Eddie Hill with his Ariel Atom 2

Eddie Hill with his Atom 2 at the Hallett Motor Racing Circuit in Jennings, OK, near Tulsa. Eddie was the 1993 NHRA Top Fuel Champion, also the first driver into the 4 second zone, and won 11 National Championships in Blown Fuel Hydro boat racing. If you aren't familiar with an Atom 2, this baby can rip 0 to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds AND turn a corner with the best of them. Eddie has knocked off a few Ferrari's and a Porsche 917 with this car.

    He's a great guy, Stuart. We got to visit him & his wife Ercie on our Texas trip and they are about the finest people you'll ever meet. He sure likes this car, and that's with a Ford GT in the same garage!

    3 of my friends will be racing there in 2 weeks and I'll have to miss it. :(
