Notes: Huge wheelstand: I was racing John Collins in McEwen's car first-round. They sat behind the line for a very long time while I was staged waiting for them. By the time they staged, my motor was so hot and lean that it was idling like a Cadillac. As soon as I touched the pedal, it went up all the way to the parachutes. Other than flattening the front wheels and knocking off the oil filter, it did little damage. The car went on to run a 6.52 at Seattle the next month and beat McCulloch at the 64-car show placing 4th quickest in the 32 fuel car show. As Bill Doner told us, "It sure is ugly, but it is fast. You can come back next year." - Dave Benjamin | 2 or 3 weeks later, on August 5th, he was at SIR 64, idling the 417 in the pits for what seemed like 10 minutes or more. (The body was off.) 4th quickest of the night at 6.52. - Joe Moore

Notes: Another "character" from the 70s, Dave "Nasty" Benjamin ran altereds and his early Funny Car efforts from his chassis shop in Albuquerque, NM. Benjamin alternated between racing Funny Cars and AA/FAs during the 70s. first funny car effort was Corvette in 72. This car, photographed at the 78 AHRA Winternationals, was destroyed on its maiden outing. Benjamin later took over the cockpit of Nelson Lengle's "Sno-Town Shaker" entry to finish out the 78 season then fielded his own floppers through the 80s and 90s. Benjamin was one of the sport's unheralded innovators introducing 3 valve heads, one of the first dual fuel pump system (80), etc. "Nasty" took his last funny car ride as an owner at the 1999 AHRA World Finals at Spokane. is currently doing occasional driving chores in the "Impulse" Funny Car.

Notes: Dave built the car. He was severely burned at Ontario and missed the 1979 season. | Benjamin tells the story online of his fire and severe burns at the '78 Finals, caused by Nelson's stock, unbalanced, crank with a crack in it. No raffles or Benefit events, he said. He was at the '89 Funny Car Opener at SIR. The backs of his arms looked like medium-cooked bacon. - Joe Moore

Notes: First dual-fuel pump car. Went 23 races without changing it. Dave moved to Washington in September 1980. In April, Benjamin was at Pueblo Motorsports Park for the NHRA Division 5 Opener. Only four cars showed. He beat Dan Lexa in the first round, with a 6.96/205.30 to move into the final against Rob Williams. Unfortunately, he lost a blower, and even though Williams broke on the run, Rob coasted across the finish line first.

Notes: Ran revolutionary 3-valve heads. | Dave did not qualify at Pomona for the Winternationals when he hit the wall in qualifying. Benjamin returned to the NHRA tour at Bandimere for the NHRA Mile High Nationals at the end of July. Only sixteen-cars showed so his 8.59/104.69 held up for the "bump” spot. He lost to Jack Holsey in round one, 5.994/228.54 to 6.595/212.46. Dave had trouble in qualifying at Phoenix for the NHRA Fallnationals, where a best of 8.246/117.80 failed to qualify. At Pomona for the NHRA World Finals, his times improved to 6.146/226.01, but he joined 20 other funny car racers in failing to bump Gary Densham’s 5.851 out of the last spot in the field.
