I have discovered that the EG&G application note talking about
critically damped RLC circuits with a spark gap is now available on the
web:

Now, this talks about the stuff for flash tubes, however, by suitable
(?!) adjustment of the Ko parameter in the Goncz equation, it should
work for an air spark gap.
