Heading to local 1/8th mile track today for some passes.
Looking for some 7.30's to low 7.40's.

Keep the updates coming not enough stockers getting it done like yours.

Kennedale stunk tonight, blew the tires away on both passes. Everyone I talked to was compalaining about traction. Next time I'll go to Northstar in Denton, no problem with lousy track prep there !.

Thanks !!.
I'm on a mission for 11.30's-40's, before I even consider any internal engine, turbo or intercooler upgrades.

Car still around ?. I'm not trying for an all stock record, just looking to go fast as possible with what I've got for now.

Just did some reading on Ed Brewer's car. It's a hair lighter than mine, TH downpipe, trans brake and anti roll bar. Plenty fast on stock parts.

 

[Mr.Spool]

super fast on stock parts,i have seen some fast stockers back in the day but its real hard to get deep into the 11's and inmo quite an accomplishment,and guys get discouraged as they hit the air wall.

Replaced valve springs 3 weeks back, tested one of the old springs, it was at 64 lbs.

Gonna go as far as possible. Gonna probably do an anti roll bar. Just want to stay as street able as possible without car riding rough or noisy.

turn the boost up.i have seen 30 psi with a stock turbo/stock motor in great air on pump gas alky. when its all in it will drop off but get as much as you can in and the car will go faster.the tune is going to have to be aggressive and the car has to hook and stay together,a good trans goes a long way.

I'm on E85, so my tune is pretty strong right now. Did a 1.61 - 60' in BG, think I can shave close to a tenth off that, but might have to go to little bigger ET Streets ?.
Gonna try and hit Northstar Saturday, they said I can test n tune.

You still have all these Buicks listed ?.

I like tall tires on the g bodies but I think a hot stock combo runs better with a slick.the new radial pros can be shocked pretty good as well.
