VIDEO: 500km/h+ in the blink of an eye

On board with Steve Read in his Top Fuel dragster

Yesterday we brought you a video showing a Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 where the party piece was its rapid deceleration from 330km/h. Here, we bring you some on board footage filmed in 2009 showing the devastating acceleration of a Top Fuel dragster.

The dials you see in frame were added digitally for effect and we can only assume their readings are legit. First thing you will notice is how quickly the speedo moves from rest to 500km/h plus. On your second viewing pay attention to the fuel gauge and G meter.
