Think about it, from a standing start, the dragster had spotted you at 200mph, and not only caught, but nearly blasted you off the track when he passed you within a mere 1320 foot long race course.
But he didn't see the sweeping right hander just past the finish line...

Or the hidden speed camera set up to protect the public from themselves.....'course, the PMs motorcade would prolly thrash the dragster.

Push rod V8s rule. My mates one runs on Methanol but he's managed 6.8@202. There's a whole lot more to going quick/fast than a big motor. When you get into it you have to respect the crew guys, if nothing else it's hard work keeping the damn car going.

Chris Tynan was driving my mates car, managed 170mph through the traps, chutes didn't come out and he pushed so hard on the brake pedal it folded the push rod. He went past the crash crew at about 130mph and turned right through a gate and went up the hill on the right at the end of the strip at Meremere. The car launched off the top of the hill and landed about 50 yards down the other side and buried itself in the bushes.Think about it, from a standing start, the dragster had spotted you at 200mph, and not only caught, but nearly blasted you off the track when he passed you within a mere 1320 foot long race course.

The choice was running off the end of the strip and risk tumbling the car or when he spotted the open gate, going up the hill. It's like someone said where the driver is sorting out all sorts of stuff at amazing speed. Does show that they can go round corners, though those top fuelers would be a different story at 300mph.
