I had the pleasure to see these cars live at Infeneon Raceway. When they accelerate the noise is so loud that even with ear plugs it hurts. Feels like the engines sucks the air out of you...
With a power somewhere around 7000-8000 hp, a Top Fuel dragster accelerates from 0 to 100 mph (160 km/h) in less than 0.8 second, subjecting the driver to a force about 5.7 times his weight, and almost 11 times quicker than it takes a production Porsche 911 Turbo to reach the same speed. They can exceed 280 mph (450 km/h) in just 660 feet (0.2 km). These cars compete in a 1/4 mile (0.4 km) race and complete it in less than 4.5s at upwards of 330 mph (530 km/h).
