Top Fuel 1968
In 1968 the anticipation for the NHRA World Finals was running high, especially with the announcement of a nation wide, closed circuit television hookup for the event, a giant step for NHRA. Bennie came to the race as the ’68 Division 4 champion and, as such, he only had to make one qualifying run in order to make the field, but Bennie wanted to show off for the home crowd so he made a pair of runs including a 7.01 which gave him the number one qualifying spot. On race day, he beat
Jerry Ruth, Jerry Wilson and Tom Larkin to get to the final round

Jerry Ruth did run a mustang flopper...around 1973?
