Pat Breslin
Pat Breslin was a member of the Street Angels of Santa Rosa. Fellow club member Mike Bertolucci remembers Pat racing a Chevrolet El Camino with a 511 rear end, a big block Chevrolet and a 50 pound bag of cement to hold the rear down. Those were the days when Big Daddy Garlits was racing at the same strip with a dragster with a blown Ford flathead engine. Nothing like todays monsters. The biggest laugher was when Tommy Ivo from Los Angeles would show up with his dynamite girls in tow and try to beat Big Daddy. Mike believes this was before Don Prudhomme was getting into it, and Cha Cha Muldowney was just getting started.[1]
