Probably not the right term, but I want to "seed" a video of the dragster around the net in an attempt to increase traffic through our website..

Does anyone have any recommendations as to ways of doing this, or sites to use?

Cheers in advance folks,

Submit it to Google for a start: https://upload.video.google.com/

Btw, just watched the 9 sec run on your website - I'm astounded at how you can steer that thing with a set of BMX wheels up front!

Somewhere around 6-8,000Hp, 0-100mph in 0.8 of a second, 0-250mph in 660ft

And some tiny little front wheels!

Is there a smiley for 'jaw hits ground'?

I was looking at some stats from this weekends Easter Thunderball @ Santa Pod..

Hakan Fallstrom on a licensing pass in a top fuel dragster..

Driver / Rider# RT# 60 ft ET# 330 ft ET# 594 ft ET# 1/8th# 990ft ET# Finish Line#

HAKAN FALLSTROM# 0.519# 0.893# 2.293# 3.135# 3.322# 240.60# 4.209# 5.081# 249.87#

So thats 0-240 in 3.322 seconds
1/4 mile in 5.081 but looking at the speed for that time, I'd say he was off the throttle at 1100 feet..

Timing data for all of the classes is available here --> timing data
