Notes: Tommy McNeely's "Sad Sack" Falcon was remembered by many sixties drag racing fans for its wild wheelstanding antics as well as its performance. The young McNeely had previously raced 409 Chevrolets with Dickie Harrell before switching to a Ford. The '65 Falcon was built by Hubert Platt in a basement and had to put together outside once it was finished. The car debuted at Irwindale with Platt driving, then McNeely took over the driving. Tommy raced mostly in match bash match races throughout 1966. McNeely was known to put on a wheelstanding show when the car was ailing. But the car usually ran well, hitting the numbers shown.
