Nah, it's an Aussie jigger.

Here is the current thread on it:
http://www.aulro.com/afvb/general-chat/56647-s1-dragster-no-more.html

and the news article on the crash. He hit the wall at between 120-140km/h both were not wearing helmets. End result, 1 broken Landy and 1 broken leg.

Don't worry he is building another one. The second one was started last year.
