Accomplishments:
Car has been pretty much experimental last couple of years so not too many runs. Best run so far is 9:50 @ 135mph (no nitrous).
I have been involved with drag racing since I was a teenager. I have had a 1969 Road Runner "ex Lee Smith's pro-stock" I put in a SB and ran D altered. Raced that car for 6 years.
I had a 1948 Anglia which I literally built from the ground up 3 times. Started with a SB mopar and ended up with a BB injected Chevy. Qualified this car for the Indy Bracket Finals once. Raced this car for 20 years.
I then had a big block RE dragster, naturally aspirated. Raced this car for 2 years and also qualified for the Indy Bracket Finals.
I built a BB Chevy Blown RE dragster which I raced for 4 years in Top Dragster.
In 2002 I began the building of my current dragster.
Shaun has been involved with me in racing beginning as a child. His eldest daughter Kayle raced a junior dragster for 2 years earning the Cordova Dragway Park Novice Junior Championship.
