Those starlets are a spectical at the drag races. When they run, everyone stops what they are doing and watches because if there is going to be an accident or an explosion, it will happen when the starlets run

remember these are not daily driven at 40lbs of boost. or driven at all. they are towed to the starting line and towed back around after the race.

they probably put ice on the engine before and after the race.

40lbs of boost is a one shot set up for drag racing.
