at the end but he saved it. Our brains are trained to see things move at a normal rate of speed. This guys brain is trained to see things move much faster and slows them down. Fighter pilots, etc. are the same way. They would beat us at Wack o Mole every time. It was the first thing I noticed on the first pass in something this quick. Very different than most door slammer.

I thought I was gonna see a wreck. Instead I saw a man who knows exactly how to handle a situation and handle it flawlessly. Way more impressive.

It was doing that cuz he was all the way on the brakes so it was shifting side to side. You ever had to slam on the brakes then the steering tried to pull to one side well its the same thing here just way faster and alot worse steering

*That* is some heads-up, cool driving right there. Well-held, got it stopped, and both you and the car come back to fight another day. Bravo.

Brings me back to the 70s when I drove a B/ED dragster, so much fun. I remember our crew always insisted I pack my own chute. Thanks for posting!

Love being able to see the tires grow and everything going on in the cockpit. Quite amazing, and thankfully safe, landing in the "capture" pit; many cars have skated straight through one. Seemed like you were sitting a couple of inches higher afterwards though. ;-)

It’s always good to watch most people walk away from crash’s and everything I’m glad you’re safe bc I always go there to help my step dad with his vl and that I’ll be racing it too but that’s why everyone should spend that extra money even if its thousands on safety stuff because a life is price less and a life just can’t be replaced

Great job of driving that beast, keeping it under control under the worst conditions...👍👍👍👍👍

This one of the best videos of what the driver sees and does I have ever seen.

Wow, what's stud! Handled that like you've done it 100 times before

I was hoping like hell it didn't roll!! Good save!! 👍🏻👍🏻

That was a ride. Glad he handled it smoothly. Very cool rail.

Congrats, you passed the previous first-place distance marker by 2'10"! (that's what the little boxwood bush is)

This is how it feels when you’re the first car to go on the green light, and then the next traffic light is red

Nice save. Always ready for the unexpected.

Maaann that was fast ‼️ Thanks for the ride

Good to know YT will randomly recomend racing videos and not just ones with cats.

A little dirt and maybe flat spots on the tires. Nice save 👌 👏

Wow That Was Fun Sumbitch .. And The Smokey Burn out Ohhhh Yeahhhh Baby

Bloody good left hand grip! 👍🏻

i could just FEEL the pain watching all of those rocks fly into the exhaust

That was rad! Glad he's ok and saved the car!

My name is Geoff. My sons name is Blake. This is why I clicked the video. SWEET!

You did a hell of a job getting that thing stopped.

Enjoy the rocks in your exhaust manifold!!! Handled it!!

Pretty good driving. Kept her from bouncing mostly . Stuff happens in drag racing unfortunately. Well done

Why did this get recommended 8 years ago

Nice finish. Good job!

The power and mayhem produced by that motor makes me giddy with excitement

Awesome control mate

Great drivin bud!

Great job buddy. Glad you got her stoped

Nice footage. Looks like you handled it great. I expected much worse.

Good job brother. Thank you for sharing .

How fast when you hit the sand? Looked like you scrubbed a lot of speed off.

OMG, I am so glad you didn’t go into the nets.

now that was a cool perspective of what its like to drive 1 of those ---i thought everyone went to rear engine dragsters back in the 70s for safety reasons

Skill experience brain and big balls from a fellow racer

That was fuckingawesome. What a great camera view. Sick car. And the tracks safety protocol works perfectly LOL

Nice straight run (no explanation as to why no chutes, so I am assuming the chute failed) nice job driving !

Great job reducing the bounce, not his first rodeo !!

Nice use of s shapes to aid slowing at the end in the steering there

Excellent driving been there Canada

Brilliant save!!!!

Great vid!

Damn! I am glad that sand trap was there....

Lovely engine note, I must say.

What’s the button on steering for?

That sudden, immediate mechanical violence never fails to excite

Are the tires cold or they cool fast enough at end of run. ? Since the pebbles and sand don't embed and even fall off . I thought tires would be sticker . I wonder how many miles RPM tires make per run ? I know depending on traction but ideally for 1/4 mile distance and diameter . Power and so forth . Them compound would be made

how much brown came out?

That was one hellofa ride boy!

How many horsepower does it make?

exciting?yep. Great vid.

glad you're safe

Is this a good choice for a beginner?

Great camera view of what could have been a disaster.....but was handled beautifully by the driver. Hopefully no rocks entered the injection scoop.
