From Cacklefest.com: "In 1971 Herm Petersen of Poulsbo, Washington teamed up with Sam Fitz of Bremerton, Washington to field a top notch RCE (Woody) Top Fuel car. It was Petersen's second fueler and Fitz's baptism to drag racing. The team was a natural as Fitz was a fun loving and successful restaurant owner and Petersen an ace mechanic and excellent driver. Raced mainly in the Northwest, the team were serious contenders at every event they entered. By the time the pair switched to their first rear engine Top Fuel car in 1972, this Woody car had earned Herm the nickname, 'The Northwest Terror'."
