Notes: Sox started his season at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals. He qualified #4 with a 7.98/173.07, becoming the fourth member of the Holley Seven-Second Club. He lasted until the semifinals before eventual winner Rickie Smith's 7.96/173 beat his 8.04/173. At Rockingham, for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships, Sox ran 7.86/174.90 to qualify #3. Again, he lasted until the semifinals, but this time a broken driveshaft yoke stopped him in his race against Don Nicholson. The next IHRA event was the Springnationals at Bristol. Sox ran 7.92/173.07 to qualify #2 just a tick behind Smith's 7.91. Ronnie improved to a 7.91 in the first round, and he set Low ET in round two with a 7.89 that beat Mike Kennedy. But for the third race in a row, he lost in the semis. This time his late 7.99 lost to Warren Johnson's 8.10. Everything clicked at Norwalk for the IHRA World Nationals. He qualified #1 with a 7.92; he won his semifinal race over Keith Albritton, and in the final, he scored the victory with a 7.91/175 that dumped Johnson's 7.99/167. Early in July, he was at Connecticut for an eight-car show. He set Low ET in the first round, with an 8.07 but fouled against Don Campanello on the run. He made it into the final at the IHRA Northern Nationals but had to settle for the runner-up spot as Johnson got the best of him there. These two would meet again in the final at Bristol for the IHRA Summernationals. Sox qualified #2 with a 7.94/173.41 while Smith was low at 7.93/176. Johnson followed these two with an 8.08/171. Ronnie ran 7.97 and 8.01/173 to get into the semifinals. A semifinal 8.06 advanced when Harold Denton fouled. Sox picked it back up to a 7.990/172.41 victory over Johnson's 8.11/168. The team's next stop was at Budds Creek for the Mountain Motor Nationals. The Dean Thompson Mustang was sporting a 612 cubic inch Boss engine for this event. A power failure had knocked out the timing clocks, so there were no ETs recorded. Sox ran well, and he reached the semifinals to run against Smith. Unfortunately, the lights didn't count down on Sox's side of the tree, and a red light came on. Management offered a rerun between the two cars, but Sox declined. Shortly after that, he was at Brainerd for the Quaker State Championships. He reached the final only to foul away an 8.01 while Denton picked up the trophy with an 8.05. It was then back to Bristol for the IHRA US Open Championships. Sox knocked them dead as he qualified #1 with an unheard of 7.79/176.49. He backed it up for a new IHRA record. Sox then dominated the race. An opening round 7.91/172.08 beat William Paris, a round two 7.87/173.47 beat Smith, and in the semifinals, he beat Denton. In another WJ vs. Sox final, his 7.89/174.08 put away Johnson's Monte Carlo at 8.25/161. Confirmed low qualifier in Atlanta Mountain Motor Challenge at 7.88/173.74 on 10/10/81, but tossed rods in a first-round 7.97/155.97 win and was done for the day. Ronnie finished number 1 in IHRA in 1981. |

Notes: Don started the '81 season at the AHRA Winternationals. He qualified #1 with an 8.23. A first-round 8.32 beat Jerry Haas' nitrous Monza at 8.61. In the semifinals, Lee Hunter got out of shape and "Dyno" advanced to the final against Pat Musi. Despite a quicker 8.23/166, Don had to settle for runner-up to Musi's 8.26/167. He really shook up the troops at Darlington on March 22 for the IHRA Winternationals when he qualified #1 with a 7.81/176 (Low ET and Top Speed). He ran the same numbers again in the first round, over Keith Albritten's 8.26/167. Unfortunately for Don, he had a nap in the second round and his 7.86/175 lost to Rickie Smith's 8.07/171. In April, it was like the good ol' days when "Dyno Don" met "Grumpy Jenkins" with Ray Allen driving at a best of three match race a Connecticut. Nicholson beat Allen two straight with a track record 7.87/176.17 before Allen came back to win the last race with a 7.96/169. Nicholson flexed his muscle again at the IHRA Pro-Am at Rockingham on May 3. He qualified #1 with a 7.82 (Low ET) at 176.81 and went on to win over a motor blowing Smith in the final with an off pace 7.90/175.09. He then retired for a while, selling the car to Harold Denton who would retain Don's help for the next couple of races. It should be noted that the car was runner-up at the next IHRA event, the Springnationals, where they lost the clutch in the final. Nicholson was the third member of the Holley Seven-Second club with his 7.81 at Darlington 3/81. - Danny White |

Notes: "My partner back then was a neighbor of mine by the name of Keith Fowler, who was a big Country music promoter at the time - he had Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty, and the Oak Ridge Boys under contract. He had originally put his business name "Country Shindig" on our Super Modified car, and when we went to Pro Stock, he put the Oak Ridge Boys on the new car. They were huge stars back then, and they even came out to one of our races, which really helped us promote ourselves. We ran Loretta Lynn's name on the car for a while, too, which was a real popular deal. - Rickie Smith (courtesy Competitionplus.com) | It took a couple of years, but by 1980, Rickie Smith had his Boss 429 combination worked out. Way back in '78, he had opened some eyes when he set Low ET at Bristol for the IHRA Springnationals with an 8.25. He fell off to a losing 8.72 in the first round, of eliminations, and many called it a fluke. In '80, he was low qualifier at quite a few IHRA races. He was also the first to run a 7-second ET under IHRA rules with a 7.99 run in the first round, of competition at Rockingham for the Pro-Am Championships. He improved even more in '81. He started the season at a four-car show in Englishtown in March. Rickie ran times of 8.09/169.81 and 7.99/172.08 to beat Frank Iaconio and Pat Musi. He faced Ray Allen, who was driving Bill Jenkins' Camaro in the final, and a holeshot aided 7.98/172.08 beat Allen's 7.91/171 for the victory. He won the Atmore IHRA series race with a final round 5.00/139.53 over William Parris' 5.33/133. On March 15, he was at Piedmont for a best-of-three-match race against Mike Kennedy. Rickie made a warm-up run and reset the track record to 5.11. He then ran 5.13 in the first race to beat Kennedy's 5.23, and another 5.11 beat the Camaro's 5.19 to win the match two straight. At IHRA's season-opening Winternationals at Darlington, Smith ran 8.07/172.41 to qualify #5 in the sixteen-car field. The top four cars in qualifying were all in the sevens. Smith joined that group with an opening-round 7.99/171 that beat Gary Duckworth. He started to earn his nickname "Tricky Rickie" with a holeshot 8.07/171 in the second round that beat low qualifier Don Nicholson's 7.86/175. His 7.96/173 beat Ronnie Sox's 8.04/173 in Dean Thompson's new Mustang in the semifinals. That put him into the final against Roy Hill. The Mopar driver's times were nowhere near what Smith was running, and it showed in the final where Smith saved his best for last and ran 7.91/174 to beat Hill's 8.44/134. The next IHRA event was the Pro-Am Championships at Rockingham, held early in May. Smith ran 7.85/176.81 to qualify #2 behind Nicholson's 7.82/176. These two would end up meeting in the final. Rickie had a tough race against Warren Johnson in the semifinals, where Smith's 7.96/173.74 beat WJ's 8.05/173 in Jerome Bradford's Monte Carlo. Rickie lost a motor in the final and slowed to an 8.50/119.02 in a runner-up finish to Nicholson's 7.90/175. Two weeks after that, he was at Bristol for the IHRA Springnationals. A 7.91/173.74 qualified #1 and a first-round 7.99 advanced. He beat Chuck Sneed in round two with a 7.94 to move into the semifinals. His competition there was Harold Denton, who had just bought Nicholson's Mustang. Not only had he acquired the car, but "Dyno Don" also was there helping him get used to the car. Denton pulled a huge holeshot that saw his 8.11 beat Smith's quicker 8.03. At the IHRA World Nationals, Rickie lost to WJ in the semifinals. |

The two had a close race with Musi's 8.26/167.5 (Top Speed) beating the "Dyno" man's quicker 8.23/166. In March, Pat was at the Englishtown Opener. The show featured four mountain motored cars. Musi beat Ray Allen in Bill Jenkins' Camaro in his first race with an 8.06/174.08. In his second race, he ran an 8.24 that lost to Rickie Smith's 7.99. Musi was the fifth member of the Holley Seven-Second club with his 7.98 at Darlington 3/81. |

Notes: Warren debuted Jerome Bradford's Monte Carlo at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals on March 22. He qualified #2 with a 7.93/171. He picked up to a first-round 7.87/172 over Sam Carroll's 8.17/168. A 7.91 took care of Paul Gant in round two, and in the semifinal, he beat Roy Hill's 8.17/167 with a 7.92/172. Unfortunately for Johnson, when the car was weighed after his semifinal run, the car was found to be too light. He was disqualified, and Hill was reinstated into the final. At the second IHRA event, the Pro-Am Nationals at Rockingham, he qualified #4. He made it into the semifinal before losing to Rickie Smith's 7.96/173 with an 8.05/173.74. On May 17, Warren grabbed a big win at the IHRA Springnationals at Bristol. He qualified #4 with an 8.01/173.41 behind the seven-second Mustangs of Smith, Ronnie Sox, and Harold Denton. Johnson dipped into the sevens with a first-round 7.97. In the second round, a 7.99 beat Hill's 8.24. Sox was caught napping in the semifinal, and Johnson's 8.10 beat Ronnie's 7.99. Denton's former Don Nicholson Mustang lost the clutch in the final, and Warren motored to a 7.99/171.42 victory. In June, he was runner-up to Smith at the IHRA World Nationals and then traveled to St. Louis for the AHRA Gateway Nationals. He qualified #1 with Low ET and Top Speed at 7.93/172.09. No one else ran quicker than 8.10. He beat Jim Feurer's Zephyr in the first round, with an 8.03/170.13. In the semifinal, an 8.13/169.18 beat Chuck Aronson. A final round 8.37/167 gave Warren the win over Gary Duckworth's 8.61/159. Another win came at the IHRA Northern Nationals, where he stopped Sox in the final. At Bristol for the IHRA Summernationals, Warren used an 8.08/171.42 to qualify #3. He ran 8.09, 8.23, and 8.09 to make the final against Sox. Ronnie reversed the finish of the previous IHRA race by downing WJ's 8.11/168.85 with a 7.99/172. Sox kept the heat on Johnson by once again beating WJ in the final at the IHRA US Open, where his final round 7.89/174 thumped the Monte Carlo's shut off 8.25/161.87. Warren was running 8.0's there while Ronnie was running 7.8's. Warren also won the Atlanta Mountain Motor Challenge in October. He qualified #2 with 7.91/174 and won a critical semifinal race against Smith. Smith ran a quicker 7.92 but lost to WJ's 7.94. Warren beat Gary Brown in the final for the title. The car was too radical for NHRA tech. The 7.93 at Gateway was the first AHRA seven. Won IHRA Spring Nationals at Bristol with a 7.999 at 171.42. Also ran 7.93 at AHRA Gateway Nats 81 and 7.90/174.20 in Atlanta Mountain Motor Challenge race on 10/10/81 (won over surprise finalist Gary Brown). |

Notes: Raced a new ‘Oak Ridge Boys Ford Fairmont' at the Atlanta Raceway Mountain Motor Challenge on 10/10/81. Lost to a Warren Johnson holeshot in the semis, 7.94 to Rickie's 7.92. | Rickie Smith was having a great season with his Mustang II and in August, he was at Richmond for a best of three match race against Chuck Sneed. On one of his passes, the car blew a rear tire, got out of shape, and slid into Sneed's Camaro. The Mustang then barrel rolled down the track. The car was history, but Smith was unhurt. He needed a car to stay in the IHRA points race and Jon Kaase recommended he get in contact Wally Balchunas. Wally had a B/FX Fairmont. Kaase was impressed enough with the car, so Smith made a deal to use it to finish out the IHRA season. Smith installed the Mustang's Kaase-built 588 Boss powertrain into the Fairmont. The car needed a different hood as the car had been using a 351 Cleveland engine before and a quick call to Bob Glidden got him a new hood. The debut with the car came at Rockingham on September 13 for the IHRA US Open. In the first round, only two cars ran in the sevens, Smith (7.93/173.74) and Sox (7.91/172). But these two would meet in the second round where eventual winner Sox’s 7.87 beat Smith's out of shape 8.97. |

Notes: After "Dyno Don" Nicholson dominated the IHRA Pro-Am Championships with 7.8 times, he decided it was a good time to sell his racing operation. Harold Denton stepped in and bought it. Just two weeks later, he was at Bristol along with Nicholson, who was there to help out for the IHRA Springnationals. Denton ran a strong 7.99/172.41 to qualify #3, and an opening-round 8.04 advanced. This made Denton the sixth member of the Holley Seven-Second club. Another 8.04 in round two beat Keith Albritten's 8.23. He showed that he could drive in the semifinals, running an 8.11 to beat Rickie Smith's quicker 8.03. This put him into the final against Warren Johnson driving Jerome Bradford's Monte Carlo. Unfortunately, Denton's clutch went away, and he had to settle for the runner-up spot. He competed at Connecticut's Mountain Motor Nationals in July but got out of shape against Roy Hill in the first round and lost. Early in August, Denton was back at Bristol for the IHRA Summernationals. Just as NHRA had its four major competitors, Bob Glidden, Lee Shepherd, Frank Iaconio, and WJ, who won all the races, IHRA had four "top dogs" in '81. They were Smith, Ronnie Sox, WJ, and Denton. They qualified in that order at Bristol, and in the second round, Harold ran 8.09/171 to advance. He fouled against eventual winner Sox in the semifinal, where his 8.22 would have been hard-pressed to keep pace with Ronnie's 8.06. Shortly after that, he was at Maryland International for the Mountain Motor Nationals. Twenty-three cars attempted to qualify for the sixteen-car field, and while he qualified easily, he lost early in eliminations. In September, he was at Rockingham for the IHRA U.S. Open. He lasted until the semifinal before losing to Sox again. |

Notes: Sam was at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals in March. He qualified for the sixteen-car field, but his 8.17/168 in the first round, lost to Warren Johnson's 7.87/172. His best IHRA showing came at Bristol for the Summernationals. There he survived until the semifinals. He got a bit of a break when Rickie Smith broke a transmission on his burnout in round two advancing Sam's 8.47/160.71. He faced Warren Johnson in the semifinal race and he shut down with problems to a 9.85 while Warren ran 8.09 to win. In the year long points battle, Carroll finished #8 in the standings. |

Notes: This Camaro was driven by a 20-year old in his debut AHRA event at the 1981 GrandNats at Dragway 42 after taking a few licks in IHRA first. He won the event over Jerry Haas.

Sneed qualified No. 2 (8.21/167) and defeated Harold Martin (8.44/164 to 9.03/151), Jerry Janota (8.23/164 to 8.57/154) and finally Jerry Haas for the title. 8.25/165 to 8.25/163. See Draglist Story of the Day file for story of Chuck Sneed, 20 years after his win. |

Notes: Animal Jim's legendary Mercury Zephyr Pro Stock was built by Chassis Craft (Greg Kaplin & Woody Mays) in 1979. This was the car that made Animal Jim a major match race star. From 1979 to 1990, it ran in every sanction, circuit, and mode possible. After a 1980 crash, the car was rebuilt and updated in 1981. Jim went back to his trademark Hugger Orange instead of black. (He had crashed a white car and then a black car, so he concluded neutral colors crashed more than orange ones.) Anyway, Zeke and Jim were together again. Originally powered by small block Clevelands, in 1981 Zeke became the first "legal" AHRA (American Hot Rod Association) Nitrous small block Pro Stock which was sponsored by NOS (Nitrous Oxide Systems, Inc.) This combination was considered "Unlimited" and ran with Mountain Motored cars. Jim ran the listed 418-inch motor and also a 363-inch Nitrous motor, which ran 8.30/168 at AHRA Dragway 42. |
