The only track I haven't been to that I still want to go to is Talladega - I'll let you know when I'm planning on being in town.

How come it's only at Nascar races that you get jackasses that pay for seats, but hardly ever sit in them, and have no problems at any dirt tracks with people standing the whole time, nor hardly standing ever!

I've been to a lot of NASCAR races (more than most here) and people sit in their seats most of the time.

Yes, many stand up for the restarts, but as I mentioned earlier, that's mostly so they can stretch...

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.
