Notes: The Gapp and Roush team was running really well in '73, and the two thought that having two cars on the track might be the right thing to do. Jack Roush got behind the wheel of one of their Pintos and took it to Indianapolis for the NHRA Division Three opener. He qualified #6 in the eight-car field with a 9.57, and in the first round, he ran an even better 9.39/145.86 (Top Speed), but he was late off the line and lost to Rich Maskin's 9.41/142. The team took both cars to Columbus for the NHRA Springnationals. Roush did well during qualifying, running 9.45 for the #9 spot in the sixteen-car field, and he even out qualified Wayne Gapp, who got the #10 spot with a 9.48. But in the first round, Roush's 9.50/145.63 lost to eventual winner Don Carlton's 9.46/145. Gapp did better lasting until the semifinals. They took both cars to Milan for the third NHRA Division Three race. Roush qualified #5 and got to race low qualifier Don Carlton in the first round. Jack pushed the tree a little too hard and fouled. Gapp got revenge by winning the race and stopping Carlton in the final. Both also qualified at Englishtown for the NHRA Summernationals. Jack put his Pinto on the pole with a 9.13/148.02, but in the first round, the Pinto broke a rear end, and Bobby Yowell advanced. The team then split with Gapp going to Canada for the NHRA Grandnationals while Roush went to York for the Super Stock Nationals. Jack's 9.18/151.26 (Top Speed) qualified #3 for the sixteen-car show, and an opening-round 9.15/150.00 beat Frank Iaconio. But in the second round, Jack got off the line behind Scott Shafiroff, and his 9.35/148.76 failed to catch Scott's 9.37/145. His driving career was halted at St. Louis. There he qualified #4 with a 9.15. A 9.12 in the first round, beat Royce Freeman, and in round two, Jack beat a fouling Joe Satmary with a strong 9.04/150. He improved to 9.02/150 in the semifinals while beating Gary Kimball, but the car got loose and rolled several times at the top end of the track. It was destroyed, and Roush was taken to the hospital with a broken arm.

Notes: In 1973, Jim was critically injured at an NHRA race in Columbus, Ohio. A spinal cord injury left him a quadriplegic. I traveled with Jim Wick and SS/AA racer Jim Jezwinski for years. I was at Columbus the day Jim crashed in qualifying running against Joe Satmary. I drove his transporter back to Wisconsin with his crashed Pro Stock on the back while he was in the Columbus hospital. What an eerie feeling that was looking in the rear view mirror. - Bob Marquart

Notes: Jim bought Wayne Gapp's Maverick and ran it in '73. The Boss 429 was punched out to 443 inches. It was a pretty strong runner; although it did not set any track records, it did run 9.27 at Cincinnati, 9.30 at Milan, 9.27 at Oswego, Illinois, and a best of 9.04 at Saginaw. On May 5, he was at Edgewater for the Super Pro Stock Circuit race. It was an eight-car show, and in the first round, his 9.54 beat Joe Satmary. In the semifinal, Kelly Chadwick fouled against him, and Halloran advanced at 9.67. In the final, he faced the similar Boss 429 powered Maverick of Eddie Schartman. Unfortunately, Jim broke a clutch just off the line in the final while "Fast Eddie" ran 9.43 for the victory.
