Rick Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 nothing more statisfying than scoring a 7 second quarter whilst upside down and at 1000 degrees
bomber1 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 those top fuelers are puting out around 3000bhp dont think a 1600 90bhp capri is going to detonate like that
Burns Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 those top fuelers are puting out around 3000bhp dont think a 1600 90bhp capri is going to detonate like that bet my fezza would

surfingturnip Posted June 23, 2007 Report Posted June 23, 2007 put it this way, if you had a crash like that whilst running 7 second quarters and survived imagine the bragging rights you would have. ' I ran upside down, on fire and I nearly died..................but I still managed to beat you' I'll say this......................give me the keys
105Nick Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 That's awesome, the top fuellers rock but I can't wait for August - monster truck racing at the Hop Farm haven't been for years but it should be fun.
V8ian Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 those top fuelers are puting out around 3000bhp dont think a 1600 90bhp capri is going to detonate like that TF are putting out around 7000+hp, and wonder why the blower belts brake so often, they push so much air, it takes 2000hp to drive one at full chat, which means if you can remove the frictional and compression losses from the supercharger the engines are making over 9000hp I think the fuel is only one step away from Nitroglycerin, which is a very unstable explosive, Most the explosions are caused by loss of fire in the engine, and with 5 or 6 injectors per cylinder which flow fuel in excess of 3 liters per second into one cylinder, lose the spark and the engine will hydraulic and explode, watch the exhaust pipes in most occasions you will see neat fuel exiting the pipe just before they go POP.
lee_capri Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 :lol:just bad luck like walking out of your gate and getting ran over by some granny on a electric-scooter neary hapend to me once great vid i think just as people are not hurt to much or killed it keeps things intressting to see miss adventures
