Notes: Lou had a bit of trouble in April at Miami-Hollywood's Big Go South race. He had one of the ten Funny Cars attempting to qualify for the eight-car show. He failed to qualify the car but returned later to make a check-out pass. Unfortunately, the accelerator jammed wide open while backing up from his burnout. The car bounced off the retaining wall before hitting some cars in the staging lanes. The only one hurt in the mishap was Dempsey Hardy, who was taken to the hospital and released shortly after. Lou's pocketbook probably took a hurting, too. After getting the car repaired, he reportedly won 65% of his match races, beating some of the better-known drivers/teams. Included in that list were the "Ramchargers," the "Mr. Norm" car, Tom Hoover, Fred Goeske, and Mike Burkhart, among others. The best ET and speed during '72 was a 6.81/210 at New York National on August 20. - Car actually debuted in 1971, as Azar ran it (and DNQ’d) at the NHRA Supernationals in 11/71. - JM |
