This was a fantastic pass! (http://s88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...t=DSCF0280.flv)
The weather was perfect on Saturday. First round of eliminations we were sitting right on the starting line.
For those of you who have never attended a Top Fuel event in person: When these cars take off from the starting line, the experience is unreal! It's so powerful, the sound waves literally penetrate your body... My chest felt like a base drum being played by a King Kong sized Energizer Bunny on crack! Does that make sense to you? It's not often that I'm at a loss for words to describe something but this one has me stumped. Imagine all of your senses being so violently assaulted by tsunami sized sound waves that you have a hard time maintaining balance if you're standing... And then, after the 2 second attack, you find yourself gasping for air. Multiply that by the 5000 or so people packing the spectator stands and you begin to get the idea.
We sat at the big end for the second round. The video only gives you a vague idea...
Top Fuel is WAY better than NASCAR!
