If it's Buick or Sy/Ty powered, yes. Otherwise, you have to go to Mooresville!!

This should turn out to be a nice event. I'm kind of saying we should open it up to some other fast street cars. God knows some like to talk a lot of smack and a chance to beat up on some at the track would be cool.

Just .02.

Count me in.

Last time all the F body guys got together at Darlington the best pass was a 10.98 and that was in a LT1 stroker that was spraying. Should be easy kills for a lot of the turbo croud. Just a few weeks ago a guy showed up at Mooresville in a red Z06 that was all decked out and claiming 700 HP with on hood stickers. Best he did was 8.35 at 87 MPH! He claimed he was spraying too. As for how everyone would get along is another story. The Buick crowd always seem to have a good time and large egos are a rarity, so maybe keeping with tradition would be a good thing.

The track will be open for test-n-tune also, so other cars can "show up" if they want. There is no problem there. But the hours of the event are going to be 10am-5pm with runs being made between 10:30am-5pm. I don't think there would be time for a grudge event between different make/model cars.

Now, if we finish our event before 5pm we can definitely handle a little friendly competition to use up the remaining time!!

We are also currently attempting to add a Car Show to the event. It will include all Buick powered vehicles as well as the Sy/Ty's.

So clean 'em up, shine 'em up, and get ready for a great time!!

The flyer is almost finished and we will be posting a link to a webpage for all to view soon!!

A few things to note in the mean time:

The Gamblers Race: Will be bracket style, for all Buick powered vehicles(GN/GS, TTA, transplant cars, etc.) & Syclone/Typhoons!!

The Quick-8 Race: Will be Heads-Up on a Pro-tree. A stock TR or TTA body is required. We are the first and only Buick gathering/race to run the TTA in a heads-up class!!

If you do not want to participate in a race class, you will be able to test-n-tune throughout the whole day!!

The Car Show: Sponsored by The Carolinas Chapter of the GSCA. 1st-3rd place trophies to be awarded for each class. There will be multiple classes to include all Buick powered vehicles & Syclone/Typhoons!!

Once the flyer is available for everyone to see all the rules, classes, etc., we will be able to answer all your questions and concerns.
