So, in the first video they mentioned that it was from 2003. A lot has changed since then. Even in 2007 they were still using the full 1/4 mile strip instead of 1000'. However, Britany Force has the current record for both ET and top speed at 338 MPH @ 1000'. The record for the 1/4 mile stands at a mere 333 MPH in 2003 for a 1/4 mile. That's a slightly higher speed in 320 feet less track.
Of course, ET's are lower now.
Since there are no known 10,000 HP conventional dynos, HP is calculated by data and physics.
There is currently a thread on PPOT talking about 0 to 60 times. Top Fuel and Funny Car do it in half a second.
