As much as we love them they did have their flaws and this was a biggy; Too much power for the chassis when in the wrong hands and these cars attracted just those wrong hands.

Sad for the driver and his family.
A G8 GXP along with new Challengers with the Hemi, new Camaros with the V8 and others have even more horsepower than cars of the lates 60s/early 70s. So this can happen today. No need to blame old cars.

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.
