Best Pontiac Powered Stockers

OK, we'll now look at the 2012 season. And, since DRC has div race results from 2012-up, we'll also look at some of those.

Remember, we are now looking mostly at the '70-'73 Firebirds, but also mentioning other good Pontiac Stocker info we find during the search for those year models.

As usual, the Winter Nats was the 1st big race of the year, in 2012. At That race, Leo was #2 @ - 1.017. Brad was #5 @ -.943. Scott was #9 @ -.917. Larry was #12 @ -.909. John was #18 @ -.880. Lindy was #45 @ -.725.

At the 1st Vegas Nat of the year, Pontiacs were #1, #2, & #4 Qualifiers. Since there will be so many races to cover, with the inclusion of the div races, I no longer try to list the times of each Pontiac. But I'll try to list the highest Pontiac qualifiers. Anyone interested in the lower qualified Pontiacs can simply click on the link & look down the list. At this race, Leo was .973 under, & Michael & Scott were close behind.

Well, that gets us thru July. Since the season is aprox 10 months long, I assume that's more than half way. So, I'll stop this & do the rest of the season in the next post.

Hey, the Pontiacs had a great 1st half, in 2012 !
