  1. :laugh: :rolleyes:

    Gee, how did you guess? :grin: Thanks for the tip, John! Let's race! BTW, what are you driving?
     
  2. Too late...sort of... My 72 Maverick already sold for 10,000 so I picked up a 68 Nova for 10,000. I know, it's a chevy, but it's better than a Ferd...

    '71 Vega Wagon

    Used the old plan - small car, big engine.

    The car has 5 spd/ 5.09 gears, blower, nitrous, balanced and blueprinted 454. Runs high 7's/low 8's.

    The program is kind of simplistic - if a little is good, more is better etc. Just crank up all of the tunable items to the max, icluding compression, cam specs, rich/lean set to max rich for the best times. Not like tuning a real car where 14:1 compression and a blower do not go together!

    I've been building and selling cars too - found a Dodge sixpack intake and blower for $1 in the swap meet!! Stuffed it in a Dart with a $5000 440 - instant 9.25 car that is for sale for $50,000 right now!

    You can tell I'm way too far into this...

    I'll race you if I see you!

  5. I had a feeling that was you! :beer

    John, you're a bit too fast for me...I've seen your times. I haven't done much to the Nova yet. 454's are expensive, as is nitrous, balancing, etc...

    i got a not so bad tuned 454 chevy 55.. stuck to 11.**.. bought a vega wagon for 2500 and pu the 454 oh the 55 in the wagon.. last ET. 9.34 :laugh:

    i don't have paypal account.. ii only have 9 credits :( i'll "die" in a close time...
     
  7. I think we will have a few Buick's very soon!!!!!
     
  8. aawwwww, that means I'll have to sell off my 68 Nova! It was beginning to grow on me too... got it into the high 11's with a 12:1 350 1100cfm 4spd

    Will the program "sell" the Buicks, or will they only come up for sale from new guys signing up and putting them up for sale?
     
  9. Not sure yet.............Steve
     
  10. Brian the game tech guy has informed us that he will be adding buicks in the future... Steve
