User submit: meet “Problem Child” Top Fuel Hydro team (49 HQ Photos)

Posted: 05 Jun 2013 09:10 PM PDT

"Problem Child" Top Fuel Hydro team is powered by the same 8,000 horsepower nitro top fuel motors that the Kalitta Motorsports NHRA team uses and is the fastest and quickest top fuel hydro to ever touch water (holds the top 15 world records). The team's winning run this weekend was a  3.42 @ 253 miles per hour on a choppy lake.  Some stats:  •         Makes more horsepower than the first four rows of a Nascar race.  •         Burns more fuel than a fully loaded 747 on take-off.  •         Goes 0-235 mph in 2.5 seconds, 0-261 in 3.36 seconds.  •         Pulls more G's than the space shuttle  •         Burns 8-10 gallons of fuel in 3.36 seconds.
