Notes: Armstrong followed the path least traveled by relying on a strong-running 352" small block Chevy for power. He claimed to never deviate from a diet of 20 percent nitro (in alky). The combo was good enough to set low qualifying time (8.33) for funnies at the AHRA Championship at Lions in late July 1966. - RT | Armstrong ran this car three different ways in 1966: injected fuel, blown fuel coupe, and blown fuel as a roadster, pictured here. This is the car he ran in 1965. In 1967, he stretched the now roofless Chevy II. In 1968, the car was run by Ron Lorenz and John Wright. - DD | On November 27, at the Lions East-West Meet, Dale put Frank Pedregon's Chrysler Hemi in the car. He ran 9.32 in the opening round to beat Eddie Marcek's Mustang, and he got out of shape in round two, where he lost to Ronnie Runyan.

Notes: Dale was at Irwindale for the New Year's Funny Car race on January 2, but he failed to qualify for the eight-car show. He went to Lions on January 8, and he now had Frank Pedregon's blown Hemi in the car where the small-block Chevy had resided. He was not in competition with anyone as there were only a few cars making check-out passes. After running 9.03/162.45, Armstrong came back out for another pass but ended up sending two rods through the block of Frank's engine. On March 19, Carlsbad had 15 cars trying to make its eight-car Funny Car show. Dale qualified #7 with an 8.89, but in the first round, he lost a transmission and could not race against Butch Leal. | Armstrong swapped his blown 352" small block Chev for a semi-hemi in '67. Glass nose also replaced previous year's stock-trimmed front quarter. (Unknown if the entire roadster shell was replaced with the one-piece unit pictured.) - RT

Notes: A 5/10/74 National Dragster says this car ran 7.50s in 1969. Confirmed times are listed. Fiberglass Trends body. Dale qualified #8 out of forty cars attempting to make sixteen spots with a 7.89 at Irwindale's New Year's Day race. But in the first round, the car was ailing. He lost to a 10.38 by Clyde Morgan. At Beeline in Jan for the AHRA Winternationals, he lost to Dick Harrell's 7.83 in the first round. Thirty-five cars showed to do battle for eight spots at the second OCIR All-Pro on February 9, and Armstrong's 7.69/187.88 qualified #5, but again he lost early. Another first-round loss came on February 22 at Lions when Randy Walls beat him. A month later, on March 22, he failed to qualify at Lions when 22 cars showed for the eight spots. On April 26, he qualified for a sixteen-car show at Irwindale, but a first-round 8.20/191 by Ed Lenarth stopped his 8.29/170.77. On May 3 at OCIR's second annual Manufacturer's Funny Car Open, Gas Ronda's 8.29/176 beat Dale in his first race, and an 8.22/182.18 won his second race when Gordon Mineo fouled away a 7.92/182. He was at Lions for an eight-car show on May 24, and his 7.85 qualified on the "bump." This was pretty good, considering 19 cars were attempting to qualify. He slowed to an 8.11/183.67 loss to eventual winner Dave Beebe in the first round. After the loss, he came back out to race Hank Clark in the Rebel SST in a consolation race. He beat the AMC with an 8.46/179.28. On June 8 at Seattle for the Travelon's Fuel Championships, he again lost in the first round, to Mike Miller's 8.17.

Notes: Dale had a bit of bad luck at OCIR on May 2 for the Big Four Championships. He was lined up against Don Hampton for his first-round race when the car caught fire. He got out OK and the fire was quickly put out, but he was out of competition for the day. He raced at the fourth AHRA Grand American at Frontier International Raceway where he qualified with an 8.03. A first-round 7.93/188.17 lost to John Dekker's 7.73/191. He was back at OCIR on May 30 for the Funny Car 500, but he fouled away a 7.74 in the first round, against Wendell Shipman. Dale won over an eight-car field at the Tom Ferraro benefit race at Irwindale on June 6. He beat Bob Smith in the first round, with a 7.85/184.80, and in the semifinals he ran an easy single. In the final, he set Low ET of the meet with a 7.73/187.50 to beat Hampton for the victory. At Lions on June 13 for the All-American series race, he qualified for the eight-car show and in round one, beat Smith's 7.95/163 in "Bad Bascomb's Ghost" with a 174.75. Unfortunately, his Challenger came up ailing in the semifinals and he could only coax a 10.01 out of it that lost to Gene Conway's 7.27/196. At the OCIR Anniversary Race on August 15, Dale won his first-round race with a 7.90/170.45, but the car burst into flames in the traps. The Challenger was extensively damaged, but Dale walked away with only slight shoulder burns.

Notes: Dale debuted a unique alcohol/nitrous oxide combination in his Satellite on January 1 at Sacramento. The car used nitrous as well as a small percentage of nitro. He was there for a best-of-three-match race against Tommy Ivo. Armstrong lost all three races, recording a best of 6.72/206 compared to Ivo, who ran a best of 6.22/214 in winning the match. Dale ran 6.50/214.79 at the PRO event at Beeline on 1/14/77. Confirmed 6.48 per Bret Kepner. | In a December '77 Drag News interview, AA/Dale drew a picture of how part of the problem was that the injector nozzles were pointed directly at each other. The Surfers (or maybe anybody who used) Hilborns had offset nozzles, with pictures. - Joe Moore

Near the end of April, he was at Baton Rouge for the NHRA Cajun Nationals. It was a tough eight-car field, and drivers such as Raymond Beadle, Don Prudhomme, and Dale Pulde failed to make it. Dale did, however, run 6.16/234.98 for the #7 spot. Unfortunately, he lost to Ron Colson in the "Hawaiian" in the first round. He failed to qualify at the NHRA Springnationals, running a 6.30/218.34 best that was good for the third alternate. He didn't run at Denver for the NHRA Mile-High Nationals, but he was at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, where he qualified #5 with a 6.05/232. He ran his best NHRA national event times of the year with a 6.049/238.72 defeat of Tom McEwen but lost the second round to Raymond Beadle in the "Blue Max."

Dale set Low ET in qualifying #1 with a 6.08. He beat Paul Smith in the "Sting" in the first round, with a 6.21/227.84, and he ran an easy single in the semifinals to go into the final against Billy Meyer.

Notes: Dale lost an engine during qualifying at Columbus for the NHRA Springnationals. The resulting fire burned up the car. But rain postponed the race a week, and Dale had time to repair it for eliminations. Lost this body in a fire at Columbus race. Qualified it #13 at 6.253/229.59 and lost in round one, to Kenny Bernstein, 6.18/238.72 to 6.238/226.70. Not sure when the fire occurred. on the first-round loss? Dale ran 6.175 for the first alternate at Atlanta. Was that in the Challenger or the Omni? (The Omni ran at Gainesville).

Notes: Dale failed to qualify at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals. He was one of 45 funny cars to try to qualify. Armstrong ran really well at Famoso on March 8 for the Bakersfield March Meet. He qualified #2 with a 6.251/236.22. A first-round 6.27/231.95 beat Dave Condit's 6.45/228. In round two, a consistent 6.25 beat Gary Densham, who shut off, and in the semifinals, he improved to a 6.17/242.58 (Top Speed) over Craig Epperly, who broke. In the final, he lost to Dale Pulde, but it was still a strong showing. From there, he went to Gainesville for the NHRA Gatornationals. He ran his first-ever "five," a 5.981/241.93, to qualify #4 and to become the sixth member of the Cragar Five Second Funny Car Club. A first-round 6.047/234.37 took out John Force, but he hurt some parts and could not show for his second-round match against Pulde. Dale was the first alternate at NHRA Atlanta with a 6.175 (speed not reported). In May, he was at Englishtown for the NHRA Eastern Regional, and while he failed to reach the finals, he did get Top Speed with a 234.99. On June 21, he was at National Trail for the NHRA Springnationals. A 6.253/229.59 qualified #13 in the field. He lost to future employer Kenny Bernstein in the first round, 6.18/238 to 6.238/226.70. He made it into the final at the next NHRA race, the Summernationals at Englishtown. He qualified #4 with a 5.995/231.95. In the first round, opponent Rick Johnson broke, and Dale ran an easy 6.235/209.78 to advance. In round two, a 6.148/229.59 beat Fuzz Miller's 6.32/224. In the semifinal, a 6.180/231.36 beat a tire-smoking Mike Dunn. In the final, he had lane choice over Don Prudhomme, but Armstrong blew an engine, and his 7.082/125.52 finished runner-up to the "Snake's" 6.07/241. At the NHRA Grandnationals in August, Dale qualified #3 in the eight-car show with a 6.059/236.22. Tim Grose fouled against him in the first round, and Armstrong advanced with a 6.256/231.36. He lost to Dom Prudhomme in the semifinals, 6.33/227 to a 10-second shutoff. Dale qualified #5 with a 6.22 in the eight-car show at the PHR Championships. He beat a fouling Mike Dunn with a 6.08/231.36 and Tom Hoover in the semis with a 6.19/225.56. So again, Bernstein and Armstrong ran against one another, this time in the final. Unfortunately, Dale hurt his engine in his semifinal win and could not run, so Kenny soloed for the win. Dale was the third alternate at Indy with a 6.124/232.88. He qualified #15 at Fremont for the Golden Gate Nationals at 6.134/233.16 but shut off against Craig Epperly in round one. He had an excellent World Finals performance, however. Dale qualified #1 at 5.939/238.72. In found one, he ran 5.937/230.17 to be Al Segrini's 9.94 shutoff. He set Low ET of the Meet in round two with a 5.891/235.60 over Raymond Beadle, who shut off to a 12.31. Gary Burgin ended Dale's day in the semis with a 6.05/234 when Dale broke. The 5.891 was one of the first 5.80 passes in the sport and garnered plenty of notoriety.

Notes: Kenny Bernstein had a pinched back nerve and could not drive at OCIR. Armstrong filled in. He warmed up with a 6.12. In the first round, he faced Mert Littlefield. Mert got out of shape and crossed the centerline in front of Armstrong. Dale shut down to 11.01. In the second round, his 6.18/227.84 lost to Tom McEwen's 6.11/242. | Dale took a test pass Orange County International Raceway, Irvine, CA, 4/09/83. He got a bit squirrely in the lights and shut off to a 6.12 at 209. See the Video Link. Thanks to Bret Kepner for the tip. | AA/Dale's last go behind the wheel at the Son of 64FCs at OCIR. Two trial passes that afternoon, one out of shape off the line, the next a 6.12, I think. 6.18 that night/Burgess. Check out Dwight Guild's outstanding 'County videos on Youtube. I'll see if I can get the link. - Joe Moore

Notes: The "Super Cuda" was one of several funny cars from the Memphis area in the sixties. Pat Collins built the car in 1968 and teamed up with Bill Taylor to race the beautiful candy apple red Plymouth. The Coleman and Taylor team had raced the "Kingfish" funny car. Coleman sold the car and name to T.B. Smallwood after the 1968 season. The "Super Cuda" proved to be just as good as the old car. Logghe Stamping Company built the chassis and the car was powered by a 426 Chrysler Hemi on 55% Nitro backed by a Coleman and Taylor built transmission, of course. Larry Reyes, Larry Arnold, and Sidney Foster all drove the "Super Cuda" to countless wins. Reyes had the best times in the car with a 7.53 at 198.46, while Arnold ran 7.76 at 193, and Foster ran 7.76 at 196.69. In 1968, Reyes won the King of Kings Race at Capitol Raceway, the AHRA Drag World Finals in Wichita, and the Super Stock Invitational in Detroit. (Stats Courtesy Dennis Doubleday.

Notes: One of just three Torino funny car bodies made. Terry Ivey and Phil Bonner had the other two. Arnold drove the car at the AHRA Winternationals, but lost to Leonard Hughes in the first round. On February 23, he was at Courtland for a best of three match race against Bobby Wood. In the first race, Wood fouled and in the second, Arnold crossed the centerline. The deciding race was won by Larry in convincing fashion when he ran a track record 7.51. - RH
