Interesting comparisons. Never have had the thrill of running top fuel, but I did have a ride in a Top Alcohol car a few seasons..... At that time we were only running 5.80's, they're much faster now but I can't even began to imagine just how much harder a top fuel car accelerates!!!! Maybe I can't imagine it, but I sure would like to try it just ONCE!!!!!!

The guy who owned the Top Alcohol car I drove, like the rest of us, would have killed to be able to step up to Top Fuel!!!! He's a very knowledgeable and successful businessman. It was his estimation that our budget for running a full season in Div. 5 would have almost been enough to make 1 National event in a Top Fuel car!!!!
