Just thought i'd post this as i was driving to work today and got reminded of it, sammy miller does the fastest 1/4 mile run that man will ever see!! he said after a run blood use to pour out of his ears and nose!! and by the time he had put his foot to the floor he had to hit the brakes :S

Oh and the figures are something in the region of 0-60 in 0.2 seconds, 1/4 mile in 3.86 seconds? and crosses the line doing nearly 400mph

Words cant prepair you for the mind bending footage this car defys the laws of physics.

Haha i remembered having a conversation ages ago and this bloke didnt believe me that a car could do the 1/4 of a mile in under 4 seconds

Dont get me wrong it barely sounds believable but it happened soooo

 

[lbrench]

its insane! imagine leaning forward then being thrown back with that amount of force, im sure it would break a rib or 2

 

[Fred@BTM]

he's only doing the 1/8th mile chaps

that's slow compared to topfuel! they do the 1/4mile in sub 5

 

[MATT BLACK]

Top fuel ( combustion engine ) will do the quarter in 4.4 @ 336 mph (WR)

 

[Russ_16v]

Thats getting close to cup territory there (stripped obv)

July 7th/8th 1984SPR. The Cannonball. Sammy Miller ran an amazing 3.583/386.26 in the Vanishing Point rocket funny car. This still stands today as the quickest 1/4 mile pass ever on a dragstrip anywhere in the world.

P.s. Not arguing with Fred

 

[Fred@BTM]

LOL fair enough! Fred - owned

Hoe. Lee. Shhit.

Definitely something that would worry my Cup...

 

[Cal182]

Don't know what's more impressive, the 1/4mile or the guys choice of shorts and flip flops at the start!?

 

[Tony Hunter]

As nobody has said it yet,so,I'd get him in the twisty's.

Did look to have a tad of braking related understeer into the first bend there...

 

[Ollie82.]

Blatant lack of neg camb there.

Needs Turini's.

Doesn't pop as well, mind you.

That thing is insane.

 

[Ian_182]

Note that 0-100 mph in 0.4 seconds is an average accelleration of 11 G. Not for very long time, but still impressive!

This dude is apparently in the process of building something twice as insane. (asin twice the power )
