I presume this is Santa Pod Raceway in England? Don't know what the car is but it appears to have a Chrysler hemi in it. |

Yes, in the same scene you can see the whole name in the background: Santa Pod Raceway. The driver is John Bonham, drummer of Led Zeppelin. He wears the Helmet and the Overall of Clive Skilton. -- Last edit: 2008-03-04 22:40:20 |

It appears to be 807 top fuel dragster belonging to Clive Skilton Whitwell Hertfordshire UK (from 1971-77). So "Revolution III" 392 Chrysler 71 slingshot dragster I guess. |

Thanks for the name of the car owner! I reviewed several times the scene to find out this information. I suspected something with Oliver ..... Thanks again! |

No problem. I live close to Santa Pod Raceway, and in the opposite direction, Whitwell Hertfordshire. I know Whitwell very well as a small village with about five pubs, a couple of which I visited often in the past. Although until today I had never heard of Clive Skilton, who apparently lives in the USA and owns a Chrysler dealership. More about Clive Skilton here (about halfway down the page)... http://www.eurodragster.com/news/features/hall_of_fame/default.asp -- Last edit: 2008-03-04 23:13:45 |
