Luke, the Allen family had a pair of Junior Fuel cars driven by Jeb's older brothers Les and Ed. That is Jeb in the cockpit in the white T shirt when the car is pushed away from tech. Not sure why the car was classed as A/ in the video as both were legal junior fuel which was usually C/FD at NHRA events.

Maybe the person doing the interview is as knowable as some of the current day corespondents?
