Need help identifying this drag racer.
« on: December 27, 2024, 12:18:07 PM »
Can anyone help me identify this racer? Those numbers were quite impressive for a turbo Honda.

Initially i thought it was Ken Rooks but I'm not certain right now.

Surely one of you old heads know exactly who this may be.

 I feel like this has been here before but didn't turn up the answer yet.
