Notes: Walls debuted his new Nova late in '68 at Lions on November 16 for an eight-car show. His first-round 8.24/172.41 beat Ray Alley's 8.26/179. A semifinal 8.09/174.08 lost to Jim Liberman's 7.65/187.50. He qualified third at Sacramento for the Drag Racing Magazine Meet, and a first-round 8.29/175.43 beat Ron Runyan's 8.67. A second-round 8.52/165 beat Bob Bedell's 8.82/171. A semifinal 8.49 by Fred Goeske stopped Randy's 8.80/173. OCIR's first All-Pro race of '69, actually run on December 29, 1968, saw 28 funny cars try to qualify for eight spots. Randy's 7.88/180.72 put him fifth on the grid, meaning he had to race number one qualifier (7.61) Rich Siroonian in John Mazmanian's Cuda. Walls advanced when John's car lost a rear end, but he fouled against Jim Liberman in the semis.
