Notes: Pomona had 58 FC's show up to qualify for the sixteen spots available for the NHRA Winternationals. Al qualified #11 on the slippery track with a 7.60/201.79. To emphasize how horrible track conditions were, Bergler ran 7.73 and 8.00/201.34 to win his first two rounds and reach the semifinals. There his ailing 9.10 lost to Kenny Bernstein's 7.46 in Ray Alley's Charger. The NHRA Gatornationals didn't go so well. Al won the best appearing car, but the Vega burned to the ground against Pat Foster in the Setzer Vega in the semifinals. Al qualified #14 with a 6.599/225.56 and beat Pete Hill's 6.84/187 in round one, with a 6.536/220.04 and Ron Colson in the "Chi-Town Hustler" in round two with a 6.570/214.79. In the semifinal race, his engine let go, and the car went up in flames. Al was OK, but the same could not be said about the car. Al eventually got it fixed, and he was at National Trail for the second NHRA Division Three race. Unfortunately, he failed to qualify for the eight-car show. He was back at National Trail in June for the NHRA Springnationals but could not qualify once again. (We didn't see Al on the DNQ list. We need to validate). At Milan for the NHRA Division 3 race, he qualified #1. In the opening round of eliminations, his 6.76/218 beat Paul Radici's 6.88/211. He made an easy solo in the semifinal when Jackie Price's Vega broke. In the final, his 6.73/220 finished runner-up to Twig Zeigler's 6.51/225. Al was at Englishtown on July 4 for its Funny Car Spectacular event. He got out of shape in the first round, and lost to Don Schumacher. He later came back out for a consolation race against "Jungle Jim" Liberman. Bergler ran 6.58/218.97 to win their race. His next stop was at Martin, Michigan, for an eight-car show. His off-pace 7.32/77.98 in the opening round lost to Tom Hoover's 6.72/209. He was back at Englishtown later in July for the NHRA Summernationals. A 6.601/221.56 qualified #13, and in the opening round, his 6.77/210.77 beat Ed McCulloch's 6.78/207. Unfortunately, his 6.84/184.04 lost to Jim Paoli's 6.55/213 in round two. He next went to Tri-City for the fourth NHRA Division Three race. In round one, he ran an easy 7.02 to beat Jackie Price's 7.20. But in the semifinals, he got out of shape against Paul Radici, and Al's car slid off the track. He went back to Martin, Michigan, in August for the PHR Championships but failed to qualify. Al was one of dozens of DNQs at Indy with a 6.70/218.44 best. Shortly after that (September 8), he was at Beech Bend for the NHRA Division Three final. A 6.62 qualified #2 behind Billy Meyer's 6.54. These two would eventually meet in the final. In round one, Bergler's 6.50/205 beat Stan Bowman's 7.32/187. He then beat Paul Day in the semifinal to set up a date with Meyer in the final. Al smoked the tires hard in their final race while Billy set a great 6.35/209 to win. He qualified for the World Finals at Amarillo and won round one over Ray Motes, 6.86/194.38 to 7.09/210. He broke against Frank Hall in round two. That was Al's last NHRA national event of the year. Al also ran 6.55/215.31 at Maple Grove. |

Notes: Set the national record at 5.900 at 1981 Mile High nationals (altitude factored from a 6.124). Ran first five with a 5.993 at Gainesville 3/15/81 to become the 7th member of the Cragar Five Second Funny Car Club. We need to confirm that this was a Mike Kase car. | Kenny started the season well by winning the AHRA Winternationals at Tucson on January 18. He qualified #2 with a 6.69/196, and in the first round, he picked up to a 6.56/211 to beat Tom Hoover's 6.85/209. In the semifinals, he ran 6.56 again at 213 to beat a tire-smoking Don Prudhomme. In the final, he unleashed Low ET (traction was poor) 6.54/214 to take the win over low qualifier Gordie Bonin's 6.68/202. Kenny barely made the field at Pomona on February 1 for the NHRA Winternationals, qualifying #15. He lost to Denny Savage in the first round. That should have been it for his Pomona story, but in the semifinals, his Texas neighbors, the "Blue Max" team, had blown off its roof on a 245 mph run that beat Prudhomme. They had no spare body, so Bernstein offered up his spare. The "Max" team cut the roof off of his car and grafted it onto theirs. All that effort, and they lost to Billy Meyer in the final. On March 8, Kenny was at Famoso for the Bakersfield March Meet. A 6.426/226.13 qualified #8 in the sixteen-car field. Unfortunately, the race was postponed one week due to rain, and he could not return the following week. At the NHRA Gatornationals, he qualified #5 with a 6.014/245.90. He beat Ron Colson's 6.06/233 in the "Hawaiian" in the first round, with a 5.993/238.72. He advanced past Prudhomme in round two when the "Snake" got crossed up. In the semifinal, he lost to Bonin. A week later (March 22), he was in the winner's circle at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals. He set Low ET at 6.18 and beat Shirl Greer and Dale Pulde to reach the final. In the final, he ran the team he helped at Pomona, the Raymond Beadle-driven "Blue Max." Kenny took the victory with a 6.45/212. On April 5, he was at Green Valley Raceway for the NHRA Western Regional Opener. It was an eight-car show, and Kenny's 6.27/233.76 qualified #2. He set Low ET in the first round, with a 6.15/240.00 that beat Brian Conway. In the semifinals, a 6.45/209.79 lost to Beadle's 6.25/228. The NHRA Southern Nationals at Atlanta also had an eight-car field. It was a tough show to make with a 6.16 "bump." A 6.09/241.28 qualified Bernstein #3. He made his way to the finals by beating Meyer in the first round, with a 6.08/242.58, and in the semifinals, Prudhomme broke against him. In the final, he faced Tripp Shumake in Johnny Loper's Arrow. It was a close race, but Tripp's 6.07/233 beat Kenny's 6.08/243.90 (Top Speed). May 3 found the "Budweiser King" team at Rockingham for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships. He qualified #2 with a 6.03 and won his first-round race over Paul Smith with a 6.14/231.36. In the semifinal, his 6.28/226.70 lost to Meyer's 6.26/213.77. OCIR hosted the NHRA Western Regional on May 9. Things didn't go well there. It was an eight-car show with a soft "bump" of only 6.47. The "Budweiser King" failed to qualify. After that, it was off to Bristol for the IHRA Springnationals. A 6.17/245.90 (Top Speed) qualified #5 in the eight-car field. He faced low qualifier Beadle in the first round, smoked the tires, and lost. Kenny ended May with a runner-up finish to Meyer at the IHRA World Nationals. He did come away with Low ET at 5.97. At the NHRA Springnationals, Kenny qualified #5 with a 6.12/239.36. This set up an interesting first-round race with his eventual crew chief, Dale Armstrong. Bernstein won that first-round race with a 6.18/238, but he didn't get much further when his round two 6.21/233.16 lost to Beadle's 6.15/235. Kenny did really well in the thin air of Denver for the NHRA Mile-High Nationals. He qualified #1 with a 6.17/217.91; in the first round, his 6.24/227.84 beat Shumake's 6.28/228. He set Low ET and Top Speed in the semifinals with a 6.12/238.72, beating John Collins' 6.49/189. In the final, he ran the "Blue Max." Bernstein won a 6.21/234.37 over Beadle's 6.32/202. The "Budweiser King" really opened some eyes at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, where Kenny pushed the car to a 5.860 at 237.46 in qualifying. Of course, that was Low ET and a new track record. He beat Smith in round two with a 6.08/238.72, while a tire-smoking 6.38/225.56 advanced in round two when Frank Hawley broke in the "Chi-Town Hustler." Unfortunately, a semifinal 6.24/233.76 lost to eventual winner Prudhomme's 6.19/230. He lost to Prudhomme again the following week at Dragway 42 for the AHRA Grandnationals. Only this time, it was in the final. The Budweiser team then returned to Bristol for the IHRA Summernationals in early August. Kenny qualified #3 with a 6.14, and then in the first round, his off-pace 6.70 lost to Smith's 6.50. But Paul's Citation broke while getting the win and could not run the semifinals, so Kenny got back into the show. A 6.30/232.55 beat Meyer, who smoked the tires. He ran the "Blue Max" in the final, and Beadle won, running 6.20/238 to Bernstein's 6.30/221.67. A week later (August 9), he was in Canada for the NHRA Grandnationals. Kenny's 6.07/241.93 qualified #4 in the eight-car field. He beat Tom Anderson and Beadle to reach the final, where he faced Prudhomme again. This time, Bernstein got out of shape and shut off to 14.01/55.14, giving the "Snake" the win at 7.18. The next stop was at Martin, Michigan, for the PHR Championships. It was another eight-car show, and things didn't look so good when he qualified on the "bump" with a 6.32. His 6.35/225.80 beat Hawley's 6.39/217 in the opening round. In the semifinals, he advanced when Gary Burgin broke. The final featured Bernstein versus Armstrong, but Dale had broken in his semifinal win, so Bernstein soloed for the victory. A week later (August 23), these two would meet again in the final at the NHRA Eastern Regional at Beech Bend. They qualified 1/2, with Armstrong's 6.10/223 leading and Bernstein chasing with a 6.18/222.22. A first-round 6.35/219.51 beat Fuzz Miller's 6.63/190. Kenny's 6.19/217.39 in the semifinals beat John Pott's 6.27/217. That put the two into the final, where Kenny improved to 6.14/234.98 to take the victory over Armstrong's 6.24/235. Then came the US Nationals at Indianapolis. Bernstein ran an impressive 247.25 while qualifying in the dreaded #9 spot. This set up a first-round pairing with low qualifier Beadle. They had a good race, but Raymond's 6.02/246 won over Kenny's 6.09/241.28. Beadle would go on to win the race. Bristol was next on the calendar for the IHRA US Open. Bernstein's track record 5.98 at 242.58 qualified #1 in the eight-car show. In the first round, Burgin smoked the tires, and Kenny's 6.10/220.04 advanced. In the semifinals, he had a blower explode that ripped the roof and windshield off the car. His 6.36/197.80 lost to eventual winner Pott's 6.07/234 in Larry Coogle's "Sting." NHRA held its final Western Regional race at Houston on September 20. Only five cars showed, and Kenny's 13-second time qualified last. In the first round, he and Shumake had a tire smoker that saw his 6.75/185.95 beat Tripp's slightly quicker 6.74/213. In the semifinals, he set Low ET with a 6.25/218.44 over Miller's right there at 6.28/229. This put the "Budweiser King" into another final. But this time, a tire-smoking 10.80/79.00 lost to Burgin's 6.49/220. The year was winding down, and Bernstein wanted to move up in the NHRA points standings. Going into the Golden Gate Nationals, he was second in points with 6,070 behind Beadle's 7,062. Prudhomme followed these two with 5,772 points. But Fremont was not good to the points chasers. Twenty-five cars were attempting to qualify for the 16-car field. While Beadle qualified and made it into the semifinals, neither Bernstein nor Prudhomme made the show! Kenny was the fifth alternate with a 6.22/207.85 best. On his last qualifying attempt, he blew a motor. That pretty much ended his hopes in the points chase. Things went even worse at the season-ending NHRA World Finals at OCIR. Bernstein could do no better than the sixth alternate with a 6.27/188.28 best. Prudhomme snuck past him in points, and Bernstein finished third for the year. The NHRA season might have ended, but a whole new chapter in the Bernstein story was about to begin. It started at OCIR on November 7 for the Manufacturer's Meet. For the first time, Armstrong came on board as crew chief. While the results were not immediately felt, it was the start of a super team. Bernstein won his first race with a 6.56/211 over Dave Condit, and in his second race, he smoked the tires and lost to Mike Dunn. The track was not at its best, as Low ET was 5.98 by Billy Meyer. Formerly listed a 250 mph run at an AHRA national event. We need confirmation of that and using the Indy 247.25 until we get it. |
