It's a lot closer than most would initially think, but the Dragster does NOT win.

Current Top Fuel Dragster record is 3.659 seconds to the 1000' mark. NHRA

Anything traveling 200mph is covering 293.333 feet per second.

293.333fph * 3.659s = 1073.305'

Now, does that negate what Flogger said about Top Fuel power? Nope. It's still awesome.

It's also crazy standing in one of the pits watching the tear down and rebuild between runs.
