    You're just making it sound more fun saying it that way.

    Ha ha ... yeh ... if you survive the G's off the line, and then don't literally pop an eyeball out of a socket with the wheel shake or when you pop the chute to slow down from over 300+ khp, assuming of course that the blower doesn't throw the belt when it explodes and the takes the engine with it showering you in molten metal ... it'd be way cool!!

    Hmmm. Assuming a driver's suit that handles those kinds of problems, and inboard fire system and roll cage, it still looks better protected than coming off a bike. Though I suppose the stunts weren't being done at tremendously fast speeds.

    Yeh there's obviously state of the art safety equipment in use ... but people still pass out from the G's, get hurt, or even die in drag racing. I think the main fact though is most of us wouldn't know how to even make the car move, let alone drag it.
