Notes: Was this a new Woody chassis or a carryover from the previous seasons? What was the actual dragstrip they ran here? Which one was known simply as 'Colorado'? |

Notes: Injected fuel. The car became airborne at Tulsa and flipped over backward. One 1966 report says this car is of the '8.30 variety,' referring to its ETs. The 9/23/66 Drag World said, "the car runs 170." Ran this car with a new body in 1967. - DD (10/29/66 Drag News). Ron broke the new Comet in at Denver, where he made three passes on July 3. The times were 9.69/149.00, 9.76/149.00, and another 9.69 at 149.30. |

Notes: Second funny car effort by these fabled Denver hot rodders. Raced at 1968 OCIR Mfg. Meet. The Kenz and Leslie team was very strong in the Denver area. The team knew how to set up their motors in the high altitude. On April 21, Leslie was in Oklahoma City, where he lasted until the semifinals before his off-pace 8.97/165.09 lost to eventual winner Bob Manion's 8.21/178. The team was at Green Valley in May for an eight-car show. Ron beat Ronnie Runyan's 8.93/163 in the first round, with an 8.22/157.89. Unfortunately, Leslie lost to Dick Harrell in the semifinals. Leslie was one of four FCs at Austin, Texas, on June 15. In the first round, his 8.15 beat Mike Burkhart, who blew a transmission. In his second race, Gene Snow's 8.23/174 fell to the Cougar's 8.12/181.44. These two lined up once again for a final race, as the other two cars had broken. Once again, Ron beat the Charger, but this time his holeshot got the job done, as his 8.07/177.51 beat Snow's quicker 8.04/178. At Castle Rock, Colorado, on July 21, Leslie drove the Cougar to strip records of 8.22/177.86. Ron set a new AHRA Funny Car speed record at Fremont on August 4 at 199.60. He backed it up with a run of 196.06. The Funny Car show featured sixteen cars, and Leslie won, running a best of 7.85 and dropping Charlie Allen in the final. |

Notes: Their second Cougar flopper? | Leslie qualified #15 with an 8.32-Their second Cougar flopper? | Leslie qualified #15 with an 8.32/170.13 at Pomona on February 2 for the NHRA Winternationals. That alone was pretty good since there were 40 cars going for the sixteen spots. A first-round 8.17 beat Pat Foster in Mickey Thompson's Mustang, but in round two, he lost an engine while running Clare Sanders (7.88). At the second annual Manufacturer's Open at OCIR on May 3, Ron qualified #3 on the four-car Ford team with an 8.95/189.06. He won his first race with an 8.52 over Dean Hofhein's Charger. Steve Bovan's 7.89/184 beat his 8.28/182.92 in his second race and in the third race, the Cougar was shut off on the line for a fuel leak. On May 17, the team raced at Irwindale for an eight-car show. Unfortunately, a first-round 7.87/187.88 wasn't enough to get around Johnny Wright's 7.75/193 in the Hellfire. Leslie beat Ed Lenarth and Gas Ronda in the first two rounds at Irwindale on May 30 for another eight-car show. In the final, he met Larry Reyes in the Hawaiian who was on a tear and lost. The following day, May 31, they went to OCIR for the Funny Car 500. A 7.95/188.67 qualified the team #8 in the sixteen-car show. Leslie advanced past the first-round when Lenarth fouled. But they had mechanical issues and were unable to run the second round. Way up in Canada on June 15 in Winnipeg, Ron lost a best of three match race against John Dekker. The two had a rematch on June 29 in Denver at Thunder Road Dragway. This time, Leslie won three straight with an 8.31 best. At the Rocky Mountain Funny Car Championships at Continental Divide on July 20, a first-round 8.59/161.78 beat Gary Gitthens in the first round, but a blown transmission ended their day in the second round. On July 26, at Dallas for an eight-car show, a first-round 7.84/186.72 lost to Mike Burkhart's 7.80/185. The two met again the next day (July 27) at Corpus Christi for a best of three match race. Ron won the first race with a 7.99/181.45, but on the burnout for the second race, something in the Cougar broke so Mike took a solo to even the match. Whatever had broken was bad enough that the Cougar was unable to run in the final race and give Burkhart the win by default. Back at home for a match race against John Dekker on August 4 at Denver, Leslie beat Dekker in all three races with all of his runs bettering the old track record. In the first race, an 8.00/182.54 beat John's 8.11/178. The second race had Ron run an 8.02/184.04 over John's 8.10/176. In the final race, Leslie ran the first seven in an Funny Car at Denver with a 7.98 setting the new track mark, beating Dekker's close 8.01. On October 18, Irwindale held its East/West Championships. Ron ran a first-round 7.84/185.18 over Don Schumacher's ailing Cuda. He advanced past the second round when Terry Hedrick shut off on the line. In the semifinal, a tire-smoking 8.11/181.90 lost to Pat Minick's 7.48/198. At OCIR on November 7 in qualifying for the Manufacturer's Meet, Ron couldn't run better than an 8.68 for the fifth spot on the Ford team. After the rain-out, they returned on November 16. Rich Siroonian's 7.53/196 beat Leslie's 8.18/184.82 in the first round. The car was offered for sale in late November in Drag News. The car came with a share '68 Cougar body and a fully enclosed 28' trailer for $5,500 without engine or transmission. at Pomona on February 2 for the NHRA Winternationals.
