THE LOADED QUESTION-er

The Loaded One has begun training for the Holiday Season, and got in his first workouts Tuesday night. Since my budget has been greatly reduced over the past few years, I had to go with Night Train Express rather than a 1977 Fonseca Port and the resultant gibberish is the end product ... as you will soon see.

1.) One of the best and frequently used fuel crew chiefs in the sport is Johnny West. Which one of the cars below did West NOT crew chief (how about that, made it a verb) or advise for? I mean this like a contracted agreement, not just one or two races.
A.) Jim Epler's Funny Car B.) Rob Vandergriff's Top Fueler	C.) Kenny Bernstein's Top Fueler D.) John Smith's Top Fueler
2.) Did you know that Whit Bazemore's crew chief, Lee Beard, was also a driver of fuel cars and did all right. Which one of these cars did Beard NOT drive?
A.) Mark Whitted B.) Jerry Ruth	C.) Tom Brown's B&B Special D.) John Foderaro
3.) TRUE OR FALSE and don't look this up; you're on your honor here. Lee Zane, the 2004 NHRA Stock Eliminator world champ is the first Sportsman driver whose last name begins with a "Z" to win such an honor. You've got 10 seconds. GO!
A.) True	B .) False
4.) Current Kalitta Racing Crew Chief, or at least one of them, Rahn Tobler, will always be remembered as the head wrench for Hall of Famer Shirley Muldowney. However, he has a long track record as a tuner that goes back a couple of decades. In a kind of reversal of reform, only ONE of these below was tuned by him. Who?
A.) Marvin Graham's Top Fueler B.) The Stan Rosen-Chuck Kurzawa "Ego Trip" Top Fueler	C.) G.L Rupp's Top Fueler D.) Paul Longenecker's Top Fueler
5.) Most know that Cory McClenathan's Top Fuel ride is backed by the Carrier Boyz and Berryman. Mark Carrier, a son of the former IHRA boss Larry and co-backer, achieved reasonable fame and success about 10 years ago in another sport. What was it?
A.) college wrestling B.) college baseball	C.) pro boxing D.) professional pool
