R.C. Sherman's Final Stats
Sherman's biggest years was 1989, driving the Raybestos sponsored funny car, where he qualified for 14 of 19 events. Since 1987, he was 9-26. His best qualifying position was 6th at the Spring Houston race in 1990. His best et was 5.373 and RC cut a .401 light at the Atlanta 1989 race against Ed "the ace" McCulloch in the first round. Besides having a 1-4 record with greats "Ace" and "the Snake", RC worst nemesis was Bruce Larson where he was 0-5.
RC's last NHRA event to qualify at was Reading 1992 where he lost to Del Worsham in the first round.
My condolences to his family and thanks for the memories.
