@ LOS 1-3, Vic Santos was #6 @ -.892, in a '78 Bird, running GT/IA. I was only familiar with his 3rd gen Bird GT car. So, who knows what other Pontiacs Vic has raced ?

Vic went a tick too quick, in the semi.

Greg had to settle for 3rd place at this race, because his semifinal opponent cut a perfect .000 light. And check this out. That guy had cut a .001 light the previous round, then cut a .005 light, to win the final. Now that was an impressive 3-round string of lights !

@ LOS 5-5, Robert Cruzen was #4 @ -.791.

Robert was RU at this race. He was beat by the awesome Dan Fletcher. Check out some of Dan's lights, .005, .010, .012, .017, .020 ! He keeps showin up at all the big races, plus many of the div races, from coast to coast. He either had lots of frequent flyer miles, or flew on private jets. Don't think a guy could make that many races, traveling by land. He'd stay wore out all the time. And he ran Stock & SS. So, I assume that others got the cars to the tracks, & he just flew in, to do the driving. If he traveled by land to all those races, he's almost super-human, IMO. Maybe some here can give us more insight.

@ LOS 4-6, Robert Cruzen was #8 @ -.681. Leo was #11 @ -.625. Must have been some really bad air and/or track conditions that day. Some of the reg SS guys couldn't even run their index.

In 2013, while Robert & Don K. were running strong on the West coast, Vic Santos was running strong on the East coast. And, I just noticed a pic of the car from 2002. It has Santos & Ribeiro on the side, & Dean Ribeiro on the window. I suppose that means that Dean drove the car for a while. I've seen his name on several of the DRC lists. I knew Dave raced Pontiacs. Just never made the connection between Dean & Vic. So, after I get caught up thru 2019, I'll go back & see if I can find some results for the car, when Dean was driving.
