Looks like the power of a big turbo is not wasted on the loss of traction. Amazing chassis setup.
 
love everything about that car, from the mangy dog look of the whole thing, down to the broken quarter extension and wobbly door glass! we as owners can relate to this car!

southern engineering done right!
 
Pardon my stupid question..I'm only a desktop racer. It looks like there is no movement of the engine - solid mounts?
 
I love the sound of the turbo spinning down after warming up the tires. 8.90/150 MPH...no wonder the window glass was trying to suck itself out of the roof rail seals....

This is so true. No matter how tight a G-body's windows are adjusted in, they are going to pop out at some point over 140 mph. In pictures of our 2+2 at speed, you can estimate how fast we are going based on how far the windows are bowed out... and our windows have about 1.5" of preload.

This malibu is the definition of scary fast.
 
In one of the last runs the car wanders way right in the lane. Is that the G-Body shuffle?
