No Corey isn't driving---the car belongs to a guy south of town named Nick Pan(something Greek) we met him thru aone of our kart customers---we machined a block for him last year and have been doing some titanium welding on things like his wheelie bars, exhaust headers, etc.
And we just honed the block to freshen it up while it was down for crankshaft thrust repair. engine makes 1379hp at 9700 rpm ---it goes thru the lights at a little over 10200, but shows a lot of slippage in the trans/converter, over a 1000rpm different than driveshaft rpm.
Car goes 7.08 , record is 7.00 and we want lower record to the Sixes----sounds like top fuel back in the later 60s
His crew was just a couple of his old time friends that weren't really up to speed on drag racing at this level and we have been crewing for him--the car has a data colletion, but they didn't do a lot with it, same as weather data---carbs came with these jets, why change them?????
