not exactly a blip, but still one of my favorite clips of pit warmup.
in advent of online worldwide web, not too many good clips from this
late 90's era (pit warmup)......sure wish the nitro% was back like this. top fuel old school warm up nhra with switchover - YouTube
watch this video @ 3:02-3:04
as the fuel is being starved, the pressure/volume is decreasing; at this point
in the shutdown the exhaust flames are clearly visible.
question 1: is this a lesser point in fuel volume (say down from 90+gal/min)
and air pressure that allows the less saturated exhaust to visibly ignite?
question 2: at this point is this a fair representation of where the hp was
in the 70's? (exhaust visible @ idle)....if so, are we seeing a brief glimpse
of 1970's hp at the very end of a 2011 warmup?....2000hp? higher/lower?
does this make sense?
