It is having some fuel issues right now, but when I ran it on aviation fuel with restrictor plates it managed a 7.93 @ 101mph on the home-made 1/4 mile track. I did not use the "nitros" but it was definitely pulling hard. The time looks a little funny as it layed over a bit on the top end, I just do not think the HEI distributor can handle 9700rpm.

As far as competition goes, I raced a rocket powered grocery cart, it was close, but the cart wrecked as it had that gimpy front caster that plauges many carts. I have a feeling that it was a walmart cart, I may not have such luck if I line up against a target cart...

I have a feeling the buick you have may take me, as my ride is rear wheel drive, and you cannot compare to a front wheel drive car for off the line traction.
LMAO!!!! Linc, I think your problem is that you are tight in, loose out...
