Cecil County East Coast Buick Regionals this weekend,My 70 GS ran a 11.51 @ 115+MPH. My quickest times with the car so far. The track was great and all who attended were very pleased with the weather and the track,with the exception of a few poor souls who broke,my brother Greg included, who grenaded his rear.Actually it was my nephew Greg who was doin his burn-out when it decided to let go. My wife Mary and I left this morning at about 5:30 and didn;t get a chance to say good-bye to everybody,but we were trying to beat the rain that we eventually got caught in anyway.It's about a 200 mile drive for us back to Long-Island and we made it in about 3 hrs.The ole Buick never missed a beat and did'nt use a drop of oil all weekend. I am very pleased with my cars performance and couldn't be happier,what a great week-end. We are already lookin forward to next years event.For those who have never been,this,is one very good race that shouldn't be missed!! :TU:
Hey Kenny WOW thats a great time did you get new hood on?Thats smoking for street driven car. Last time a saw you , you were leaving kmart lot with a 67 chevelle on your bumper. I bet he stayed there all the way home see ya steve
et Steve, Hey whats up? I haven't seen you all summer. Yeah the hood is on,and it only took me all summer to work out all the "little things" to make everything work. Cecil was the pay-off for me. For now,all I'm doing over the winter is cosmetics,paint the hood,re-chrome the rear bumper,get my drivers side bucket seat redone and finally re-paint the trunk.I have reached my Goal,as far as how fast she runs. I'm sure I will be playing with something else[speed wise] by next spring,I don't want to take away her "street" manners cause you know I like my week-end rush. Hope to see you soon Kenny Harold and Mark,Thanks guys:TU: :TU:
Way to go Kennyman!!!! And what was the timing set at??? Now you have 10 months to trim off another .51!!! Faster!faster! Faster! :TU: :TU: :TU:
Bill, Timing is set at 36*. With my MSD Digital6 ignition I have 2* retard at 4400 RPM. I never touched it after my first run. There still could be more in it [some fine tuning] but after my brother blew his rear,and a few other guys broke [Bruno,John] I figured why push it. Remember I dont have a roll bar and this is my street car.After 4 runs on Fri. I took off the slicks and just enjoyed the rest of the weekend.:TU:
