Blast from the past

That's acceleration!

And that's why it's fun to go to the drags occasionally.
Mind-numbing acceleration.
Don't forget the burning eyes from the nitro, the deafness, and the 'feel' of the noise as it shakes your entire body.

Agreed about going drag racing, although I think 'Top Gear' presenter Richard Hammond may be having second thoughts now.

I remember many years ago watching 2 jet cars race each other at Santa Pod raceway, the vibrations through the body were something else, one of those was the one binned by Hammond.
