Let Us Know You Are Coming To The Nats!
WHO IS COMING TO THE NATIONALS????
Post the city & state you are coming from, as well as a space number if you have one! I will be there Friday & Sunday with the '64 G.P. as unfortunately Saturday is not only our class reunion, but our Wedding Anniversary. I am blessed that Laura would have been fine with being there on our anniversary had it not been our reunion as well  God Bless Bill https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...closed.614419/

Rolled in yesterday at about 9:00AM & stayed well past 5:00PM
I am blessed to be only about 13 miles from the track, so I didn't even have to get up early!  I got to see a bunch of friends from all over the country I only get to see once or twice a year. It was a great day, weather was nice & the smoke was barely noticeable. I won't be there today as I promised the Wife we would be at the "All Class" high school reunion today since we missed it the last two years, because it was scheduled on a weekend that we are at a Lloydfest Car show in Kentucky. I hope to be back Sunday morning, but hope the weather holds out for you guys & gals as today is the "Big Day". A bit bummed that I won't get the G.P. judged, but I didn't build it for trophies so no biggie. God Bless Bill https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...closed.614419/

Great To Finally Meet You Bob! Time sure does fly, I'll bet we sat there for more than 2 hours "shooting the bull"  . After we split I watched about 15 minutes of racing, when I got back to my car there was a flyer on my seat with a note asking me to call about putting the G.P. in the Dayton Concours d'Elegance Sept. 20th. I will call him today, Laura got all excited about it. LOLI had a great time both Friday & Sunday, even though most folks left late Saturday or early Sunday. God Bless Bill https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...closed.614419/

So close ( 4.5 hours) yet probably not going. No old Pontiac car, and the 421 build is 2nd priority. I keep saying one of these years...

Lets see if we can actually meet in person this time! I will be there early Friday & will have my '64 G.P. in the show parking area. This goes for everybody else I have not yet met in person! Also looking forward to see friends from all over the country that I only see a couple times per year. God Bless Bill https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...closed.614419/

Nice to hear some of the details. I live in Sandusky, & drive for R&L Carriers across the street. I seen quite a few nice Ponchos Friday morning & Friday evening while I was walking across the dock. It made me want to go Saturday, but I needed to use that time to get the Firebird up & runnin, so we can make the Trans Am Nats next month. Hopefully we'll get to Norwalk next year. 🤞

I will be there Friday and Saturday. My original plan was to make this the maiden voyage for my 73 SD-455 TA. But advanced weather forecasts don't look good for either day. High winds, heavy downpours, thunderstorms and hail possible both days. So taking the car will be a last minute decision.

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.
