The anatomy of an NHRA Top Fuel run
TheHoonigans - the guys behind the popular Gymkhana series with Ken Block - have recently teamed up with NHRA Top Fuel driver Leah Pritchett.
Pritchett is off to a great start in the 2017 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series. She has won the opening two rounds of the season from the No. 1 qualifying position and has already been breaking records with her Don Schumacher Racing team.
During interviews, Pritchett always ensures she thanks the team that puts together her 11,000-horsepower Dragster, and in the above video from The Hoonigans you can see why.
The video shows what goes on from the time Pritchett hops into her car ahead of a run, all the way down to the finish line.
Pritchett’s run captured above was a 3.677, which took place during preseason testing on Friday, Feb. 3 at the Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Phoenix.
