Hello DragHeads,

When I look at old photos of british Funny Cars / Altereds up to the recent "Showtime" Fuel FC,

I notice the name of the DJB company in quite prominent locations.

A quick search brought no website, a company, but nothing else.

So what is DJB about ? I assume that someone here knows and would like to know, too,

but only if you don´t have to shoot me afterwards.

They're an engineering firm based in Bedfordshire, not far from Santa Pod. Above and beyond that though I don't know much else.

Thanks to the early riser, I did not look for the eng and DJB got a lot of results.

So it´s what we call a "machine shed" in Germany, just what you need for sponsorship in Drag Racing,

hope their support for the sport continues.
