I got my NHRA license at 17 years old in a 13 sec car.
There was a guy at the same track that was 15 years old driving a hyrogen peroxide powered rocket car. He ran one pass in the 1/4 mile and went 4.71 et. This was in 1977. Needless to say he did not get his license because he only made one pass.
He had a 17in wheel on one side of the front and a 16in on the other.
He had enough fuel to run for 4 seconds before the rocket turned off.
He passed out from the G-force and the car went right after the finish line because of the wheels.
