Well i recently bought a 87 Turbo T for my daughter who is 12.Its isa father daughter project that she is taking the joys of fixing and making here own.So i finally got all the bugs worked out ,correct chip alky tuned in and set for 20 psi with zero knock.A buddy of mine calls and says were going down to Hwy 100 in milwaukee.Asks if i am intreasted in going,At first i am like na not really intreasted in going,thanks anyways.So i hang up and go on about my day.Ten minutes or so later my Buddy Jason calls ask what's up for later.So i explain nothing really,unless want to go to milwaukee.
So we drive down in my daughters T ,cruise the strip awhile then park at the local spot,sit and relax nothing major.Hour goes by a group of us jump in the cars go for a lap.So were driving around 10 minutes or so.I see these two 4th gen camaro's messng with each other.So i sit back and watch the show for a bit .They both slow down and speed up,then slow down speed up.I get fed up i go to the far right right lane being it is 3 lanes.I just about ready to roll past them and the light ahead turns red.So i stop,both Camaro pull up and both are revving at each other.
My buddy- goes there going at green.
me-I say yep.
my buddy-He ask you going with them.
So I run the rpm's to 1700 and 3psi,stock radial tire vs et streets there both running.So light changes i roll into it about half throttle,till mid intersection then i pound it to the floor.By this time ther already about a car ahead.I'm thinking crap i'm done.Boost gauge smacks 20psi and wham i am right side by side with them.Hit second i just edge the Camaro in the center who is just edging the other Camaro.Hits third we are all neck and neck.I here the guy next to me shift into fourth, I look at th rpm gauge time to shift.Just as I hit the shifter into fourth they both let off.I was about a fender ahead of the middle car and about half car ahead of the other car.
So we pull in to a local spot ,the Camaro's follow.I park get out and walk towards other freinds.Guy asked whats all done,i tell him a few bolt ons etc.My other buddy yell's it just grandma's buick.Guy laughs and says well grandma's buick is pretty fast for a Buick.I laugh and say even fast for a 12 year old girls first car.
Neither guy could believe that this stock looking Buick was laying the smack down after they both out launched me.It was one of those moments i wish i had a camera...
me-Yep we are.
