Always counting his "Chickens before they are hatched", heaping on the fertilizer and counting the bushels per acre before the corn is out of the ground, braying like a jackass in the farm lot before the race with the camel. The camel COULD kick you a$$, then what would you do TTB? Most JUST WANT TO SEE A CV-1 HEADED ENGINE MAKE SOME REALLY GOOD POWER AT NORWALK - AFTER YEARS AND YEARS OF TALKING Fulton and Mike Leech work hard and have a high success rate so here is your chance. (Don't screw it up). Tom V. With Fulton involved you have a very good chance to be in the winners circle. So how many passes are the guys going to run 1/8th AND 1/4 mile?

 No offense intended George. I think a 14-71 might be better than overdriving the 8-71.(Think turbo instead George) As a bracket car it does what its supposed to, run consistant and reliably. That is what Georges build was intended to do, not intended to be a heads up racer. |

If George could figure out how to fit TTB under the hood, he could make some serious Boost (Hot Air) really work for him with the methanol fuel George likes to run.
 #18,638 posts plus the 5891 posts I lost a few years ago that you (in your vast wisdom) were not aware of TTB. Funny, no one has even hear of you being involved in ANY boosted Twin Turbo engine project, Bill. Much less collect some "wood' for the knowledge. Tom V.

Yes Bruce 14-71 would make it quicker and turbos ARE boring, I'm very limited on how much BOOST I can run BUT like you said it is only a Bracket car. The Pro Gas class I've been running in the Nostalgia Races all use 8-71 (BIG Block Chevy's, BB Fords & some BB Mopars and they all seem to be light under 3,000 lbs) and Im running with them. I didn't build as a Dyno Queen or Test & Tune car like a couple on this PY board............I race it in Competition!! GTO George |

Yep, Turbos are boring. Full body 70 Camaro match racing (WITH TURBOS), and he isn't even close to the record.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKuicpkm08I And the dairy boys with their light aze rollerskate "Pontiac World Champion" dragster were how fast, George? and this Twin Turbo Door car is 40 MPH faster than the dairy boys dragster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9rnDwrgpek Tom V.

Also, I hope you dont think Im just a test and tune racer. it has taken a little longer then what I thought to get a handle on the suspension and getting the gearing and tune squared away nut I think we have that all squared away.

You are an old guy living in the 60s mindset who wants to remain there "as a racer" because you are comfortable with driving an low 8 second car. Just admit it. Most of the other Pontiac people have. Travis Q will be the first to tell you they are not competitive against a 275 MPH car today. Travis can at least admit that there are Other Cars that he tunes that are a lot faster vs the "fastest" pontiac guys as their "Banner Guy(s)". I learned early on that the Pontiac GTO was not a Ford GT-40 or a Shelby Cobra. They were World Class Racers. So I bought a 64 GTO and kept it all these years. It is a piece of metal. We only have 10 cars (like mine) in the Registry out of the whole group of 64 GTO owners in the world. BFD. It is a car I bought 50 years ago. I stopped living in the past a long time ago. I can acknowledge that there are faster race cars today than any time in racing history. Get over it Grandpa, put a rocking chair in your 74 Nova and go for a ride down the track. The Ford GTs I worked on could run 200 mph and be driven on the street. So when I post up some current level race stuff and say that the current heroes are not Gods, don't get such a hard-on about someone telling the truth, even though you do not want to acknowledge it. Tired of your BS, your excuses, and your constant name calling. Tom V. ps You trash others constantly that are working hard to go quicker. Every year you talk big and at the end of the day still run the same times. Good for you that you still want to drive a race car, just lay off of the guys who are trying to do better than you, George, who post on the board too. Your name calling, Muppets, etc gets old. Shortly Mike L will be in the 7s, you will still be trying to figure it out because your Nostalgia EGO will not let you accept knowledge from others.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
