  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

    This is not a buick kill but was fun to watch. I pull up behind a brand new
    Z-06 Corvette who is first at the light last Saturday afternoon in my 3/4 ton work van. The road up ahead narrows from 4 to 2 lanes and we are in the correct lanes. Some early twenty something girl in a yellow Mustang GT (top down) convert decides she is going to beat everyone to the lane end except she has no idea what a Z-06 is. Wasn't even a contest. That vet bogied. How come I am never in the T-Type when I need it.

    I have not had a serious contender in almost two years, even at the track. Everyone I line up against is way faster or a way slower than me. A friend of mine who has a 66 Chevelle that was equal to my T-type turned it into a low 10-sec street car so I'm always chasing his taillights, he's no fun anymore.
    There are not very many fast cars being driven on the street anymore.

    Not a Buick story, but I have a sbc V-8 4-door GMC S-10 Blazer that I burned a few ricers with. I had just built the truck (.040 flat tops, vortec heads, 10.4:1 compression, mild cam, 700R4, and a 3.42 posi rear). The exhaust was quiet, so no one really knew what was under the hood. I was cruising through a snotty, ritzy part of town where all the punks have tuners with the 5 inch exhaust tips. Two of them were in the lanes next to me, revving at eachother, and waiting for the light to change. I ratcheted down into first gear, and kept my eyes on the lights. I walked away from both of them like they were running on 4 flat tires. At the next light, they got on either side of me, and started revving up again. I let the light turn green and they took off, and I ease away from the intersection like I was driving Mrs. Daisy. It was like coupon day, cuz I got 2 for the price of 1!!
