Mark Oswald is an American Funny Car driver.

Driving for Candies and Hughes, in 1984 Oswald did something no Funny Car driver had done before: he won both the NHRA and IHRA world championships.[1] The team took four IHRA titles between 1983 and 1987, including two in a row, 1986 and 1987, as well as beating John Force in the 1986 Big Bud Shootout (losing to him the next year).[2]

After retiring as a driver, Oswald became “a very successful crew chief”.[3]
