The final run of the rocket bike #dragrace #motorcycle #legend

This rider doesn't have a throttle. Once this bike starts — it cannot be slowed down. The only thing that can stop it is the fuel running out. Because this man doesn't ride a motorcycle. He sits on a hydrogen peroxide rocket that converts chemical pressure into pure thrust at 1,200 degrees through rear nozzles. At speed, stopping isn't part of the design. The fuel tank is the only limit.So before every single run — he makes one calculation. How much fuel to load. Too much and the bike outlasts the track. So when he strapped in for his final retirement run at Santa Pod in front of packed grandstands — He had already made that decision. When the crowd went silent. The reaction started. The fuel ran out exactly where he calculated it would. And the record book had to be rewritten. CREDIT: @cycledrag on YT
