Strange how they would pick on a crowd favorite...you would think it should be the other way around...

The story I heard! It was Dale Pulde driving the Car. The irony of this is that Dale lives with Dick Harrell's daughter. WOW I don't know if that's true but it makes a damm good story. Kim

Another rival of Dick's (friendly) was Bruce Larsen, who drove the USA-1 cars. While both raced Chevys, steel bodied and glass, Bruce ran mostly NHRA events. But, during this time period match racing was big, as well as certain events. One of these events was the "Super Stock & Drag Illustrated" magazine event held each year at York US30. In 1969, Bruce defeated DH in the funny car finals, Bruce driving his 1968 Camaro (which he stilll races) and DH in the Gibb/Harrell '69 Camaro.
As always, Bruce's '68 will be featured at the annual York show, along with Dick's '68 flopper.
