1972
Unpredictable and dramatic burnouts were all in a day’s work for the Doheny and Fullerton Trojan Horse. Becoming NHRA World Champion in 1972, other noteworthy Larry Fullerton Horses included a rear-engine Mustang in 1973, a Trojan Horse 2 shoed by Dale Pulde, and a 1979 Mustang to close out the 1970s. Kevin Doheny was heir to the Doheny fortune, hooking up with Fullerton in 1969. Said Fullerton at the time, “He wanted to go racing but didn’t have the experience. I had plenty of that but was missing the one thing he had plenty of.” Fullerton was tragically killed as a passenger in a 1981 traffic accident.
