NHRA Drag Racing Top End Shots

[@darthluke655]

I've been searching for a video from this POV for ever. Seriously awesome!

[@Bryan-fg3ey]

I also love the sound of the engine shutting off and the mechanical noise of the differential

[@Alejandro-vb2fx]

Not hearing the diff. That's the blower or transmission

[@MsDoveandme]

Always preferred to sit in the top end so you can hear the gear shifts. Thanks for the video

[@nhragold1922]

My favorite spot

[@Alejandro-vb2fx]

That sounds sooo good

[@nickstickB]

wow! nice shots

[@johnreynolds3621]

What classes are we seeing?? Top Dragster????

[@QR3550]

John Reynolds I recorded several different classes. Top Dragster is the class right after the first couple Top Alcohol Funny Cars.

[@blakebarrilleaux8073]

Seems like 1/8th mile

[@nhragold1922]

That's 1/4

not not awesome, they are slowing down, how about taking some shots when they are FLYING BY...i dont get why no one does that! everyone either has pit videos going in the distance or top end stuff like this when they are slowing down....try putting the camera near where they are still in it at the top end going as fast as possible....NOT slowing down...i've literally seen like TWO...count it ....TWO videos like that and that's the BEST way to display the speed of these machines!

[@QR3550]

The intention of shooting from this vantage point was for audible purposes. I wanted to be able to hear the gear changes as clearly as possible and to get the maximum amount of finish line rpm. The actual speed of the cars wasn't what I was after in this video.
