Now do a rally car
IlluminaBlade
Only one of them has to be rebuilt so it is LESS likely to become a bomb on the next run.

Jane! Stop this crazy thing!

Nyyyooooommm

Source?
TheNotSoGoodSamaritan
So the tank has the 10,000 hp, and I guess the DPS has the 850? I hate when DPS goes ahead of the tank :/

I can imagine the salesman. "Well you definitely could buy this family hatchback, but have you ever felt time melt before your very eyes?"
Zeeo
I like the angry spout of air from the 10k car, like OH NO U DIDNT !!!
FourToedJones
That's just "staging". It's how drag racing works.
jamblewanglebork
Now drive around a corner and see who gets there first.
Constenz
That kind of car has insane braking system, never seen a F1 race ?
HAILS4TIN
Hey that's my hometown!
LucasTigy
Wouldn't this be agility or Dex, not hit points?
DrShrinker
still though, a 10.5 second truck is fast as hell.
phelbore
The driver of the car has pretty slow reflexes!
deruug
I like the passenger "I don't wanna die alone wanna come with me?", passenger-"sure"
Hakosukaz
This is awesome. This is basically just showing how relatively fast them funny cars are.
Rickbot
Eat that KEN block
LiteCow
I always upvote dragsters. And trophy trucks. Pretty much anything on wheels.
equityforpunks
Look video closely and you can see how the drag car causes ~2.5 richter earthquake at launch (no joke.. look the solid mounted camera clip).
equityforpunks
At about 9-10s after the car progressed few meters.. look the painted lines on track side.
TheFoxQueen
i thought hp meant health points
ProbablyNotABotButHowCanIBeSure
Must be so hard to control... even if it's "just" straight
LurkerBee
Boom! Title of your sex tape!
KingXizor
AdamantlyDislikingAllDogs
I don't see what hit points have to do with this.
FlyingCrow91
Gotta go fast!
CassiusFaux
But one can turn. The other will shatter.
CalvinMcFly
Wow, that launch is violent!
sixpintsofbitterandquicklyplease
Sounds ridiculous. I like it. Maybe a better comparison would be an 850 hp car instead of that big truck
exileut
Truck runs 10.4s 1000ft. Drag car engine is rebuilt after every 4 second race. http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/07/trophy-truck-vs-drag-car/
almostsomething182
The video does no justice to the earsplitting madness that is a drag racer.
Hakosukaz
You might be surprised how fast those trucks are On pavement actually.
sixpintsofbitterandquicklyplease
I have no doubt that that sucker is extremely fast. I just mean that you could cram 850 hp in a much smaller, lighter package
Hakosukaz
True perhaps. But I mean it's a trophy truck. They bout as bad ass it is comes. So I like it.
CanadianOneDollarCoin
When this baby hits 500 kph we're going to see some serious shit.
ColoCamaro20
Horsepower = (Torque x RPMs) / 5252
RxPro
Yeah i was going to post this. So they are always equal at 5252 rpm, pretty neat
StarkRhino
I thought it meant health points
Whalegod
WHY ARE PEOPLE DOWN VOTING YOU?
fyndir
Everyone knows they calculate horsepower by attaching horses to the back of the vehicle, they try to run away from the engine.
fyndir
Enough horses and they stop the vehicle from moving. Too many they'll drag it backwards. Not enough and you've got a job for the intern.
conniecpu
I want to see 10,000 horses all trying to tug a car
fyndir
Well as long as it has less than 10,000 horsepower they should be fine. That's just science.
OttoElGato
Now switch. Put the drag car in the desert.
TheifofZ
One is a finely tuned, highly specialized machine. The other is a truck. Whoo. What a contest, in either situation. So surprising.
almostsomething182
They're both finely tuned, highly specialized machines. One is just out of its element.
hempfandango
but they're both already in the desert
ImPrettySure
The drag car wouldn't get far... they've got just enough fuel to make it down the 1/4 mile track.

Good luck getting the drag racer to actually START going.
boethius
That would be rather silly wouldn't it? Not to mention rather detrimental to the funny car.
DonutTheCamel
Funny cars don't have the fiber glass shells, this is a top fuel dragster, pure ethanol pumping in that engine.
boethius
Really? I thought it was the opposite. Funny cars have shells and top fuel dragsters are open with a roll cage.
DonutTheCamel
After doing my research you are right, and I shouldn't listen to my brother.
boethius
No worries. Been to one top fuel race many years ago so that's the only reason I thought that didn't sound right.
OttoElGato
Hehehe funny
InvadingYourSpaces
I know a desert that that car would still absolutely crush the truck.
almostsomething182
Probably not. Any surface besides tar would be eaten away by 10000 hp of tire spinning madness
InvadingYourSpaces
Salt flats.
almostsomething182
It'd dig trenches in half a second flat
InvadingYourSpaces
You don't put down all the power at once like at the strip. You carry the power through. It just doesn't run out of power, unlike the truck.
HaroldTheHappyGiraffe
.....Salt flats don't count
InvadingYourSpaces
Well, you're no fun.
TucoBenedictoPacificoJuanMariaRamirez
Nevada's Black Rock desert.
CobaltPants
Would not make a difference.
TheRealFireFrenzy
it wouldnt get traction for a launch like that on salt... Not on bonneville at least...
