Notes: Dave was at York U.S.30 on September 24, where three cars ran. Bruce Larson and Bud Faubel were also there. Strickler made a 9.74/153.58 warm-up pass. In his first race, his 9.41/154.90 beat Faubel's Dodge. Larson broke, so Bud and Dave raced a second time, with the Dodge taking the win. Strickler dumped a 70% load of nitro in the tank for the first time and came back out and ran a solo pass of 9.09/155.17. On October 9, he was at Atco Dragway for a best-of-three-match race against Tom Smith. Dave's Corvette dipped into the eights for the first time and won all three races with an 8.93/159 best. |

Notes: Strickler was in Miami on January 22 for an eight-car show. Vernon Jones' Mustang failed to fire in the opening round, so Dave made an easy pass to advance. In the semifinal, his 9.63/139.10 lost to eventual winner Phil Bonner's 9.16/157. He came back out later and ran 9.15/161.57 in a consolation race. Dave ran a match race against Al Joniec's gas-burning Mustang on March 19 at Cecil County. Al got a half-second handicap but still lost two straight to the Corvette's 9.21/156.78 and 9.10/156.52 times. He was at Cecil County on April 9 to face "Dyno" Don Nicholson for a best of three. Don was on a rampage at this time, so Strickler was definitely the underdog. In the first race, Nicholson reset his track record to 8.27 at 166.97 while Dave fouled at 9.67/131." Dyno" lowered the track record even further with an 8.17/172.08 in the second race that beat Dave's 8.83/161.00. It was decided that Strickler would get a half-second handicap to even things up in the last race. It paid off as Dave ran a career-best (to this point) 8.73/162.74 to beat the Comet's 8.24/166. On April 29, the Chevys of Bruce Larson and Strickler squared off in a best of three match at New York. Bruce won the first race with an 8.76/155 over Dave's 8.91/152.32, but in the second race, the Corvette's 8.89/157.84 beat the Chevelle's 8.94/148 to tie the match. In the last race, Dave ran well, hitting 8.78/159.85, but it wasn't enough as Larson got the victory with an 8.66/160. Cecil County held its Factory Showdown race on May 10, and Strickler ran well there. In the first round, he got out on Tommy Grove, and his 8.63/163.33 held on to win over Grove's much better 8.47/167. There were two major crashes at the race, one involving Nicholson and the other with Arnie Beswick. Due to the late hour, the event was called, and Roger Lindamood and Strickler split the first-place money. Dave was at New York National on May 14 for a best of three match against Larry Arnold's "Penetration" Charger. Strickler had no problem with the Dodge, winning three straight with times of 8.77, 8.70, and 8.74. His best speed was 163.04. Aquasco held a ten car show on May 21, but Dave lost a motor in the first round, advancing "Jungle" Jim Liberman. He was back at York on May 27 for a match with "Miss STP," Paula Murphy. He warmed up with an 8.82/159.85. In the first race, he fouled, and his 8.99/148 lost to Paula, who blew a rear end and coasted to the finish line. Del Heinelt filled in for her in the second race, and Dave beat him with an 8.85/156.52, but he lost a transmission on the run and was done for the day. |

Notes: Jungle ran the car in 69, Gene Altizer ran it in 70 & 71, Nick Boninfante ran it in 72 & 73. The driver for Nick Boninfante in 72 and 73 was Bruce Thompson. I'm pretty sure the car was still a Chevy II in 72, but there were a number of Chevy IIs running, so Boninfante aded a Pontiac front end to it for 73 and named it the Bushwacker. - Dennis Doubleday & Shane Boyungs |

Notes: Never worked - too high & light, but beautiful. Doug faced Don Nicholson in a best of three match race on May 22 at Martin, Michigan's US 131. Don won two straight over the Nova with Thorley running a best of 9.72/142. The little Nova did better on June 4 against Dick Jesse's GTO at York's US 30. It was a best of five match and in the first race Doug ran 9.21/146.87 over Jesse who broke a rear axle. In the second race, a 10.06/138.03 beat the "Unswitchable's" 10.24/143. The third race was a close one with the Pontiac's 10.22/136 beat Doug's 10.24/137.40. Thorley fouled in the fourth race and Jessie went into a wheelstand and crossed the center line. The fifth race was never run due to a curfew. The following day (June 5) saw Thorley at Atco for a best of three match against Phil Bonner. This was not a good match for Doug. He shut off in the first race due to a wheelstand. In the second race his 9.63/149 lost to Bonner's 9.29/148 and Phil won the third race as well. |

Notes: The "Ramchargers" were a famed drag racing team that helped develop the funny car class in the Sixties and well into the Seventies. The Ramchargers were a group of Chrysler engineers that raced on the side using the best of Chrysler engineering. The team ran a series of race cars, including an altered '49 Plymouth ("High & Mighty") to a plethora of stocks and super stockers. The Ramchargers group included Dick Maxwell, Tom Hoover, Phil Goulet, Don Westerdale, Jim Thornton, and many others. This bunch began the early development of the funny car. The Ramchargers were one of the first teams to have the 2% tweaked-wheelbase super stockers, having developed a 1964-car with these alterations. That 2% experiment led to the next stage of the radical altered wheelbase funny cars. After building a test mule Plymouth with 10" front-15" rear wheelbase relocation, the Ramchargers acquired this A990 from Dodge. It was acid-dipped at AeroChem in California and assembled with a minor, NHRA-legal 2% wheelbase relocation for the Winter national events. Mike Buckel drove it to a win at the AHRA event in Beeline Dragway, Arizona. Thornton drove the following NHRA weekend at Pomona without success against the Ford FX entries. It was converted to full AWB by the team itself that spring, reappearing for the first time on May 1/1965, at York against Sox & Martin, where it clocked a 9.83 at 139 in its first appearance (and defeated Sox, who had clocked the first 9-second time just a week earlier). The car was campaigned extensively that year, culminating in an unreal 8.910 at 148.66 at Cecil County on August 7/1965, running 50% fuel and the team's match-race 472" stroker engine. This was why the car did not compete at the Super Stock Nationals at York US 30 that same day. The 8.91 time is backed up by 9.19/9.20 performances two weeks prior at Cecil County with the same combination on 30% nitro. As a result, this Coronet in the photo (shown at Aquasco, Md., in early 1966 when nitro usage had resulted in shorter Hilborn stacks) is said to be one of the first funny cars into the eights, if not the first-ever. Jim Thornton drove the car to a great 8.925/150.75 at Cecil County in 1965. The Coronet was feared by many, and rightly so. They ran the car into the 1966 season, selling it to Bobby Harrop that year when their new Dart was running. After running most of 1966 and repainting it, Harrop reportedly crashed and destroyed it under the Mike Hammer Enterprises banner. Authority Mike Guffey states this is true. The date and location of the accident are not verified. An 8/19/66 Drag Times suggests this car ran 157.00 mph in 1965 in Detroit. However, when they were selling the car early in 1966, their for sale ad lists the best speed as 150.5 mph. It is possible the times in the resale ad were noted based on the team's 426" package and not the record-setting (and unknown at the time) 472" match race engine hand-built by engineer Tom Hoover.

Notes: Jim drove this car at a match race against Bill Lawton at Connecticut on April 10. Unfortunately, he lost three straight to the Mustang. In the first race, his 9.71/143.31 lost to Bill's 9.07/153. In the second race, Jim fouled with a 9.77/143.08 losing to Lawton's 9.15/153. The last race saw Jim lose again with a 9.77/143.63 to Bill's 9.00/155. Another match race was run against Don Nicholson on April 24 in Atlanta. Don won the first race, but Jim came back to win the second race with a 9.03/163.53. In the final deciding race, Nicholson won with an 8.68/166. Thornton didn't do much better at Lakeland on April 30 against the "Seaton Shaker." He lost the match two straight to the Chevelle. These match races were run using their old Coronet. The final time the Coronet was run was at a match race against Hubert Platt at Aquasco on May 15. Thornton won the match three straight running times of 9.75/137 over Platt's 10.42. A 9.26/156 took the second race and a final 9.27/157 gave him the match victory. |
