Might have to change the thread title ;-)

Hey Mark, you know a LOT more than me, about everything connected with drag racing. And, you seem to have a lot of clout here.

And, you seem to be needling me about these little 4 cyl engines, or whatever they are. When I began these threads, I had in mind mainly Pontiac V8's, from the '50's on up thru the 1981 301's.

I, personally would like to keep them basically that way. Maybe a good idea would be to start a thread on best 4 cyl drag engines/cars of all time, or something like that. I'd guess there are quite a few here who'd be interested in such a thread.

Back in the old days, we met a guy from our division named Dave Botkin. He had a very competitive Pinto, named Tumbleweed. I was not into 4-cyl cars, but this seemed like a very nice & friendly guy.

But, if you insist, 4-cyl info is welcome here. Or you can change the name of my threads to say "Pontiac V8 powered". It's up to you. Hey, I'm really a nice guy. I'm not here to offend any person in any way. Would like to get along with everybody here, if at all possible.

AND, I'd like to gather & post all the good Pontiac V8 powered class racing info I can. I don't know nearly all of the big Pontiac racers from the past. But some here do. I appreciate everything anyone can do to help gather this info.

Nope, not at all. The cars I mentioned were owned by some great, winning racers, using true Pontiac power. These cars would be eligible to race at most of the big Pontiac meets, too. I just want to make sure they're not neglected.
Not even going to jump on you for dissing well known Pontiac racers like Phil Szupka by saying you never heard of them. ;-)
All I can say about that is...Miss a day, you miss a lot here.
Miss 40 years,..well

"...Not even going to jump on you for dissing well known Pontiac racers like Phil Szupka by saying you never heard of them..."

How on earth can you say I'm disrespecting someone, just because I never heard of him ?

I even ask for info about him.

"...Sorry, but I've never heard of him. But sounds like a good guy to include. So, any of you guys who have info on his cars, please post it..."

Well, it's very obvious that you & me have VERY different ideas about stuff. So, I call a truce. If you don't like something I post, you can just not read my stuff. I'll definitely try not to say anything bad about you, here.

That's all I'll say about it. I'll probably just not respond to your posts. That way maybe we can coexist here. Or, if that's is not good enuff for you, just kick me off the site for wanting to post Pontiac V8 info.
