Not to steal your thunder (no pun intended) but here is one I took 3 years ago at Baytown when Tony Schumacher won the event and set the top speed record:

Top fuelers and funny cars are by far my favorite to watch. There is just no describing it...

 

I was there for that one. Funny cars and Top Fuel is where it's at. For anyone who hasn't witnessed it live......... omfg.......... The very first time they started up a funny car in the pits I nearly had a heart attack, then my eyes started burning, then my ears rang for a good while... AND DAMN, THERE'S JUST NOTHING LIKE THAT GROUND SHAKING POWER.

I'm soooo bummed I couldn't make it this year

 

No worries bro. Cool video. Nitro cars are wheres its at. No describing it.
