Drag racing video

Here's a cool drag racing video. Camera mounted under the wing of a top alcohol dragster and it's pointed backwards so you can see everything doing on behind the dragster. 6 second ride down the track.

Yep, pretty much what it looks like when I run. . .

I was thinking of mounting a camera in my car this year.

(While I was watching the first couple of shots, my son came over and watched over my shoulder. He said, "I thought they had a sign that said, 'No alcohol beyond this point'.")
