I'm happy to say I've met Don Garlits and shaken his hand. Events like this are often forgotten, but WOW... when you realize you're talking WITH that guy who did this and other incredible things? Englishtown 1986
In the second video, after Garlits' run, they said that the Top Fuel cars were making 2500 HP in 1986 and running 5.50 at about 250 mph. The Unlimited cars on Drag Week are making more power than that and running almost as fast.
