Clint Neff new design A/ED

Charles Stewart · 09-02-2022, 02:32 PM

It will be interesting to have some details of the new A/ED of Clint Neff.
Look like the front nose design of a Formula one car at first view, on NHRA TV. Chassis and body look very innovative from the foot protection bars to the front of this dragster.

Here a view of the nose.

I’d be curious if the front end is some sort of monocoque design….wish Joe Costello would do one of his interviews, if Neff is interested in sharing of course.

Matt Albright in Ohio was running a similar design that was built by Spitzer almost 20 years ago.

VERY INTERESTING.. I've heard of Harry Clack, and his innovations and accomplishments in the dragster world.. I'd be interested to know if he may have worked with, or for, Spitzer back then.. Clack does build fast stuff..

Good afternoon guys! 2 different concepts going on between the two with a large degree of management and adjustability. Come by at Dallas National and have a look. As talented as that group is..No Spitzer influences here.

Thank you Clack for the better quality photo and the added details...

Joe Costello said he is going to do a "Bits from the Pits" feature on the car this weekend.

I include here a photo of this dragster by Mr. Tom Derry from the facebook site competition eliminator then and now.
Enjoy,
