  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

    Or maybe we don't.
    Here's your chance to cast your vote if you care to read any more about the Hemi vs. Buick. I vote for the Hemi vz. Buick folks to please get on with their lives and move on. It's like constantly debating over a high school football game from 25 year's ago..............build a bridge and get over it.

    Buick vs Hemi this could go on forever. What should be done would to take two concours restos and build two pure stock engines, not NHRA stock but pure stock just the way they rolled out the factory door. Then race them using the same driver for time only runs. That might prove something conclusive. Hey in the old days my buddy and I had very similar cars, we raced and he beat me one car length. We swaped cars and he beat me again by one car length. For the foreseeable future there will always be two old men sitting around in the nursing home argueing about this subject.
