This was the most impressive motor sport event I have ever seen. Saw the funny car and top fuel dragsters both set quickest ET records, FC was 3.87 and TF was 3.69 at 332 mph  :O

Words cant do them justice. Must see for any car guy. TV gives you a sence of the speed but the earth shaking horse power is awe inspiring! I will be back for sure next year!!!

Not sure. One top fueler was 299 mph at the 1/8 mile but dropped a cylinder and crossed the 1000 ft at 330mph
