Notes: Wrecked at Spokane, Washington, on a Friday afternoon checkout pass at the AHRA World Finals at Spokane. At the time, crewchief Herb Parks said on TV that it likely was Don's last ride. Thankfully, that did not come true. Don was racing the NHRA tour this year, too. The AHRA Finals were staged in the week between Brainerd and Indy. NOTE: This photo is of Don's Swamp Rat 30. We need a photo of the car that crashed.
