Four-time Top Fuel champion Shirley Muldowney, who was hospitalized in Las Vegas suffering from gastroenteritis, has returned to her home in Michigan.  She had planned on being a part of the celebration of Wally Parks’s life on Sunday, but is physically unable to be in Pomona.  “I’m feeling a little better,” she said by telephone.  “I’m very weak, and this thing has really knocked me down.  I’ve been hurt before (in racing accidents), but nothing like this.”  Muldowney lost a considerable amount of weight during her hospital stay, where she was assisted by her sister, Linda Roque.
