I don't have a clue. Never heard that name.

That reminds me. I saw the name Ken Shawver, which was listed as pickin up 4 straight class wins at Indy, in '03 thru '06, driving a '78 Firebird. A '78 could have several different engines. Assuming it had a 400 Pontiac. But I don't know that. Never heard that name before.

Once his name disappeared, in '07, Monte Howard is listed as driving a '78 Bird. I have heard that name, in Pontiac circles. He's listed as the SS/KA class winner, in 2010. And it's showing to have a 400 engine. Just wondering if it was the same car ? Anybody know ?

Well, this answers my question. It is the same car. Looks like Monte Howard took over the driving duties, in '07.
