The 70-72 Trans Am may have been the best-looking Pontiac ever made.
Agreed !
I had a white '70 back in the day. 400 RamAir III - turbo 400. Freaking awesome car. Had so much fun with it! Guy I sold it to ran it at high speed without header gaskets and it caught fire and burned to a crisp at the side of the road. Broke my heart to see the pics.
Barcrrt 73?
@@leonvoltaire 73' lost the stripes and blue or white colors in favor of the screaming chicken. I really like the white with blue stripes.
70 to 73
A fantastic car! My dad had a 1973, Pontiac Firebird, Formula 400, my dream car!
Hey, thanks so much for the video, brought back so many memories, of a time , perhaps the best times of my life. I have, own a 1967 Shelby GT500 dual 4 427 Tunnel Port cid side oiler, still have the car, although in need of restro and several motors and Dan Williams trans. We raced IMSA, SCCA, 12 hrs Sebring, 24 of Daytona and one or two trans am races on it. I raced in IMSA and SCCA mostly. We traveled mostly the SE USA and did it all with my own little shop, inside a gas station, sometimes worked till 2am, then on the road to a race, very very budget racing. But, I gotta tell you, it was some of the best times ever, so much of a thrill with all those ponies in my hands.
When I think back, it may have never really mattered if we won, it was the journey.
Thanks again, love the in car video, brings it all back. 👍
I never realized how quick you can come up on opposition cars. That was a great video! Love the ride along! Thanks!
Man and Machine, if one gives out neither win! Love the T/A and the driving.
Awesome drive Roger! That car is bad ass!
Love rhe care, love the sound, could almost imagine the smell of oil, fuel, & stressed rubber!!!
THAT WAS AMAZING!, GREAT PERSPECTIVE!!!
You do a 73 Super Duty owner proud! Nice driving my friend.
Thank you for letting me ride woth you; that was kickass, I loved it..
Just love it, got one in the back yard, watching this is Very motivating!
Great video!! Watching that daredevil dive bombing in and out of frame like a comet was entertaining!! You guys were pushing it.
Damn good race!!! The driver in the cobra was giving it one hell of an effort!!!! Some great drivers!!!!!
The most impressive thing (and I have no idea if the Cobra was sandbagging or not) is that the Pontiac hangs with a car that's at least a half ton (or more) lighter. That big block Pontiac is music to my ears.
Nice video. Nice driving...
I put 3.08 gears on my 73 SD-455 with M22 a few years back and took it on highway 5 here in ca barely punched the pedal got to 120 mph with no one around me and let me tell you, that felt great.
Omg! I think I'm in love. Great diviving man !
Damn that is Beautiful..Lovely Trans am!
good driving Roger..!! Your TA has has plenty of power and handling. I like this track. I used to drive a 1970 TA at Laguna Seca many years ago.
Roger B. has the wickedest T/A. All business. Total race.
always keep a little in reserve : ) great video!
Sail!
Man this TransAm is a boss and the driver is clearly a hard racing badass too!
Love that purrr !!!
Love the bull nose front end of the firebird
wait till the end of the song [@ 3.35 MIN!! ] then the race starts and the music goes off!!
Thank You.... the music from the beginning is terrible... but the sound of the V8 is really MUSIC.
What engine is in this? It sounds sick
THAT WAS AWESOME
❤ those older ponchos. I had me a Formula 4 and a few other formulas
In 1977 I bought an off the showroom floor all power jet blk over blk Trans Am, 4 yrs after paying it off I traded it in for a new used 1974 white over blk Trans Am, kept it a couple yrs then traded it for a 1969 xlch ironhead harley davidson kickstrt sportster, and after 2 wipeouts I sold it for a 1972 pontiac espirit. Pontiac Diehard💪
My favorite Trans Am of all time!
Music to my ears. Nice driving. I figured that the Cobra wouldn't make it after seeing the first lap.
Awesome vid - Congrats Roger - Great Racing :)
Bandit is it a Pontiac engine?? Do you know how many torque it has this great beast?? :)
+Jhon Lénnon Velasquez Yes Pontiac power - 496 ci. by Butler performance - I'll check for the Torque #'s :)
+Jhon Lénnon Velasquez 860 NM - 634.3 ft lbs @ 4000 rpm :)
Freakin badass love it my 73 TA is bone stock
Hope you keep it that way and hope it has an SD-455
AWESOME!!!!!! Like the F-bodies at the finish line.....Classic, very Classic!!!! That dam Firebird is FAST. Had the Corba all bent out of shape. Is the a LS build-up? The gear box sounds really nice too. Long live American Horse Power!!! Thanks for sharing.
Anderson Cubs 96 no pure PONTIAC
Chevy engineers in 53/54 had advance looks at the upcoming Pontiac OHV V8's and copied many of the best design features into their new small block V8,, the Pontiac V8 was slightly larger physically and in it's best iterations you had SBC efficiency with BBC displacement,, BBC's always had head to deck sealing issues and odd intake ports which the Poncho's had fixed... The NASCAR Pontiac blocks had dry sump oiling and won championships for many years. Basically although the later Trans Ams gave Pontiac an image of a car covered in stickers they really had the good "go fast" heritage and are somewhere between the original SBC's and the newer LS series in engineering goodness...
@@briantracy1324 That's why BBC walked all over everything, deck sealing problems?
Two early 2nd generation GM F-body cars crossing the line at speed is a thing of beauty
Sweet engine !
the cobra has a hp to weight ratio advantage that's where the driver comes in. if these races were about the fastest car you wouldn't even bother racing just look at the build sheet and declare a winner. thats why they call it racing because a good driver can take a car that maybe at a disadvantage and win the race not because the other driver was bad . just on that day he was able to win the race
Well said!!
Damn, that Cobra was fcking fast in a straight line :)
give it some grippy tires and it would be a winner
I think the Cobra needed a little more tire but the wet weather didn't help him either.
T/a pushed him past his limit I think!
There is nothing, nor will there ever be anything like the sound of a big American V-8. I love the Trans Am. A great car with a great history both on and off the track. However, there is no car like the 427 Cobra. Never has been, never will be.
I know that I'm late as shit, but THAT was some fine ass driving...any time that you can out drive a guy in a Cobra...DAMN RIGHT! They can talk all the shit they want about the Cobra driver, but it seems to me that he was holding his own for a minute...until he gets out classd! Good job brother...run 'em til the wheels fall off!
Nice you citrouille thé musicale at the good time so we can hear thé Nice v8 song. ..good job from france bonjour
Best ASMR
Good race...but Roger better be glad the Cobra 'sprung a leak'...I really don't think he could have taken him otherwise...that Cobra was TIGHT, and from the first-half performance, he seemed to have a much crisper shift-and-accelerate response (of course, I'm not sure of the weight difference...but all tubular, that TA can't be giving away that much weight).
Yeah, right. Based on the fact that the Cobra started in the #1 pole position and then Roger reeled him in and passed him (more than once) as well as leading most of the race between the two, tells me that even had the Cobra stayed in it, Roger would have still beat him.
Great vid!, would've liked to witness, rpm/ MPH, But outstanding..... KUDOS.....
@ Big Jiff BBQ Am glad to see my favorite car place first place.that is a huge win for Pontiac. I would like to know if MR. ROGER Bollinger is still racing in the Pontiac Trans am? And do you have any more videos of Mr. ROGER Bollinger racing. I would love to see them.
Would really love to see this Trans Am on the dyno and a walk are...please
Would be good to see a shot of the exterior of the car at the start
badddd assss PONTIAC HELL YES LOVE IT
what transmission are you running?
❤ Jawoll !! Schlossrued Power!!❤
This 'Bird = BY FAR = is my Favorite on You-Tube (til mine is done{?}). Sweetest Poncho to kick the Euro Butt all over the place - Keep driving Roge !! Keep winning... ( But ALL Y'ALL keep the Species Alive - even GM Can't Kill the Steel ) Firebird Fanatics unite and keep them alive.
i was wandering how this twinkie is so fast and instantly got the answer))
the guy inthe cobra doesnt know how to drive LOL
That cobra had a lot of kick to it on the straightaways, but the Trans Am had Superior handling.... Which they always did
Did you see how Roger pour on the gas after the cobra sprung a leak (LOL). He was on a mission. Would like to see his lap times. I suspect a big change after the Cobra was out of it.
straight cut gears?
OMG
👍
I'll die a PONTIAC man
My 1st Pontiac was a new 2009 G8GT - nice car. Then Pontiac goes out of business. Ouch! In the 70s, I helped my buddies fix up a 56 Pontiac Chieftain. Cool looks, but what a tank, the rebuilt 317? was modded for some go. I also drove my friends 71 Pontiac Trans Am 455 HO with 4-speed. That was bad ass - awesome looks and performance.
me too!!!
496ci.....ok. What Big Block have you stroked and bored over? That dam thing is a BEAST!!!!!
It's a Pontiac big block built by butler here n the us if I recall correctly. About 650 hp.
700hp and 860nm ;)
go to allpontiac.com ,, they have an awesome block there ,, aluminum , strengthened lifter gallery , forged cranks , heads that flow better than a street hemi... build your own...
No such thing as a BBP.
They were all the same size on the outside.
Tom Hutchison No, Pontiac never had a big block. Those outside of the Pontiac realm, seldom realise this.
Nice fucking beatiful firebird :) Foda muito loko essa porra :)
Last time I did driving like that with a shaker hood I had 3 cops chasing me. :-)
well, trying to anyway
Lol
Second F body is the most beautiful in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well no shit the Cobra is gonna be faster. Its smaller and lighter.
Props to that beautiful T/A though
MIGHTY PONTIAC
Hockenheim?
What's in the yellow A/C Cobra? LOL
I think you need to work on the corners..
says the guy behind the computer screen
Cobra is a good car but don't no the word TURN haha
Is it hockenheim ring?
Rbr
Have a look at ruclips.net/video/1zQxA2nJ8yE/видео.html. You can see the race from Cobra perspektive.
Whats with the music? The engine us the music i want to hear
When the faster car in front of you is making you slower....
in one word better drive a trans am than push a ford ohoh i hope i didn't get any friends mad lol
Pierre Howan right on
i had a same one but had to sell it need some green papers lol
The AC cobra driver sucks,dangerous driving,the Firebird driver drives fast and SAFE.
set up a bit higher and get on the gas sooner..
Roger and out
Whomever is typing in the comments really needs to pay more attention to the spelling - "fearce" and "where" should be "fierce" and "we're". "Wach out". Geez. And there's more but I'm bored with correcting the mistakes...on the captioning, that is.
455?
+mfuji02 496 ci. Butler Pontiac power :)
+1Bandit455 Bad fucking ass should put a firebird on the hood -_-
7 feet wide ....takes a corner better than the cobra...cobra was breaking loose around them but had the straight aways
Is it wrong that i was touching myself through the whole video .
Turn off the music so I can hear the cars!!! If I want music I'll turn on the radio.
stop this music,we can t hear motor sound!!!!!!
I bet the cobra is 2 times harder to drive...change cars and this bolliger guy gets spanked really bad...and for all the other cars on track..he just has 200 or 300 plus horsepower...no real competition....still no heel/toe...so no real classic race driver for me....
not a good choice of music
as much as i love you TA.... fuk i love your TA.... you cant beat the cobra :( driver error.. that thing spanked you till he let off :(
Music was gay and all we saw the whole race is the hood😒 some outside shots would've been nice
Offcourse u would say gay...u own a mustang by anny chance ?
Cobra was faster car with worse driver.
He had the weight advantage (Cobra) but the more he tried to get a head of him, the more he fucked up in the corners, thus losing the advantage.
It's quite clear he pushed the engine... and everything else too far trying to stay ahead.
He might have been faster had he been disciplined ..
turn off the freakin music WTF.
Just WAIT til the warm up lap is finished then the music stops , geezz mr impatiance...
@@JEFFSTINGRAY well impatient or maybe i come to watch sick cars and listen to sick engines, not your genre of music that is generally (maybe not yours) much louder than the main content. If i wanted a music video, I wouldn't be on your channel. If I wanted to know what genre of music you listen to, I'd ask. I can't think of one person I know that likes to open a video to hear some crap music way too loud. Granted I probably only know hmmmmm 10,000 people, but I'm just saying. I will make sure I don't comment, or watch videos on your channel in future. I'd hate to be labeld a troll... lol have a great day and Peace to All.
Loose the music
Loose your short sight , the music stops when the race starts...👍
This guy can't drive a race car
Cobra sucks :) kkkkkkkkkkkk
get rid of that stupid music!!!
Get rid of the stupid over played crappy music.
This Butler motor powered race car could pull and overdrive 5th gear without breaking a sweat.. Need a bigger track!
Music ruined it.
