I agree. That is a hell of a unique idea for a drag car.

A respectable burnout. That’s becoming a lost art

So this is apparently what happens when a hippie gearhead gives up LSD for speed.

Maybe the trippin' inspired the Mental Breakdown creation.

It's certainly the most unusual drag car that I've ever seen!! Quick drag car though, it should've gone into the 6's!!

"Ahhhh, you can't burnout tires that wide..." *Shreds tires like they're cheese wheels.*

GREATEST DRAGSTER I'VE EVER SEEN

That is some mean sauerkraut.

Now that is a work of art right there 🤘

It might be a 1967 antique VW Type 2, including the stretch pick up truck with longer doors and chopped top. It also featured oblong skylights, but it is the last year for it along with 6 volt electrical system.

Very awesome looking machine

untold44 it’s a show car. Why would they melt the rings, fry the blower every pass just to make full HP when the cars just for show. You guys are slower than this things lap times. Again learn more about Top Fuel before you start talking shit. Top fuel and Nitro basically blow their engines every pass making those power numbers. He’s not winning races he’s giving the crowd a show. Mot to mention his c5 that has a build crate race motors wheel base and weight is about 1/4 of this thing. And no it’s not on low boost his 7.9 pass was with massive 6870’s and no it’s not on low boost. Not to mention do you even know the amount of CFM a 68 puts out? Do you even know what CFM is?! But the fact you used him as your main example explains a lot. 1320 was probably your first time getting into drag racing and now you think you know everything about it.

That was a nice launch right there

check out details on the builders website - www.theintergalacticcustomshop.com/about-us.html Here is some info.....Designed and built by Wayne Allman , Mental Breakdown started life as a 1965 Volkswagen single cab pick up. Badly damaged in a fire, it probably would have been scrapped if it had not been transformed into the dragster it is today. It still has the original cab and doors, although these have been modified to lose a total of 14 inches in height and fit snugly onto the custom built 4130 chrome moly chassis.

In Brazil this is called Volswagen Kombi and they are slower!
