Notes: Bill was at Lions on June 29 for an eight-car show. He qualified #1 with a 7.11/212.26, and in the opening round of eliminations, he and Wayne King had a tire-smoking match. Bill's 7.74/213.76 came out on top over Wayne's 7.58/217. Unfortunately, Alexander fouled in the semifinal against eventual winner Jess Sturgeon. Alexander was at OCIR for its Nitro Championships on July 6. It was a sixteen-car field, and his 7.32 qualified #6. Unfortunately, he lost in the opening round of eliminations. Bill made his first six-second run in this car at the PDA Championships at Lions on July 20. His 6.99/216.34 qualified #13 in the sixteen-car field. Unfortunately, the car lost fire on the line in the first round, giving Tom Larkin a single. The team was at Irwindale on August 3 for the Gold Cup Championships. Bill ran a 7.46/199.54 in the first round, that finished second best to Frank Rupert's 7.35/203. Shortly after that, the team was at Fremont for its Fuel Championships. He beat Don Argee's 7.50/196 in the first round, with a 7.24/196.05, but he fouled away a 7.21 in round two against Stan Shiroma, who advanced with a 7.14. |
