Quickest "Real" Pontiac

This might help. In the January 2013 issue of High Performance Pontiac there is a 5 page article on Scott's Firebird. In the article it states that he has run a best of 10.17 at 128 m.p.h with a 60 ft. of 1.292. According to the article, I believe he was at "B" weight. I have met Scott and his son Brad and found both of them to be great guys and very accomplished racers. Brad was N.H.R.A. Stock champ twice.

For comparison, I believe Leo Glasbrenner has been in the 10.30's in C. I don't think his 68 will get any lighter than that, I could be wrong.

In Super Stock I believe Bill Rink's '74 G.T.O. has been in the 10.50's in SS/LA. Again I could be wrong.

Would love to hear if either of these last 2 cars have been quicker.
