Overall Norwalk has about 500 Pontiac show cars plus another 500 race cars. The Firebird class is pretty big and I would guess there are normally around 50 Firehawks.

My 98 has the LM1, and I love the sound.

I think that's correct, I do remember seeing that 'way back when', ...
But I also remember having one each in hand many years ago too. They were both new, resonators only, I didn't have the whole cat-back system, ..., & I took pictures of the inside of both, which is why I do remember the internal differences.
I did not end up using either & resold them.

What Nathan C. Said... It's a huge 2day car show/race weekend dedicated to all Pontiacs. Pontiacs from the birth of Pontiac to its death. A sea of Pontiacs!!

I live in Clifton park NY. I'm planning to leaving at 9AM on Friday 4Aug. More then likely I'll be taking the I90 route. As it gets closer I'll start posting convoy to the rally Info.
