Do I have enough to beat him ?

I've seen cars with very mild combos and little if any suspension work get into the 1.5's in 60ft. Mine won't count cause I have a hr parts bar and am about to install double adjustable uppers.... And I have the good bushings and boxed stock arms....

I'll be limited to drag radials at best either BFG or Nittos.
This car will see tracks once every year or so I figure. So major suspension mods and real race tires ain't likely to happen .
I just want it to run about like my TA. Example 11.95@118 on a 1.87 60 foot on white letter bfg TAs pulling near 30 mph from the 1/8 to 1/4.

Here is a link to a thread started on the pressure transducer which can be used to control or display things based on boost pressure 0 to 36psi. gauge.

I can't 60 ft. either with a lot of good parts and Hoosier QTP's on the proper 8" rims.

I always blame track prep.

use the ta.... I don't see the Buick doin very goood with you just jumping in the car.. You need some practicing an tuning. Stock suspension cars work very well into the mid 11s def an easy mid 11 car but i agree with it would be a case of the woulda coulda shoulda's

Yeah I could but that old sucker is needing some work 12 years of beating on that engine plus running road course are taking its toll.
Needs a down year. Hoping to get some seat time this fall in the GN for practice.
