I hear it's become a very large class of these machines, often taking a whole day to get all the runs in the bigger sanctioned NHRA events. I see you're still a big fan of these track monsters. This one was all you could expect, eh? I personally was amazed at the lightning quick response off the line. Thrilling!
@@Utubegofukurself The unholy coupling of ancient and modern? And yes, if you crash at 45mph you could quite easily be paralyzed for the rest of your life, so I call that terrifying.
The same thing happened with the first cars. Give the industry some time to develop, I'm sure we'll see 500 mph jet buggies in the next couple of decades
I've seen scooters at Walmart pull harder than that. Sounds like a Delta-IV lifting off, and then its just like: "Ok, here we go on the big wheel kids... WEEEEEE!!!!"
I shit you not, I live in Amish country Ohio and we have an amish guy cruising around in a buggy with a 2,000 Watt kicker sound system. It sounds like a damn earthquake doing 12 mph through town with a constant "clip-clop" backbeat from the horses.
I was not sure what I was going to see. When I clicked on to this. But I believe that I either saw the man with the most faith in the world! Or someone who just can’t wait to get to the other side!
I really wasn't exspecting that and I'm pretty sure the crowd was probably like I stayed five hours for this! Someone on a mountain bike could had ran a faster time than that.
I can say with certainty that I've never seen a faster jet powered Amish buggy! The driver of this thing has serious balls, something designed to never exceed 15 mph - maybe 20 at the very most - doing 45 on solid-rubber-tire pizza cutter wheels would be far more terrifying than going way faster in a car built to go such speeds. The engine doesn't feel very Amish though, next he needs to put on a hand-forged pulsejet running on barn-distilled moonshine (I'm guessing the Amish don't drink but I have little doubt they could brew up something flammable if they wanted to).
Got some Amish aquaintences, I have to show them. I already know one Elder who's going to like it, he rides his wagon around my Farriers house yelling when dude isn't ready to go. That fella in a motorized vehicle would be a nightmare, doing burnouts and laying on the horn.
Surely a world record elapsed time... nice to see that buggy whip was barely used in this leisurely run, too. No need to upset the horse taking it home after the awarding of the big trophy.
