I will never forget, about 15 years ago I was at the NHRA drags in Petersberg VA and there was a guy there with a highly modified car in the gas category. He popped the clutch and pulled the wheels way up fast. Maybe 8 or 10 feet high. As he was accelerating up the track maybe ten or fifteen feet out, the wheels started back down fast. He bangs second gear and even though the wheels were mid way down and falling fast, he pulled them all the way back up again in second gear. I never saw a car with the wheels falling fast pull them right back up again midway though the fall. I was impressed!
