Saturday, September 7th, 8:00 am – 3:00 pm:
The All Pontiac Car Show will be on the grounds of the Cavanaugh Flight Museum in Addison, TX. The show field will be a combined – indoor and outdoor setup with Pontiacs parked inside the hanger or outside on the Cavanaugh grounds at the airport. And there will be plenty of vintage planes and military vehicles on the grounds as well – there will even be a tank! The car show entry fee includes admission to the Flight Museum for those arriving in the show car.
Pontiac fans, family and spectators arriving in vehicles other than show cars will enter the car show and Flight Museum via the Cavanaugh Flight Museum entrance and pay the museum admission fees.
Sunday, September 8th, Gates open at 8:00 am:
The PSN Drag Race Day will be back at our favorite quarter mile track, the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, TX. To spice things up this year, the PSN Race event will be held in conjunction with the Texas Muscle Car Club Challenge. The TMCCC is a car club vs. car club venue that has dates scheduled throughout the year, and DAPA always participates. Combined with PSN on Sunday, Sept. 8 will allow PSN Pontiacs to race against Chevys, Fords, Mopars and whatever else is in the other lane.

That is so cool, my T/A would look killer parked next to that jet. I'm getting real stoked about the new venue. I'd like to get the T/A as well as the 68 out this year. The T/A needs a fuel pump though, ugh. I can deal with that but I have another deadline right about the same time. My wife's due date is about two weeks after PSN. :whoo: So, it will probably be a game time decision what I can really do this year.:lalala::faint::D

Here is an update to the plans for the 2013 Pontiac Southern Nationals, you don’t want to miss what we have in store at this great event.
As you know by now, this year the PSN is in September on Saturday, Sept 7 and Sunday, Sept 8. The Saturday Car Show will be unique; it’s always been an all Pontiac show, but this year the Pontiacs will be sharing the spotlight with vintage Planes! The car show will be at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum in Addison! The PSN Pontiacs will be parked in and around a Cavanaugh Hangar, the Planes will be on display on the grounds. The Sunday drag race will still be at the best quarter mile strip in the area – The Texas Motorplex in Ennis.
And the Update includes the Cavanaugh Fall Fly Days! This is an event done by the Cavanaugh Flight Museum in conjunction with the Pontiac Southern Nationals. Here is just part of the schedule for Fall Fly Days: 4 P-51 Mustangs in formation flybys, Aircraft Carrier demonstration, Sherman Tank demo, Warbird Rides, Troop Transport rides – and that’s not all, the list goes on!
The PSN Flyer is attached. Please print and mark your calendars, and feel free to forward to your Pontiac Buddies. Additional PSN details are available on our website www.dapa.org
Oh, and I almost forgot, the Bombshell Girls will be there posing for photos with Planes and Pontiacs.

Agree!
The Cavanaugh flight museum in Addison TX, what a cool place! For those into vintage airplanes, you should make it out there. Looking at many of the old warplanes really makes you respect those WWII pilots and crew. They had many airworthy planes on display, coolest was the B24 bomber and the P51 Mustangs. The front gunner position on the B24 required a very large set of you know what :eek: Later in the day they had 2 P51's and a British Spitfire go-up together and they made several passes over the car show in different formations. COOL!

I want to thank Everyone who attended the PSN! It takes a lot of dedicated people to put on an event like this. It also takes equally dedicated people to show and race their cars. This event would not be possible without you!
PSN 2013 has come to a close. The attendance was up from last year and the quality of cars was amazing. I hope everyone had a good time.
Please talk us up over the next year, we are already looking forward to PSN 2014. We hope to see you there!
Keep the photos coming!
RicksGTO
09-09-2013, 11:32 AM
it was a very well run show! The club did a great job and the venue with all the planes and shade from the hangers was a great choice.
I was also looking at the front gun turret on that B-24 and thinking you were basically signing up for a suicide mission every time you went up and encountered enemy planes.
I want to commend the presenters of the awards for retaining their ability to form words and speak clearly with the two bombshell girls handing out the trophies....holy smokes that was distracting :)

There was quite a drama played out at the PSN that probably none
of you that attended were aware of. Ken Smith, who owns the black with red interior
Judge in the above pictures was sitting next to his car at about 11 am when he started having
bad chest pains. His good friend Lonnie, who had just left when the pain started was still in
the parking lot when he got a call from Ken to take him to the hospital. Lonnie loaded Ken
up in his car and they decided to take Ken to the fire station a block away. In fifteen minutes
they had Ken on the operating table at Baylor Hospital. He had a total blockage of the
main artery feeding his heart , the blockage that medical staff refer to as the "widow maker".
They were able to put in a stent in the nick of time and Ken is at home now recuperating.
Lonnie went back to the show to take care of Ken's Judge and at the award ceremony, the
car won best of show, with Lonnie accepting on Ken's behalf. Medical staff at the hospital
said that Ken was probably ten minutes away from death when they got the stent in. Ken
is one of my best friends and I've done a lot of resto work on his cars including all the resto
work on the black Judge other than exterior paint. I didn't find out about what happened till
last night.

I talked with Ken for several minutes while teching his car for judging. I had no idea this was happening. I am so glad he is going to be ok.

Holy Smokes Ken is a very lucky guy! Glad they made some smart moves getting him to the Hospital. He also owns a 68 Hemi Charger? The Black 69 Judge still looks showroom. I 1st saw it at the 2010 Fort Worth Car show at Amon Carter. RicksGTO's 72 Formula was stunning also! Great show and venue. DAPA did another excellent job.

thanks Al, that was my favorite venue for a car show as well. P-51's and Pontiacs just seem to go together!

What a great show, especially with the added venue of the airport museum. Thank you DAPA! I was not able to participate in the show but I did spectate with my son and nephew. Thanks to those who posted pictures, I let my nephew handle the picture taking at the show as I had my son but he chopped off the front and back of most of the cars making for a lot of ‘door’ shots, lol. I did go to the track on Sunday, brought everything needed to open the dumps, adjust the timing, and move the shift points. First couple of baseline passes I just left off idle and had the shift points set kinda low. The passes were ok, uneventful, except that I tossed and mangled my alternator belt. I was done after that but the car was a little faster than last year. There’s more in it and I’ll keep at it. Here are some pics!
