Notes: After running a dual Mercury-engined dragster for a very short time, they returned to running a single-engined car. Their first outing in the B Open Gas dragster was at Kingdon on Oct. 27. They turned 132.35 mph. A week later, at Vacaville, they ran in both gas and fuel classes. They won Top Gas Eliminator and put fuel in the tank to run for Top Eliminator, getting runner-up to Emory Cook. On Nov. 3 at Kingdon, they clocked 10.11 at 137.13 mph.
