2 Seals & 15 Soviets vs ~ 3000 seems fair
better imageLooks like. Didn't know they buried themselves upside-down in the sand though.

I have always considered myself a mere Boat Ninja. I have been told for years by many of my former deckhands and mates that I was the Boat Sensei, but there never seemed to be anyone of higher rank to tell me so.How did the Boatninja not know this?

I don't really know much about top fuel engines, but being able to utilize that much HP in a 16 foot 700 lb hydroplane even going in a straight line, I don't care how far gives me doubt. And that is about all I have to say the whole damn thing, because my give-a-shitter is gave out about whatever it is you have to say.Shows you don’t know much about top fuel engines. They have run as high as 11,000hp peak and start around 7000.
heres a random almost 10 year old dyno run from Schumacher
View attachment 8294492it’s for a dragster, but still top fuel and possible.
I can't even imagine, just from the stories I've heard from CG vet's in my family and those that have worked for me....Doing SAR cases we called those guys job security
I remember those ads. Seven bucks was a King's ransome to a little kid like me back then.
No stone to throw…. Catch myself doing that with books and magazines all the time! LoL
Thanks cousin Dad.
"Extra teeth" meaning closer to a normal amount of teeth, or you after women with like three rows of teeth and shit now?I pay extra for teeth
Crazy how things change. Nobody is going to be happy in the high 4s anymore. We watched the first sub 4 second runs for funny car and top fuel at Bandimere around 2012. That a mile or so above sea level.Some of you may have seen this, some of it may be rubbish, and I know it’s old. In any case I don’t have the experience to know, but even if part of it’s correct it’s impressive.
Enjoy:
* One Top Fuel dragster 500 cubic-inch Hemi engine makes more horsepower than the first 4 rows at the Daytona 500.
* Under full throttle, a dragster engine consumes 11.2 gallons of nitro methane per second; a fully loaded 747 consumes jet fuel at the same rate with 25% less energy being produced.
* A stock Dodge Hemi V8 engine cannot produce enough power to merely drive the dragster’s supercharger.
* With 3000 CFM of air being rammed in by the supercharger on overdrive, the fuel mixture is compressed into a near-solid form before ignition. Cylinders run on the verge of hydraulic lock at full throttle.
* At the stoichiometric 1.7:1 air/fuel mixture for nitro methane the flame front temperature measures 7050 degrees F.
* Nitro methane burns yellow. The spectacular white flame seen above the stacks at night is raw burning hydrogen, dissociated from atmospheric water vapor by the searing exhaust gases.
* Dual magnetos supply 44 amps to each spark plug. This is the output of an arc welder in each cylinder.
* Spark plug electrodes are totally consumed during a pass. After 1/2 way, the engine is dieseling from compression plus the glow of exhaust valves at 1400 degrees F. The engine can only be shut down by cutting the fuel flow.
* If spark momentarily fails early in the run, unburned nitro builds up in the affected cylinders and then explodes with sufficient force to blow cylinder heads off the block in pieces or split the block in half.
* Dragsters reach over 300 MPH before you have completed reading this sentence.
* In order to exceed 300 MPH in 4.5 seconds, dragsters must accelerate an average of over 4 G’s. In order to reach 200 MPH well before half-track, the launch acceleration approaches 8 G’s.
* Top Fuel engines turn approximately 540 revolutions from light to light!
* Including the burnout, the engine must only survive 900 revolutions under load.
* The redline is actually quite high at 9500 RPM.
* THE BOTTOM LINE: Assuming all the equipment is paid off, the crew worked for free, & for once, NOTHING BLOWS UP, each run costs an estimated $1,000 per second.
The current Top Fuel dragster elapsed time record is 4.441 seconds for the quarter-mile (10/05/03, Tony Schumacher). The top speed record is 333.00 MPH (533 km/h) as measured over the last 66′ of the run (09/28/03, Doug Kalitta).
Putting this all into perspective:
Lets say the you are driving the average $140,000 Lingenfelter twin-turbo powered Corvette Z06.
Over a mile up the road, a Top Fuel dragster is staged & ready to launch down a quarter-mile strip as you pass by it. You have the advantage of a flying start. You run the ‘Vette hard up through the gears and blast across the starting line & pass the dragster at an honest 200 MPH. Just as you pass the Top Fuel Dragster the ‘tree’ goes green for both of you.
The dragster launches & starts after you. You keep your foot down hard, but you hear an incredibly brutal whine that sears your eardrums & within 3 seconds the dragster catches & passes you. He beats you to the finish line, a quarter-mile away from where you just passed him. Think about it – from a standing start, the dragster had spotted you 200 MPH & not only caught, but nearly blasted you off the road when he passed you within a mere 1320 foot long race!
My grandpa probably would have went and kicked the guy after the horse did. He didn't have any sympathy or regard for people who trained horses like that. Want a flinchy jumpy scared horse that doesn't trust people. Thats how you make one.lol, I love watching people getting kicked for doing dumb shit around horses

Big Pharma does not want cancer cured any more than they want the common cold cured.I read this all and think....
Look at the level of dedication involved by every person who puts that car down the track. The work....the money....the time.
Imagine that level of effort put towards something like curing cancer or going to Mars.
Not saying racing for records/titles is a poor substitute. But if that level of effort clearly exists (elsewhere)....why the fuck haven't we already succeeded on those fronts.
Thats a level of dedication you can only get when people are free to do what they love.I read this all and think....

Well, you still argue your side and get a little butt hurt over someone telling you your thoughts are wrong….definitely shows you care, if not you would just move on. Also, it’s pretty funny you can’t be told you’re wrong in without you getting an attitude about it.I don't really know much about top fuel engines, but being able to utilize that much HP in a 16 foot 700 lb hydroplane even going in a straight line, I don't care how far gives me doubt.

So, the guy in the back seat is sitting back drinking a beer while awaiting rescue and the guy in the front is opening another beer, while the woman uses her drink cup in a futile attempt to bail and the third guy is worried because he didn’t make sure that there were enough life preservers onboard before departure…
Did Ralphie find those in the parking lot of a Walmart?
