I recently aquired a twin turbo Stage 2 TTA. Although I am not new to the racing scene I am new to the Buick side of it. When I aquired the car the engine had multiple problems so I decided to tear it down and rebuild it. I was a little nervous seeing how this was the first Buick V6 I had ever been into and I was always lead to believe that they were a little "fragile". It even took alot of research to find out what sparkplugs this engine needed as I did not agree with the ones that the previous owner said it needed. The shakedown runs have gone well but I still have not made a full pass to date. The best 60ft has been a 1.28 and the best pass was 9.60@158 with a 1.46 60ft (blowing the tires off out of the gate) and running out of gear at the 1000ft mark. From what I have researched sofar the car appears to be Joe Copsons car which was then sold to David Koeppel. I would like to be able to gather some information about this car seeing how most the info that I have recieved so far appears to be very inaccurate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
