Default New England Nats & Indy

There's a big race on the East coast & a div 3 race at Indy. On the pre-entry list at the N.E. Nats I saw 3 Pontiac powered entries. They are Randi Lyn Shipp & Adam Strang, in Stock, & Eddie Bloom, in S/ST.

There should be quite a few Pontiacs at Indy. Also, D3TV should be showing the live action.

And, it looks like Greg Meyer, Don Kennedy, & Mike Morgan will be representing Pontiac in SS.

Doug Kroft & Tim Gillespie are running S/G.

Ken MacNicol is running S/ST.

If ya'll know of any other Pontiac powered cars in this race, please post that info.

Here's the DRC qualifying lists. I see there is a Pontiac Stocker I missed. It is a '73 Bird driven by Karson Kuhn. I assume he is a relative of Todd Kuhn, since they are from the same city & both driving Pontiacs.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...er=30#indextop

In SS, Greg Meyer is #16.

I'm over from England at the race watching and Randi won 3rd round too. She seems to be dialled in this weekend.

Congrats to The Pontiacmaniac Randi Lyn on winning the Epping national!!!


Also
Good weekend Kenny! I thought Randi Lyn winning might have gave us some momentum in the late rounds.....

Good to finally talk to Bill Allen
And the Koon family....Fun watching those class cars!

Lookin back at some of the round wins, thought I'd better mention that Chris Stephenson made it to the Stock semi-final round, where he left too early. It was a shame too, because his opponent cut a bad light. Could have won that round with any sort of a decent run. But, you don't have the advantage of hindsight, when you line up against an opponent.

Ryan Warter is the only Pontiac name I could spot at this race. Maybe Brad Burton will show up later.

Here are the DRC Q-lists. Billy Foder & Karson Kuhn showed up, @ the bottom of the Stock list. Looks like Karson had some problems.
