Guys I never post on this site, for now I just lurk in the for sale section. I am a long time friend of BEATAV8 and figured what a better day to be teased by some very nice cars! I would have loved to see Turbocliff's car run but didnt get the chance(have seen vids...wow). But I will say the cars I did see run today are very impressive and how heck did I get a sunburn.....lol

 

[BEATAV8]

GOOD TIMES!

I was really impressed watching Tony run. Clean and smooth.

I made 4 passes with my blue beater in the 12.60-12.70 range and 108-112mph. Car is stock except for the TA49, 009's, SMC, extender chip and 85mm MAF and a 340 pump.

and how heck did I get a sunburn.....lol

I went to NMRA/NMCA in Joliet today and was wondering the same thing. Cloudy all day and I come home and my face is bright red.

Tom J are you going to bring that redneck built, turbo installed wrong ride you just bought tomorrow? What is the people's champ award? I am very interested?? The Atomic Gn was awesome today the last past was 9.57@139.99. It ran 3 9.60 passes in a row. I hope it runs this consistant tomorrow. I would like to win some money for a change. Rick are you still coming over? Bring your laptop if you do I need to record a pass to see what I can change to make it faster. Should be a awesome day for racing I added timing and took fuel away and still had no knock I wish I could raise the boost past 26lbs but the wastegate won't let it happen. See you tomorrow. TT Bone the new peoples choice award winner until we meet again.

Keith, anytime man, you know that! Mi casa es su casa!!!!!!! Glad you were able to make it with that beautiful GN! It's good inspiration to a future ground up on my car. Might be when I'm 50 but someday it's going to be as nice as yours ground up! Thanks for hangin at the house, it's always good to have GN guys to drink beer with!

I had an electrical gremlin right off the trailer, and just had no motivation to troubleshoot after about 5 minutes as I couldnt stay all day anyways. Had to jet early to get to a wedding, so I decided to watch the other buicks and shoot the **** with people. Had a good time anyways, got to put some more names with faces. The Atomic GN got to live another day....

MR Cliff how about a 9.53@141.1 best today 9.52@140.9. The car was faster today than yesterday and I changed nothing. 9.53-9.59 never slower than 139 plus all day. I made it through the 4th round of pro and was put on the trailer being late on the light with a .080 to the competion's .043. It was a great time anyway meeting everyone and Byron is a nice track. Eddie how about that buddy I wish I had a stage 2 motor but after seeing Greg Edwards running 8.50@ 167 with a lsx twin turbo 3,000 mile 20 mpg 2002 Camaro I have some ideas for next year Mr. Cliff get your gremlin out of the car and I will see you Osceola or somewhere else sooner. The best thing about my car is 80 plus passes and I have changed the oil 3times and the plugs twice. I love my Atomic GN and remember this IT DON"T HURT UNTIL THE BONE SHOWS!
