Notes: Dale Pulde might have only been a teenager when he began racing funny cars, but he was a very capable teenager. Some say Pulde was and is the best driver ever. The Charlie Wilson owned "Vicious Too" 1967 Camaro was Dale's second funny car ride. The flip top Camaro replaced the mean "Vicious Vette." Vicious Too was a mid pack runner with Pulde driving, usually hitting the mid to low eights. The car was powered by a 427 Chevrolet Rat engine backed a B&M automatic transmission. Cragar sponsored the Camaro, and the car ran the heavy Cragar S/ST wheels instead of the standard Halibrands of the day. Pulde drove the car in 1968 and 1969, running a best of 7.91 at 184.

Info from Bill Duke, and James Ibusuki). | Early in the year (February 2), Pulde was at Lions to break in a new engine for the Camaro. Unfortunately, he lost his transmission on the line on his first run. Dale attempted to qualify at Lions on March 22. But with 22 cars trying to make the eight-car field, he failed to make the show.
