Pennzoil Competition Eliminator driver
Bill Kent always has a smile on his
face, and for good reason. The native
Texan's bright yellow Pennzoil Dragster
has proven to be one of the fastest
and the quickest-responding hot rod
in its class in a sport where the lowest
elapsed time and the highest registered
speed are the true marks of the person
behind the wheel. Kent finished 1998
in his Pennzoil C-Dragster with a pass
of 7.096 seconds at 189.79 mph. It
was the first C-Dragster run of less
than 7.10 seconds ever recorded, and
both the time and speed would have
reset the C-Dragster records once again.
The 2000 season found Kent competing
in 6 national events and ending the
year 26th in the national points standings.
Kent competed in three NHRA Competition
Eliminator events in 2003 and finished
21st in the series’ final point
standings.
