Looks like all the Pontiacs survived E-1.
That includes Dean Ribeiro, in his '77 Bird, which is a former national record holder. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r=100#indextop http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 09-11-2016 at 03:18 PM. |

At the div 1 race, Todd Hoven made it to the Stock quarter final round, but no further.
It's obviously BBC powered, but I thought this pic was worth posting. This Cat is on the div 1 S/G 1st round winners list. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextopock Last edited by ponyakr; 09-11-2016 at 03:56 PM. |

There is NHRA action this week on the East coast, the West coast, and right here in my home state, less than 100 miles from me.
The Carolina Nationals is on the East coast. I can see 3 Stockers and 1 Super Stocker, on the list, with Pontiac power. The Stockers are driven by Randi Lyn Shipp, Adam Davis, & Michael Brand. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Peter Biondo is driving the "Hatari" Bird, in SS. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop The West coast race is in div 6, in Woodburn, OR. I assume Brad Burton & Ryan Warter will be there, for sure. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop And the div 4 race is at Thunder Road Raceway Park, in Gilliam, LA. J.B. Clegg & Hunter Pierdolla, are usually the only Pontiacs that race in div 4. Last year, Hunter ran at this race, but J.B. didn't. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Good luck to all those racing with Pontiac power this weekend !

Adam Davis drove the only Pontiac to survive the 1st round of Stock, at the Carolina Nationals.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Round 2 is not scheduled til after 6pm tonight. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Hunter Pierdolla drove the only Pontiac to qualify at the div 4 race. Been there, more than a few times, even when there were still lots of Pontiacs on the streets. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r=100#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 09-17-2016 at 09:52 AM. |

At the Carolina Nationals, Adam Davis got knocked out in the 2nd round of Stock, but Peter Biondo survived 3 rounds of Super Stock. That leaves 7 cars for round 4.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r=100#indextop Out on the West Coast, some more Pontiacs showed up to qualify for Sunday's div 6 race. Leo Glasbrenner brought his Stocker & Super Stocker. And Lindy Lindholm brought his Stocker. So, we now have 4 Pontiac powered Stockers & 1 SS entered. Good luck to all. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 09-17-2016 at 10:30 PM. |

Yeah, it may take a real good light to win the semi final. Peter's opponent has cut a .001 & a .000. You can't get much better than that.
But, Peter has won a lot of races, so I won't bet against him. Last edited by ponyakr; 09-18-2016 at 10:07 AM. |

Congrats to Peter for another Pontiac powered national event win !
I also just noticed that Peter ran about 2 tenths under his qualifying time, for the heads-up GT/CA semi-final win. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...er=30#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 09-18-2016 at 06:52 PM. |

Midwest Nationals
All the Pontiac Stockers survived E-1 ! Don Turk won a really close race, with both drivers cutting a good light & running their dial-in.
http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...UMMIT#indextop It's still raining out West. But, they expect sun by noon. http://classracer.com/classforum/sho...6&postcount=37 Last edited by ponyakr; 09-24-2016 at 10:34 AM. |
