pointless..blower/juice or turbo/juice no need for both...

The only possible reason for both blower/turbo would be that the turbo could be set to spool up lower and get the power band going to allow the charger to take over..but that would be on a street set-up..not a drag set-up

well the carbs are a bit small for a drag setup (only 750 cfm, you'd think it would want a bit more than that)

there are lots of cars like that. have way more than enough and dont even make what a single power adder can make most of the time. remember that one Bel Aire with 8 turbos. only made 800 horsepower. looked cool as hell but not very practical or useful. mostly cause its unique.
