Notes: John was at Englishtown on May 5 for the NHRA Division 1 Opener. A 6.68/209.79 qualified #6 in the eight-car field, and a 6.84/205.47 beat John Samolyk. Unfortunately, he broke in the semifinals against eventual winner Bob Newberry. He did not go to the second Division 1 race in Canada, but he was at Maryland International for the third Division 1 race. There, he qualified #3 with a 6.671/207.13. A 6.77/205.94 advanced past Tod Mack, who broke, but in the semifinals, his 6.74/205.01 lost to Newberry's 6.45/217. On September 29, he was at Moroso Motorsports Park for the final NHRA Division 2 race. His 6.78/210.77 qualified #3, and he improved to 6.67/208.81 in the opening round to beat John Lukens. In the semifinal, his 6.69/208.81 fell to Terry Mullins' quick-leaving 6.76/184. John was the runner-up to Bunny Burkett at the Delmar King of Kings event with a 7.08/210. At the KMart/Polaroid US All Pro Funny Car Championships at Englishtown 9/22/85, John ran Bunny Burkett in Round 1 where John ran 6.58/208.33 to Bunny's losing 6.67/211.26. Then, in the consolation round, he raced Tod Mack. Tod ran his best of the day at 6.81/214.28 but lost to John's 6.55/213.52. If anyone knows any better numbers for John in 1985, it would be appreciated. - Rob McCabe
