Teamwork
« on: July 27, 2015 - 09:38:58 AM »
I was able to catch these videos after the quarter-final round of the Top Fuel Dragsters at the Mopar Mile High Nationals Sunday.  The Lucas Oil team had just made a pass but unfortunately melted down a piston (see pic below) and lost.  Keep in mind this is within minutes of finishing their run, and you can hear the other quarter-final runs in Part 2. The teamwork and speed of the motor disassembly was incredible.

It's taking me a bit longer to get my engine done, for sure!
