I have heard that as well, they would use as much fuel as a Boeing 747 taking off! It costs over 25000$ to make one 1/4 mile run! You are correct it is called stoichiometric 14.7air to 1fuel, top fuel is up around .3air to 1fuel as it is on the verge of hydro lock! When staging some teams will wait until the last second when staging their light just hoping their opponent will overheat on the line! The tires are bolted to the axle and the axle will twist over 180degrees before the tire begins to turn. Unless you have a perfect run they never have the car a wide open throttle! Tell me more and also let me know if you think I'm wrong
