Got pics of a J Duncan car.

The pics I have of a Billy Foder car are of a Stocker. I think I posted a pic of a car with someone else's name on the door, which I have listed as Bill Foder driving. So, maybe somebody else has pics & info.

I know Mike McKinney won the US Nats in the '68 Bird Stocker he bought from Truman Fields. That same year, Truman won his Stock class, in the Bird the McKinney's had traded him, in that earlier deal. If the Mckinney's had other Pontiac drag cars, I'd like to know about 'em.

Yes, That's all true. But we've already had a couple of posts about his cars.

Here are the links.

We'll look a lot deeper into the GT cars, later.

We looked at quite a few '74 Birds. Right now, I can't think of a single '75 or '76 SS Bird. But, there have been quite a few '77 & '78 SS Birds.

The quickest '77 I've ever heard of is now raced by Mike Morgan. And it uses the low compression 350 engine, with 6X heads. He gives credit to Parsons & Myers for the engine's power. They have built some quick Pontiac engines, for Stock & SS.

I know Mike won his class at Indy one year. And, Bill Rink & Mike got winner/RU in class there. An all Pontiac 350 powered SS class final is really cool to me.

Anyhow, I'll look up some of his best results, & post 'em.

For the cars quick enuff to make the field, Indy is a good measure of a car's performance. So, lets look at what Mike has done there.

In 2015, he ran .920 under, for the #41 position. He was higher on the list than Bill Rink, Peter Biondo, & Scott Burton.

He was also RU in SS/MA. Bill Rink won SS/LA.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2015#indextop

In 2016, he went 1.006 under, for the #47 position.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2016#indextop

He also won the SS/MA class.

In 2017, he went 1.098 under, for #23 position. Had a good shot at the class win, but left .006 too soon in the 1st round.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2017#indextop

In 2018, he went 1.233 under, for #11 position. 10.617 is pretty quick for a 350 Pontiac.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2018#indextop

For class, he had the field covered.

BUT, in the final, against Bill Rink, he played it a little too safe, cut a REALLY bad light, & lost.

In 2019, he slowed a little, but still went 1.126 under, for #22 position.

Left too soon in the class final & had to settle for RU to Bill Rink, again.

https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2019#indextop

Read somewhere that he'd turned some 10.40's. Will see if I can find that info.

OK, in the 3rd round of this race, he ran a 10.414, to beat Bill Rink's 10.555, in a heads-up SS/LA 3rd round match-up.

Don't know what his best ET has been. But 10.40's from a low CR Pontiac 350, in a legal weight '77 Bird, sounds pretty darn good, to me !

These 2 Pontiac 350 powered cars are very competitive.
