Well this is sad
 

Just an indication of how bad the race section has gotten here (people being banned or run off or just quite racing). Norwalk the biggest Pontiac race of the year is next week and not a single thread in the race section about it. Use to be pages and pages about it and who was going, who was calling out who, what was the Q16 bump going to be (which appears to be getting slower the last few years that's sad also). Now just crickets. Sad!!
It's interesting to search back and read threads from years past. The good old days are no more. PY isn't what it once was.

I think things slowed down around here when it became clear EHTTFMF's!

A lot of hopes, dreams and budgets were shattered. Many folks are still licking their wounds. :D

Still some good people chime in here from time to time. My junk is to slow to post progress in the race section

I stopped going when I could not get a non stop flight to Cleveland that was not a redeye,at close to 80 im not doing redeyes or flights involving stops.I REALLY miss it along with the ICE CREAM!I REALLY enjoyed the HU NA races.Tom

Your race was amazing. Too bad it ended.

I'm glad Tom started that effort and let me co-sponsor the first one, since I love heads-up competition (amateur, not pro). I had to move over to landspeed racing to be involved with it.

Agree with the lack of posts on Norwalk, and I'm as guilty as anybody. But I am planning on going and running with the Nostalgia Super Stock guys. I wouldn't mind trying to qualify for the quick 16 too if that's
allowed. Any guess whether 8.70's will make the field on the door side?

I think the bump last year was low 9s. So yes 8.7 should

Since George was ran off, it went down hill. He always kept the pot stirring

OK, I'll bite. I go every year to check out the fast cars and see if anybody sets a new record. Part of me wants our 250 mph to stand forever and part of me wants somebody to raise the bar, for the sake of all Pontiacs.

Any ideas who's gonna step up??

One of the twin turbo efforts should hit the mph record at some point. Takes a great chassis to do it.

I know the Kauffman's rail is getting a new Hemi headed Pontiac powerplant for Norwalk. It makes a BUNCH of horsepower on the dyno. Have to see it they can get it ready in time for the meet.

EHTTMFM's whats that mean

i dont think its just the race section....just aint awhole lot going on here at py no more, i guess everyone likes fb better. i myself still like coming here

I agree I prefer here vs FB.

Calling out leads to- trash talking leads to- bickering.... majority left this forum when latter half of activity was allowed- SOSDD
Not that way now... maybe due to ownership change- idk. Don't like FB cuz all the ads, but said 'majority' has populated and established different venues- damage has been done

Facebook has nothing on this forum. Here threads are started and answers givin in a orderly fashion. FB you get the same regurgitated answers that the last ill informed person repeats. maybe its my age but FB is a horrible way to learn stuff.

E'heads to the front my friend's

You can give good real life experience answers to people's questions and there are 20 inexperienced answers that are the opposite. The masses get praised while the outcome is totally predictable. Wonder why racers with allot of experience don't post? Be real people.

I'm telling you it's the E'head thing :D
