I remember Phil taking Chris Cassperson's GTO down the strip at PITP. The gas cap had been left off, and he spewed a gasoline stripe for probably 200 feet!

Met Phil at Norwalk at least 20 years ago. Always the life of the party and a great guy. Another good dude taken too soon. I'm sure he's doing massive burnouts in his 65 right now not worrying about taking out the spider gears..

Wow, I was just thinking about him. I set up his ring and pinion at Norwalk one year after he broke the carrier. Great guy.
RIP Phil.

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.
