Drag Week is a competition but most that do it don't go with the promise of winning any awards. That's not really what it's about. 1st three places in each class get a plaque and the winner in each class gets a jacket. It's more about finishing the week and having a blast on a 1000+ mile road trip with hundreds of the best people (and cars) you'll ever meet! Any awards are just icing on the cake!

My wife and I have been in the last 3 years and can't wait for next year. I've never placed or won any awards of any kind but have finished every year along with hitting my personal goals during the week.

It would be great to have another fast Pontiac on Drag Week!

Oh, I understand the concept and thrill. I'm going to seriously consider it. (Admittedly, I do have a competitive side to me).

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.
