I can't think of another Pontiac Stocker that has won more National events than Ms. Randi Lyn Shipp. Correct me if I'm wrong.

That's a real good point. I'd like to know, too. Don't know how many she's won.

So, what Pontiac powered Stocker has won the most national events ?

Loved those Tons-a-Fun wagons ! At least one of 'em was a record holder.

I suppose they were famous for raising the left front, at launch. They were real "torque twisters". They ran both the round port & D-port 455 engines.

Knafel Pontiac had quite a few quick Pontiacs.

They had a '65 GTO record holder.

And this '66 GTO apparently won lots of trophies.

Bill Knafel bought Anderson Pontiac, & kept the Anderson name for several years. So, there were some pretty quick Pontiacs with Anderson Pontiac wrote on 'em.

Many of those 421SD cars were more like factory stock race cars. They used Pontiac factory engines, but the car may not have come from the factory with those engines. In some years, the 421SD parts were available over the counter, but could not be ordered in a new car. Pontiac also installed some of these engines into '63 Tempest bodies, & gave them to selected Pontiac racers.

Could only post one of my pics.

I think if you checked his win record it would be substantial and with more than one car.....and with a 4 speed....

I was a Pontiac fan in my earlier days and loved them all.

Capital Raceway had a lot of Pontiac racers in the mid 1960's......when I was there racing......early wagons and there were lots of Pontiacs being raced pretty much everywhere I was racing......

My first 2 cars were Pontiacs and I had a '58 street car/tow car that I drag raced a few times.....Ramon Lowe, Jay Hamilton.....west coast Pontiac hitters. John Thropp, Fred Borcherdt and another well worth watching was Jack Mullins.....manual trans wagon and he really pushed the limits with that car.....weight, rpm......
