Default Another Drag race photo

Here's another drag race photo doctored up in Photoshop. I find that the most dramatic photos are taken during the burn out when large amounts of white smoke are produced. Very little smoke is seen during the actual race unless a driver smokes the tires which almost always means a loss.

Cool photoshop. I've been to a INDY race but never a drag race. Is it fairly loud?

Indy cars are loud and very high pitched. Top Fuel dragsters and fuel funny cars (like this one) are more than loud, they almost knock you over with the sound pressure waves. You must wear ear protection if you are within a 1/4 mile when they light off.
