Rat:
On the double winners, that sheet I think is listing the class winner AND class runner-up R/U. Many of the class wins are "Brake Light" runs because the winner didn't want to re-set the class record. So in judging how fast the cars were, I find it's risky just to look at winning ET/MPH.

On the other hand, the R/U car was *probably* running flat out to catch the winner so usually their ET/MPH is a best effort. Usually.

Bacc:
The sheets I posted are all I have on Ed Collier, in fact I only guessed his car was a cuda til you confirmed that. Ed's son was on HAMB years back asking about pictures so you might see if that thread leads anywhere. I don't think it did though.

I am struggling trying to find the winner of Stock Elim at the 69 NHRA Winternats.

A results list would be a huge bonus...can anyone help?

For those still around - Winner of SS/B at the Nats was Herb McCandless driving the H.R Sullivan owned ‘Hillbilly’ RO23 Plymouth.

Herb won as a result of the DQ of Ed Terry’s 427 Fairlane.....apparently Ford did mot submit the paperwork on the cars.

Tom Myl won SS/BA in an RO23...but his was a clean win....over Arlen Vanke.
