There'll be quite a few Pontiac powered cars in action, between all these events.

They've got rain in div 3.

Unfortunately, 2 of the Pontiac Stockers had to run each other in round 1.

But, 3 of 'em move on to round 2--Randi Lyn, Ryan Warter, & Brad Burton.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

Doug Jones made it thru 2 rounds of S/ST.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

And, Curtis Geise won his 1st round of S/G.

Hey ya'll, we got a chance for an all Pontiac Stock final, at the Northwest Nationals ! Ryan Warter gets the semi-final bye run. So, if Brad Burton can win his semi-final, he'll run Ryan in the final. How cool is that ?

Also, Doug Jones is still alive, in S/ST.

Default S/ST

They decided to run the S/ST final in 2 weeks, at the div race there. So, we won't know til then if we'll have another Pontiac powered National event winner, or not.

There are videos of the Stock final & semi-final, on Don Kennedy's Facebook page.

Default Div 5

There's a div 5 race this week. There are 2 Pontiac Stockers entered, which I am not familiar with. One is a '74 GTO, driven by Bradley Koivisto. The other is a '68 Bird, driven by Ronald Prince. I found some pics of the Bird.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop

Greg Meyer is entered in SS, with his 3rd gen GT/GA Bird.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop

Good luck guys !

Default Lucas Oil Nationals

Well, there's a national event & a couple of div races, this weekend. The national event is at BIR.

Looks like 4 Pontiac powered Stockers--Randi Lyn Shipp, Bradley Koivisto, Ronald Prince, & Sam Reuland.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

Brad Koivisto won his I/SA class with his '74 GTO.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

There are 2 Super Stockers. Greg Meyer is qualified #2, and Bill Rink is #6.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

Both cars should pick up their class wins.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

There's a div race on the East coast & the West coast.

At Brainerd, Sam Reuland survived 2 rounds of Stock, and Greg Meyer made it thru 2 rounds of SS. So, they'll get to race on Sat.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop


Out on the West coast, Brad Burton tripped the red light, with a -.001, to lose the Stock final, in the div 6 race. This was a make up race for an earlier div 6 race, that was rained out. So, there's more racing to come out there, this weekend.

Default Div 6

At the div 6 race, Brad Burton qualified #2, with a 1.013 under 10.537, in his D/SA '72 Formula. This qualifying is for the 2nd race of the weekend.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

Also, the rained out S/ST final, from the Northwest Nationals, will be run at this event. Doug Jones has a chance to win this one, with his '69 Bird.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop

So, good luck to all the Pontiac racers this weekend !

Default Div 1

On the East coast, it looks like there are 2 Pontiac powered Stockers entered. There's Todd Hoven, with his '68 Bird, and Michael Moyer, with his '78 Bird. I'm not familiar with that 2nd gen Bird. Just assume it has Pontiac power.

http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop

Unfortunately, the Stock & SS Pontiacs were eliminated, at Brainerd, in round 3.
