Notes: West was at Fremont in the first week of June for an eight-car show. He ran a career-best (to this point) 7.14/196.07 in the first round to beat Art McLaren in the "Pure Heaven." In the semi-final, he backed it up with a 7.15/193.96, but it was no match for eventual winner Dave Hough's 6.74/216. He lost in semis of 1976 Tucson Dragway Fuel Altered Nationals 9/76. West qualified 10th at Tucson Dragway AA/FA Nationals with a 7.69. | Plan A name came from Johnny and Jim West saying they would race a fuel altered, funny car, and top fuel car - Plan A, B, and C. - Johnny West, Draglist LIVE, 2/3/20 |

Notes: Johnny perfected doing a burnout & dry hop on alky and then staging and running on nitro. | I was a huge draw with this setup. It helped me save money, but mostly helped promoters book me as the little guy taking on the big guys. It led to a lot of bookings. Plan A name came from Johnny and Jim West saying they would race a fuel altered, funny car, and top fuel car - Plan A, B, and C. - Johnny West, Draglist LIVE, 2/3/20 |

Notes: Johnny perfected doing a burnout & dry hop on alky and then staging and running on nitro. | I was a huge draw with this setup. It helped me save money, but mostly helped promoters book me as the little guy taking on the big guys. It led to a lot of bookings. Plan A name came from Johnny and Jim West saying they would race a fuel altered, funny car, and top fuel car - Plan A, B, and C. - Johnny West, Draglist LIVE, 2/3/20 |

Notes: West was at Tucson in Jan for the AHRA Winternationals. A 6.65 qualified #5 in the eight-car field, and he improved to 6.55/225.50 in the first round. Unfortunately, Don Prudhomme was in the other lane and ran 6.43 for the win. | Johnny perfected doing a burnout & dry hop on alky and then staging and running on nitro. | I was a huge draw with this setup.

Notes: West ran a 6.61 to qualify #7 at Tucson for the AHRA Winternationals. An off-pace 7.06 in the first round, lost to Dick LaHaie. The team then traveled to Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, where a best of 6.065/222.77 left them outside the field as the sixth alternate. Where did the team run 230.76 mph? | The motor belonged to Johnny West and was pulled out of the funny car when they had made enough match race money to go big show racing with the dragster! - Johnny West, Draglist LIVE, 2/3/20 |

Notes: Photo from 83 AHRA Grand Nationals, Dragway 42. West started the season at the AHRA Winternationals where a 6.98 qualified third. He lost to Tom McEwen in the first round. A 6.73 qualified fourth at the AHRA Springnationals on May 2 at Tulsa, but again McEwen did him in, this time in the semifinal where a 7.63 dropped to Tom's 6.18 (Low ET). At the AHRA Gateway Nationals at St. Louis, a 6.43/212.27 qualified seventh, but Mike Dunn beat him with a 6.14 in the first round. On August 1 he competed at the AHRA Summernationals at Kansas City where he qualified sixth with a 6.30 at only 183.29, but he lost a blower belt in the first round, next to Don Prudhomme. At the AHRA World Finals, he beat a tire-smoking Henry Harrison in the first round, with a 6.04/233.76 before losing to John Force in the semifinals when his 6.29 paled in comparison to Force's 5.79. | Johnny perfected doing a burnout & dry hop on alky and then staging and running on nitro. | I was a huge draw with this setup. It helped me save money, but mostly helped promoters book me as the little guy taking on the big guys. It led to a lot of bookings.

Notes: Ran 5.90/224.43 in round one, win and 6.19/234.37 round two win at ADRA Spokane. Ran 6.082/231.75 at ADRA Kansas City International Raceway 8/85. | Johnny perfected doing a burnout & dry hop on alky and then staging and running on nitro. | I was a huge draw with this setup. It helped me save money, but mostly helped promoters book me as the little guy taking on the big guys. It led to a lot of bookings. - Johnny West, Draglist LIVE, 2/3/20 |

Notes: Photo from Indy 1986. Did Johnny go 5.427/268.65 somewhere this year (perhaps a match race at Englishtown?) Seems very quick. Listing his best NHRA times until we get confirmation. | West's first time out driving for Roland Leong was at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals. The team did pretty well, qualifying #8 with a 5.775/255.68 and running an even better 5.749/256.41 to beat Tripp Shumake's 5.85/237 in the first round. In the second round, he ran Dale Pulde, but West crossed the centerline on his run and was disqualified. They qualified #8 again at the NHRA Gatornationals with a 5.87/256.55. Unfortunately, West smoked the tires to a 6.35/250.13 loss to Scott Kalitta's also traction plagued 6.22/186. At Atlanta in April for the NHRA Southern Nationals, Johnny qualified #8 (again) with a 5.86/251.25. He beat Bruce Larson in round one, and a 6.84/244.83 advanced into the semifinals when John Force crossed the centerline. In the semis, he fouled against Jim Head. Famoso held an eight-car Funny Car show for its Bakersfield March (May) Meet. Roland and crew were there and West ran a 5.88/252.10 to qualify #5. He faced low qualifier Force in the first round, and his 5.84 lost to Force's 5.80. Baton Rouge and the Cajun Nationals was NHRA's next stop and a 6.01/243.70 qualified Johnny #10. He picked up to a 5.83/252.59 in the first round, to beat Kenny Bernstein's 5.88/237. He lost traction in round two, but his 6.13/240.89 still beat Scott Kalitta's 6.87/145. In the semifinals, Johnny's 5.94/244.43 lost to Billy Meyer's 5.86/245. On June 15 they were at Columbus, Ohio, for the NHRA Springnationals. West qualified the car #6 with a 5.83/251.46 and beat Gary Phillips in the first round, but he lost in round two. They made a stop at Maple Grove for the Super Stock Magazine Nationals. It was an eight-car show and Johnny qualified #2 with a 5.84/252.10 behind Bernstein's 5.62 (Low ET). A first-round 5.91/251.39 beat Jerry Caminito and in the semifinals, a 5.90/249.30 beat Kalitta's 6.05/240. In the final, he met Bernstein and the Daytona broke, giving Kenny a solo for the victory. At the end of June, the were up north in Canada for the NHRA Grandnationals. The "Hawaiian" was making some horsepower there as he ran a 5.74 at a whopping 261.93 (Top Speed) to qualify #3. West ran a first-round 5.78/234.86 over Ed McCulloch's 5.94/250. In round two, a 5.79/259.21 beat a tire smoking Tom McEwen, but in the semifinals, he fouled against Bernstein. He won an eight-car show at Englishtown on July 2. His best run there was a 5.78/258.62 in the first round, while beating Larson's 6.31/184. He got the win by beating Tom Hoover in the final with a 6.17/241.93 over Tom's 6.41/237. They were back at Englishtown on July 13 for the NHRA Summernationals. A 5.72/261.17 qualified #6 and he beat Caminito in the first round, but a 5.85 in round two lost to Bernstein's 5.67. In the thin air of Denver for the NHRA Mile High Nationals, Leong proved that he could still tune a car to big numbers. A 5.87/253.16 (Top Speed) qualified #3. West made his way into the semifinals before running an off pace 6.03/237.71 that lost to Bernstein's 5.86/242. He qualified #4 with a 5.78/257.87 at Brainerd for the NHRA Northstar Nationals. Johnny beat Brad Tuttle's quicker 5.93/247 in the first round, with a 5.95/250.00. In the second round, he lost to McCulloch. A week later (August 24), they were at Cordova for the World Series where West set a 260.34 track speed record. Qualified number one at the NHRA Finals with his best national event times, 5.584/262.62. Unfortunately, Dale Pulde got to him in round one, 5.80 to 5.90. |

Notes: Photo from 1987 Winston All-Stars race at Texas Motorplex. West qualified #5 with a career-best 5.543 at 260.86. West qualified #7 at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals with a 5.63/255.39. In the opening round of eliminations, his 5.83/250.48 lost to low-buck racer Steve Hodkinson's 5.74/241. On March 15, the "Hawaiian" team went to Atlanta for an eight-car show. A 5.90/241.93 qualified #3. West ran 6.17/204.08 in the first round, to beat a tire-smoking Paul Smith, but the run was costly as it hurt the motor, and he was unable to return to run in the semifinals. A week later(March 22), they were at Gainesville for the NHRA Gatornationals. There a 5.67/257.65 qualified #8. An easy 5.79/242.19 beat Scott Kalitta's off=pace 6.21/185 in round one. Johnny's 5.81/248.48 beat Jim Head's smokey,6.75/119. Ed McCulloch also smoked the tires against him in the semifinals, and West's 5.76/252 advanced. However, all was not rosy as West had spun a bearing in his semifinal win. The team had to install a new "bullet" for the final, and in their haste, they failed to torque down the cylinder heads properly. Their final-round opponent was Don Prudhomme. Shortly after leaving, the line and "Hawaiian" broke, leaving the "Snake" all alone to run 5.72/260 for his first victory since '82. As mentioned above, he ran a career-best 5.543/263.92 to qualify #5 in the eight-car field at the Texas Motorplex for the NHRA Winston All-Star event. In the first round, he faced the low qualifier, Kenny Bernstein, and despite running 5.64/227.79, he lost to Bernstein's "Batmobile" at 5.39/263. The next stop was at Firebird Raceway for the Coor's Funny Car race. Ten cars were there that were to make two runs each. The two Low ET cars would then meet in the final. In West's first race, his 6.23/186.33 lost to Jim Dunn's 6.22/231. He picked up to 5.95/231.95 to win his second race when Tom McEwen crossed the centerline. Only two cars had run fives, his and John Force, who had run 5.88 and 5.85 to reach the final. Both made strong runs in the final as both crossed the stripe at 5.89 (West at 225.56), but Force got the "win" light. It was then back to Atlanta for the NHRA Southern Nationals. Johnny ran 5.78/244.63 to qualify the #8 beat he lost in the opening round to Kalitta. Famoso held its Bakersfield Meet on May 3, and West qualified #5 in the eight-car show with a 5.82/231.36. But in round one, his 6.10/225.00 held to the eventual winner Force, at 5.65/264. The team got a shot in the arm at Tulsa International for its annual Spring race. It was another eight-car show, and West qualified #2 with a 5.92/240.64. An opening round 6.00/238.72 beat Ron Dudley's 6.17/237, and he had a close race with Prudhomme in the semifinals that saw both run 6.04 (West at 240.64), but Johnny took the win. He faced Darrell Amerson in the final, and Darrell had just turned a career-best 5.93 in winning his semifinal race. But the run had been costly, and Darrell was a no-show, so West singled for the victory with a 5.94/243.24. The "Hawaiian" was at Baton Rouge for the NHRA Cajun Nationals near the end of May. Only sixteen cars showed for the sixteen-car field, and West qualified last at 12.16/68.22. But the race was postponed one week due to rain. Crew chief Roland Leong could not return for the rain date, so Johnny had to work double duty. Things worked out pretty well. A first-round 5.65252.03 stoppedMcEwen's 6.11/237. A second-round 5.63/256 halted the "Snake's" 5.81/250, and in the semifinals, his 5.68/253 beat Jim Head's troubled 7.42/132. He faced Bernstein in the final, which was the end of the run for West. A 5.99/233.83 finished second best to Kenny's 5.76/258. Confirmed 263.69 at Ennis TX 10/87. Did Johnny go 5.501 at NHRA Maple Grove? We think that is a misprint because Mark Oswald is credited with Low ET there at 5.512. | At Englishtown on 8/30/87 during the K-Mart/Polaroid US All Pro Funny Car Championships, it had read that Johnny Ran 5.359 against John Force in the 2nd Round. However, it was discovered a malfunction Time stop Photocell had shaken loose from the fastener due to the turbulence from West's car & stopped the clocks (Report from 9/6/87 copy of Raceway News). - Rob McCabe |

Notes: West started the 1988 season at Firebird Raceway's Super Bowl of Drag Racing. He qualified #5 in the eight-car show with a 5.82/247, setting up a first-round race with low qualifier John Force. He lost the race, running a 5.93/243.24 to Force's 5.40/268. At Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, he again lost to Force in the first round. He qualified #13 with a 5.68/254.45. His 5.98/234.37 in the first round lost to Force's 5.49/267. Shortly after that, the team made a stop at Baylands Raceway for a four-car match run at the East/West Meet. West beat Mike Dunn's 5.67/253 in his first race with a 5.64/249.30. He ran another 5.64 at 245.90 in his second race but lost to Force's 5.61/252. The final was another race between him and Force. Once again, John got the win, running a track record 5.51 at 248 to beat the Hawaiian's 5.82/221.13. At the NHRA Gatornationals, West did much better in qualifying, turning a 5.45/268.57 (career-best) for the #5 spot. Unfortunately, he still couldn't get out of the first round, as this time, Jim Head's 7.29/138 beat his 9.67/87.83 in a troubled match. He qualified for the NHRA Southern Nationals at Atlanta with a 5.87/258.10 before losing in round one. The next stop for the team was at Memphis for the NHRA Mid-South Nationals. West ran 5.70/257.36 to qualify #10. He slowed to 5.86/247.72 in the first round and lost to Jim Head's 5.68/253. The month of May ended with the team at Baton Rouge for the NHRA Cajun Nationals. Only 13 cars showed, so qualifying wasn't much of an issue. Still, West ran 5.72/259.74 for the #10 spot. He continued to have problems getting past round one, as this time, he fell to Kenny Bernstein. At Columbus, his 5.77/258.59 qualified #15 for the NHRA Springnationals. Once again, he took a loss in the first round, this time to Ed McCulloch. He finally got around the first round at the NHRA Grandnationals. Only 14 cars showed for the race, and his 5.67/259.74 qualified #9. Typically, he would have run the low qualifier in a sixteen-car field, but because the field was two short, he ran the second qualifier, McCulloch, in round one and won. He then sent Jerry Caminito home in round two with a 5.70/251. His run ended in the semi-final, where a 5.68 was not enough to beat Don Prudhomme's 5.55. Johnny ran 5.35/270 at the Englishtown Funny Car Nationals. His best NHRA national event times were 5.427 at Maple Grove and 268.65 at the World Finals at Pomona. |
