I am looking forward to Norwalk like every year, it's great to watch and be part of such a great event. I describe it as "Christmas in August for a Pontiac fan".

The plan is to bring my 66 for the second time and run down the track Friday and then park it in the car show side Saturday and Sunday so I can watch all the real racing.

I'll be walking the pits looking to meet all of you,

I haven't heard anything about a PY BBQ this year, anything planned?

Bob,

I made the miserable decision to not weld and fix the heads yet again so we won't be there. I really wanted to come match race a certain dragster but it just doesn't make sense throwing good money after bad. Instead I'll put the money towards our new setup and come out stronger than ever in 2015.

Bob,
Been curious about the BBQ myself
Sure there will be something up later.
Was just busy with the PY show.
I'll be on show side myself as a vendor. No car this year.
Can't miss Norwalk !!!

Planned a couple things to get done-and there not started.Geez. The truck is in shop right now for electrical issues. Just this minute got a call-we took my mother to hospital last month then home, back this am to hospital with oxygen 24/7-The call wasn't good word is lung cancer not official but probable. She told my wife to go but keep phone handy.Sooo

Bs. You've been trying so hard you put it in your sig without even doing it yet. LOL!

About Us

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.
