Default Re: Lookin for NHRA Stock Class ET/MPH from 1970-71

As shown on that list, for C/SA, those old 421SD Pontiacs were quick, back in the '60's. No tellin how many national records they set, thru those years. I've read that Don Gay won A/S at the '63 US Nationals with a 12.81 @ 112 mph.

This one is said to have set the national record with a 12.27 @ 114.64mph in C/S, in 1963.

There were also several 389 Pontiac wagon combos that set quite a few records.

And, of course, their were lots of GTO's that set records, and won races. Knafel Pontiac & Royal Pontiac are 2 dealers that campaigned Pontiac drag cars.

And, when the Firebirds came along, they too, set records and won races. But, some of these feats came along after your cut off date of '71.
