1st time to the track with new combo

[N2HIPSI]

I went to Atco tonite. It was a last minute decision so I was'nt totally prepared. I stopped by the house, threw the jack, helmet, and my 26x8.5 slicks in the trunk. I had a full tank of sunoco 94 and a bottle of super 104 octane boost. I got to the track and threw the slicks on. I did'nt make any changes to the car from normal street trim. I run 16.5-17 lbs of boost with no knock. I have a max effort set on 18 degrees timing with 100% injector pulse rate. The first pass was off the brakes--no boost.

60ft---1.91
1/8 mile---7.74 at 92
1/4 mile---11.92 at 115.38

The next pass was better. I left on 3lbs of boost.

60ft---1.71
1/8 mile---7.47 at 93
1/4 mile---11.71 at 115.77

I was then told to slow down or leave. What a great feeling. I guess I am ready to get a roll bar now.
I have waited 2 years for this day. The previous best with the old combo was 12.32 at 109.
I can't wait to put some 116 octane in her with 24 degrees of timing and turn up the boost to 22 or 23lbs.

Whats with the low boost --heard not to use that boost additive crap it does nothing,nextime add xylene and turn it up a few lbs..

Any more boost and they would have booted him off the track.

Thanks for the congrats,guys! By the way, I forgot to recognize Billy Anderson for the motor work and tuning. The man can definitely put together a fast buick. I recommend him highly to anyone who needs work done!!

good luck...it is a fun and expensive ride!

Roll bar for 1,500 lmao....uve got to be kiddin...Crap we have mainers put in rollbars daily that goto the track and are certified they do it for like 500 lol 1,500 bucks for a roll bar what does it need to have pretty padding on it to or something or have music coming out of it...What else does it do for 1,500...Just playin but seriously...Maine is where to go for a cheap roll bar *cheap as in low price not product*
