Best Sleeper....EVER
84 4 door Regal

Not too bad for pump gas. Can't wait to get methanol for my alky kit and turn the boost and timing up.

Videos will follow, probably tomorrow.

Can't wait for good tires and more track time.

I'm sure we'll hear more "V8 option Grand National" stories like on Saturday.

Its almost too sleeperish ( I just made that word up ) i dont think you could get a race or even a glance ....................would make one hell of a getaway vehicle have the driver disguise himself as an old man ...... Very cool ..........I love the interior , i call that the red robe interior... my buddy had that same interior in a caprice years ago ............the red rode phrase came about after an incident while participating in an "MK ultra" type experiment .

Test n Tune

Notice the tires smoking at about half track. I'm gonna have to do something about those 205/75/14 tires. It got a little squirrely on me.

Looks like a goodyear gatorback. A friend got a set for his 03 Stang and they looked just like his stock tires. Except the tread compound is SOFT.
