8000bhp McKinney Top Fuel Dragster of Lex Joon @ Dragracing Drachten 2011 [720P HD]

Making a hell of engine noise, so loud that it was not possible to film without putting my fingers in my ears, thus having to film sideways. The images aren't that great, but the noise is magnificent!!! Enjoy...

  • @DerOllie het is natuurlijk beter dan niets,een paar van die top fuel demo's,maar dit soort monsters komen helaas niet tot hun recht als ze binnen 2.5 sec de gaskraan alweer dicht moeten draaien.'t was trouwens op enkele de regenbui en de kou(mid zomer!!!) na een mooi weekend daar in drachten met al die (super)pro-et's,volgend jaar weer.

  • @99rsk Ja dat is zo. Denk dat ik er volgend zomer ook wel weer bij ben, was erg gaaf!

  • 16x4.5 liter = 72

  • @MrYugo23 Inderdaad, 72 liter aan verbruik per keer :P

  • Da's het echte werk :P
