Hayden Proffitt II

Hayden Proffitt II is the grandson of legendary hall of fame drag racer Hayden Proffitt, who was a four-time national champion in NHRA and a two-time national champion in AHRA. After nine years on active duty, Hayden II decided it was time for a change as he always wanted to pursue his dream of driving a race car. Of course, when you think of a racecar, you probably aren’t thinking of a 25,000hp twin jet engine 57’ Chevy pickup capable of reaching speeds well over 350MPH. So you can see why this truck is the world’s fastest 57’ Chevy pickup and arguably maybe even the world’s fastest pickup.

Hayden would like to thank all of the military men and women currently serving at home, abroad and our past and present veterans. Because of all that they have sacrificed, I get to do my dream job, and it wouldn’t be achievable without your dedication to our great country. We are proud to say this is a veteran-owned and operated jet vehicle.
