Shown here in 1972, Don “The Snake” Prudhomme blazes the tires on the burnout with his Plymouth Barracuda Funny Car. This car was runner up in Funny Car at “The Last Drag Race” at Lion’s Drag Strip in Long Beach, California, that was in December of 1972 . “The Snake” was defeated by his arch rival Tom “The Mongoose” McEwen in that memorable final round. Note the black paint on the car.
