Notes: They took back-to-back wins in D/G at Pomona on Jan. 8 and Jan. 15 with 87.29 mph and 87.20 mph, respectively. The engine used then and in August racing was a 225 cubic inch Chevy 6. On Feb. 12 at Pomona, they won with their Chevy 6 in D/G with a new strip record of 93.65 mph. On Apr. 15 at the Drag News Invitational, Sedar and McCormack in the De-Win Chevy 6 set a strip record and class win in D/G with 92.59 mph. They took a D/G class win on Aug. 19 at San Gabriel with 91.78 mph. At Lions on Sep. 8, they won D/G with 89.37 mph. The D/G class was a tough class to win because of the presence of Jr. Thompson. There may have been an ownership and engine change at that point, as the Spaulding Cam Special was thereafter called the DeSalliers and Bishop Spaulding Cam Special. Jim Bishop was the driver. Bishop had previously won D/G at Pomona on Apr. 8 with 89.55 mph. Bishop took a win in D/G at San Gabriel on Sep. 23 with 90.00 mph. When the Spaulding Cam Special won at San Gabriel Valley Drag Strip on Oct. 21, DeSalliers and Bishop were listed as owners, and the engine was a '55 Chevy V8. They clocked 91.84 mph to win D/G class. They took another win at San Gabriel on Nov. 25 with 89.00 mph. On Dec. 9 at San Gabriel, they won again with 92.87 mph.
