Fast Freddie
 

I have been into drag racing since 18yrs old and one of the best drivers around at the moment is a guy from Norway known as Fast Freddie.

Fookin awesome driver (proper blokes bloke) He is driving the black Chevy Truck and this would be classed as a pretty normal run for him.

By the way don't let the slo mo mislead you. His truck runs well over 200 mph in the low 6's all day long.

HD so full screen jobbie

Very cool indeed :cool:

I love watching the tyres contort under the pressure of launch and the wheelie bars digging into the track.

Excellent vid, love the sound of a v8 good sound track too :-)

Brilliant

The tyre distortion is nuts, good video :doubleup:

Tyre pressures in the Pro Mods are around 16 psi.




In these things pressures are 8 psi.
These are TF/FC (Top Fuel Funny Car) and together with the long rail versions are as serious as motor racing gets.

1st clip is Team Diehard with fire up prior to run. They do this to check fuel pressures, alter timing, clutch & reverse.

When you have ten minutes "blokes time" full screen, whack the volume through the roof, sit back and grin at these :)
