Yeah that's cool gs34. For me, problem is, being monday, I'm sitting at the desk in the office pretending to be working, no riding for me.

Might be true...
7500
Approximate peak output, in horsepower, of a competitive 2005 Top Fuel engine. That's almost 1000 horsepower per cylinder.
500
Engine capacity, in cubic inches. The block and heads are CNC-milled from solid billets of aluminum, and the oil pan is titanium.
45.5
Maximum boost, in psi, produced by the supercharger at wide-open throttle. That's more than 3.0 bar, twice the boost achieved by a Mitsubishi Evo VIII.
Rpm the supercharger spins at maximum engine speed. With the engine at 8500 rpm, just turning the supercharger soaks up 900 horsepower.
165
Temperature in Fahrenheit of the 14-71-type supercharger after just 4.5 seconds of maximum boost.
569
Number of times the engine's crankshaft turns during the entire quarter mile. Each intake valve opens 284 times.
16
Spark plugs per engine. The twin MSD magnetos produce 88 amps. You need just 12 more to power your MIG welder.
Gallons per minute the fuel system can pump at wide-open throttle. The engine will consume 22.75 gallons of fuel during warmup, burnout, staging, and the quarter-mile run.
900
Cost, in dollars, of a 55-gallon drum of nitromethane fuel. Current regulations allow a maximum of 85 percent nitromethane in the fuel mix. The rest is alcohol.
58,700
About what you'll pay, in dollars, for a new, ready-to-run Top Fuel engine.
Minutes it takes to tear down and rebuild a Top Fuel engine between rounds. Each engine is rebuilt 184 times a year (if the driver goes to the final round at every race).
28
Quarts of oil used during warm-up and quarter-mile run. The oil pan holds 70-weight oil mixed with special thickener.
6
The maximum number of clutch discs in a Top Fuel car. The multistage clutch is timed to progressively lock up during the run. Each $115 disc lasts a maximum of three runs.
