Boss Bird Behind The Scenes
This video popped up in my YouTube feed. It's been awhile since I watched it. It's a unique view from the crew standpoint of sending it downtrack.

The Bono glasses at 5:30 are epic.
Michael had the helmet cam.

it took me a little while to getting around to watching this one;
It offers a really neat perspective from a pit crew member - thanks for sharing this.

We surrounded ourselves with people who knew what they were doing and we paid attention. The NHRA pro teams were very open to helping us.
Fun fact: our record-setting 250 mph run was done on a set of used tires off Leah Pruett's TF car from Gainesville 2019. They would run them 4-6 laps and then get rid of them. Most of those tires end up getting donated to the tracks to use on the track drag. But if you know somebody who knows somebody, the DSR team would bring a pair home for us every spring. Eric

It's in a private museum. We don't know the location.

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.
