In Top Fuel Dragster, Team Erbacher races with the fastest, most powerful and loudest cars on the planet. In his 8000 horsepower dragster, Urs accelerates from 0 to 160 kph/ 100 mph in less than 1 second, pulling up to 5G’s. On a good day he can complete the "quarter mile" (400 metre) race track in less than 4.8 seconds! But drag racing is expensive and back in Switzerland, Urs' Fat Attack Custom Bike building shop finances the team's racing dreams. Here Urs and his fellow racers build some of Europe's most celebrated custom bikes. Urs does his best to run a tight workshop, but with the distractions of racing, raising sponsorship for the team's American dream and family pressures, nothing ever goes quite to plan.
