Props to Ray and Laz

They came up to Reynolds and layed down a killer number also!
8.40s,not positive on the MPH.
But they got her running good and Roy is one man who can hold down a throttle and keep it under control!!
Congrats guys!!!

Yes, Congratulations on that killer pass! You guys have worked real hard. 86 Brick just posted some good pics of the car in the picture section.

They ran an 8.40 @164mph during TnT on Friday night. The car went a 1.35 60' and was 5.32 @132mph in the 1/8 mile. Keep in mind this was after they had a major intercooler explosion and had to find a radiator shop to fix it. I have pics of it in this thread~ http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/tu...cs-2009-southern-buick-shootout-reynolds.html

I didn't realize that was their intercooler. They must of turned up the boost to have that happen. I wonder which ran more boost, their race car or their tow truck :tongue:

Congrats!

With some more seat time for Roy and some more tweaking from Laz this car will only get faster! :biggrin:

Congrats Roy and Laz! Always great to see you guys!

Thanks for the kind words guys it was good to get to make some runs . I have been fighting the chassis for a while we need to make some changes and hopefully things will come around .

Roy is one awesome driver..one of the best in the Buick world. I watched him pedal the car on several passes, pull it back to the grove and run it out... The guy has never lost it.

Great to see Roy at it again.

Glad to see you guys having some fun again.

 

[laz]

Don it looked like you had all the fun yourself congrats on your record setting passes .

 

[Otto J]

I learned something about intercooolers that bit you in the ass,either use 1 peice end tanks or use a big blow off valve

 

[laz]

Otto the car popped and broke the cooler the funny thing is, my friend told me hey that things not welded inside and out its gonna break . I can tell you what im pretty happy with it ,its light and cools pretty well but i am gonna get it reinforced when time permits right now the chassis needs attention .
