Tom Cannon's '70 Challenger T/A had a memorable debut at Bristol. During one of his early runs, a piece of Mallory metal came out of the crank and punched a hole in the side of his oil pan.

The body damage was minor and a quick trip to a local welder had Cannon back on the track, where he qualified seventh in the F.A.S.T. class with a 12.32 ET.
