Default Re: Best Pontiac Powered Stockers

Hey ya'll, look what I found !

At the '03 Super Nats, Al Vanis won Stock. Most non-Pontiac guys will have no idea why I think this win is significant.

(1) Al Vanis won the US Nats, in a Pontiac powered Ventura, back in the mid '70's.

(2) This win was also in a Pontiac powered car. This time, it was a '77 Lemans. The reason that's significant, is because many of the Pontiac guys/families from the past, have long since switched to other brands.

(3) Check out his RT's. He cut two perfect .000 lights, then a .012 light, in the final.

For all these reasons I just think this was a real cool win !
