Here's a short clip from a longer video, This one deals with the late '60's. It shows how the SS & the FX cars really parted ways. The FX cars went completely wild, & evolved into Funny cars. The quickest SS cars evolved into Pro Stock. And, the SS class became completely separate from the Top Stock class. Thus, there would be Stock, SS, Pro Stock, & Funny car.

There was lots of fan excitement at local tracks all over the country, because of the wild match races. Pontiacs were hardly even mentioned during this period. Don Gay, Arnie Beswick, and a few others did a lot of match racing. The classes were dominated by 427 Ford & Chevy engines, and the 426 Mopar Hemi. After things calmed down a bit, by the mid '70's, Some Pontiacs would start to win again, in SS, Such as Jack Mullins' wagon, Sonny Ray's '72 GTO, and probably others I don't even know about. .
