Yes, that is four NITROS - 4 NITRO FUNNY CARS at the Perth Motorplex on Boxing Day.Four Nitro Funny Cars plus over 200 Drag Racing teams is the only way the celebrate the post Christmas at the Perth Motorplex.
See Video.
Nitro Funny Cars cram the same big block V8 monster that powers a Top Fuel Dragster into a regular size sedan body. The result is the most explosive, ground shaking and volatile motorsport experience bar none.
