i was at the nhra museum today. this display is still there. its really neat to see it in person. gives you a great view of how much fuel is being dumped into one cylinder of a top fuel car during full throttle acceleration. this is only 3 nozzles in this display. 2 port nozzles (they squirt fuel into the cylinder onto the back side of the intake valve) and 1 intake nozzle.

Cool video of a warm up. Time trials are coming in a few weeks. I enjoy this almost more that the national event because no one is there, it is cheaper to go, and you have so much access to the teams and drivers. We brought home 3 used still in one piece blower belts a few years ago.
