Notes: Willie was at Irwindale on June 4 for an eight-car show. He qualified #2 with an 8.69 and in the first round, his 8.77/181.08 beat Gary Essman in the "Magic Muffler" car. In the semifinals, an 8.80/181 beat Henry Harrison driving the "Beaver Hunter." This put him in the final against Dale Emery in the "Pure Hell" car. Unfortunately, Bosch fouled away an 8.88/175.06 while Emery got the victory with an 8.92. |

Notes: Willie had quite a time at Pomona for the NHRA Pomona Winternationals. He won the AA/FA class, but had to get out and push the roadster when his competition broke. In the Super Eliminator class, he beat Bill Lawton's Mustang in the first round, with an 8.63, but in round two once again the roadster broke. Fortunately, his competition fouled so Willie got out and pushed it through again. His ETs on the two times he pushed were 144.65 and 143.45! He was unable to run the next round as he had damaged the motor. |

Notes: Wild Willie Borsch with the "Winged Express" ran the first 200, a 200.44, in 1967 or '68 at Lions. — Rod Hynes. | Also, AA/FA class winner '68 NHRA Winternationals ran an unreal 7.29. This would have qualified Willie #32 for Top Fuel. He ran Super Eliminator, lost the first-round. | Finally, the NHRA AA/FA record at the end of 1968 was held by Dale Emery in the Pure Hell at 7.68/208.80, so Willie's time was pretty incredible. | Borsch started his season at Irwindale on January 14 for an eight-car race. He qualified #2 with an 8.17/185.65 and an easy 8.63/175.78 advanced in round one, but in the semifinals, the roadster wouldn't keep its front wheels on the ground, and even though he still legged it though to 8.27/184.80, he still lost to Butch Pipins' 8.17/190. Willie was at OCIR for a Funny Car vs. Fuel Altered race. All cars made three runs. Borsch ran 7.85/189.96 in his first race, but he lost to a quick-leaving Frank Pisano at 7.93/182. In his second race, his out-of-shape 8.17/187.50 lost to Steve Bovan's 7.85/194. He ran his worst time in his final race, losing to Fred Goeske's 8.12/180 with an 8.87/131.38. |

Notes: Borsch totaled his car at Michigan, and a week later, in July, he showed up at LaPlace in a new Logghe chassis car for a match race against the Burkholder brothers. One thing missing from the car at this race was the roll bar-mounted airfoil. In the first race, Willy eased the car to a bogging 10.31 that lost to Harry's 7.65. An 8.03 in the second race also lost to the brothers' 7.57, and in the third race, Willie got his new ride into the sevens with a 7.77, but still lost to Burkholder's 7.53. Qualified fourth at Ontario 11/21/70 at 7.313, although Mike Sullivan led qualifying in his similar car at 7.120. |

Notes: Back in 68 & 69, we first started with a 427 Chev injected on a 100 percent best at 8.67 at 177. We had a lot of fun with it & won a lot with it, but OCR told us not to come back without a blower on the car. - Pop Bradford | Randy was at OCIR on May 18 for a Funny Car vs. Fuel Altered show. All ten cars were to run three rounds of racing. Bradford soloed with a 9.63/117.49 when his opponent Cecil Yother broke in the first round. In the second round, his 9.08/144.46 lost to Fred Goeske's 8.07/180. In the final race, a 9.19/161.00 fell to Gene Conway's 8.43/172. |

Notes: Thurmond started his season at Irwindale on January 14. He qualified #3 with an 8.36/189.59. Bill was at Irwindale on August 17 for a altered vs FC's race. In the first race, his 8.22/178.21 beat Dee Keaton who shut off. In his second race, his 8.74/188.28 defeated Steve Bovan's 8.37/192. In the final race, Bill's 8.03/195.22 lost to Willie Borsch's 7.92/180. | 360 CI 354 on 70% Nitro. By 1968 the early ('29-'32) Ford roadster body style had long passed "dinosaur" status in fuel altered racing. The Thurmond Bros. long-running throwback was the last competitive example of its breed, winning a 16-car fuel altered show at Irwindale in 1968. Times were 7.89 at 193.12 mph. - RT |
