Why are the prop blades so short ? High RPM prop design ?

This gives a new meaning to lawn dart :?

All the best to the racing team....5000HP on 2 V8's ??

What is the life expectancy of a top fueler drag racer engine ? Serious question here. I am curious what fuel they will use to get 2500HP a pop.

The chopper is actually a movie prop from the Ah-nold Schwarzenneger flick "The 6th Day."
