did i hear crotch rocket? my second favorite thing to race. hope to have a turbo on my busa before the end of summer. should put me in the 8's, i hope.

 

yeah my cousin has one hes into racing he has a 1200hp nova, everyone of his cars has a supercharger just about, he builds hot rods for people. but his crotchrocket is extended like 2-3 inchs or something 100 or 200 shot of NOS he said hes been able to lift the front end doing like 170 with no problem. but i think his bike is in the 8's or low 9's im not sure. but i know its to fast for me.

 

I know a Banshee that run 82 in the 1/8 mi @7.75 and it is damn near topped I'm pretty sure he would run a13 maybe a 12 in 1/4. I also saw a 727 Raptor run only 8.3 at the 1/8 th and 13.87 at the 1/4 @83 mph. They will only let us run the 1/8 at our track but some others they let 4-wheelers run the 1/4. So it wouldn't surprise me if he beat you.

 

my friends blazer ran the 1/4 mile in 16.9 secs or something close to that at 80mph, so 84mph would only run it in low to mid 16's. im not saying shees are slow but come on think. something with 275hp and 380ftlbs torque will beat something that has 48-50hp and what ever torqe.

 

Man, the last thing I thought I would see out here was Turbo Buick talk!!! I agree with the others, 8th perhaps, 1/4, no way. One way ot another don't race him. Some willing to make that comment would also seem stupid enough to loose focus and t-bone you as you blasted by.

BTW,
Turbo Buicks Rock.

Hang out on any Buick boards?

i dont know of any buick board. if you are on some let me know.

 

http://www.turbobuick.com/ is a really good Buick board I go to sometimes. Wish I had one [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Brent: Where do you live in Kentucky?

 

DeuceRooster has it, www.turbobuick.com is the place. You have got to go there, lot of good info. Just be careful, like any board there is also a lot of opinion mixed with fact. www.turbobuicks.com (with an s) is also another good board, they also have some LC2 specific parts. If you have not seen it www.gnttype.org is also a must see. I think they have added a forum but the real claim to fame is pure info.

DeuceRooster, I live in Louisville, how about you?
