• Event Description: Join the Pontiac Transportation Museum for an entertaining presentation by Tim Dye on the 50th anniversary of Pontiac’s 1976 "U.S. Bicentennial Global Record Run" famously nicknamed "One Lap Around the World." Officially recognized as an U.S. Bicentennial Event and recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records, this ambitious promotional run served as a ultimate durability test for Pontiac's new 2.5L "Iron Duke" 4-cylinder and 5.0L V8 engines. Featuring veteran race car champions Johnnie Parsons and Paula Murphy driving a custom-painted 1977 Grand Prix and Sunbird, this unique journey overcame fatigue, intrigue, and challenge to etch its place in American automotive history.
