Best Sleeper Cars & Trucks 1/4 Mile Compilation - I Wasn't Expecting THAT!

Compilation of some of the best sleeper cars and trucks from New England Dragway that I've caught on video. Some cars do have parachutes etc., which sleeper aficionados may find fault with, but they are faster than the average person would expect, sometimes much faster!

Whether they are all a sleeper in its truest form or not, I hope you'll find these fun to watch.

Those diesels still blow my mind, an 8, 000 lb. vehicle pulling 11 seconds is insane.

[alexvillatoro]

3:30 The guy’s reaction of the “stock” Teggy running a 10.0 is priceless 😂😂😂

[DBD]

Love the video, no bullshit cutscenes, no bullshit music. Just the cars

[spookypunky]

I was under the impression "sleepers" are vehicles that you don't expect to be fast but are. The Volvo at the beginning made sense

[readyreckoner]

Awesome video. Killer choices on the cars you included. Outstanding.

[waic]

That Acura Integra at 3:23 mark is my favorite of this vid, looks so unassuming.

[firefightingvet]

Rule of thumb if it has a 5inch cowl hood and a parachute, it’s probably not a sleeper. Good video though

[mikefelty]

I love how the Corrado was asleep at the tree, woke up, took a shower, grabbed a cup of coffee, then ran the Trans Am down with an 11 second pass!🤣

[SBUBandit]

My personal favorite was the black diesel pickup that red-lit every single time it ran. At least three red lights, and not by a little, He was leaving as soon as the stage lights were on.

Muscle car: "Hey, did you bring your Grandma's car??"
Granny in Volvo: "Hold my beer."

I love the diversity in drag racing these days!!
I’m 50 now and growing there was no car at a drag strip with a 4 or 6 cylinder engine. There was an occasional 4 cylinder Offy in a retro drag car or a supercharged Chevy straight 6 but they were rare. Nowadays you have no idea what you’re up against! There are 6 second cars with 4G63 engines and of course the mighty 2JZ which is way better than JZ! The RB engines are killers too and the Swedes are building 7 second Volvo engines and on and on!
If you have the money you can build a billet block out of any well designed engine and put astronomical boost to it and injectors like fire hoses! I didn’t even mention what the Puerto Ricans and Ozzies are doing with the old Rotary engines! I love it. There IS a replacement for displacement!!!
And all this technology is from the early days! Turbo and super charging was developed in the late 20s and used extensively in fighter planes in the 30s and 40s. It ain’t new but is finally available to the average Joe on a budget. I look foreword to the next few decades to see what’s next. 3 second all electric dragster outrunning top fuel?

[paultrigger]

20:30 this one my favorite. Nothing fancy, just ridiculously fast

[mskehan]

I've seen a bunch of Volvo engine swaps and finally someone used a decent looking Volvo!

[jeffreybrianring]

Some of those really surprised me how fast they were, unbelievable.

[markatkinson]

Going to miss seeing the top fuel drags this summer. Thank for sharing sights from NE Dragway.

[Calbenmike]

New England Dragway...some great Street Nights back in the 90’s there...

[Moparmaga-]

Ah the Parachute, sure sign of a grocery getter

[darengauthier]

That Skyline, got a shut-off that traction control

[Smokey-]

All fun n games till a Typhoon shows up.. 😂😂

[kevintucker]

At 13:20 (cool number!)
T-Type Buick Regal with pretty much the same drive train as the Grand National. 3.8 turbo V6, faster than the corvette in 86 and 87!
