Maybe the guy with the green Cuda could take it to "Nick's Garage" and let him dyno it. Might be able to find out why the "Buick Race Car" beat him...
Excuses from all the guys in Second place... (and announcers that cannot accept what they see with their own eyes) "I mis-shifted" "The car was not fully broken in" "It's a show car, not a race car" "New car, still getting used to it" "My A/C was on" "I had a bad launch" "But if I'd ran race gas" "Spare was in the trunk" "I need to change my oil" "Hit something wet on the track" "My lane is bad" "It's my mom's car" "The tree is not cal'd" "You have a Buick" WYRRHAB?
Wow, Jim Wangers was pissed that Buick made the GN and GNX. He said Buick was known for the older crowdand Buicks shouldn't be faster than the TransAm and Vette. I'm sorry but for a guy who probably has made a good deal of money I think he should of invested in a better toupee
I noticed that as well. Mr. Wangers had ridiculously terrible hindsight, apparently. I'm assuming he's no longer with us but if so, he'd likely realize how bad his hindsight was by attending some auctions in recent years.
I think Jim Wangers is still alive. If so, he'll be 97 this year. It looks as though he was diagnosed with Dementia, possibly Alzheimer's disease in 2014... https://www.motortrend.com/news/jim-wangers-retiring-public-eye-age-91/
I'm not sure if you know this, but the guy with the green Cuda is the one and only Nick! The Diabo's cleaned his clock. They should do a reverse race, the Diabo's build a Hemi and Nick use that 455 Buick that he "built". I think the results would be even worse for Nick's Garage.
