Default Pomona Finals

These Pomona races don't have lots of Pontiacs, like they use to.

Only 3 Stockers & 2 Super Stockers.

But, at least I'm glad to see that Art Peterson & Keri Angeles are still racing.

I noticed that Keri is running in GT. According to the pre-entry list, her '69 Bird is now 428 powered. IF that info is correct, I assume it has the Edelbrock alum heads. I suppose they finally decided that the RA4 heads are just too rare & valuable to race.

Thanks for that info !

Don't recall ever being aware that such an award existed.

After 2 rounds of Stock/SS elims, Randi Lyn has the only Pontiac powered car still alive. She cut a .004 light in E-2, for the win.

Randi Lyn has survived 2 more rounds.

In round 3, she cut a .003 light.

Her E-4 light was not near as good, but plenty good enuff for the win. This was the quarter final round. So, she moves on to the semi-final.

The bad news is that Randi Lyn broke out.

But, the good news is that she was running a slower class car, which broke out 1st.

So, she's in the final.

Cut a bad light & got beat in the final.

Default Cajun Classic NO

Time for the Cajun Classic national open race, @ No Problem Raceway, in Belle Rose, LA.

https://racenpr.com/2021/nhra-cc/

Don't know if there will be any Pontiacs there, or not.

The track is in my home state, but several hours from me. If I knew there would be a lot of Pontiacs there, I'd consider goin down for a few hours on Sat, to see the Pontiacs & take some pics. But, I know that won't happen. Just too long a trip for most Pontiac racers, especially since it's not a nat event. Not sure where the closest race is, that usually has lots of Pontiacs. But, I know it ain't close, probably several states from me. So, I'll just read about 'em & look at the pics.

Default Any 1st Gen Stockers For Sale ?

Don Kennedy is trying to help a friend find a 1st gen Stocker.

Found out the Chris Stephenson Bird is for sale. But the asking price is $45k.

In case the guy can't swing that much, do any of you guys know of one for sale ?

Not sure, but I assume he MIGHT consider a nice bracket Bird, which hasn't been cut up & modified too much to easily convert to Stocker.

He's probably not interested in starting from scratch, with a street Bird.

Default Feel Good Story !

I like 'em !

Just learned that Leo Glasbrenner, with police help, found the Lindy Lindholm '74 Formula Stocker.

The thieves had messed up some stuff. So Leo fixed everything, & freshened everything up, got it race ready & surprised Lindy with it !

And, I'll have to apologize. Lindy raced it at Vegas, & somehow I just didn't see it, I suppose.

It ran .736 under @ Vegas.

Question Anybody have one ?

Looking for someone who has either a 1972 or 1973, or both NHRA "Factor Finder" booklets.

Don't need to buy. Just need for someone to look up some Pontiac hp factors for '72 & '73.
