Hey first post here. Lurking for a while. But last night's beating makes me post finally. I have a 92 bubble with a GSR swap and some other things. I run 14.1 in the 1/4.

Over on rt 18 in NJ around 1am I was just driving home and came to a light. This black Buick rolls next to me and gives a few quick revs. I was like what the heck I'll go. Never raced a buick, guess cuz old people hate to race

. Guy was young anyway. So I give him a rev back. I get my revs up, light green, and we go. I get out in front off the launch. Then after 20 mph the Buick just screams past me like nothing... by 80 when I decided I'm not gonna get near him he was about 5 cars ahead at least and still pulling.. What did I get beat by? anyone? anyone? Bueller? Lost him at the next red light he made it I didn't. Would liked to of talked to him.

What I got. It was black with like a gray bottom, dual exhaust, I think FWD (saw em spin up front when we raced), had no emblems on it cept a chrome buick on the rear bumper and a GS on the tail light.

Help?

I was gonna say you got your azz handed to you by a Buick Grand National until you said FWD. My uncle has a Buick regal with a Silver bottom and dual exhaust but it is like a 1985 with 500,000kms and is quite the dog, so it wasn't him anyway.

I got wasted by a modified Grand National with trans brake once. He was 4 car lengths ahead by the time I reached the other side of the intersection.

Best launching car I've ever seen on the street. Gotta love the GNX.

Look up buick models on Google and see what you find.

I know what a GNX is lol I'd be really hesitent to run one of those beasts. It was late model. I'm not having much luck finding good info. Or I'm to retarded right now to function LOL.

Here's some advice on finding the car. Go to ebay, and go in to Buick section. On the side it will a have a list of all the cars buick makes/made, and just go down one by one till you find it.

Yea they are a good sleeper, they actually take very well to mods and are not hard at all to get into the 13's.
