that's cause they have bicycle wheels to steer the car :homer:

 

[Kelly]

not exactly "cars" tho are they?!

 

[Jules-B]

lol at bike wheels!

ive always wanted to have a go in one of them...corse not the driver but as a passenger..

0-100 in a second. some of them

 

[HYBRID]

not exactly "cars" tho are they?!

well just coz they do in under the 5 second bracket doesnt mean theyre not cars lol

well they are trully insane NRHA machines.. but damn.. some of those crashes make u shit urself lol.. :homer:

 

[Jules-B]

especially the ones where you can see bits of the car flying!!

 

[Adam_Glanza]

the cars are kinda designed to fall apart like that tho i think and just leave them with the "cockpit" which is super strong for safety

 

[Greg0r]

fear some of them explosions! the amount of fuel being pumped through must be obscene

looks really safe

yeh the drivers are in super strong capsules, doesnt always keep them safe tho

i think, these cars are obviously designed for racing and it jst shows that it can go wrong, who can predict a tyre blow out etc? so racing on the road there is more to crash into, were as on a track at least ya either gonna get stuck in a sandpit or slide down a barrier or sumthin!!!

 

[GP82]

The slow burnin' methanol mix behind the cockpit scares me alone, it must be crazy to try and keep them straight, stopping is another story

 

[HYBRID]

well considering theyre all under the 5 sec bracket.. well they would b coming into the line @ around 240mph to say the least..

breaks?!?! what breaks lol

they are all top methanol cars.. this is the big league guys..

thats amazing surprised they dont try to keep the tyres on the car when they crash like f1 does
