Scott,
One of the very few pictures I took happened to be with the Gremlin and your friend's Buick. Dennis Last edited by SD455DJ; 09-29-2020 at 07:02 AM. |

That 11 second Gremlin sounds more like a F.A.S.T. car than pure stock. I'm guessin it's real light?

The Gremlin XR401 is a dealership transplant car in the same vein as the early Yenko or Motion Camaros (pre-COPO) where you could order your 401 in a level of performance you desired and could afford. This is the only known legit Randall 401 Gremlin with original owner documentation and pictures when new from Randall after the conversion.
The OO ordered it with a hi-po Crane cam (solid?), Holley 750 DP on an Edlebrock hi-rise dual plane intake, Hooker headers, and a 4.10 rear end. That's pretty much how the car was rebuilt today except for a complete roller cam and valve train. The rear gear might have been switched to a 3.73 IIRC. It was weighed at the race with Scott driving at 3005 lbs. It isn't a pure stocker or even a FAST car for that matter for all the obvious aftermarket engine parts. Dennis |

Doesn't matter if that Gremlin isn't PS or FAST ...it was really rare and bad ass!!!

So glad to see you had a successful event Dennis despite all the weirdness going on.
Just for the record, there are plenty of 11 second cars that fit the Pure Stock rules |

We had 5 cars in the 11's, one breaking out with an 11.41. Paul Aragona in his '74 SD455 Formula ran an 11.92! So is officially the quickest SD455 Bird in Pure Stock history. Dennis |
