Add Roy Johnson to this list. He drove the 64 Polara for Dave Bortman at the 72 or 73 IHRA Winternationals in Lakeland FL. And maybe a couple of other races after that.. I remember because he went thru the field of NHRA SS guys too easily and comented to me and my future wife after the race that it was easier racing the NHRA gus who had come over to IHRA to play than it was to beat the IHRA regulars. I also remember because both he and Dave ended up in the SS Finals and had to race each other. Roy red lited to Dave on a pre arranged deal. They also ran the race on Firestone Drag tires and changed them to Goodyears in the staging lanes prior to the final round. Goodyear was one of their sponsors.
Roy converted his "new" 71 Challenger to a NHRA SS car after the winternationals and ran a small block in it. Alan later drove the car.
