Switches

Looks like he hits the main fuel pump - that's the buzzing, probably a electric waterpump and the ingnition. It looks like he has a burnout setting and pass setting that he is switching - probably for the NOS. Then as he is staging the car he purges the NOS three times. At the very end of the pass I think he's pulling the shut lever(s), and then powers down the car.

I am sure in a car like that depending on a number of things he is probably going through the traps at 7500-9500rpm.

Looks like about a 3000rpm launch.

No guys, that car is mental. :rolleyes: I think it would be fun to ride shotgun but dang I might have to change my shorts afterwards. :blink: Yeah, the cars and times nowadays are incredible. I was just wondering what all those switches were for and his RPMs through the run

He says it's a street car!!! :o
