Great few days at Norwalk- now headed back to TX….

Swap meet was great- finally picked up a 58 Tri Power air cleaner for the Bonneville and grabbed a set of red anodized valve covers.

Pit area was amazing as always! I saw several female drivers and am glad to see our hobby expanding.

I was surprised at the show field- great selection as expected, but a few changes. Many 04-06 GTO’s. Maybe our group is finally coming around?

No Can Am’s (except a cool black one), no 10th Anniversary cars, I’m not even sure if I saw a black and gold 77-81 TA?

I’m thinking that the 2nd Gen guys may have chosen the TA Nats over Norwalk.

Lots of 69-77 Grand Prix’. More than I remember seeing

If your still at the event. Please stop by on the show side of the track and say hi to Arnie Beswick. He is 93 years old this year. How many more chances will you have to spend a little time with a living legend of drag racing, still sharp with great stories to tell. No longer driving, Arnie lives for his time at the track with his Pontiac friends. You won't be sorry.

For your viewing pleasure.

No I did not. We just went for the swap meet and show. I took it to the POCI Nationals in Murfreesboro a few weeks ago and did well with it. I really have only shown it a few times. Still working on getting everything right. Need to pull the motor and put the correct block in the car. I only need a 273 carb and 941 distributor to have it complete. I have a 68 carb (GTO 4 speed 263) and distributor on the car now just not RA II.

I would like to find out more history about the car. I have noticed a lot of high performance Pontiacs were sold out of Seltzer Pontiac in Chicago. Several of the early Super Duty cars on display were from Seltzer as well as Jim Mattisons 68 RA II GTO. I did a "deep dive" on Mattisons car when it was at Mecum this year. It has changed hands twice since he owned it.

Maybe it will be ready for next year. It is just over 1,000 miles one way for me. I have raced at that track several times in the past.
