I lived at SoCal dragstrips from '63 until '69 (got drafted) and I watched Wild Willy, many many times, mostly at Lions, Irwindale and OCIR. I seem to remember that they only ran the 354" Chrysler block ('55-'56) but if that's true ~ they sure didn't need any more! I was a Chevy guy and pulled for cars like Mondello & Matsubara (big block Chevy) with Sush Matsubara at the wheel. They'd give Willie and the other Chrysler altereds a run for their money but hemi heads & nitro was tuff to beat.

I read that he held onto the car like that because the seat had been positioned for someone taller, thus he had to brace himself.

In an interview he said he had no idea that he drove with one hand until a crew member told him, besides that the guy is narcoleptic!! he would snooze in the staging lanes and then race that thing. dude is awesome...
