Yep, I'll have my Tempest Coupe there again. I'm trailering this year since I haven't yet done all the maintenance I need to do to trust it on the drive from the Chicago area. You can read all about last year's adventure with Tempest here.

I just placed my Ames order for show pickup. I didn't realize they do a 5% cash discount for show pickup, so score! After the show season, I'll be doing a new cam/lifters, carb rebuild, and complete suspension rebuild (front & back). Also, refinishing the stock XE wheels, Deluxe covers, and getting the Coker BFG dual white strip G78-14s. Going back to pure stock with this one.

I'd love to see your car! You racing or showing?

Well what can I say as a first timer...overwhelmed and impressed. The track and staff were great .
CNC and I had a spot in the track area thanks to Form 74 and his neighbours.
Show field had some of the nicest cars ive seen. Swap area very impressive.
So we arrived at noon and unpacked then teched the car .
So Trash can...im happy how the car worked in the heat. Tire pressure adj and got a 11:14 122. Swapped to the T-2 big carb and and a hour later 10 :98 124 .
Me and Chris swapped back to the RPM and quad . Big carb has something wrong with it. We went Saturday morn into town with it numbered and drag radials did some grocery shopping. Came back unloaded and they called for street class. ....quickly got to the lane and got a 11:02....happy happy. The track prep was the key.
Cant say enough about the staff there , I thanked them. Met some great folks and saw some beautiful race cars that ran hard.
Had a blast....

Another year in the Books, Great Time seeing old Friends and meeting new ones. Some good racing and some Bad A$$ Cars.

No problem saving the spot for you Andy (Torquewar) and Chris (CNC).

Is it August 2019 so we can do it again.

I'll be driving one of my vintage Pontiacs again this year from Arizona. Probably towing something to deliver too. Will have a space in the midway area behind the stands to promote Pontiac Heaven events ( now in its 21st year ) and the Pontiac Heaven Museum project located in eastern Az. Will have some shirts to sell. Stop by and say hello. pontiacheaven.org

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
