GBOTM: August '12 Entries Thread

[Bweavy]

Well I've got two G Bodies to enter for this. First up, 1987 Buick Regal T Type. 3.8L all forged internals, ported heads, 95mm Turbo I believe, Stainless steel exhaust, Turbo 400 tranmission with a full manual reverse valve body, transbrake, 8.5 rear end built to take a beating, 8 point certified 9.90's cage, Weld Drag lights 28-12.5-15 slicks. The regal is street legal BUT. With the boost turned all the way up to 35 PSI it runs 8.80's in the 1/4. But never again will it get turned up that high lol I understand now why parachutes are require for 150 mph or faster....

Kevin Hess's Old 87 Limited?

You know I'm not for sure? It may be. Where is he located and I can talk to my dad and see if that's where he got it from. If it was his old car I would love to tell him how beautiful the car is and a hell of a good job he did with building it.

My second entry in this is my 1983 Cutlass drag car.

355 Small block chevy
forged and lightend rotating assembly
11 to 1 compression
RHS 200cc Aluminum heads
Isky Cam
Comp Cam's roller rockers
Victor Jr. intake
Holley 750 Double Pumper
Accel Distributor
Taylor spark plug wires

Turbo 350
Full manual valve body
3,400 stall

4.56 rear gears

30-9-15 slicks
Weld Drag lights.

This cutlass is a beast! Sounds wicked as hell. Fast too! Unknown quarter mile times though as it's been getting the bugs worked out. The car has been striped completely down and weighs 2,700 pounds should be a mid 10's car. Thursday it is going out the the track to test and tune and we will see how she does! 😀

I am pretty dissappointed in the number of entries too. But I also know that this site has more purist than racers too. I personally like the cars with personality better myself.

There just aren't many track-only cars here... Never really has been.
Most are street cars that see occasional track time, if any at all...
Lots more race cars on maliburacing...

Well how about an interior shot then. It's kind of blurry since I just took it with my cell phone and it's inside. But this month seems kinda slack with entries but the ones that have posted pics are very nice rides so I better add a few more too. Maybe I'll even dig up a few time slips if that helps.

Nice interior dude! Yeah I'm really deppressed with the turn out for this month. To bad we don't live close to each other then we could just get our cars together and get a "group" shot and just post that as the win. Lol Blue car pride!
