I guess since I know some NHRA drivers I can disagree. Try going 0 to 300 MPH in 3 seconds and managing to keep the car straight. Those dudes are in about 1000x better shape than even you. No easy task. The G's on take off and when the chute blow are enough to put most people straight into the hospital. And NHRA guys don't even have to really "streer" all that much.

I kind of agree though. Not really athletes so much as bad ass humans. Much like Astronauts. All said though you have to be in shape and have your shit together for real.
