John Myers wins his first US Nationals Pro Stock Bike title before winning again in 1998 until tragedy happened and was killed in a motorcycle accident. Kurt Johnson wins back-to-back in Pro Stock Car, and finally Whit Bazemore and Jim Head made their only upset victories in the Nitro Funny Car and Top Fuel dragsters.
