The fuel usage here doesnt matter jack shit, compared to the ocean BP decided to cover mios of fish and birds in!
Even then, there is 1 of this thing and there are maybe 5k dragsters in the world. But there are 1 billion+ cars for avg Joes out there, those count in the big picture, not this showpiece. We just gotta get regular diesel engines running on rapeseed oil and we're golden, then we can grow fuel and tell the sandppl to f off. Look at Audis TDI R15 for racing diesel power or Cummings
who gives a damn how much fuel they use its a drag race, it no longer translates into miles per gallon but smile per gallon!... i'd drive a muscle car over a rice burner any day...but that is just me
Awesome video. I could watch this over and over as I have seen Shockwave many times in Cedar Falls, Iowa, but yell too much during my recording! All I can say if anyone has never seen this magnificent machine, you are are missing out. Adrenaline to the max! Thank you!!!!!!!
@EurekaTrustson42 none of its gas. the diesel engine is obviously number 2 diesel and the jet engine is grade a jet fuel aka kerosene. no gasoline involved. but it is a waste. i bet he made money though after the FUEL bill was paid. i bet his commuting time isnt that much either
@EurekaTrustson42 its smiles per gallon man...who cares about how much fuel you waste its a bloody race all about speed its not like you're gonna travel cross country with it or anything
@LordReaper117 Whoa that comment is old. I was probably thinking about how high the gas prices were at that time, so I was just concerned about all that fuel burning. But yeah, not sure what to say.
AHHH YESSSS; if you ever get a chance to see a night of fire at the drags go! an experiance you will never forget, especially the nitro cars at night, amazing!
bob motz was the first to make a jet semi as far as i know but shockey was the first to use 3 jets instead of one. ;o) videos really arent the same as being there in person. if you ever get the chance to see stuff like this live go. many things in life are worth seeing at least once
HELL YEAH!!!

One major thing about that. They don't use gas. Also, that's why you pay 30 bucks a head to see the show.
