Another team that has shown a marked improvement is that of the High Speed Special. Veteran driver Bill Dunlap and the crew have made great changes over the winter and their work paid large dividends as the car qualified number two at a 5.71/232.11.  (Paul Schmitz photo)

New drivers in new places at the March Meet for 2015 as Dusty Green, who wheeled the “Circuit Breaker” fueler, now is in the seat of Steve Harwood’s “Nitro Hemi”.

The other driver who is not new to nitro but new to nostalgia front-motored top fuel cars is journeyman driver Jeff Arend.  He was at the wheel of the John Cox’s Cheetah IV.  Cox’s normal driver, his son Terry, was off sprint car racing and John wanted to play so he called Arend.
