Notes: On January 12, Burgin qualified #7 at an eight-car show at OCIR with a 9.46. He lost to Skip Hess in the first round. It should b mentioned that he was still running his Willys at that race. On March 1, he was at Lions for an eight-car show, but an 8.91/157.61 in the first round, lost to a quick-leaving Ron Zeller, who won with an 8.93/154. He was back at Lions on March 15, but his 10.19 best failed to qualify. Gary qualified #1 with an 8.86/160.14 on May 24 at an eight-car show at OCIR. In the first round, he ran a best ever (to this point) 8.71/161.57 to advance over a fouling Manuel Herrera. In the semifinal, it was Burgin who fouled, wasting an 8.75/160.32 on a red light loss to Steve Korney's 8.84/156. On July 26, OCIR held another AA/GS show. Fourteen cars showed, and Gary's 8.87 qualified #3. He got past the first round, but in round two, his 9.10 lost to Herrera (now driving John Lombardo's Corvette) at 8.90. | Burgin ran Open AA/GS programs in So-Cal. Those cars frequently were not NHRA-legal. However, legal-blown street roadsters were allowed to compete against the NHRA's AA/GS class coupes starting in 1968. - RT Burgin raced the Willys early in 1969, switched to the 27-T Roadster May-1969.

Notes: Gary started the season on January 1 at Irwindale's New Year's Funny Car Festival. He qualified #15 with a 7.68, but his transmission got stuck in reverse in the first round. That gave Tom McEwen a single into round two. The next day he was at Fremont for their Funny Car Championships. A first-round 7.62/187.80 lost to Pat Minick's 7.47/197 in the "Chi-Town Hustler." He was at OCIR for the first OCIR All-Pro race, but he lost early. He failed to qualify at the second All-Pro race on January 24. He also could not make the show at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals (times unavailable). OCIR held an eight-car show in March, and although Burgin's 7.28/202.24 lost to Jim Dunn's 7.03/187 in the first round, he got back in on the "break rule" when Dunn was unable to run in the semifinal. Gary advanced into the final with a 7.85/134.32 when Ron O'Donnell broke in the "Super Chief." In the final, he slowed to an off pace 7.48/201.34 that lost to Gene Conway's 7.07/187. He had problems on March 20 at an eight-car show at Lions. As he was approaching the line for his first-round race with Dave Beebe, the super low Camaro snagged the electronic roller starter system and fractured the oil pan. The final OCIR All-Pro race was run on March 27. Gary qualified #10 and, in the first round, beat Rich Siroonian in John Mazmanian's Cuda with a 7.27/197.80. In the second round, his 7.34/185.95 beat Bob Pickett's late 7.33/151.00, but he broke on the run and could not make the semifinal. Lions held an eight-car show on April 24, and Gary was there. He beat Pickett in the first round, with a 7.34/182.42, but in the semifinals, he blew his motor on a 7.52/169.81 loss to Bob McFarland's 7.32/174. He was at OCIR on May 1 for the Big Four Championships, but he lost in the second round to Sush Matsubara. Irwindale hosted the NHRA Division 7 race on May 15. The eight-car Funny Car field was led by Dunn while Burgin's 7.26 qualified #5 setting up a first-round meeting with these two that Gary lost. Irwindale held its Memorial Day Championships on May 31, and Gary reached the final, where his 6.96/213.76 lost to Matsubara's 6.92/216. He finally grabbed a win when he won over an eight-car field at Lions on June 12. His final round times were 6.89/208.33. At OCIR's March of Dimes event, Burgin shut down early in a first-round loss to eventual winner Dave Beebe who was driving the "Mr. Ed" car. He was back at OCIR on July 3 for the Nitro Championships. He eased to an 8.39/111.38 when low qualifier Siroonian had to shut off on the line with a water leak in the opening round. But in round two, Beebe stopped him again, this time with a 7.00/217 to Gary's 7.16/212.26. The following day (July 4), he was at Irwindale for the Independence Day Championships. It was an eight-car field, and Burgin set Low ET in qualifying #1 with a 7.04 at 207.37. But Beebe seemed to have Gary's number because his 7.13/206 put Burgin on the trailer in the opening round. | 426 CID via opened-up early - not late - hemi, per feature in 8/71 Hi-Performance Cars. - RT

Notes: Dave Braskett and Gary Burgin had raced a Camaro in '71. For the '72 season, they changed to this 116" Buttera-built Vega. Not only did they change the body, but for the '72 season, they also changed from the 392 to a stock-sized, Keith Black built 426. It retained the independent front suspension the Camaro had used and, out back, a Detroit Locker carrying 5.43 gears. Gary was at OCIR in January for the All-Pro Opener. He won the eight-car show by beating Jim Dunn's 6.94/212 in the final with a 6.82/213.27. He didn't do quite as well at the second OCIR All-Pro event, as he lost to Ray Alley's 6.85/209 in the first round, with a 6.94/210.28. Things went bad at the Lions Grand Premiere on January 28. He qualified #2 with a 6.72, but he crashed into Joe Winters' car in the first round, and Burgin's car flipped. He was OK; the car, not so much. The team attempted to qualify at the Pomona Winternationals but was a DNQ (times unavailable). Gary was back at OCIR for the third All-Pro race. He qualified #5 with a 6.87, but a first-round 7.06 lost to Jerry Ruth's 6.67. Another loss to Ruth came not in the first round but in the final at the Las Vegas National Open on March 5. Burgin's final round 7.11/207.84 lost to Ruth's 6.97/207. Gary qualified #9 at NHRA Indy at 6.569/225.00 but lost to Sush Matsubara's 6.46/229.59 with a 6.605/217.39. We need to validate the 6.50/226 numbers; were those just the abbreviated Indy numbers? Gary was an NHRA record holder for a short while. Also, 6.66 at 222.22 in winning the All-Pro Series in 1972 and ran 6.61 at OCIR.

Notes: Gary was running hard in '75. It was a good lead-up to his great '76 season. He started the '75 season at the Irwindale Grand Premiere, qualifying #5 in the sixteen-car show. He lost in the first round. At Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, a 6.44 qualified #14. A first-round 6.40/205.47 beat Neil Leffler, but unfortunately, he had crossed the centerline and was disqualified. He ran at the Bakersfield March Meet, where his 6.46/212.76 qualified #7 in the twelve-car field but had the misfortune of breaking in the first round, against Don Prudhomme. At the Gatornationals, Gary ran 6.42/227.27 to qualify #3. He beat Gordon Mineo in the first round, but lost to Shirl Greer in round two, where he overpowered the track and smoked the tires. His next stop was at Irwindale for the 32-car Coca-Cola Championships. Gary beat an out-of-shape Leroy Chadderton in the opening round with a 6.80/178.92 and an easy 7.43/152.02 advanced past Larry Arnold who got sideways in the Mickey Thompson Grand Am and shut off. In round three, Burgin had another easy run where Norm Wilcox, driving the "Hawaiian," had issues and shut off on the line. But in the semifinals, he broke against Prudhomme, and the "Snake" ran a track record 6.25 to win. In May, he got a runner-up finish to Jake Johnston in the Pisano and Matsubara Vega at the Irwindale Fox Hunt race. Fremont also held a "Fox Hunt" race in May, and it featured the FC's running the Top Fuel cars with a .30 handicap on the 'tree. The cars all made three passes, and in Gary's first run, his 6.55/213 beat Dave Uyehara's Chevy-powered car. The second race was weird as the 'tree was never activated, yet his opponent, Gary Ritter, flew to an apparent win with a 6.71/172 while Burgin shut off on the line. The third round was stranger still: as soon as the 'tree blinked green, he and James Warren roared off, and the power went out. No times were recorded for their runs, but witnesses said that they were flying. Warren crossed the line first. At the NHRA Springnationals, he qualified #6 with a 6.50/215.82. A first-round 6.54/211.76 beat Al Segrini's 6.68/201 in the "Black Magic" Vega. But in round two, his 6.58/221.13 lost to Ed McCulloch's 6.45/205. Gary was back at Irwindale for its Doubleheader (motorcycles and FC) event. It was an eight-car show, and in the opening round, his 6.72/197.80 beat a tire-smoking Arnold who was now driving the "Lil' Demon." But a 6.76/208.33 failed to get past Jim Dunn's 6.57/210 in the semifinal. He had an interesting outing at the first NHRA Division 7 race at Sacramento. He soloed in the first round, setting Low ET and Top Speed at 6.55/211.77. In the semifinals, he made another single at 6.73/161 when Dunn's Satellite broke. In the final, he went up against Roger Garten. It wasn't much of a race as Burgin had an oil fire on the line and shut off while Garten grabbed the win. Near the end of June, he competed at the OCIR Nitro Championships, but he failed to reach the finals. On July 13, he was at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, where he qualified #2 with a 6.29/222.22. He advanced past a broken Bill Leavitt in the first round, with a 6.54/204.80. In round two, he smoked the tires and lost to McCulloch. The following week (July 20) found Gary at Minnesota for the third NHRA Division 5 race. It was only a four-car show, and Burgin won quite easily, setting low et and Top Speed in the final with a 6.67/221.67 over Carl Swanson's 6.97/200. He also won the next Division 5 race at Bison Dragways in Manitoba. He set Low ET and Top Speed with track records of 6.69/222.22, and in the final beat Topper Kramer's 7.06/184 with a 6.73/222.22. At the NHRA Grandnationals, Gary didn't run as well as he would have liked. It was an eight-car show, and he qualified #5 with a 6.60/213.27, putting him in a first-round match with low qualifier Prudhomme. Gary's off pace 6.75/216.86 lost to the "Snake's" 6.47/212. The fourth NHRA Division 7 race was held at Bonneville Raceway on August 17, and the Funny Car field was again reduced to just four cars. Gary's 6.84/201.27 qualified #2, but in the first round, he was upset by Dennis Geisler's 6.65/199 in the "Lil' Demon" that beat his 6.94/204. Burgin ran 6.313/203.61 and 6.47/184.42 in winning the Funny Car Race of Champions at Englishtown, NJ, in August 1975. He had won Division 7 in 1974. - RT | Photo from Indy 1975. - MS | Ran 6.31/228.42 at Indy US Nationals 9/75.

Notes: This had to be Gary's best season behind the wheel of a flopper. Although it sure didn't start that way. He was at Fremont for the Nitro Bowl race, where all the cars made three runs. In his first race, his 6.67/204.08 lost to Don Prudhomme's 6.55/207. In his second race, he was to run Roger Garten, but Burgin's car failed to fire. He finally won his third race, where his 6.63 beat a tire-smoking Bob Pickett in Mickey Thompson's Grand Am. He ran at the AHRA Winternationals at Tucson, where he qualified #3 with a 6.47/205.47. He lasted until the second round when his 7.02 lost to Tom McEwen's 6.99. The following week, he was at Beeline for the Phoenix Winter Classic. He qualified #1 with a 6.27/233.76 and an opening-round 6.47/220.04 beat Twig Zeigler. Shirl Greer fouled against him in round two, so Burgin took it easy and advanced with a 7.11/175.43. He set Top Speed at 236.84 in the semifinals while running 6.28 to beat Dale Emery. He faced Prudhomme in the final. Unfortunately, he crossed the centerline, and the "Snake" got the win. Burgin qualified #1 at the NHRA Gatornationals with a 6.29/223.32, but the car went into a wheelstand in his first-round race, and he lost to Tom Prock. At Miami-Hollywood for the IHRA Winternationals, Gary again made it into the final. He made runs of 6.59 and 6.46 to meet with Prock; this time, he took a little nap, and his 6.43/222.22 finished runner-up to Tom's 6.52/219. He was at Rockingham early in May for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships, and while he failed to reach the finals, he did set Top Speed at 228.00. On May 23, he was in Atlanta for the IHRA Dixie Nationals. Burgin made it into the semifinal before losing to eventual winner Raymond Beadle's 6.49 in the "Blue Max" with a slightly quicker 6.48. Gary lost to Beadle at the NHRA Springnationals, as well. Gary qualified #8 with a 6.53 and a first-round 6.59/214 beat Tom Hoover's 6.60/218. The two met in the second round, and Burgin smoked the tires while Raymond went 6.60/219 for the win. The next week (June 20), he was at Bristol for the IHRA Springnationals. He won the race by beating R.C. Sherman's 6.58/226 in the final with a 6.29/233.32. Earlier in the day, Gary reset the IHRA ET record to 6.14. On July 4, he was at Union Grove for the IHRA Summernationals. Gary won this one as well, and he set Low ET and Top Speed at 6.20/236.84. He beat Kenny Safford in the "Mr. Norm" car in the final. He ran well at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals as well. A 6.22 qualified #2 behind Prudhomme. A first-round 6.18 beat Eddie Pauling in Johnny Loper's Monza. In round two, a 6.29 beat Pee Wee Wallace's "Virginian," but in the semifinals, he overpowered the track and smoked the tires. Opponent McEwen cruised into the final with a 6.62/202. Gary won Englishtown's Funny Car and Halter Top Nationals later in July. He ran a best of 6.52/226 and beat "Jungle Jim" Liberman in the final. In August, he won the Race of Champions event at Maple Grove. He set Top Speed and low et at 6.27/228 (track record). In the final, he beat R.C. Sherman. Surprisingly, he failed to qualify for the PHR Championships at Martin, Michigan. The front end came up on every one of his qualifying passes, and he had to get out of it. He then competed at the IHRA US Open. He qualified #1 with a 6.38/230.76 but failed to reach the finals. The next win is the one that makes the year. At Indy for the US Nationals, Gary qualified #4 with a 6.127/233.76. A first-round 6.123/221.67 beat John Lombardo, while in round two, a 6.21/238.09 (Top Speed) beat Prock's 6.52. In the semifinals, he advanced with a 6.21/231.95 when Beadle's car had fuel injector problems and shut off. In the final, he faced Prudhomme's all-conquering Monza. Gary was up to the task, beating the "Snake's" 6.46/226 with a 6.25/237.46. There was no love lost between Prudhomme and Burgin at this time, so the win was especially sweet. Shortly after that, he went to Epping, New Hampshire, for its Funny Car Nationals. Gary looked like he was well on his way to another win as he beat Dale Creasy in the first round, with a 6.49/212. Another 6.49 at 229 (Top Speed) beat Fred Dename in round two, and a third-round (32-car show) 6.40/207 advanced when George Johnson broke. Unfortunately, the win was costly as he blew his engine and was replaced by Al Bergler for the semifinal. On September 26, he made the final at the IHRA All-American Championships at Bristol. Unfortunately, the car failed to fire, and Larry LaDue soloed for the victory. Formerly listed a 6.11 for this year, but we need confirmation on that.

Notes: After a great '76 season, Burgin was hoping for more success in '77. He debuted his new Monza at Fremont on January 1 for the Sixth Annual Nitro Bowl. He had handling problems in the first round, but he still won his race. Burgin was lined up against Raymond Beadle in the "Blue Max" for their second-round race when it started to rain, and the race was canceled. Gary qualified #7 at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals. But he was back in the Mustang II (thanks, Joe Moore). He beat Dale Pulde in the second round to face Don Prudhomme in the semifinals. Burgin had trouble, and his new Monza caught fire on the line while eventual winner Prudhomme headed for the final with a 6.29/216 solo. The damage was lite, and Gary showed at the NHRA Gatornationals, where he qualified #5. In the second round, he got out of shape and lost to Gordie Bonin. In May, he won the Olympics of Drag Racing event, beating Prudhomme in the final with a 6.17/233.16. At Columbus, Ohio, for the NHRA Springnationals, he qualified on the pole with a 6.10/236.84 (Low ET and Top Speed). Unfortunately, he lost to Bonin in the first round. He was runner-up to Tom Hoover at a Memorial Weekend Funny Car race at Martin, Mich. Gary qualified #3 at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals with a 6.17/234.98. He lost to Hoover in the second round when he smoked the tires and shut off. A week later (July 24), he was in Milan for the IHRA Northern Nationals. It was good to see him back on the IHRA tour as he hadn't run any IHRA events in '77 up until Milan. Gary must have been glad to be back as well as he won the race and set a new IHRA record of 6.08. He qualified #3 with a 6.28 in the eight-car field. In the first round, Burgin beat Jim Pryor in Jim Naramore's car, then stepped up to a 6.13 in the semifinals to beat Tom McEwen's quicker 6.11. In the final, he took the victory with his 6.08 beating Dale Pulde's right there 6.09. On August 4, he was back at Englishtown for its Funny Car Race of Champions event. All cars ran two runs, with the two lowest ETs meeting in the final. Gary won his first race with a 6.43/218 that was Low ET of the first-round over Al Hanna in the "Eastern Raider." But in the second race, he fouled and shut off. Two other cars bettered his 6.43, and Burgin failed to reach the final. He was up North in Canada a few days later, on August 7, for the NHRA Grandnationals. It was another eight-car field, and his 6.31/230.76 qualified #3. He advanced past the first-round with a solo 6.30 when Tim Kushi's Vega failed to fire, but in the second round, he had a fuel pump break, and he lost to Prudhomme. Another win came a week later, on August 14, at Martin, Michigan's US 131 for the PHR Championships. All cars ran the first-round race with the eight lowest ETs regardless of winning or losing, advancing into round two. Gary's first-round 6.44 lost to Ron Colson's 6.40 in the "Hawaiian," but his ET qualified for the show. In the second round, he ran 6.18 to beat Prudhomme, and in the semifinals, a 6.23/234 beat recent Grandnationals winner Tom Hoover. In the final, he grabbed the victory when Pulde had problems and slowed to a 15.22 while Gary ran 6.61/231.36 to win. At Indianapolis for the NHRA US Nationals, almost 40 cars fought for the sixteen spots available. Burgin qualified #2 behind Prudhomme with a 6.07/238.09. In the first round, he set Low ET of the meet with a 6.02 at 237, beating John Lombardo's 6.59. In round two, a 6.08/236 beat Tom McEwen's 6.24/233. But he was not going to repeat as the winner when in the semifinals, his parachute deployed on his run and his 'chute pulling 8.18/92 lost to Richard Rogers' 6.54/216 in Jim Green's "Green Elephant." That was a tough loss. Gary did not attend the NHRA Fallnationals, but he was at Ontario Motor Speedway for the NHRA World Finals, where he qualified on the pole with a 6.04/241.93 (Low ET and Top Speed), but he lost early. As the season was coming to a close, he won the Governor's Cup Funny Car race at Sacramento over Ed McCulloch, with his 6.20 winning over the "Ace's" 6.25.

He faced Johnson in the final, and Johnson was strong as he had run Low ET at 6.29 in the first round, of eliminations. But Burgin got the win with a 6.48/210.77 over George's 6.59/218. He won the UDRA North American Grandnationals held at Detroit Dragway. He ran 6.38/224.42 in round one, and in the semifinal, a 6.27/227 beat Raymond Beadle's 6.40/228 in the "Blue Max." He faced Tom Prock in the final, and Prock smoked the tires while Burgin ran 6.26/223.56 for the victory. Edgewater hosted an eight-car show soon after that. All cars there were to run three rounds, with the two Low ET cars running off in the final. Gary qualified for the final by winning his first race over Murf McKinney with a 6.18. The other finalist was Prudhomme, who ran 6.07. The final turned out to be one-sided as Gary slowed to 6.46 while the "Snake" ran 6.13 for the win. Burgin qualified #3 at the NHRA Springnationals with a 6.18/234.98. A first-round 6.30/234.98 advanced when Dale Pulde fouled against him. But in round two, a 6.40/230.17 lost to Shumake's 6.22/226. The Crazy Eddie Night of Thrills race was held at Englishtown on June 21, and Burgin made his mark. He set Low ET and Top Speed in the opening round at 6.16/234.37 while beating Les Cassidy's 6.30/213. He also ran a solo 6.21 when his opponent Al Segrini broke. Gary went up against Pete Williams, driving the "Chi-Town Hustler" in the final. Pete wasn't far behind in performance as he had run 6.18 earlier. In the final, Burgin had to settle for the runner-up spot as his 6.23/232.55 finished second to Williams' 6.20/224. He qualified #8 at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals with a 6.16/234.37, but an off-pace 6.40/231.36 in the first round, lost to Gordie Bonin's 6.29/236. He was runner-up to Prudhomme at the NHRA Grandnationals in Canada. He qualified #4 in the eight-car show with a 6.21, and in round one, a 6.23/227.27 beat Kenny Bernstein.

Another runner-up finish came at the Jungle Jim Memorial Funny Car Championships at Maple Grove. There he lost to Ed McCulloch in the final. He then went to Atco for its ninth annual Funny Car Championships. It was an eight-car show, and Burgin was unbeatable. A first-round 6.38/216.34 defeated Tommy Ivo's 6.55/201. He picked up a tenth in the semifinal, running 6.28/230.17 (Top Speed), to beat Prock, who shut off early. He faced Jim Adolph in the final, and Gary set Low ET with a 6.26/230.17 blast that got the victory over Jim's 6.51/185. He then stopped off at New England for the NHRA Division 1 final. This was a good race as he and Prudhomme were far ahead of everyone else in terms of performance. Gary's 6.32/224.43 beat Bruce Larson's 6.59/218 in round one, and a 6.30/225.00 in the semifinal stopped Kosty Ivanof's 6.88/177. The "Snake" had the edge going into the final, but Burgin stepped up, running a 6.18/231.95 to make it close. Don's 6.15/224 got the win. | Best NHRA times of 6.125/234.98. Formerly listed 6.02/241.93 bests for 1978, but we need evidence. Let me know if we are wrong.

Notes: Gary's one-year sponsorship from Pete Rose Candy Bars. Burgin started the season by qualifying #2 at the AHRA Winternationals and going to the final, where he lost to Tom Hoover. At Pomona, for the NHRA Winternationals, his 6.37/230 qualified #15. He lost to Ron Colson driving the "Hawaiian" in the first round. At the NHRA Gatornationals, Burgin ran 6.35/238.09 to qualify #10. In round one, he smoked the tires to a 7.72/125 loss to Raymond Beadle's 6.21/239 in the "Blue Max." The following week (March 18), he went to Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals. He qualified #4 in the eight-car field but failed to reach the final. He also ran at Atlanta Dragway for the IHRA Dixie Nationals in April but failed to reach the final. In May, he won the "Jungle Jim" Memorial (Dutch Classic) race at Maple Grove. He set Low ET and Top Speed at 6.28/233.16 before stopping Bruce Larson's 6.42/219 in the final with a 6.33/231.36. He then won his second NHRA career race at Columbus for the Springnationals. A 6.19/237.46 qualified #7. in the opening round, Burgin's 6.41/233.16 defeated Tom McEwen's 6.53/214. A round two 6.35/235.60 beat Hoover's 6.40/237. Al Segrini's car caught fire on the line in the semifinal, so Burgin soloed with a 6.51/233. He faced Beadle in the final, and Gary's 6.49/239.36 got the victory over the "Max's" 6.69/207. Shortly after that, he was in Detroit for the North American Grand Nationals. Unfortunately, Burgin broke in the first round against Beadle. Gary won the NHRA Springnationals this year. He ran well on the NHR tour, but not earth-shattering. His best numbers were from qualifying #14 at Indy with a 6.120/244.56. Is this the Monza, rebodied?

Notes: A dismal year, performance and sponsor-wise. Gary started the year by qualifying #1 at the AHRA Winternationals. He lasted until the semifinals, where he lost to Don Prudhomme. Gary failed to qualify at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, and a best of 6.30 also was unable to qualify at the Gatornationals. He did make the eight-car field at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals. He qualified #6 but went up in smoke in the first round, and lost to Raymond Beadle. Gary was at Maple Grove in April for its Spring All-Pro race. It was an eight-car show, and Burgin won his first-round race over Bruce Larson with a 6.20/232.55 but fouled in the semifinals against Bob Seifert. He was back at Maple Grove in May for the Jungle Jim Memorial race. Six cars made two runs each, with the two lowest ETs meeting in the final. Gary's first race saw Dale Pulde beat him with a 6.27/229 to his 6.43/229.00. His 6.35/228.42 beat Rick Johnson in the "Custom Body" Mustang in his second race. Unfortunately, neither of his times was good enough to make the final round race. At the NHRA Springnationals, Gary had all kinds of problems and failed to qualify. He had a blower explode, and after fixing it, every other attempt to qualify had the car go up in tire smoke. It was upsetting considering that he had won this event the year before. He did much better at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, where a 6.015/242.58 qualified #2 behind Beadle's 5.94. Gary beat Rick Johnson in the first round, with a 6.12, but in round two, he lost to Al Segrini. He then went to Dragway 42 for the AHRA Grandnationals, where he qualified #6 in the eight-car field with a 6.44, but another 6.44 in round one, lost to Prudhomme's 6.23. He qualified #2 in the eight-car field at the PHR Championships with a 6.15/235.60. An opening round 6.42/222 beat an out-of-shape Stan Bowman, and in the semifinals, he soloed with a 6.31/238.09 (Top Speed) when Billy Meyer's reverser broke after his burnout. In the final, he ran Ron Colson in the "Hawaiian," and his 6.44/236.84 finished second best to Colson's 6.20/231. The following week (August 17), he stopped off at Epping, New England, for the NHRA Division 1 Final, where he qualified #1 with a 6.01/241.28 (Top Speed). He set Low ET in the first round, where his 6.01/240 beat Pulde's 6.13/223. He shut off to 8.70 in the semifinal, but that was good enough to win as Al Hanna crossed the centerline and was disqualified. This put Gary into the final against Johnson. Once again, Gary's opponent crossed the centerline, and Burgin got the victory with an 11.33/71.59. Another win came at Englishtown over an eight-car field where Gary set Low ET at 6.09. He also ran 6.26/240.64 to beat John Speelman. In the final, he met Paul Smith driving Larry Coogle's "Sting." Gary won with a 6.12 at a new track speed record of 243.90 over Paul's 6.38/194. More disappointment came at Indy for the NHRA US Nationals, where his best of 6.11/241.28 failed to qualify for the show. Yet, just two weeks later, he won the IHRA US Open Championships at Rockingham. There he qualified #3 with a 6.19, and in the first round, he beat Frank Oglesby with a 6.37. He set Low ET of the meet in the semifinals with a 6.07/238.72 over Pulde's 6.24. This put him against Dick Rosberg in the "Fighting Irish" car in the final. It was a close race between the two, but Gary's 6.26/237.46 prevailed over Rosberg's 6.28/239. | I've heard that Gary built this car himself at J. Ed Horton's shop? - Tim Simplot | Yes, Burgin usually ran Jaime Sartes', later built his own cars in '80-'82. - Joe Moore

Notes: Burgin started the '81 season at the AHRA Winternationals. He qualified #2 behind Don Prudhomme. Unfortunately, a first-round 6.53/223 lost to Ed Moore's 6.37/225. At Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, he qualified #13 with a 6.237/236.22. He faced Mike Dunn in round one, and lost a 6.21/236.22 to 6.47/229.59 decision. Gary qualified #15 at Gainesville with a 6.111/239.36, but he hit the guardrail in qualifying and could not return. His next event was the Summernationals, where he qualified #7 at 6.037/244.56. But he shut off an 11-second pass in round one, that sent Dale Pulde on a 6.14/234 ride to round two. Gary was the third alternate at Sanair (times not available), but he qualified #6 at Indy with a 5.982/234.37. However, first-round blues struck again, and Fuzz Miller advanced at 6.58/201 when Gary slowed to a 7.79/108. Gary qualified #9 at Fremont with a 6.074/234.98. He got past Dale Pulde in round one, 6.09/229.59 to 6.34/229. Gary then beat Al Segrini in round two, 6.15/232.55 to 6.24/225. And he won a great match over Ray Beadle in the semis, 6.22/234.37 to 6.23/230. He faced Mike Dunn in the finals, but despite a great .514 to .547 holeshot, the Hawaiian car passed him at the top end, taking a 6.11/236 to 6.16/230.76 victory (.017 seconds - about 5 feet). Gary qualified #3 at Orange County for the FInals, running 6.005/237.46. He beat Jim Moore in round one, 6.041/230.76 to 6.46/187, and got around Rob Williams in round two, 6.063/241.28 to a shutoff. Burgin then beat a broken Dale Armstrong in the semis with a 6.054/234.98. He faced Jim Dunn in the final. Dunn stayed consistent while Gary fell off and took his second runner-up of the season, 6.10/235 to 8.67/105. | Burgin usually ran Jaime Sartes', later built his own cars in '80-'82. - Joe Moore

Notes: In January, Gary debuted his new Mustang at OCIR for the Grand Premiere event. Unfortunately, in the car's first run in the competition, it smoked the tires to 7.94 in a first-round loss to eventual winner Frank Hawley in the "Chi-Town Hustler." He was in Tucson later in January for the AHRA Winternationals. He qualified #2 behind Don Prudhomme, but in the first round, he was upset by eventual winner Ed Moore with his 6.53/223.32 losing to Ed's 6.37/225. At Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals, he ran 6.10/237.46 to qualify #12. A 6.11/243.24 beat Prudhomme's 6.31/185 in the first round, but in round two, Segrini left first and hung on to record a 6.30/233 victory over Gary's 6.29/227.27. At the NHRA Gatornationals, he qualified #6 with a 6.08/238.72. In the first round, he had problems and slowed to a 6.77/194.38 that lost to Kosty Ivanof's 6.32/229. After that, Burgin stopped at Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals, but he lost to John Pott in the first round. Atlanta held an eight-car show early in April. Gary was there, but he took a little nap in the first round, and his 6.04 lost to Frank Hawley's 6.10 in the "Chi-Town Hustler." He was back in Atlanta on April 25 for the NHRA Southern Nationals. It was another eight-car show; he ran 6.09/240.00 to qualify #7. In the first round, he smoked the tires against Raymond Beadle in the "Blue Max" and shut off to a 10.56 while Beadle advanced with a 5.88. He was at Rockingham on May 2 for the IHRA Pro-Am Championships. Once again, he lost in the first round. This time, Segrini took him out. Gary made it past the first round at the next NHRA event, the Cajun Nationals at Baton Rouge. He qualified last in the eight-car show with a 6.24/237.46. In the first round, he advanced with a 6.19/243 when Dale Pulde had problems on the line and shut off. He faced Beadle in the semifinals and fouled against him. The following week (June 6), St. Louis hosted the AHRA Gateway Nationals. Burgin went all the way, winning this one. He qualified #3 with a 6.17 and a 6.24/237.47 beat Ron Correnti in round one. In the semifinals, his 6.29/231.96 beat Tom Hovland, and in the final, a 6.34/230.77 beat Tom Hoover's 6.49/215. After his first big win of the year, it was strange to see his name among the non-qualifiers at the NHRA Springnationals. His best of 6.30/236.22 was good for the third alternate. He did make the field at Norwalk for the IHRA World Nationals on June 20. His 6.06 qualified on the "bump" spot of the eight-car show. Burgin lasted until the semifinals, where he lost to Tom Anderson. He was runner-up to Beadle on June 27 for Brainerd's US Funny Car Championships. Another win came at Kansas City for the AHRA Summernationals. He qualified #2 with a 6.02/239.36 behind Prudhomme's track record 5.97. He beat John Force in round one with a 6.19/229.00. In the semifinals, he advanced with a 6.14/233.16 when Hovland broke. In the final, he faced Prudhomme and the "Snake" shut off with problems while Burgin won with a 5.99/234.98. His next stop was at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals. A 6.00/244.56 qualified #7, and he ran well, lasting until the semifinals. Burgin won the US Funny Car Nationals at Maple Grove. He reset the track record to 5.93 and had Top Speed of the meet at 235.60. A final round 6.004/227.27 narrowly beat Segrini's 6.010/232.55. At the NHRA Northstar Nationals, Gary ran 5.91/244.56 to qualify #3. He beat Beadle in the first round with a 5.97/246.57, but he smoked the tires in the semifinals and lost to Segrini. He then made the trip to Indy for the NHRA US Nationals. Gary's 5.88/248.61 qualified #6. He beat Mike Dunn driving the "Hawaiian" and Anderson in the first two rounds, and a semifinal 5.93/243 beat a tire-smoking Ken Veney in the semifinals. He faced Billy Meyer in the final, and Meyer's semifinal win came with a 5.94, so it was expected to be close. Unfortunately, Burgin overpowered the track and smoked the tires while Billy ran 5.91 for the victory. After a great runner-up finish at Indy, it was surprising to see his name among the non-qualifiers at Fremont for the NHRA Golden Gate Nationals. It was an eight-car field, but Gary was definitely having problems as the best he could run in qualifying was 6.12/234. It took a 6.04 to make the show. Things went better at OCIR for the NHRA World Finals, but not by much. He qualified #15 with a 6.10/235.60 and an opening-round 6.11/237.46, lost to Beadle's 6.05/238. He was back at OCIR for its Manufacturer's Meet in November. Burgin made a warm-up pass and ran 5.99 but lost to Dunn and Billy Meyer in his first two races.

Notes: Gary started the '83 season at Tucson for the AHRA Winternationals, where traction was poor. A 7.21 qualified #4, and he beat John Force in the first round with an 11.61. In the semifinal, he ran a 7.90 to beat Brian Raines "Impulse." In the final, an 11.13 was good for runner-up honors as Don Prudhomme beat him with a 7.00. He then went to Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals. He led qualifying on Thursday with a 6.09/238.72. On Friday, he came back out and ran 6.022/243.24, qualifying #3. Gary picked up his pace to a 5.94/240.64 that stopped Billy Meyer in the first round. A second-round 6.20/237.46 got around Kenny Bernstein. He met with Tom Anderson in the semifinal, who used a 5.97/236 to stop Burgin's 6.18/234.98. He ran really well at the NHRA Gatornationals, where a 5.87/240.64 qualified second behind Mark Oswald's similar 5.87/254. In the first round, he set Low ET at 5.78 at 238.72 while beating Bernstein's 5.94/245. In the second round, he shut off and lost against Anderson. Gary then went to Darlington for the IHRA Winternationals. It was an eight-car field, and he qualified second. He lasted until the semifinal before smoking the tires and losing to Raymond Beadle in the "Blue Max." OCIR held its 64 Funny Car show in April. All cars were to make two runs, with the two Low ET cars meeting in the final. Gary's 6.35/230.76 lost to Prudhomme's 6.13/222 in his first race, and in the second, his 6.18/231.95 beat Gary Densham. Unfortunately, neither of his ETs was good enough to advance into the final. He then went to Green Valley Raceway on April 10 for the NHRA Division 4 race. Normally, by '83, Fuel FCs were not part of the program. But the track wanted a full show of TF and FCs. It was an eight-car show, and Gary ran 6.29/225.56 in the opening round to beat Johnny West, and a 6.22/233.76 in the semifinal beat Tom Hoover's better 6.17/224. In the final, both he and Frank Hawley, driving the "Chi-Town Hustler," slipped and slid down the track, with Burgin getting the victory with a 6.92/221.13. He failed to qualify for the eight-car show at the NHRA Southern Nationals on April 17, where he had lots of problems and could run no better than 13.54/46.02. The following week (April 24), he was at Rockingham for the IHRA Pro-Am Nationals. A 6.09 qualified #5, but he lost to Dale Pulde in the first round. Englishtown held its Springnationals race sponsored by K-Mart, and eight cars were competing. He won his first-round race with a 6.27/221.13 when R.C. Sherman's Arrow broke. In the semifinal, he ran 6.11/240.00 over Tim Grose's 6.39/222. In the semifinal, he faced the "Custom Body" car driven by Rick Johnson. In this race, Burgin was the underdog as Rick had run his first "5" in the other semifinal race. The two had a good race, but Burgin's 6.30/234.37 finished runner-up to Rick's 6.25/240. He then went to Maple Grove for its Coca-Cola Spring Championships. His seven-cylinder 6.33 qualified #1 for the eight-car field, and with rain looming, the two Low ET qualifiers met in the final. Burgin lost a blower belt, but his 6.53/220.04 still got the win over Scott Weney's 6.57/222. He did not go to Baton Rouge for the NHRA Cajun Nationals, but he was at Columbus for the NHRA Springnationals, where his 6.13/236.84 qualified #15. In the opening round, his 6.27/235.60 advanced over Meyer's troubled 9.12/83. A second-round 6.26/233.16 dropped Anderson's 6.29/243. He faced Beadle in the semifinal, and Gary's 6.42/171.75 lost to Beadle's 6.10/228. Shortly after that, he won the Crazy Eddie Night of Thrills race at Englishtown. He had run as well as 6.19/231.95 before he defeated Al Segrini in the final. Both had traction issues, and Burgin won with an 8.42/94.74. He made the trip to Canada for the NHRA Grandnationals, but he failed to qualify for the eight-car show with a 6.30 best. Later in the month (July), he was back at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals, but his 6.23 best failed to qualify there as well. He skipped going to Denver for the NHRA Mile High Nationals. In mid-August, Burgin was at Martin, Michigan, for the PHR Championships. He qualified #13 with a 6.43/214.79. He improved to 6.27/229.00 in the opening round, but it wasn't enough to beat Pulde's 6.06/230. Brainerd was the next stop on the NHRA schedule, and Gary ran 6.04/241.28 to qualify #11. He lost to Anderson's 5.88 in the opening round. This was not one of Burgin's better years, and it showed at Indy for the NHRA U.S. Nationals, where he failed to qualify. Photo from 1982 GVRC match race. Assuming this was the Mustang, rebodied. We need to validate. We need to enter other NHRA national event times, but it looks like a best speed of 243.24 on the national event circuit. Where did the 254.23 occur? Iversen "shoehorn" body.
