Dick Atkins
Richard Charles Atkins (April 23, 1936-November 13, 1966) was an American racing driver from Oakland, California.
Atkins came up in sprint cars and won the Turkey Night Grand Prix in 1965 and was rewarded by race promoter J. C. Agajanian with a chance to race in the USAC National Championship in 1966. He failed to qualify for the 1966 Indianapolis 500, but finished fourth at Trenton Speedway in September then won on the dirt oval at Sacramento in October, for his first "big car" win. However, he was killed in a sprint car crash at Ascot Park in California just a month later in a wreck that also killed Don Branson.[1] He finished 12th in 1966 USAC National Championship points.

The general slogan is that weak functors can be replaced by strict functors between fibrant-cofibrant objects, but weak transformations can’t necessarily be replaced by strict ones. For instance, this is why the Gray tensor product is useful: it’s designed to handle strict functors and weak transformations.
