That is incredible!

 

I didn't realise there'd be that much give in the tyres

 

Wow a Drag's car

 

Redneck-tastic!

Such low tyre pressures surely for them to deform that much?

Really impressive video.

 

Amazing

I'd love to go round filming stuff with a camera like that.

 

Quality video. They do occasionally use a similar set up on Top Gear, and the results are amazing to say the least.

Good find Dreamer

 

I have been messing about making car videos for some time but the kit to record at a very high frame rate is mega bucks. I do however have a decent edit suite which renders the "in between" frames. It seems better than just playing the video back at slow speed.

Vid is here Click slomo

IIRC first shot is 50% then 20, 10 & 5%

Good find dreamer Very interesting

 

I can't claim credit i'm afraid, it was on one of the scooby forums!

 

no matter how many times i see these live i cant get over how much noise they make

800 bhp used just to turn the supercharger to 49 psi

stand close to the track, they make your teeth rattle and your eyeballs wobble to the point that you cant see properly

12 gallons of fuel used per run!!!


never seen them in slomo before
