"Yep, with that run he went from 4th to 3rd for Quickest Naturally Aspirated Pontiac Ever. Still currently first in NA door cars and Fastest Naturally Aspirated Pontiac ever ...181mph (-might even include bonneville!)" ??????????????????? 4th to 3rd fastest NA Pontiac then in the same sentence Fastest NA ever???

Tom, 4th to 3rd fastest Pontiac "Vehicle" then states fastest "Door Car". Two different rankings.

Yea hard for me to clarify so everyone understands in one sentence. Rod Page and his RED held the thrid spot "quickest" with a 7.63 ET. Scott continues to hold the "Fastest" with the 181mph. It's really something look at again when the NOS, Turbos, and Superchargers are almost or just on the other side of that 200mph barrier.
Man does that car look good...even the tiny thumbnail pic! -Rob |

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">beautiful ride scott...i hope you beat up on the top sportsman guys all over the east coast this year.
were you running at the grove last weekend? </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Not at the Grove, but Jack G and I will be running Top Sportsman at Atco April 8-9-10 for the NHRA spring open. Top Sportsman is new for Division 1 this year. Most guys from this area go south or west to run Top Sportsman. On a side note, I'm not trying to be on a list or be the quickest or fastest anything. Just trying to see how fast I can get a Pontiac to go for my own satisfaction. I remember over 20 years ago with my stock RA3 70 TA running 14.50 and saying "If I could get this thing to run 13's, I'd be happy." Now, if I ran 5 flat I would try to go 4.99. There's no end to it. |

Congradulations Scott,
I must say, that is a good looking car. Believe it or not guys Scott has enough MPH to run in the 7.30's at a good track. It is very exciting to see traditional pontiacs closing in on the six second barrier normally aspirrated. Keep pushing Scott, its guys like you Bruce Michael, and all the other die hard Pontiac enthusiast's out there that inspire companies like myself, BOP, Allpontiac, etc. etc. to develop new products for the traditional Pontiac raceers. Not to mention the inspiration you give your fellow racers. Sincerely Don Johnston DCI MOTORSPORTS LLC 330-628-3354 |

I like your front bling-bling wheels.I heard you got the gold off the rear wheels.
If I had couple of gold front teeth or Ray Cox's car I would have left my rear center wheels gold but thats just not me. |

That is rolling dude!!As mentioned ealrier you reset you goals once you reach them.Last year I went 9.41 and am looking to make a 8.50 pass with the new car this year.That would be on a small shot of gass.To do that on hp like this seems out of reach for me.I know this hobby takes up allot of time and money with little return in moneys form but that time slip is priceless in my book.Keep up the good work.Brian

Yes, thanks for recommending Harlow. They did a great job for a great price. Weld now sells rear Magnums with polished centers. <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">can we see a motor picture pretty please.... </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Engine pics |

Scott,
Very nice car and impressive numbers for the new chassis, looking forward to seeing it soon, up close and personal. Jack, I was thinking the same thing about the stripe, must make it a little easier for Scott too having parted with the 70, out with old and in with the new. Herb
