    Being that you didn't reference a photo I'll assume you meant this one.

    Yes, I think that is Captain Jack McClure on the kart. He had two Turbonique rocket engines and ultimately ran 200 mph with a best ET of 5.89. In the mid ‘60’s he was running 150 mph.

    I never made it down the the Bikini Beach Drag Strip, I heard a guy named "Big Drag" ran the place.
