In the UK it's small but dedicated.
We have the fastest strip in Europe and (arguably) the world's fastest road legal car: Red Victor 3. It runs a low 6 at about 240mph. I don't follow it like I used to, but I think it might have been beaten in the USA now at Drag Week (maybe Larry Larson)
I'd guess Australia will have a pretty decent scene based on their car culture in general

But Scandinavia definitely takes the cake.

Well I just googled it, apparently, 5 is the new 6. Larson and Lutz are both into the 5s in street legal cars
Benjamin Kelly
Yeah, we're generally slower than the US but there has been a couple of times where Aus drivers have taken records, helps that we've changed our classes to emulate the American formula now too so it's easier to do back to back comparisons.
I can say though my local venue is booked out week in week out for the street meets.
Nolan Hernandez
If you just want to see something different, the Euro/Scandi scene is full of these.
Charles Adams
The Pod holds the record for the fastest pass in the world at 386mph

Pic related is great.
Brazilians have some crazy fast fwd cars, Argies only have some awd VWs and a bimmer. Scene is not so great here as in Brazil
Caleb Allen
Cuba apparently has a great drag racing scene, but only because they spend all their time cobbling together their cars from parts imported through sketchy channels.

Australia, UK, Germany, Scandinavia, Brazil, Argentina.

Brazil surprisingly has a decent drag racing scene. Some crazy Pro-Mods and some the fastest FWD are from there.

What is the saturn V, what is Space Shuttle program, what is Space x
The satrun v alone is the single greatest human achievement and you bet your sweet ass it was built right here in burger land
feel free to go through this as well en.wikipedia.org

>what is Space Shuttle program
Of all the things you could have been right about, you chose one of the worst things to ever happen to space travel
Dominic Foster
a reusable suborbital spaceflight platform? deployed GPS? enabled decades of scientific research and engineering? Parked the ISS?
yeah man definitely hot garbage
Thomas Davis
I'm argentinian too, we just accept that they have fast cars

Trash, Space X is trash.

More expensive than pretty much every other alternative? Blocked american rocket and unmanned space travel tech development for decades? Not able to perform the only task that forced it to have the kind of wings it had (bring military stuff to polar orbit)? Deadlier than any other space program? Slowest launch schedule? Pointlessly endangered the lives of 7 astronauts each launch?
Yeah man definitely the Pinnacle of space travel
When Russians, of all people, try to make a carbon copy of your amazing space tech because they want to understand what's so special about it, and then they scrap the whole program after the first launch, then you know you made something wrong.
Humankind had the tech to do completely unmanned missions anywhere in low Earth orbit since the 70s, one of the crafts we send to the ISS to this very day is a 40+ years old russian design, but then big boy NASA wanted to risk 7 lives and waste billions each time they wanted to launch a lame comm sat for absolutely no reason. There is a cheaper and safer alternative for every single one of the things you listed.
Even NASA executives said the Space Shuttle program was a failure, I don't understand how could someone still defend it.
It was absolutely gorgeous to watch, I may or may not have shed a manly tear when they retired it, but it was an absolute failure on everything it originally tried to do.

I was expecting Japan to have a good scene, but goddamn they're bad.

Many people would argue that antiseptics and modern medicine are mankind's greatest achievement.

The FIA runs a European top fuel championship.

Top Fuel only?
Don't they have some worldwide championship with Pro-Mods and Steel bodies? Must be fun seeing builds from around the world competing against each other.
