Pontiac Quotes

We're tightening up the Pontiac and Buick lineup. - Mark LaNeve

We're still trying to find a happy spot with this new chassis, and even though this Pontiac GTO has been very good lately, we definitely keep gaining on it every week. We're pretty pleased right now, but you have to look for even better and that's what we tried to do during our two days of testing at Indy. We experimented with shocks and springs and stuff like that, trying to find something that will help us. At the same time we wanted some laps on this racetrack because even though it will be different when we come back, there are some characteristics that are going to be the same. - Greg Anderson

We're sorry to see it go. It took 30 years to put that name back on a Pontiac car. GTO did what it needed to do: Give us a credible performance vehicle to attract people into showrooms. Even those who quibbled about the styling never questioned the car's performance. - Jim Hopson

We want to turn around Pontiac. As for Buick, it is unthinkable we would do anything there, given its importance in China, where we sold more Buicks than in the U.S. - Bob Lutz

We took our lead from Pontiac Central and all those great teams they've had. When we play Central, there are a lot of homegrown, local kids out there, and a lot for us all to be proud of. - Robert Rogers

We played really well. We executed well on offense and defense. We stepped it up against (Pontiac). - Cathy Sanders

We got out in the session just a little late. When I was going to start my first quick lap I was black flagged. We just had one lap to qualify and we had a fairly decent run. I had enough of a gap between myself and the car in front to get a clean lap. The tires weren't quite up to pressure, but it's a pretty good result for Pontiac and I appreciate Paul letting me qualify. Sitting in Paul's and Jan's seat isn't the most comfortable thing for me, so we figured it's easier for me to get out mid-race than for me to get in. - Ron Fellows

We competed exceptionally hard the first half and so did Pontiac. At halftime we talked about being the aggressor and being tougher physically. - Jeff Wulbrun

We adjusted the belts, the seat, and stuck our number on the side of the car. I had no idea how the car was going to feel, what the set-up was like, and how the Pontiac was going to be to drive. - Mark Patterson

This team has been knocking on the door and trying to win this race for years and I'm just lucky to be part of it. I just want to thank Mike for putting this thing together. We were up and down. That's the kind of race it was. It was back and forth for hours. And the last Pontiac had problems and we didn't. - Randy Pobst
