Sick Grand National

They recently ran an article on my buddies GN. I can tell you first hand that this GN is unbelievable. It wheelies down the track.

They were supposed to be red instead of black but i forget off top of my head the reasoning they changed to all black.
I love these cars and always thought i would eventually buy one but that dream is just fading away the more and more i really think about it. Sick cars thou, haven't seen any real nasty ones on the street lately.

"Most" of my racing these days is at the track. Not much around here worth losing my license for. The only cars that seem to want any are 13 & 14 second cars I usually just run it at Track rentals, or N/T runs. I look forward to seeing all you guys this summer!

Yeah...I'm sure thats mine, I'm the only GN in Warminster (Fully caged, exhaust ALWAYS open, Slicks, "Barely Legal" across the windshield). I raced a Z06 last year up 611, and I killed him. It was a yellow 06... He must have not liked my plate..."V8 KILER" We got to light and he gave me a nice rev. I nodded and built up boost, we launch and the guy was in my rear view mirror that fast. Hew turned off before we could get together at the next light I Love beating up on a $60k car with a 22 year old 6 banger!

Thats a bad ass GN. A buddy of mine was featured in GM high tech performance a while back for his GN swapped formula firebird. That was a sick car. I believe the article was called bye-bye birdy or something.
