Next-gen Force driver Austin Prock gets seat time in Alcohol Dragster
Austin Prock, the son of John Force Racing crew chief Jimmy Prock, has been busy building an Alcohol Funny Car with an eye on making his competitive debut next season. In the meantime, he also decided it was a good idea to get some seat time in an Alcohol Dragster
John Force Racing development driver Austin Prock, son of JFR crew chief Jimmy Prock, got some seat time in a Top Alcohol Dragster owned by Anthony Dicero during a team test session recently in Indianapolis.
“We got an opportunity to get him some seat time,” Force said. “And (Dicero) wanted to test his car, so we did. The kid looked really good.”
Prock, whose development will continue with a test later this season at Frank Hawley’s drag racing school, earned his Top Alcohol Dragster license, making a best pass of 5.478 seconds at 260.11 mph.
