The track record at Denver was 205 mph by Don Garlits until the first run of Paul Gommi's twin supercharged dragster ran 220 mph. The NHRA immediately banned twin superchargers

Gommi made his top fueler in pieces for 2 reasons, it could fit in his garage, and it allowed him to quickly swap out a back section if it blew up
