Notes: Ran a questionable 6.49 and an impossible 6.25 at US 30, Gary, Indiana. | Bobby Wood was at Miami in January for a sixteen-car show. He qualified third and was running 6.9s, but he failed to reach the final. He was back at Miami on February 13 for its Winter Championships race. A 7.57/193.96 qualified #6 in the eight-car show, but he lost to eventual winner "Jungle Jim" Liberman in the first round. He was at Lakeland on March 6 for the IHRA Winternationals where his 7.17 qualified #11. Unfortunately, he fouled in the opening round against Clare Sanders in the "Ramchargers" car. Wood then went to Atlanta for a best of three match race against Larry Arnold in the "Kingfish" 'Cuda. In their first race, Bobby caught Larry napping and his 7.20 beat the 'Cuda's quicker 7.03. Bobby wrapped up the match in the next race where his 7.10 won over Arnold ailing 11.20. Larry had some satisfaction in the last race as he won with a 6.87 when Wood fouled. Also ran 6.75 at Columbus.

Chris was the fourth alternate at NHRA Englishtown (times unavailable, but the bump spot was 6.324). At the 1973 AHRA Gateway Nationals at St. Louis International Raceway. Top Fuel Eliminator Chris Karamesines, the third qualifier at 6.38/228.43. 1973 AHRA Gateway Nationals at St. Louis International Raceway. Top Fuel Eliminator, Round 1. Chris Karamesines (near lane) loses to Texan Don Hand with a supercharger explosion. Chris was the fifth alternate at NHRA Indianapolis IN 9/01/73 at 6.32/225.00. That was his last NHRA national event of the year. Chris was at Tulsa in April for the AHRA Grand American. He qualified for the sixteen-car field, but he lost to Don Cook in round one. He also raced at Green Valley for the next AHRA Grand American race. He lasted until the semifinal, where he went into a wheelstand against Dave Settles. A big win followed that at Dragway 42 on May 24. He was there for the AHRA Grand American race. This was an eight-car field, and he qualified #3. In the opening round, he and his opponent, Lou Novotny, had problems, but the "Greek's" 7.17/198.23 crossed the stripe ahead of Lou's 7.15/149. In the semifinal, John Wiebe had problems and slowed to 7.10/204 while Chris ran 6.71/206.42 to win. He faced Jim Walther in the final, and Jim had won his semifinal race with a 6.45. But again, troubles interfered; Jim slowed to 18.03/40 while Karamesines got the victory with a 7.35/141.28. Shortly after that (June 3), he was in Denver at Century 21 Raceway for the AHRA Springnationals.A 6.64 qualified #4 for the sixteen-car field. He lasted until the second round, where he fouled against Wiebe.

Notes: Bought an original J-46 jet dragster and trailer from Walt Arfons with a $2000 home improvement loan and by putting up some land in Florida that Mike had purchased as a teen. Took a year to build the car (Craig Arfons). First time out at Thompson in 1972. Made two test passes, and then Walt got Mike Evegens a race at Epping, New Hampshire. Mike thought he was racing in front of nobody, but it turned out to be a huge jet car show with all the stars of the jet car world. Made the first pass and only went as long as he could stand it. (Had never made a complete pass). Shut off at about 700 feet, then went 1000 feet, and then ran out the end. Thought his head was gonna explode at the hit and then was surprised again at the top end when that massive parachute hit and pulled the wheels up four feet in the air. Shut the car off, and all of a sudden, the chute hit, and I'm looking at the moon. Mike Evegens, on the Wally Bell Show, 8/04/10
