Default Sunday Elims--Vegas

They decided to run 2 rounds of Stock and SS elims, before the Pros run. Brad & Leo both survived both rounds, in Stock.

Leo also won round 4, in SS, but tripped the red light in round 5.

Leo gets the bye, in the semi-finals. So, if Brad can win his race, it'll be an all Pontiac final, in Stock ! How cool is that ?

The only difference Jack, is Pontiac was IN BUSINESS in 1961! Congratulations to all Pontiac class racers. What a great weekend. How many Saturns, Saabs, Oldsmobiles, Buicks, and Hummers are in the winners circle 6 years after being canned by the parent company and 35 years after their engine platform was killed off. Great job guys!

Default San Antonio

Well, while the guys were doing good in NHRA races this past weekend, J.B. Clegg had a good weekend at the IHRA race, in Texas.

They had a double header. J.B. got RU at the 1st race & made it to the semi-finals, in the second race, with his '74 SD455 SS Bird(the old H-O car). His dad, John Clegg, won the last race. But, I don't think John is running Pontiac power in his 3rd gen. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. Anyhow, congrats to the Clegg's for a great weekend of racing.

I assume the '74 in the background of the 1st pic, is the Stocker, driven by Hunter Pierdolla.

Default 2 Div Races

This weekend there is a div 4 race at No Problem Raceway, in Belle Rose, LA.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

The only Pontiac powered cars I know of, that might be there, are J.B. Clegg's '74 Bird Super Stocker, and Hunter Pierdolla's '74 Bird Stocker.

There's also a div 7 race, in Vegas. I assume that most of the Pontiacs that were there last weekend, will be entered this week.

Hoping for another big Pontiac week. Good luck ya'll.

Default Vegas Q-1

I think I can count 8 Pontiac powered Stockers, in the 1st round of qualifying, at Vegas.
