Notes: The well-named "Funny Car" was one of the first funny cars to race in Texas. Tom McCroan owned and raced the car out of his car lot in Garland, Texas. The match bash Mopar featured an injected 426 Hemi on nitro. The "Funny Car" was a regular at Green Valley and in match races across Texas. The strange thing about the "Funny Car" was number of drivers who drove it. Tom McCroan drove the car, as did his wife Gladys McCroan. Raefel Shields and Brent Musgrave also drove "The Funny Car." The Mopar ran high nines at best on the cow pasture tracks of Texas. (Photo courtesy Flyin' Phil Elliott). |
