I love the smell of Nitro in the morning!

I live in Chiang Mai Thailand and haven't been to a NHRA National event in over 5 years. Robert and I took a side trip to Vegas to attend the NHRA SummitRacing.com Nationals last April.

In addition to the huge supercharger on top of the engine that pumps air into the engine, they run on a fuel mixture of 85% nitromethane and 15% methanol. “The high temperature of vaporization of nitromethane means that it will absorb substantial engine heat as it vaporizes, providing an invaluable cooling mechanism.” And, nitromethane is an oxygen bearing fuel as well.

One of the great things about Top Fuel racing is that you can enjoy it even if you’re deaf – the sound just rumbles through your body.
