CROWD PLEASER
Tim Garlick puts on a show for the nitro-hungry fans at Santa Pod Raceway ’ s Euro Finals Shootout , a temporary replacement for the track ’ s usual FIA-sanctioned national event . Like many of the Funny Cars of the late ‘ 70s and early ‘ 80s , Garlick ’ s “ Apache ” ‘ 77 Pontiac Firebird Funny Car sports a nitro-burning 426ci Keith Black Hemi capable of motivating the hot rod into the 5-second zone .
