You'll always remember the
next few seconds. . .
The big block Chevy sits just inches behind your
head.
"I can do this," you remind yourself.
The lightson the tree flash yellow, then green.
You unleash the engine, and instantly it delivers
the power of 700 horses, 7500rpm of torque and
fury. The acceleration is breathtaking. Your
helmet is pressed deeply into the padded headrest.
Without the proper training and mental preparation
you'd probably quit. But for now your right foot
stays buried in the throttle. 60 mph comes and
goes in 1.8 seconds. Then 100. Then 150. And
higher. You carefully guide the car straight
down Pomona's black strip of asphalt. You fly
past the finish line more than 200 feet per second,
slam the throttle closed and go for the brakes.
After binging the car to a slow speed, you turn
off the racing surface and idle back to your
pit area. The track is a quarter mile long and
your smile a quarter mile wide. Welcome to the
world of NHRA Drag Racing.
. . .now resume breathing.
