A couple pics forwarded by Mike's brother Bill:
I suspect the shoe polish number (and sheepish grin) betrays a spirited day of racing at "Lapeer International Dragway". K

Keith
I feel like The Lone Ranger, everyone is going around me and I'm the last standing. Not sure why either, I'm nobody special. I almost feel guilty in a way. Mike Nixon hit me the worst, I really wanted him to hang on and fight. I'm a bit over taken by it all. We have actually had half a dozen die in the last year it seems within our local chapter and couple from clubs close to us. It's out of control insane.

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.
