His name is Jim Mills.
We (Bridge Racing) did the turbo system on that car. He has only done a few laps on the car since finishing it but first time out at World Ford Challenge in St. Louis he went 7.88 @ 197 mph on a 325/50/15 M/T Drag Radial weighing 1600 kg. He was not running wheelie bars because they are not allowed by the rules, makes for an interesting show for the fans. His next race is going to be in Bradenton , Florida (January 2007) where he will be going for the Drag Radial mph record. Right now the record is 198mph, someone did go 201 mph but never backed it up. Joey Bridge.
