Tema

Una celebración de alto octanaje de las **carreras de aceleración**, específicamente la clase *Top Fuel*. El título, **'1,320''**, se refiere a la longitud de un cuarto de milla en pies, la distancia estándar para una carrera de aceleración. La letra capta la intensa adrenalina, la potencia ensordecedora (**'8,000 caballos se encienden'**) y la energía explosiva de un coche que funciona con **nitrometano**.

Letra

Grinding my teeth White knuckles grasp at the wheel I rush from an avalanche of adrenaline It's all that I feel As quick as a bolt of lightning A rocket ride in a bucket seat It doesn't get any better than this It just feeds my need for speed Supercharged, strapped in and screaming Fire spitting from the pipes A burnout by the flame throwing fury 8,000 horses ignite Full throttle Hit the ground running With a tank full of nitro And its 1,320' to go to the finish line My hands hold tight A firebreathing stampede I fall into a trance Hold my breath till the light turns green In a cloud of nitro methane Melting rubber, I say my prayers Man and machine accelerate And I vanish in thin air Supercharged, strapped in and screaming Fire spitting from the pipes A burnout by the flame throwing fury 8,000 horses ignite Full throttle Hit the ground running With a tank full of nitro And its 1,320' to go to the finish line
