I've seen several mid to high 4-second jet car passes. They are pretty entertaining to watch. I saw one that had the body of a stretch limo that ran a low 4-second pass..

I wish I could have seen rocket cars, but they were outlawed a long time ago. I think it was a safe and wise decision, as strapping yourself to a rocket is not necessary just to say you went down the 1/4 mile in under 4 seconds. They were using the same type of fuel nasa uses on the space shuttle. WTF&gt;!&gt;! lol

No you didn't. I know Al Hanna personally, and that car has never gone that quick. I've seen that car at most of the East Coast events it's been to. Add a second to the time you posted.
