9 Second Buick GSX Stage2 GS Stage1 9.51 @ 140
We originally built this car with Frank Urbinati back in 1996.It debuted at the GS Nationals where it won the GS Pro Street class races. It was also the 1st GS Pro Street class car to break into the 9's at the time.Thanks to Frank this project came to life. Fast forward to 2010 and the car has been taken over by Bob Ortolani,the car still looks great and Bob decided to bring it up another level. We were happy to have the car come back to our shop and to have the opportunity to work with Bob and put together the new powerplant. The video shows the results of our 1st day out to tune the engine. The 1st two passes were shakedowns to check fuel/oil pressures and get a feel for the new combo. By the 3rd run we had posted a 9.62 @ 138 hitting the 7100rpm rev limiter chip! The 4th run was a 9.52 @ 140. On the 5th run it went 9.51 @ 140.65! After a good cool down and a timing adjustment we were ready to try for a 9.40 run, launching right off idle the car gave us a nice big unexpected wheelie! The wheelie sure lookes cool but we know we can go quicker with a little more suspension work to straighten out the launch and try to keep the front down. We're sure it'll go into the 9.40's yet and maybe even 30's after everything is worked out.

Trip to Vegas to race Rich's 71 Buick GS at Pinks all out
September 8 2007, Las Vegas, Nevada.
We drove just under 400 miles to race in Pinks all out. Rich's 71 Buick GS 455 is procharged on Mickey Thompson drag radials. He didnt get into the final 16 but we had good times.
Driving the M22
My first attempt at a video while driving. Just rebuilt the 455 stage 1 and M22 4-speed in this 1971 Buick GS convertible and the gears whining in the M22 "rockcrusher" really took me back to the '70s and '80s when these transmissions were the "holy grail" of GM gearboxes. I will do a feature on this rare and unusual Buick soon...
