Gainsco Pontiac

Pontiac kicked off the 2008 Rolex Grand Am Season at Daytona in January. Their final results were less than stellar and Pontiac wanted to come back with a vengeance.


While a Pontiac didn't finish first in DP or GT, their domination of the leader board will boost their position in the hunt for the manufacturer's championship. Kelly Collins and Paul Edwards still hold a healthy lead over Nick Ham and Sylvain Tremblay piloting the SpeedSource Mazda RX-7 in the driver's championship. The Pontiac Racing teams are gearing up for the Porsche 250 presented by Bradley Arant at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama. It airs on SPEED July 20th at 3:00 PM ET.
