1981 at the same track I race at today. It was called central michigan dragway then and was run by the Howe family. I had a 72 cutlass supreme with a built up 350 Rocket and managed a 13 something et. Then fatally removed the edelbrock air cleaner and did not align the base properly when I reinstalled it. The throttle stuck wide open when it restarted and ballooned the B&M converter on the spot and ended my day. I have raced every year since but 88 thru 91 and thankfully gave up the dam Oldsmobile brand once and for all in 2001.
