  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

455 beats Vulcan again and again

    Went up to Lowe's to pick up some odds and ends for a home repair job. Drove my 70 X-terminator over there. Stopped at a light after leaving the parking lot and a Vulcan (Harley wanna-be) pulls up next to me and revs the thing. Light turns green and we are off... to make a long story short, beating this guy once wasn't enough. I had to school him 2 more times before he gave up!!

    Nuthin like a BBB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :TU:

    I represent the last post :3gears: . Yes I owned all SBB GSs for the the last 25+ years and since I bought a 455 4-Speed there is no turning back! Even my little 84 Century (Buick with a Buick engine) 3.8 has the torque to dust the "rice-burner" :laugh: , AL.

    Good job.

    Some people never learn.

    I love dusting rice rockets when I have the stickeys on and enough clear road to run them down (I have to wait for boost). The really bad boy bikes will stay even with me though. When we get to the next light they just look at the car and shake their heads.

    a pair of 55's or a 6 still beats rice

    Mikey,
    That's one bad a$$ turbo car you have. I'll need to talk to you when I get this 84 GN I'm trying to buy! :Brow:
