There is something faster than speeding street cars, they are the funny cars. The first funny cars were built in the middle of 1960s; the rear wheels had been moved forward on the chassis and its rear tires were over sized than the stock which is why it is named “funny”. They were built with that look for these cars to run very fast. I don’t think they are funny; they are actually amazing cars with very fast performance. Funny cars are cars made for drag racing; they have forward – mounted engines and have bodies that are carbon fiber. They are considered as top fuel dragster.

Funny cars speed performance is due to is unique fuel system, which is a mixture of nitro methane and alcohol where the fire or heavy smoke in the rear is from. Funny cars have 9000 horsepower and consume 57 liters of fuel for ¼ mile run in 4.7 seconds. Funny cars have win parachutes that stabilizes and slow down the once it crosses the finish line, this is also for the safety of the driver, spectators and people in the track. Funny cars are very fast, brakes and twin parachutes helps to stop it fast once it passed the finish line.
