Scott Faggotter is a master boat builder driven by "an addictive chase to win." From his foundation at Firebird Marine in the 90s to his leadership in the Victorian Drag Boat Club, Scott isn't just a check-book racer, he's a technical expert who knows every inch of a hull. In 2024, he resurrected the legendary Problem Child, assembling a dream team to rebuild the 10,000 HP monster. Now running on 90% Nitromethane, the boat is primed to replicate its world-record 3.61-second runs.
It takes a rare breed to strap into a 10,000 horsepower hydroplane. Chris Irick isn't just the technical mastermind who rebuilt Problem Child, he is the pilot who tames it. Already known for piloting "The Final Outlaw" (Pro Outlaw/Blown Gas Flat), Chris has spent years mastering the fine line between control and chaos. Now, he brings that battle-hardened experience to the ultimate test: piloting the world's most notorious Top Fuel Hydro to new records.
