itt we speculate about gas mileage of various engines with no actual mechanical knowledge whatsoever. Hey what kinda gas mileage do you guys think NASA gets on their rockets? Gotta be like 2 miles to the gallon right I mean they are just burning that stuff like crazy on the lift off...

ROFLburger posted:yeah but those cock suckers are using some 10 million octane jet fuel and poo poo arent they My favorite thing about top fuel dragsters is the type of transmission they use is only intended to really be used once - it has a bunch of clutches and by the time they all connect and the power from the engine is fully being transferred to the wheels they have actually fused together into a block of material. The entire thing needs to be replaced for another run
