Thank you Don and friends for allowing me to go back into your shop and view some of the scenes in your shop. I also remember seeing your cars run in Bowling Green Ky in and around 1970. Amazing to see how your teams have evolved over time.

Nice video, I like seeing anything about how they build their chassis to live.

My favorite shop tour was Don"Big Daddy "Garlits in Ocala Florida. A trip to the 2013 Gator Nationals was sweet as well !

They failed to mention, just the rear wing can exert as much as 3,000+lb's of downforce. Stressing the chassis even more. Then the clutch locks into a 1/1 ratio about 2/3rds track, and flexes it even more. You will actually see the middle chassis, bow up from clutch lockup and rear downforce. The car wants to launch, thus the frt wing to plant it. These fuel pumps can pump out 90 gallons of fuel a minute. Almost X2 55 gallon drums worth. Fun facts lol

jkw427...... You might want to re-watch the video.... yes they Did mention wing down force on the back half, although the narrator only said "over 2 tons". At over 270+ there is approximately 4,800 to 6,000 lbs of down force, of course the exact position of the wing and attack angle of it, combined with wind direction also has a lot to do with the actual down force produced.

With that much horsepower you can only put so many passes on the chassis before they come apart and they are outrageously expensive so you get as many runs out of them as possible.

But WHY do these dragster frames keep breaking? While they are supposed too in a crash they have done so regularly on the track. Meaning the frames are not strong enough. I suspect that lowering the wing would help, less leverage or just bringing it forward. Or ofcourse less power as has been discussed for 20 years.

LDN Wholesale they're made to break that way to keep the driver from getting killed rather hurt

Breaking up and absorbing impact is safer for the driver. With the exception of Cory McClenathan's wild ride (which I saw in person), frame rails generally don't break without a wreck happening first. The roll cage is what needs to stay together and they do. We learned from Darrell Russell's death that protective plates are needed, but the framework seems to have a wonderful track record.
