Notes: With Connie Swingle & T.C. Lemons. Exploded and severed Don's foot on March 8th-1970, during the final round of the second race in the 1970 AHRA Grand American Series at Lions Drag Strip in Long Beach, California. Don recovered, then built his revolutionary rear-engine dragster for the 1971 season. Ran 6.57 on 3/08/70 at the same Lions event, which was the new AHRA record. Low qualifier at Gainesville 2/70 at 6.551 and Low ET the next day at 6.509. |
