Richie Crampton continued to build his Top Fuel experience at Palm Beach International Raceway earlier today, making two tyre spinning runs as the NHRA gets its official pre-season test on in Florida.
Crampton, from Adelaide in South Australia, was announced as the driver of the Morgan Lucas Racing/Geico dragster last year.
Thanks to the wonders of social media, here are a few images of Crampton at work. We wish the best of luck to a man who is out there living the dream!
