Saw this at nascar.com on the entry list curious to why a pontiac is in the field for this weekends race?
 
Teams can still race Pontiacs, GM just won't support them at all. It's understandable that a part-time team would still run a Pontiac, since they likely can't afford a new car.
 
Got it ok, didnt know if they could still run them. Thanks for the info man
 
I guess Nascar still takes the Pontiac templates to the track? just curious.
 
I can't imagine there would be a huge difference if any at all between the Pontiac template and the Chevrolet template. Plus, it ain't like he's on anybody's short list of potential winners. :p

And yes, I know he still has to be legal.
 
The only differences are the nose & tail, so I can't imagine many big differences. The biggest is that the Pontiac would be a 2003 model car, when everyone else is running 2004 models.
 
Some BGN teams ran the '03 GP body last year when others ran the "04 GP body.
 
Didn't you guys notice that I put my Bill's Beef and Ale sponsored Yugo as entry also... :p
