You’ll never get this out of an EV, the sound, the excitement, the speed. Blistering.

I remember being at Darlington Dragway in March of 1987 when Bill Kuhlman ran the very first 200mph pass in a door slammer. It was in the Top Sportsman class about 3 or 4 years before Pro Mod became the spin off class. Not only did he break 200, he really killed it with 202.24 It was also Darlington where the first ever 5 second pass was done by door slammer, Mitch Stott, I was there for that too, maybe 100 people at track, was a test day, not an actual sanctioned event. He ran 5.98

I was skipping 5 seconds being impatient and i SKIPPED ENTIRE RACE !!!! HAhahahaha 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

Its not weird. Its by far, more interesting to see someone even make a caddy dragster regardless of if it won or not. Most people hear Cadillac and automaticlly think slow as a brick and for many years they would have been right. It wasnt until the the luxury cars needing high performance speed trend established by bmw Mercedes and lexus, but then cadillac was forced to do something to stay competitive. And then there was matrix movie and its white caddy, that cadilac started being concerned with speed and making quick cars. Even now when someone says Cadillac, I am used to the last 3 decades reputation of Cadillac, being slow luxury grocerie getters for people over 65.

That's a gen1 turbo. Gen2's are quicker off the line even. They've increased so much now that the blower cars are asking and demanding weight increases. Go look at the front of a promod turbo car now and see all the ten pound plates on the front. It's funny because years ago, Stevie Fast made a joke video about turbos demanding a weight gain for blowers but now blowers can't compete with the new turbos spooling on higher rpm ranges with co2 injection.

WORLD'S FASTEST NITRO DOORSLAMMER ON WORLDS SLOWEST COMPUTER .

@Chris_Harris

5 жыл бұрын

What nitro doorslammer? Those were both on racegas. Trust me bro, Nitromethane is so easy to spot. Everyone either has a mask on or is crying, the ground is shaking so bad that shit is falling off railings everywhere. When they bust a burnout, it's with the nitro turned way down or even off for alcohol because they'd eat part of the clutch/engine doing it. That's why a nitro car needs to have the hood lifted after a burnout. They pull a tie and it turns the nitromethane right up. Engine sounds much deeper because it's actually technically running on a cooler fuel which is why they use Nitro in the first place...the fact that it's power to heat ratio is pretty much unmatched in the world. Lastly, NOBODY in the burnout box even attempts the fingers in the ears thing for sound. EVERYONE has full ear..well for different reasons...first they're crying from the nitro, second a nitro burnout is like twice as loud as racegas one third, fingers just don't work for when those bitches unleash. Any long term nitromethane person is smart enough to know you can't go near one without gear to save your eyes and ears. Most power, most cooling but it's insanely violent. Fun fact...EVERY race they burn a full clutch, every plug, bust shit, bend shit and just create so much chaos from making 10,000HP that they have to pull the full engine apart EVERY run...no "Doorslammer" in this world could even pull an engine and replace it in the time an NHRA Nitromethane car takes to pull an engine apart, toss broken or the WELDED clutch plate stack in the garbage and replace the engine back. Anyways, this has been a post from Dr. Obvious.

Yes because you could because the need access to the engine to pull the nitro plug and do some other things to the engine after the burnout because if they had them all turned on, the burnout would be a run. They turn a bunch of shit off/down on a nitro car for a burnout because as soon as they turn the nitromethane up, it starts eating engine parts, plugs foul before being burned off, the clutch plates physically WELD themselves together on every run etc etc. Dude, there are tons of "this is a nitromethane funny car" videos on youtube. Go watch one and see how impossible what you just said it plussss learn some on nitromethane engines.
