Notes: Fire photo (by John Shanks) included due to different appearance of this car, and to show it as highly likely Diedrich drove the car in 1973. Caption accompanying photo states “ During recent action at Orange County International Raceway, photographer John Shanks caught this spectacular shot of Mike Diedrich's Funny in flames after he lost his motor in the lights. Fortunately, Diedrich was unhurt.” However, knowing the long lead times and the use of photos to fill space, it is possible this was 1972, as it has been written that Diedrich “retired” at the end of 1972. Can anyone confirm? JM
