Default Roundy rounder update…

On second year of sponsoring a factory stock 350ci Pontiac in a sea of chevies with the rules bent in their favor.
Previous two races we’re finally getting the car sorted out with a 6th place and last weekend’s feature event running 4th place (cut tire) dnf.. The last race was a two day event with a qualifying heat race which we finished 4th.
Driver (Eric) is getting some good seat time and getting quicker. Each car is clocked on lap time and the poncho was running the second fastest in a 17 car field. Racers and track officials are taking notice.

Hi Gary, factory stock uses a gm metric chassis, 3000 lb min weight (we’re at 3300, driver Eric 6’6”, 350 lbs, big boy). 350 cubes, 4412 Holley, standard 3speed, or automatic (we’re using the st300 poncho tranny). 7.5 gm rear.

Engines are basically mild setups with, minimum vacuum rule, .450 max lift cam, 180psi max cranking psi, factory heads (for us), chevies get to use aftermarket.

Pic Eric watches while his pop is wrenching, haha
