Depends on class. Top fuel runs nitro, but there is an alchohol class.
They burn about 10 gallons in 7 seconds, BTW. High pressure and BIG
nozzels. The reason for alchohol is cost. Not of the fuel, but of the
engine. Engines that can run nitro are very expensive to build and
maintain. Any garage mechanic can work up an alchohol engine, well
maybe not any, but it puts in within the reach of a hobbyist with
limited bux.

His point was that the subject is ethanol, and dragsters run on methanol.
Both alcohol, but not equal.

I hope I haven't consumed any methanol today, anyway!g

Not to worry. The antidote for methanol poisoning is grain alcohol.
