Well, I suppose the big news today is that Adam Strang ran a 10.376, in his '68 Bird, running in the D/S class. That's more than a sec under the 11.50 index. Don't know if that's the car's best ET, in D/S, or not.
Anyhow, it was quick enuff to win the Stick Combo class, at the Baby Gators race. For any who may not know, that class is for all the stick cars that were the only car in their class. There were 6 of these stick cars total. He had to run a Pinto wagon, in the final, & give it about a 5 sec head start. I think he was going about 128mph when he passed it. The Pinto probably felt the turbulence. By the way, I may have posted this. Can't remember & not gonna search for it. It's worth mentioning again. Found this class winners/RU list from the '79 US Nats. Quite a few famous Pontiac names from the past, on the list. Truman Fields in B/S. Mike McKinney in E/S. Rock Running in E/SA, Ray Stover in F/SA, & Mick Leiferman in H/SA. There were also Pontiacs on the list, in L/S, N/S, & N/SA. There were also 2 Pontiac SS cars on the list. I'll post 'em here, rather than making a special post on the SS thread. They was John Clegg in SS/I, & Bob Michael, in SS/IA. Both were SD455 powered.
