watch out for those gn's. they can be extremely fast. i've driven a couple. they were fun. the stock one was an eye opener.
for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?

We have one, bought it brand new in 87. Ran 13.96 back in 88 at Ardmoore OK, bone stock. Dad has kept it in a time capsule, has 39,000 miles on it. We used to attend the Buick Nationals in Ennis. Be very careful calling one of these out. They can be a handful......

I own one of these cars so I'll tell you with my own personal experience.
My Buick has a Stage 2 engine with stage 2 heads. It's almost like Buicks version of the mopar preditor heads but from 80's vintage race parts. Well anyway, my car is a proven 9 second sreet car that passes CT emmsions every two years when its required to go. I am now shooting for 8's with some small changes. I'm sure the car your racing may not be as built up as mine, but if it is dialed in, should easily be good for low 12's with a stock turbo and short block. Allan G.

1986 T-Type with 272 Stage 2 Buick V6 engine - True 8 second street car. Just updated the engine and put down 928 HP @ 35# boost to the ground on chasis dyno.

A friends T-type (GN in sheeps clothing) was grandma gray and had full interior, no cage etc. Looked like something you would find on a really clean used car lot.
Car ran 10.80's on DOT stickies! Traction was the main issue.
Car pulled like no street car I've ever ridden in.
