This is the ultimate palace of speed. Except for speed, everything else seems to be a fantasy. Welcome again to the top arena of drag racing, where your adrenaline can surge through the screen!
I don’t know what kind of racing competitions you go to watch? If I give you a recommendation, you must go to see a NASCAR race and the top drag racing in the United States. The premise is that you must also be obsessed with speed.
In addition to the United States, there are also equally popular drag racing in Europe. About an hour's drive from Stockholm, Sweden, there is an arena called Tierp Arena, a 10,000 square meter racing venue, a perfect 1/4 mile track and a The horseshoe-shaped grandstand brings a wonderful experience to 20,000 fans. One of the rounds of the 2019 FIA European Drag Racing Championship was held here.
Here, top fuel racing cars with tens of thousands of horsepower are flying by in front of you. Once you accept the baptism of nitromethane, you will come back to this place again and again, you will be addicted!
In fact, in this place, in addition to the speed that disappears in the blink of an eye, there is also the noise, vibration and pressure generated by the tens of thousands of horsepower engines. Imagine a jet flying just a few meters away from you…
Once the race starts, it's like ten thousand wild horses running for their lives. Even your internal organs will tremble, and the car has finished before you realize it. To be honest, it is normal to feel a little nervous when watching this kind of game live.
But don't panic, you have to brace yourself! ! !

Wearing earplugs and earmuffs is sometimes necessary. After all, loud noise can cause tinnitus and deafness. In severe cases, if it causes bleeding in the ear, the ear canal may be damaged or the eardrum may be damaged, affecting hearing, especially for photographers and on-site event personnel.
Even though this is Europe, there is no shortage of people playing in the United States. Cars from different categories take turns, which also shows that the European competition scene is full of energy.
If you have the opportunity, you can see how the team builds their engines. Of course, you can encounter trucks equipped with jet engines and have close contact. I believe the huge engines will surprise you.
In addition to the attraction of the race itself, the cooperation is also very interesting, such as the ecstatic gestures when different teams send signals to their drivers...
You really see women in such top events, just like you see female riders at the Isle of Man TT. Anita has won three Top Fuel championships since competing in 1987. When Anita isn't competing, she's a simple chicken farmer in Finland...
