I wanted to touch base with everyone to confirm the Oct 10th date for the GM Turbo 6 Group and the Carolina’s Chapter Buick Club gathering at Mooresville Dragway. There are several plans in the works to host some heads up racing for Buick powered cars provided there is enough interest.
Here is one of the thoughts, my plan is to let this run several days for gathering feedback from the Group before landing on anything. I know we will never be able to please everyone but figure these rules are broad enough to cover anyone that wanted to race.
1.“King of the Street”
Only Rules are:
•Car must currently be Street Legal (Which means you have to show proof of an in date Registration, In date license plate & active insurance to operate on a Public Highway)
•Car must be Buick Powered - V6 or V8
•Car can run any street legal tire of choice, Drag Radials are fine, Except NO Cheater Slicks.
This will be Heads Up Style Racing, you may run against a V6, and then again you may be pair up with one of the GS V8 Guys. It should be interesting!!!
2.Out Law Racing or an Index Style Racing
•Run what you Brung no Rules
If there is enough interest from the SY/TY Group we could maybe pull off something for you guys/gals as well. Regardless this is a Test & Tune day and we want you to attend also, as we enjoy seeing your trucks run as much as you do.
Bottom line is, we are having a Gathering not a Track Rental, so we are limited to what we can and can not do and I really want to Thank Jody from the Track for offering us the opportunity to have the Gathering. It will be a Great Day to catch up with Old Friends, Make New Ones and Have Great Buick Fellowship to share our interest. I’m sure there will be good support from the GS Club as Showers & Shiners so even if you have no plans to race, bring your car just to Show and enjoy it.
Bonus; Several of us have touched base with some of the Vendors asking for sponsorship in the form of Donations for prizes to be giving away that day for anyone attending the Club Gathering. Stay Tuned More to Come.
Feedback Welcomed…………..
