Got a long way to go to catch the Single Turbo Mustangs though, I think they are at 6.56@204 with 1 Single Turbo.

:D

got a long way to go as far as displacement???? I will take on as many V6 Mustangs as you can throw at me!
 
Bill,

You are not trying to compete with the Mustangs so don't worry about it. I am stoked that someone (You) are still going out and racing these things! Too many GNs become car show queens.

God Bless you and bust out a 6 for me!!!
 
Oh yeah Bill I have to ask you a question.......

How heavy was the car on this pass? Just curious, but man O man that MPH is awesome for a Buick Regal body (Kenny went 7.20's @180mph obviously with a better 60'):D
 
Congrats Bill

Glad to see finally a full pass. Should make the winter and your sleep so much better. Can't wait for it to run up to it's full potential.

Steve:)
 
Great job Bill!!!! Did any of my fellow F Body guys show up for the challange? I know they were talking about it when you posted on EFBA.
 
CONGRATS!!!!!

Todd,
I thought I already autographed your oil pan rail?.....nevermind , that was something else I wrote on it!!!!


Thanks for all the compliments guys, we have a long way to go, with a little more boost and a little more clutch, the car should post some real impressive et's and MPH

We will be updating the website shortly and hopefully including videos
 
Congratulations on your well deserved success. I look forward to meeting you in the near future to sit down and chat about all the Buick pitfalls you have overcome. I'm sure we'll have a lot to talk about. Keep up the good work.

John Schmidt
