Dwaine Davis is the only Pontiac name I see on the Stock Q-list.

Chris Stephenson is on the SS Q-list. Don't know if he's racing his Bird or the Apollo. Since he's running GT/MA, I'm guessing the Apollo.

Ended up with 4 Pontiac powered Stockers, on the Q-list. Chris Stephenson was #41, Dwaine Davis was #60, Ronald Prince was #63. At #80, Denny Nelson is listed as the driver of a '74 GTO. Not familiar with that name. I suppose it could be the car Brad Koivisto has been driving. Anybody know, for sure ?

Chris has survived at least 2 rounds. Unfortunately, he put Ronald Prince out, in E-2.

Billy Nees finished in the #7 position, with a .963 under pass of 12.837. That's pretty good for a non-turbo 301. Chad Smith was #73.

Now I can spot at least 4 Pontiac powered Super Stockers. Don Kennedy wound up at #4 on SS Q-list, with a 1.007 under run of 9.093, in his alum head 428 powered Sunfire. Todd Frantz has a 428 powered Cobalt. Casey McCarty has an '87 Firebird, & Jack Good, has a '78 Firebird.

Some cars at this race are tuning up for the big race at Indy, next week. May take a run of quicker than .800 under the index, just to make the 128 car field.
