    Noble

    I've been to Noble for 6 years in a row as a spectator and believe me the pro tree has been far kinder to the Buicks.I havent raced in years but would much prefer the pro tree if I were racing my 86 T-Type.

    Buick vs. Ford Oklahoma shootout results

    I kept track in the stands and 47-45 is correct.A few crucial redlights killed us.We were behind 46-44 with 3 races to go.Peterson red lighted as did his opponent so no one got a win. Art windowed his block while he was well on the way to a win.Schmidt got our final win. I sure feel sorry for...

    Is 78-82ish carburated turbo stuff worthless?

    You will probably need to post this in the Before Black section as it deals with the early carbed turbo cars.

    Man...Did Artest....

    Years ago I used to be ardent NBA fan but havent watched a game of "basket brawl" in many-many years.From what I see its just a bunch of street thugs playing the game now.I wouldnt go watch them play if it was free!! Long gone are the days of Jerry West,Elgin Baylor,Bill Russell,John...

    John Gallina going for New Record

    Len, Thanks for the info.I thought it must be up around 9000 rpms.I believe it has to be one of the sweetest sounding Buick V-6's I've ever heard.Just wish I had $95,000! My V-8 friends cant believe a 207 CI car can run that quick.Let us know who buys the car.

    John Gallina going for New Record

    What kind of rpms does this car turn?I just watched a video of it at Bowling Green this year and it sounds like 9-10,000 rpms off the line. Did it used to have just 198 cubes?Thats what it says on the BG site.

    Noble results

    How bad did Art Freeman hurt his engine?I noticed he didnt run in the finals. The pro tree has worked great for the Buicks as theres been very few red lights the past 2 years.3 years ago there was 12-15 Buick reds.

    Who Was The Quickest Ever N/A Buick V-6?

    I know this has been discussed on here before.Who had the fastest ever naturally aspirated Buick V-6 drag car?I remember once reading a story on it somewhere.Wasnt it a Skyhawk that ran in the 9's or 10's?Someone refresh my memory.Thanks.

    A preview of what you GN guys will see at the OK Ford/Buick shootout

    Andrew won his race 9.41 to 9.77 but it wasnt enough as his team went down.He was the 3rd fastest Ford. At least Andrew didnt sandbag like some of his Ford team mates.One qualified at 13.06 and then ran a 11.18 like we wouldnt notice. Way to go Buicks 39-35. The pro tree is working...

    Buicks Win!!!!

    It sure was great to see the Buicks put it to the Fords.Way to go guys. Several Fords were sandbagging as usual.The worst was the one that qualified at 13.06 and then ran a 11.18 in the finals. John Schmidt's Opel was low qualifier at 8.08 but blew in the finals.The fastest Ford was an...

    Noble

    I believe the gates open at 8 am and its usually after 9 before the first cars go down the track.They usually stop the time trials between 3-4 pm and pair off the cars which takes an hour or so.Last year things really drug and they got a real late start. This will be my 5th year to watch and...
