I am really pleased you all enjoyed this truely incredable article. I think the part that got me thinking the most was...
Top Fuel Engines turn approximately 540 revolutions from light to
light! *Including the burnout the engine must only survive 900 revolutions under load.
I know I think of a dragster doing the 7000 plus RPM and don't stop to realize that uses a ONE MINUTE measurement. Therefore the run is only 1/15th of the RPM rating, WOW! Anyway, really glad you liked this.

BTW, I have my car for sale or trade. I would like to get a Vintage Legal race car, like a GT350 but will consider almost anything INCLUDING a NASCAR.
Thanks in advance,
