A Little Lesson in BLACK!
 

I am new to this site...and I was browsing through the archives of some races against the Buick Grand National. I thought I would share a little insight into this car before you all go out and pick a fight with one.

This video is on the GNX, however, a few mods to a standard Grand National, will put it at the same or higher level than the GNX.

Enjoy!

There was a GNX on Ebay that just sold. It had like 200 original miles on it. It was up to $25k with a day left. Beautiful car but a regular Grand National would be easier to find for alot cheaper.

For a show car, I'd love to have a GNX :cool:

We are all aware of what they are and arent capable of.

blue oval 50h is correct. I think that you'll find most educated Ford enthusiest's know very well about the potential of the turbo Buick's.
There are a number of very mean turbo Buicks around here. But I think thats because Bucks County is home to Dennis Kirban, Dale Cherry, and Dave H., some of the higher reguarded Buick specialists around.

Well, if you are aware of what they can do...then you know its best not to piss us off! You wont like the outcome

I raced a buick gn in my chevelle, I dont know if it was stock or what but when we raced I pulled on him hard, of course my chevelle is not exactly slow. I think the Grand nationals are very nice cars, and im not talking trash on them, but like i've always been told theres always a faster car out there! Wich i've found to be very true..........Just my .02 :)

Welcome aboard to MW, 1BadGN. Good to have a GN guy here. I LOVE GNs. I'd have to say that after Mustangs, GNs are my 2nd favorite type of car.

That said, what is your purpose here??? Whether you believe it or not we are not all idiots here. We don't need illumination from some teen newbie on how fast GNs are :rolleyes: (And if you're older than a teen, then act your age...). No one here really gives a CRAP if any GN guy get's "pissed" or not. Ease up, try to have a little respect, and respect will be given in return. Have a nice day! :)

must be Garbage Nite, somone's gotta take out the trash

Oh I think I am acting my age! I wont say what that is, but lets just say its older than "teen" ok!

Anyhow, my purpose here is just to stir the pot on you rustang lovers! Why? Cause all through my teenage years I owned GM cars, and had the pleasure of waxing many o rustangs with my Chevy IROC & Pontiac Firebird. Now, that I have a GN, I can continue to slaughter 5.0's at any given time!

Thats all

Welcome.

I might advise you to tone it down a notch. There is a guy who hangs around here with a GN and a TTA. Both cars are mint, and he knows a good deal about them, and Mustangs.

I would like to see your mighty IROC and Firebird against some 5.0's now. Seems like you need to be reminded that the aftermarket support for the 302 came alive in the late 90's and I've personally seen some cars with very little done to them run VERY well. You may be suprised that the your GN has its work cut out for it by very mundane looking cars.

If your looking for trouble, try MustangWorld. If you want some intelligent discussions on cars and races, stay put.

By how much? Let's guess, you've been out of your teen's for at least a day or two right?

4 cyls rustangs don't count, you know that right?

Post some times for this killa GN. Don't talk smack without some scanned and posted timeslips. I want to see if my little 8 cyl turbo powered car even has a chance:D ?

I dont have the Iroc or the Firebird anymore. Just the GN. However I am looking to Buy a 89 Turbo Trans Am soon.

Anyhow, The GN is a garage queen. You Ford owners can run your cars daily...as Ford is good enough to be a daily driver. But a car like a GN you dont want to put the wear or milage on. Its like a fine wine...gets better with age.

I have come up against a few of you Fanatics (when I say fanatic, I mean the loud exhaust which is really irritating, the stupid rims, the lowering of the car....you know, you give it that "Rice" look)
on the road here in Vegas, and its not even a race 1/2 the time.
One car did give me a bit of a challenge...an 03 Cobra. But in the end, he got smoked as well!

You all should come out to Vegas in November. The LVMSW is hosting a Buick Grand National event one weekend (I forget which). Went last year, best time was 7.95 @140....like to see a rustang pull those numbers...dont forget friends, its a V6

I'm out!

Kinda like the 87 GN here where I live.........Pink pin stripe, 18" spinners, lots o stickers, retarded exhaust........You'll always find guys doing crap like that to nice cars, not all mustang owners "rice out there cars"

hmm, you have a car that is so great but you don't drive? You seem to be dissing us when you say that we can drive our cars everyday. WTF?

Be gone, troll.

7.95 @ 140, It would be nice IF that was you car. What does your car run? I have put the smack down on quite a few GNs. Yes they are nice, yes their value is growing every year. But occasionally a punk like you gets his hands on one. I have family in Vegas, I may just show up that weekend and look you up so you can show me.
People who run 7s don't talk smack, grow up tinny.

Well, if you have family here, come on out! Dont be suprised if you get flamed by the GN boys by bringing that Mustang with you!
I think the LV F Body Club will be there as well...I am sure they WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU!!!!

What does your car run?

You are just blowing smoke, and are losing credibility with every post that talks about how fast other peoples cars are. I'm going to lake Mead this weekend, how about we meet up somewhere and you show me the GN?

Friend of mine has a Mustang II that runs 8.88 in the 1/4. There is mustangs on ESPN that run 5's in the 1/4 mile. Big F-ing deal. They are not my cars so who cares. You going to talk trash do it about YOUR own car!!!
If you want to just stir up the pot go hurass some Honda Sites. They are so much more fun to piss off. With American cars dying out (eg Camero, Trans-am) us American cars need to stick together.

7.95@140 that shows me you know nothing about drag racing and youve never raced you car before. I knew you would go for the usual GN FAG statement "its only a 6" handicap bull$hit. Keep that $hitter in the garage and keep typen little girl w/ a 6

Seems like kids like this show up once a month now.Last one was 15 if i remember correctly.I'll just lean back and watch the show. :D

Don't start arguing with me though.I only replied so i can get an e-mail every time someone else replies in this thread.

Well,
I emailed and PM'ed him my cell phone #. Considering I'm going to be about 35 minutes from where he claims to be, we'll see if the car exists.

Any bets on the excuse he gives for not meeting up with me. I mean obviously he won't come out and say he doesn't have the car, but I can't see any other reason to not take 30 minutes to meet up at a burger joint (or casino) to prove us all wrong.

GN's are quick for what they are. But you will find that if you try and mar it heavily you will replace the block. Stick a turbo (or scharger) on a 5liter. a guy that races at my local track has one and it is fairly fast it also has a 350.:eek:

I should come to expect talk like "GN FAG" when its from people who live in New Jersey! Talk about the toilet of the whole country. "What exit do you live off of?" JERK!

I emailed back the guy who wants to see my car....no excuses and am more than happy to show up. I have nothing to hide, and if all you other gearheads want to see it, I will post the pics for you....Her last apprasial came in at $25,000...not bad for a car that RETAILED for $17,000 new..........

Exit 131 off the Parkway, toilet eh? Your black car looks like something i just laid down in the toilet! So what track did you run your 7.95@140? Did a stang drag you down the track after half track? The truth hurts, you aint got nothin

How much does that hooker on the corner retail for?

Oh, you are so right blue oval (could you be anymore gay?)
If you HAVE to know which track I use, it would be the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Obviously you have know Idea what you are talking about when it comes to Las Vegas (or cars for that matter) Look at where you live, and if you can afford a plane ticket to come here ( trust me, the Ford WILL NOT MAKE IT, so do us a favor and dont attemt to drive here) you will see just how moronic your statement about the hookers was.

Again, I should expect a loser from Jersey to sound EXACTLY like you do....nothing good has ever come out of Jersey.

I guess you work at a casino? (bull)Craps table?

Lock it up
 

Kevin, you really should close this thread in my opinion. Anyone who frequents the track sees fast Mustangs and fast GN's. Name calling really accomplishes nothing.

Re: Lock it up
 

I agree completely.........;)

You slipped! A 7 sec car vs 12sec car and gave you a challenge? Please tell me how. But for now, your just another member here busting our balls! Maybe you are Tireburner? I really dont know, but I calling your bluff. :D

James:cool:

Does anyone have a supra site we can send this guy to? Where they can act like 5 year olds saying my car is the fastest in the whole world for hours on end. Wont their parents be proud.

He's probably running on an 1/8 mile track and doesn't even know it.:D

And 1badgn saying that a mustang can't take a trip is bull$hit.I've taken my stang on trips for hours at a time without a break,and it didn't show the slightest sign of overheating or nothing like that.

7.89@140 in the 1/8 or 1/4 mile does not add up. 7.89 in the 1/8 would be in the 85 mph range. But he's 50mph over that!! Some beast you got there! :rolleyes:

I just ran 7.72 @ 92 in the 1/8th on my street tires, that means that my ol grinch is badder than a GN. MY GOD I bet I will not sleep tonight.

Sorry SVR1, amazingly this guy is this stupid in real life.

As for you 1BadGN, your a troll you just stirs up crap. I rank you a notch below the Honda drivers at the local crusie spot.

Dan, lock this thing down, and get the troll off the boards for good
