VIDEO: NHRA Top Fuel Dragster Drift

Published on May 31, 2016

There’s no doubt NHRA’s Top Fuel Dragsters are the fastest accelerating race cars in the world. Powered by nitromethane fuel, these dragsters will do 0-60 mph in 0.2 sec and can reach a top speed of over 300 mph in a quarter mile.

It requires immense skill and concentration to keep the 7000 hp machines pointed in a straight line. But, once in a while things to go wrong and thanks to modern camera equipment we can relish some of the moments in slow motion.

This footage of a NHRA Top Fuel Dragster drifting in slow motion is probably the best video you’ll see all day. Watch as the driver counter-steers a 7000 hp dragster at 330 mph. Pure insanity!
