Once, I was granted a pit/staging lane pass to take some photos for a small magazine. Being roughly 20 feet away from a dragster during a burnout/takeoff is one of the most amazings things that I have experienced. The raw power, simply put, is an earth shaking powerhouse. Seriously, when you're looking through the shutter, and 8000 horsepower are tearing tires, you can feel the ground RIPPLING, like an earthquake.
Crazy, crazy stuff..
