Dennis Young purchased the car
from Les Winter in 1988, it soon became evident to Dennis what he
had purchased. The chassis was not able to comply with racing safety
specs so the car was rebuilt from the front motor plate back. The
car now had a alky injected Small Block Chevy, it was the first time
Scorcher did not have a Hemi powerplant. Dennis began racing the car
from 1990 in the super tough Competition Eliminator category.
Dennis' best performance was at the 1994 Winternationals where he
scored a runner-up with best numbers of 7.74secs @ 174mph. In 1995
George Bukureshliev joined the team and began driving the car with
his own engine running a best of 8.01 secs @ 169 mph. Scorcher
last competed in May 2000 at a Nostalgia event at Melbourne's Calder
Park. |
