Div 3
In Stock, Brad Koivisto was #1. I think I counted 10 Pontiac powered Stockers. That may be the most I've ever seen at a div race. Not sure.
https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r=100#indextop In SS, Don Kennedy was #2. Other Pontiac powered cars were driven by Travis Morgan & Stacy McCarty. Irvin John's car MAY be Pontiac powered. Don't know. Anybody here know ? IIRC, at one time, one of his cars was Pontiac powered, was driven by Todd Frantz, & won class at Indy. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r=100#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 08-07-2021 at 10:41 AM. |

Div 3
I noticed a couple of things from that Stock Q-list.
(1) Here's a name I'm not familiar with. "...G/SA Tony Sutfin, Marshall IL, '73 Firebird..." I assume this car is powered by a D-port 455. Anybody know any details of this car ? Usually, when a new name pops up with a Pontiac Stocker, the car is a veteran, which has been sold to a new owner. Some names that pop into my mind are Troy Vogel, Dan Johnson, & Allen Hollingsworth. I suppose one of these cars could have been sold. But, someone could have built a new car. Not a lot of new Pontiac powered Stockers have been built in recent years. (2) Billy Foder is listed driving a C/SA '70 T/A. "...C/SA Billy Foder, Garden City MI, '70 Trans AM..." He's been driving a '72 455HO powered T/A, without wheel flairs. It is a veteran Stocker, which has won national events. If the class & year model on this Q-list is correct, then I assume that Bill is using the same car, but with different grills & a different engine. The only '70 Bird Stocker I can remember, in the modern era, is the '70 Formy that Scott Burton ran. He ran it with a RAIV engine, in B/SA. So, I'm wondering if Bill is now running RAIV heads/intake, & '70 grills. If so, I assume he has the only active RAIV equipped Stocker. Anybody here know the details of this car in it's current state ?

Looks like only 4 Pontiac Stockers survived E-1. Dave Batta, Tommy Pettigrew, Julie Biermann, & Brad Koivisto.

In SS, Scott Burton made it to E-3, with 6 cars remaining, but left too soon. Not a good weekend for Pontiac powered class cars, in elims.
 https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...er=30#indextop But, we had some good Pontiac powered qualifiers. So, the losses can't be blamed on the Pontiac power.

The bad news is that Scott Burton was eliminated in SS E-4.
But, the good news is that Randi Lyn survived Stock E-4 & will move on to the semi-final. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...UMMIT#indextop |

Now the good news is that Randi Lyn made it to the Stock final.
But, the bad news is that she left too soon & lost. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...UMMIT#indextop But, check out the lights the winner cut during elims. His worst light was a .034. Take that one out & look at the others: .000, .004, .005, .004, .009. WOW !  A string of lights like that will win some races, ya'll ! |

The Lucas Oil Nats starts Fri.
Looks like 3 Pontiacs on the Stock pre-entry list: Brad Koivisto, Dwaine Davis, & Ronald Prince. https://www.nhraeventreg.com/ListEve...BM1&cc=8&rn=16 They're also having a Lucas Oil Series race there, yesterday & today. The 3 names mentioned above are on the Q-list. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...UMMIT#indextop There's also some racing in div 1 this weekend. Last edited by ponyakr; 08-19-2021 at 03:22 PM. |

Stocker Video
While looking for something else, I ran across this 9 min video, which I thought some here might enjoy.
On it, 4 currently active Pontiac powered Stockers make a pass. One of the cars is Bob Michael's one-of-a-kind(I assume) '77 Catalina. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrC84cfGCUM Well, this one ain't from 2021. But it has a few well known Pontiac names in it, including Scott & Brad Burton, John Schloe, Lindy Lindholm, Leo Glasbrenner, & Larry Maxwell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqkJLbxlXSI&t=11s By the way, Brad Burton won that race, and won the Stock championship that year. His 2nd.

Lucas Oil Nats
I thought this was interesting.
In the H/SA class final, Dwaine Davis left too early & ran a slower ET than Brad Koivisto. But, Brad left even earlier than Dwaine did, so his light turned red first. Therefore, Dwaine is the H/SA class winner, with a slower car. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r=100#indextop Last edited by ponyakr; 08-21-2021 at 10:03 AM. |

Ron Prince cut a great light & won his double-breakout 1st round match-up. Dwaine Davis, also got by the 1st round, when his opponent did not show.

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.
