School Bus Drag Racing

Summertime Torque Trials

As this video shows, not all drag racing school buses are created equal—especially those capable of an 11-second quarter mile. This is not your run-of-the-mill school bus. For one thing, the front end’s completely modified to look like a semi truck, and you’ll see a giant rear spoiler. For another, well, just watch the thing go. I’ll bet the kids that rode on this bus never got to use the “My bus was late” excuse…
