Looks like some kind of Nova or something. Obviously the guy has spent alot of money on it building a motor, putting the car together, painting it, then putting the "Warlock" emblem on it, etc.

Under the hood it looks like he stole part of the robot from Lost in Space and used it to make some kinda of a dual ram air setup.

Then he has a nice looking trailer to tow the car around on....

I think the fastest I have ever seen it run is an 8.40 ! LOL.....

Maybe he's a bracket racer, and a lot of you see is there for consistency.

I've seen hi-tech looking bracket cars, that run 13.00 and slower (1/4 mile) all day. It's for consistency, durability, etc..

And it's not my thing, either..

I was lined up with him on my first pass. I thought he was fixing to run off and leave me. I had my finger on the switch all the way down the track waiting for him to catch me. Never had to flip the switch. He ran a 8.65 to my 7.78.

Who was in the other car last night that looked like yours. Ran pretty ocnsitent 6.70's all night. I got a handicapped race with him last night, burned up my msd box 5 feet from the burnout box, had to by pass it and run on a stock coil.

The "Warlock" is almost always the first trailer at the gate. He is one of our most faithful patrons as of lately.

It's hilarious that someone mentioned his robot from "Lost in Space" intake.

I saw that thing in the pits and it looked "other-worldly" and funky to say the least.

My best guess he is going for the longevity of his setup.

Yea, I lost, it didn't quite look that bad from inside my car and from the camera angle I got but the time slip says other wise. He ran a 6.70 to my 7.xx or 7.80 as some like to think.
