Drag racing launch in slo-mo

Have you ever heard of "mega" slow motion? Well, I have only known of its little brother called "super" up to now. It entails recording at 1000 frames per second and you should see footage taken of NHRA drag race cars leaving the starting line. You can see the tires spinning and then slower as the car gains speed at acceleration, quite cool! Also, it illustrates the individual cylinders firing of a Top Fuel car, this is shot whilst the engine is at 8.000 RPM.
