Thumbs up Jet Powered 500SEC!!! Pics!

Thats right folks!! I saw these amazing jet powered funny cars/dragsters at Union Grove last Saturday and they were amazing!

This one was modeled after a 500 SEC Limo. It ran sum pretty good times too 5.8@280MPH! Not Bad!



This Jet dragster ran the best times with his Rolls Royce engine. 5.1@340MPH!




Here is a good shot of the afterburner warming up. Damn!!, I knew i should have grabbed the marshmellows!! As you can see the driver/pilot? has to watch the temprature guage so he is in his 15 degree band of power. When he is, that afterburner becomes wicked screaming out supersonic gases!!




Here is me with another close encounter. I love to sneek on the front line!!



This picture is entitled " Good Bye "



Have A Nice Day!!
Adam

Bah, needs a blower....

Is that the standard three-pointed star SEC grille or is it larger?

He should stick a GE90 on there.

I wonder times that would bring in 1.2s at 900mph?
