Notes: Greer was the first driver to reset the NHRA flopper record in the decade of the 70s with a 7.30 in his "Tension" mini-Charger which erased Danny Ongais' 7.37 mark in Mickey Thompson's Mustang from 69. - Danny White | The 70 Tension Charger was a Ramchargers car that had been crashed. Dad front-halfed & re-vamped the chassis & mounted the body himself. Later, he & Don Gatliff cut & sectioned the body to make it a Mini-Charger. - Brian Greer | Shirl started the '70 season by winning the Drag News Championships in Orlando on Jan 4. He qualified #1 with an 8.23 and in the first round, he got the "odd-lot" single. In the second round, Bobby Wood broke on the line so Greer's 8.67/130.62 advanced. He got another solo in the semifinals. In the final he set Low ET and Top Speed of the meet with an 8.11/198.48 to beat Larry Arnold. On May 31, Shirl won the NHRA Division 2 race at Gainesville. He soloed in the first round, with an 11.63/129.31. In the semifinals, he advanced with an 8.81/156.25 when Huston Platt's Camaro broke. In the finals, he beat Julius Hughes' 7.96/193 with a 7.58/193.54. In May he was at Warner Robins for a best of three match against Jim Kirby's Camaro. Greer won the match two straight running 7.41 in the first race and a track record 7.37 in the second. |
