Big John's Funny Car, the Barracuda
was driven by Rich Siroonian

The 1969 Barracuda was constructed of 4130 chrome-moly steel tubing by Ron Scrima of Exhibition Engineering and had a wheelbase of 120 inches.  He also did the car's suspension, steering and roll cage.  The body was one-piece made of fiberglass.

It had a Supercharged 1958 392 Chrysler which cranked about 1500 horsepower.  It ran the quarter-mile in the mid-seven seconds range at over 190 MPH, consistently quicker than the established NHRA National Record at that time.
