Circle track anyone (this made the G bodies famous!!!!)

[Silent viewer]

i hope the cars used for this are not clean salvagable cars, but i know many of them are. i think we all need to have a drink to all of the dead g body cars! RIP

That particular car was sweet mint frame rails and mint body! What a shame to cut her up. I sold the ashtrays for $20 on ebay. I have 2 more Cutlass and @ Monte's I'm cutting up. And we put a sweet Malibu wagon in Demo Derby in September the kid came in third and won $150 bucks. We got $91 from the scrap metal dealer. And the V6 still runs!

Don't ever park your G body close to JWO or you'll end up missing parts...I speak from experience...but he does test them for free under race conditions.... :lol:

I circle tracked for 8 years on the local dirt half mile in nothing but gbodys.
We would see close to 80mph down the straights, the cars in the video seem kinda slow.

slow cars

That is a 3/8 mile track so 80 you will probably not see. That class is the pure stock class so they are pretty slow. The nice thing about it is they are all on an even playing field and it is cheap. We had a lot of fun last summer at that little dirt track.

I'm building up an 81 Monte into a Asphalt Circle Track racer.... The metric chassis is probably the most popular choice for any circle track car nowadays. I remember seeing an enduro race where most of the pack was made up of 2 door malibus, with the rest of the pack being montes, regals, cutlasses, a couple novas and camaros, and about 5 percent leftover running dodge and ford. It's just what works now. The unibody cars don't last after a couple wall hits and dodge and ford were made heavier than the g's, so it's all about what's left over. I do shed a tear when I see a good salvageable G body get turned into a stock car, but what can you do?

In any case the monte I'm working on has rotted floor boards, bad rear frame rails and a broken header panel, plus i stripped the interior out for my malibu. It could have been salvaged for a restoration but at what cost? Nobody around here would buy the monte for the same amount it would cost to find another circle track candidate for me to strip out...
