Best Pontiac Powered Stockers

[oldskool]

Can't find out a whole lot about this race, since it's not a nat event or Lucas Oil Series race. But there were several Pontiacs entered, & some good close-up pics. I saw Bill Foder, Bob Michael, Julie Biermann, Don Turk, & Rob Holmes, for sure.

Would love to find video of these 2 finals. It was a Stock/SS Pontiac sweep !

Brad Burton won Stock.

Just ran across Julie Biermann's name. Can't remember if I posted her div 3 race win, or not. Don't wanna leave anybody out. She won this race with a heads-up E/SA final !

I know that some don't particularly like the qualifying rounds. But I'm always very interested. I know that some hold back, sandbag, or whatever you wanna call it. Then a few seem to bomb their index by more than 1.2. Then there are some races where going real quick is not supposed to hurt you.

I don't know all the qualifying strategies & tricks. But, I always like to keep up with where the Pontiacs qualify. A quick look at this list showed at least 9 Pontiacs.

Here's the 3rd round of Stock qualifying, at the 2015 US Nats.

I've probably mentioned the All-Pontiac, father/son, Stock final. Brad beat Scott for the win at the 2012 Spring Vegas race.

I'll follow that up with this one, which is about that same race.

Brad was Stock Champ in 2010, then again in 2012.

This article mentions his All-Pontiac final win, in the Northwest Nats.

Here was his 8th nat event win.

He's been winning races now for quite a few years. This final round from a div 7 race last year shows one reason why. He cut a .015 light & ran a 10.810 on a 10.81 dial. Takes a pretty good package to beat that.

Here's a little video I found, which features a restored alum front end 421SD drag car. The guy calls it a Super Stock car. But, as we've seen, these cars were actually running in the Top Stock class.
