I read that a European F1 racer Felipe Massa had surgery and is in a life threatening situation. I wish him the best and regards to his family. I enjoy all motorsports but i am an American dragracer by heart. As i earlier stated an example is Santa Pod raceway in the UK. Just for your entertainment here is a clip of a camera mounted to the rear axle of an 8000 horsepower nitro methane funny car. 0-331 mph. in 4.69 seconds over 1/4 of a mile! Enjoy!
