I call bullshit on this car. How can he make that power at only 23 psi on a stock flowing motor?

Not to be rude or anything, but is it really fun? Have been to those races and done few myself... but I don't see so cool bout drag races. To me, drag races are appealing as other races... well I guess drag race and NASCAR are in same level...

Fun I guess is subjective. Drag racing for me, is just a test of who's put the most money in their ride, not driver skill. However, it's always fun to destroy a moron for making fun of your little 4 banger.

At around 1:05 in the first vid you posted they show the dyno screen. And the power curve goes right to the top and flattens for a bit. The car made more power than the dyno can measure. Awesome.
