Andy Jensen, the man who last year turned the Pro Modified world upside-down before ADRL officials banned his single turbo 1967 Chevrolet Camaro from the Pro Nitrous class, is back this year with something even more radical, something he’ll debut at this week’s Rock Batteries Spring Blast.

The Nescopeck, Pa., driver returns this week to Steve Earwood’s Rockingham Dragway, where he was runner-up in last fall’s Dragstock V event, with a turbocharged small block in the engine compartment of his early model Camaro, a revamped entry in which he hopes this year to challenge for the ADRL’s Pro Extreme title.

After Jensen lowered the Pro Nitrous national record to 3.87 at Rockingham last year, his twin turbo was legislated out of the ADRL’s nitrous class.  The question this year is will the same thing occur now that Jensen has swapped categories and combinations?

“I think the turbo small block is going to be very popular with the fans,” Earwood said, “and with Andy shaking out the combination this week, we get the first hard look at what it can do.  It’s pretty exciting for our Spring Blast to have been designated the official spring training for the ADRL and attracting cars like this one is the payoff.”
