Had an interesting night. Let my friend who also owns a '87 GN drive my GN to do a little comparison. A newer Firebird decides he wants to play a little bit. We let the Firebird go first and my buddy laid into the throttle seriously blowing by him as the tires go up in smoke. Little do we know there is a fleet of cops in the parking lot. They pull us over and write him a ticket. 63 in a 35 zone. I know we were going faster than that. I'm hoping he doesn't loose his license!!! He thinks he has a good chance of getting out of it since his dad is a cop which is good friends with the judge not to meantion a very good lawyer. Has in the past anyway.
After that we decided to head to the street races. Wasn't to many cars around. Mostly rice burners and a mid 70's Monte Carlo with a 502/502 Chevy crate engine. The Monte Carlo had drag radials on. My buddy asked him to race. I had regular 235/60/15 BFG Radial T/A's, 91 octane pump gas, SMC dual nozzle alchy kit, and a 17 degree WOT Extender chip. 22 psi boost. DirectScan is showing 344 GPS of air flow. I let my buddy drive my car. He left at a dead idle. The Monte Carlo gets the jump and my GN starts laying a very long patch of rubber. Half way through 2nd gear and my GN starts pulling really hard on the Monte Carlo to the win. Made up about 5 car lengths to win to 2 car lengths. Can't complain for 100% street trim and low timing chip!
Wish I had a set of slicks, race chip, and race gas in the tank!
