Notes: Gene was at Beeline Dragway near the end of January for the AHRA Winternationals. Over 100 TF cars showed up to attempt to qualify for the 32-car field. His 7.74 qualified #5, but he fouled against Tommy Allen in the opening round. At Pomona, the following week for the NHRA Winternationls, his 7.409/213.76 qualified #17. That set up a first-round meeting with low qualifier Leroy Goldstein. Goleman got out first, and his 7.35/217.90 held on to win over Goldstein's 7.30/211. He got an easy solo in round two and ran 11.31/80.00. In the third round, he took on the always tough Dave Beebe, and Gene improved to 7.27/216.86 to beat Beebe's 7.40/215. He met another tough opponent in the semi-final, Danny Ongais. This was a close race as both ran 7.29 (Gene at 215.30), but Goleman got the "win" light. He faced the Ford-powered car of Connie Kalitta in the final. Kalitta had been running about a half a tenth quicker throughout eliminations. The performance gap increased in the final, where Kalitta's 7.1/218 beat Gene's 7.46/213.76 runner-up effort. The team did not race at Bakersfield, instead choosing to race at Las Vegas for the Stardust National Open. Gene's 7.39/211.76 qualified second to Jim Dunn's 7.36. A 7.45 in the first round beat John Edmunds' late 7.31. The car failed to fire for his second-round race. Runner up to Kalitta at '67 NHRA Winternationals. Gene died in a crash at Union Grove, Wisconsin, on July 2, 1967, when a gust of wind pushed him into the center timing lights. The tail section wasn't on the car at the time, and it was eventually fitted to John Bateman's Atlas Oil Tool Spl. Confirmed 7.23/223 on the day he died at Union Grove. The actual name was Garland Goleman. Often referred to as Gene 'Coleman' in race reports.
