One badass bird! This 1968 Ford Falcon running on 275 Drag Radials lays down around 2600hp through its 449ci Small Block Ford with a pair of 88mm Turbos, watch it tear down the track at the North Star Dragaway x275 race.

Mr Hight was uninjured by the explosion and even managed to finish the race, 9 News reports.

The little Porsche that could! Probably the least visually obvious car to take home the win at the Texas Invitational 6 Speed Challenge, this 1994 Twin Turbo Porsche C2 owned by Eddie Bello from New York dominated the field and took home the win!
This time I have recorded a Bugatti Veyron with a Mansory exhaust. It also had a nice wrap for the last ‘Queensday’ we will have in the Netherlands. This car was present at an event called ‘Spring Event’. This Bugatti had a drag race against a Lamborghini Gallardo Bicolore, but the Lamborghini was humiliated! The Bugatti also did some laps on the short race track. Enjoy!
