How does someone obtain their Top Fuel and Funny Car licenses?

May be...

I'm not 100% sure on the whole approval method, but one way is to bring your own drag car to the track, usually during a test n tune session or whenever and NHRA (or IHRA) officials will watch you as you make several passes, each one a little longer until you make a full run. I'm also pretty sure you can get your license through a drag racing school like Frank Hawley.

Here is the link that will tell you.

Couple of ways of doing it. Have lots of money and have lots of money. No one is going to just you jump into a top fuel car. They probably will not even let you jump right into an alcohol car and for good reason. You can get killed pretty quickly.
Not sure if you have to but from what I have seen most people get licensed in alcohol first. Like the previous poster said, Frank Hawley's school is good or you can go to Doug Foley's school. I know to get an alcohol license it will set you back about $20,000.avventure bellissime
