Dick Landy, nicknamed "Dandy Dick", was an American drag racer.

In 1965, Landy's A/FX Dodge Coronet (the former Jack Chrisman car[1]) was one of the first funny cars.[2]

Landy won the Street class at the Winternats in 1968, following with a win in Modififed there in 1969. At the 1970 Winternationals, he beat Herb McCandless' Sox and Martin Plymouth Duster, when McCandless redlighted.[3]

Landy would reach a final round only once more, at the 1972 Summernats at Englishtown; he would lose to Grumpy Jenkins.[4]
