Rest in peace Roland! It was actually Wes Cerny that worked with Roland Leong and Jim White in 1991. Leonard Hughes teamed up with Roland in 1993 with Gordie Bonin driving.

WES CERNY Was the Crew Chief in '91 not Hughes. .Cernys Tune Up was the First to 300 in the Bud car a few months later.

My favorite memory, and Larry Reyes' least favorite memory, is when the Hawaiian F/C went airborne in the traps due to warped inner liners in the slicks. Also, if I recollect correctly, that also led to the much narrower Mini Charger body. Good from bad. Gonna' miss you Roland. Say "Hi" to Don Schumacher for us.

It's too bad so many great racers have been pushed out of the sport because of the greed of the NHRA and their total lack of interest in providing prize money or sponsorship help to allow real racers like Roland Leong to keep going in the 90s... there is nothing sadder than getting shoved out of something you love and helped build while others behind the scenes because filthy rich... and I'm not just talking about Roland but dozens of champions left out in the cold by the NHRA and their corporate masters... It's disgusting... I haven't been to a National event or watched one on TV in over 20 years and I don't see that changing anytime soon...

Schumaker and Leong, that's 2, who's # 3?

The first Hot Rod magazine I ever saw had his Dragster on the cover. I believe it was April 1965.
