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. ![]() https://www.facebook.com/john.clegg.16 I assume the '74 in the background of the 1st pic, is the Stocker, driven by Hunter Pierdolla. |

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. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Hoping for another big Pontiac week. Good luck ya'll.

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

Looks like the '74 Birds driven by Hunter Pierdolla & J.B. Clegg, are indeed the only Pontiac powered cars entered, at the div 4 race. Hunter turned an .870 under 11.28, and J.B. turned a .732 under 9.81.

They're supposed to run the 1st round of Stock & SS today. But, there is another rain delay. May have to run the whole show tomorrow.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Looks like all 4 Super Stock Pontiacs are back, from last weeks Vegas race. Don Kennedy is qualified #5. ![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 04-09-2016 at 04:02 PM. |

Wow ! J.B. Clegg got his '74 SD455 Bird down to a 9.75. I assume it is the quickest non-GT, Pontiac powered Super Stock car.

Well, I thought Vegas was in the desert, and had very little rain.
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourcei...ual%20rainfall But, they've had rain delays 3 days in a row. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop There are over 600 cars there. So, even if they're able to restart today, don't think they'll have time to finish. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...10699#indextop They usually finish the national events on Monday, if necessary. But, I don't know if they'll do that for a div race or not ? Sometimes they finish 'em at one or more later div events. Last edited by ponyakr; 04-10-2016 at 03:04 PM. |

There's a div 2 race today and tomorrow at zMAX. Looks like there are 3 Pontiac powered Stockers--Randi Lyn Shipp's 1st gen, Adam Davis' 2nd gen and Dave Ribeiro's '77 Lemans, which might be the car Bob Michael ran last year. Anybody know for sure ?

The 3 Pontiacs finished #9, #11, & #13, in a 67 car field. These are some quick Pontiacs Stockers, ya'll.

No, it ain't a class car, but it was a BIG win for Pontiac power ! So, I'll add my congrats to Jeff Verdi for his big win at the K&N Spring Fling.
Great job Jeff ! ![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop |

Michael Brand & Adam Davis survived round 1 at zMAX.
![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop There are 3 rounds of Stock on today's schedule--round 2 before noon--round 3 toward the end of the show, closer to sundown. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop |

Michael Brand has the only Pontiac to survive round 2, as his opponent left too quick.

Well, it appears that they never got around to running round 3 of Stock today, as scheduled.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r=100#indextop But, they posted a list of class winners. Michael Brand is shown as the G/SA winner. And Adam Davis is listed as winner of the Auto Combo class. So, congrats to both ! http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop I assume Michael will race tomorrow, in round 3.

They finally posted the third round of Stock. Michael Brand moves on to round 4, since his opponent tripped the red light.

In Texas, Hunter Pierdolla survived round 1 of Stock, with his H/SA '74 Bird.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop And, J.B. Clegg made it thru 2 rounds of Super Stock, with his SS/I '74 Bird. ![]() http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 04-24-2016 at 10:52 AM. |
