Any fans of sports cars will likely know plenty about the top drag racing car brands and models, such as the Chevrolet Corvette. Yet, there are some classic cars that many people would not have seen in a drag race, such as the Swamp Rat 27. The team from the Chillin' with Chet channel on YouTube visit Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing, which is home to the wildest drag car collection anyone will ever likely see. Most rides are experiments and unlike anything on the market.

A Museum Of Drag Car Experiments

Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing does not only house drag cars that many people know about. But, the majority of their collection boasts some of the wildest drag car experiments ever. For instance, the tour gets off to a crazy start as the team's first stop is at a Swamp Rat 27, which features a sideways mounted V8 engine. A Swamp Rat with a V8 is pretty cool on its own, let alone featuring a sideways motor.

They turn around and find an Oldsmobile that features a 348 Cadillac V8 in the rear, which can churn out an impressive 152 mph. Then, they find a section that dedicates itself to extremely thin tires. A few decades ago, drag racing strips saw a lot of smoking tires and Chet even admits he doesn't understand how they manage to stay straight, let alone stay intact. It is quite remarkable to see what some of these experiments are, and even more impressive to know that some of these rides actually made it down the strip at all.

As Chet and the team continue their tour, they come across nothing but wild drag cars. Some boast 2,000 horsepower, while others feature plastic tires. It is unbelievable what is on show in this collection.

Chet jokes that maybe a Tesla submarine will feature in the museum one day. But, with such a wild lineup already on display, it wouldn't surprise us.

Overall, any drag car fan has to take a look at this wild lineup at the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing. The collection offers rides and experiments that have never hit the market, even Chet and his team cannot believe some of what they find.
