January 1967

Dick Landy now running his 'long nose' Dart Funny Car with a Ramchargers 426 'Blown' Engine set-up.

Dick ran an 8.91 @ 180 MPH with the wheels in the air.

Later, Dick ran an 8.22.

After finding out that 'Dyno Don' Nicholson had run a 7.96 @ 196.60 MPH
Dick said, "That's it".

He said that these cars were just getting too fast for their frames.
