Myself and a couple of GTO guys from the area are planning on just driving up Sunday morning for the show. Not sure what kind of Drag Racing setup they will have for this event.

Here's a couple of photo albums from previous years events:

Tentative Schedule:

Friday, April 30 - All Pontiacs move in on Friday with test and tune and the Friday
night Pontiac grudge matches

Sat, May1 Pinks Qualifier which Pontiacs will get to run free when they buy a
weekend racer ticket.
This day is also NAPA Day at VMP We will be distributing 50,000 free
tickets to NAPA stores for spectators

We control all aspects of this show on Saturday. We can position
all Pontiac racers, show cars and vendors as we have in the past

Napa day last year they had 6,300 people come through the gate

We can set up the car show field for display on Saturday

Sunday, May 2 This is the Pontiacs only day.

We will have some Pinks all Out racer tickets for the different classes
to win along with the money and have some for other contests

i.e. longest distance travelled, youngest racer, etc….

The car show will be judged and awards on Sunday

The huge crowds will give us the biggest event we have ever had
from a spectator stand point

Car show entries will get to show their cars to the biggest crowd in any
Pontiac show in the country when they participate on Saturday

Damn I was in to go as its right down the road until I saw the size of the crowd... I hate crowded tracks.

[PMD G8]

Which photos were you looking at? I know in '07 they spent a majority of the day drying the track from the rains the night before. They didn't start racing till around 3 or 4. Which is about the time I left.

[PMD G8]

Bump: Official show info and website is now up. For you drag racing guys it looks like they have a G8 Specific class.

[PMD G8]

Bump for more interest?

[SuperSonic]

Ill be there!

[jimmytt6]

I should be there on Sunday..all goes well

[SuperSonic]

It seems friday will be the only day for test n tune so thats the only day worth going.

[Billygoat]

I'm interested in going Sunday where were you planing on leaving from in the Raleigh area?

[nono50]

Billygoat if you like we could metup and travel together. It would look nice with two White Hot G8's.

[BigV8]

It figures. I move my fishing trip to the outerbanks up one week and I miss out on this. Have fun and take some pics to share.

[Kermit]

Saturday is the only day I would be able to do something.:rant: Have to work both Friday and Sunday.

[PMD G8]

Usually meet up with a Pontiac Club at the K-Mart near Triangle Town Center on Capital Blvd. Then travel up U.S. 1 to I-85. However since you guys are coming out of Fayettville it would probably just be easier to shoot straight up I-95.

Billygoat if you like we could metup and travel together. It would look nice with two White Hot G8's.

Sounds good to me. Could be more from Fayetteville that would like to go also.

[PMD G8]

Debating on whether I should race or show. Hmm....decisions, decisions....

Also from what I understand there will be a test and tune on Sunday.

[2QUIK4U]

I will be there on Sunday. I have to work on Sat. I will probably put my car in the show altgough I might be persuaded to race

[PMD G8]

Yeah, think I'm going to race, going to a different show on Saturday. Just installed my BMR trailing arms today so wheelhop shouldn't be a problem. Just wish I could get some drag radials to see how low I could get my time.

[nono50]

Sorry guys not going to make it a 2005 GTO rear ended me lastnight.

[2QUIK4U]

It was nice meeting everybody at the track today. Big thanks to Ralph for letting me borrow his helmet. Hopefully next time more members will show up.
