Thats such a cool video -- love seeing the fuel just pour out of those injectors at WOT. Same guy did one with a GoPro installed inside a tire.

Does he shift?
Look at how little steering input there is
Oil dry on the track - no problem!

Fascinating build of a 305 Chevy starting with baseline TPI that makes over 260 HP on the dyno. Not sure how it rated higher than my Vette engine stock ratings. Could be the headers and aftermarket EFI they used.

This guy has a stack of videos on different engines - might be some good future watching / learning on other engine topics

No accessories and headers. My 350HP LS1 made over 400HP on the Hutter engine dyno stock, compared to the 350HP it was rated at. Probably pretty normal. The factory stuff is all rated as in the car I believe.

Also not an emissions restricted ECU - not EFI as I mentioned in the first post.

Their top-end is unnn-limited!! They're doing roll-racing on the straight away at some oval track, kinda cool.

Somehow watching Tony Stewart learn how to drive a top fuel dragster made me appreciate how violently fast these race cars are.

I've watched many hundreds of races of these cars and it did not impact me like this. Maybe the extra info on the complexity, maybe the camera work I don't know.
