See now you're making me want to get some friends together and make the trip to watch all these beautiful engines catapult their cars

Come bro! We'll have the tent up waiting for ya....

very nice set up

i hope to do something like that someday on my car... haha my car is slow

No more looking...Pulled the trigger on the deal tonight.. Hardtop...White...Tan Cloth ..88 GTA...Worst case scenario I blow the Ls1 to high Heaven...I have a very stout Gn motor lurking in the garage that would Find it's way right in there.

Should be a fun little toy.

Let the modding Begin!!!...H/C/spray...Or H/C/And my buddies Maggie on it...


Oh...Rob,Hunt me down a steering wheel...That is the only part of the entire interior that needs attention.

Might have a few more TTA's looking to tame some wild Goat....

NICE....!

Dude, she is beautiful.....!!!!!

Steering wheel will be no problemo.....

Shawn, that is an awesome ride....

Thanks Rob...You should say that....you managed to talk me into it over the last few days...

^ Already has an LS6 intake, just let Tony Mamo velocity port it (Fast 90/90 is overrated), NW Throttle Body, AFR heads & Bret Bauer Camshaft, and you'll never go back to the Turbo Buick engines....

Should have the steering wheel shortly for ya....

that gray gto runs in the 10's I've seen it

so when is this going down?

the t74 powered v6 is up and running and tunned for 25 psi of boost time to eat some gto's
<smack talk> take a good look guys cause this is all ull be seeing of me

<smack talk/>
lets just hope i dont break it again before the event my first outing is next weekend at island dragway

We are takeing our GTO to Neverlift in the AM for Leo and Bob to do the 10 point cage(we have a 6 point now) so WE can run in the 9s and Not have the track break our Balls.....Frank

So how fast are these "OLD" cars that want to race..


Or is this what you are going to see



Looking forward to this when the date is decided

Hmmm looks like I'm gonna have to paint "cloudy" to keep up with these cute cars. Should I put some gel in my hair too?

This is gonna be a great time. I'll be ready and tuned for sure. What kinda of racing rules will there be? Standard NHRA? I may be running rather fast...

Lol, I havent even ran my ONCE yet!!!

I'm sure it's going to run a lot faster than that though. Frank's got something up his sleeve I bet! Any man who recognizes the 454 as the Chevy engine clearly doesn't fool around. There are engines, and then there are engines....

just dyno tuned..may have broke something...i'm not sure what but i got some weird sounds coming from rear motor/tq converter or something at idle and only at idle. i gotta check it out.

but the good news is the car will run alot better at the track, the tune was off in the midrange so i fattened it up so i should be alot quicker in the 1/8th and 60 foots

Sorry for the delay put it in now posted on NYTHIRDGEN.

Glen, considering the amount of cars that will more than likely show up, we might just rent the track out for the day, as opposed to just going one day and asking them if they can squeeze us in and race each other. We're headed there tonight and we're going to talk to a few of the guys we know that work there. So far the majority is wanting it to happen sometime in October, lemme know how the NYTG feels with a date....

-Rob

rob what time u headed over i might make it out tongiht

if you guys are going to be renting the track, i may be down, gonna have to do some tuning, im getting blown in a couple weeks.

Congratulations on getting BLOWN!!!

My wife has my LS1 Trans Am tonight, and the '86 isn't on the road (if I can get it done in the next few hours, different story). Gonna ask Shawn if I can take a ride with him, as I already spoke to Paul (not TB Paul) @ E-Town. He said he can give us our own lanes, but it has to be on a day where nothing big is taking place though. A lot of our guys won't be ready until October (remember, we're built not bought lol), so we'll have to agree on a day that's good for everyone....

Heads up racing, run what ya brung. Meet up in the pits and start pairing everyone up. Best of two out of three races wins. Trying to get the food/drinks and camera work figured out now, as the racing is the easy part. We need two camera's for both parties, and two guys who know how to film good. Film both lanes in the burn out box up close, then stage, then we only need one camera after that to film the actual run. Working out the particulars tonight, but it should be a very fun and exciting day....

-Rob

... the hell with the freaking race then!

Thats Fine with Us We Like the Cool weather.....Frank

+1 on the cool weather

Update: Spoke to a few guys over at tech tonight, a lot of activity was bumped from the beginning of the season to later on because of the rainy weather a few months back. We're looking at October 25th as the day that this will be going down, as although there's a Corvette Challenge that day, depending on the second session, we could probably get it on in the early afternoon. Heh, turns out that our buddy from tech owns a kick @ss '88 GTA, so you know who he'll be running with that day....


-Rob

wow man that will give me PLENTY of time to get stuff done to this car to make it 'ready'
found out i'm not broke down today. Just loose converter/flexplate bolts thatwas causing the racket at idle

Good deal! Was afraid that it might have been something else. Can't wait to see what it runs now that you corrected the tune...

it feels smoother and jumps up in the midrange alot more. should pickup, i'm thinking 11.4x at 118 in the heat if i launch it 100%

would have went out today if i didnt have to work late!!

Wow Now Thats Fast.... You will need Much more than That If you Guys want to look Good ......and NOT get beat By a GIRL to boot in a Red GTO.....Frank

^ Don't let him scare you Orr89RocZ, that red GTO isn't all that. Underneath Melissa's 20" cowl induction hood is Fred Flinstone pedaling his feet @ about 100-RPM, to the tune of Bed-Rock-City....

-Rob

----------
Hey thats 1/8 mile

i'm doing it n/a. i didnt say what i'd run on the bottle Your heavy GTO's will need some help when i get on that

Fixed.....!

You have to much free time on your hands.....Frank

Shhh, don't want the wife to find out.....

Besides, that photoshop took only 30 seconds to do....

Meh, it's Monday now though, no more free time, gotta make goal....

-Rob

you forgot to add a fat chick waiving her arms to hip hop music and throwing mcdonalds wrappers out the window..

Come on now, I'm not that good....

Lol, it would have to be a cavalier then.

Hey I wonder if those people with the 10 and 11 second GTOs are still making payments?

im sure if not them, there parents are.

MMMMMM Good

^ That is just plain wrong....

Thats just wrong LOL... Wendys is better than McD's too !!

As for payment.. True but its my Daily Driver all year that runs 11's FTW... I would have loved to get an older car(69-70's not the econo box 3rd gens with 197hp stock 305's<-- I'm going to get LOL) But I need it to start everyday and cant afford 2 cars just yet, house payments come before car mods..

Hey mine came with a neck snapping 170hp. 305 TBI. Chirped second gear around turns. Absolute garbage.

But hey I dont think the 1991 GTO made ANY hp!

I'd love to own a house. If I see any wendy's wrappers on the track, i'll know what car they "fell" out of.

and the car does not have much more Now......and You Got to like Still living with Mom and Dad.....with an IROC in the driveway next to the trailer....LOL....Frank

^ Boy is it going to be just fun pairing everyone up in the pits....

Whats going on with these caps? 6th finger not sure what to do?

Actually its a Rally Sport and my trailer could kick your GTO's ***! They weight the same!
