Alcohol dragster?

Now, granted, a 80,000 pound semi will probably sink better going 70-80 mph than a 2,000-2,400 pound dragster/funny car at much higher speeds, but might be worth a shot.

Thanks for posting that photo, we are the ones who put those flowers there after the race was over. There were wild daisy's everywhere around our pit area at the top end there and I got my scissors out and clipped a bunch to put in the sand(gravel) trap and the 6 of us had our moment of silence. We did not know him personally but he was part of our drag racing family no matter what class we all run in.
Our condolences to his family and many friends.
