[turbo minivan]

thats old!, its like "toofast" on a plate. been done! now, think they would insure a plate that said "RACE ME" on a street rod? maby not eh?

You have to get insurance before you get a plate. So I don't think insurance companies care what kind of plate you have.

Google is your friend:


The final kick of the Grand National was its evolution into the even more outrageous GNX in 1987. It was like the last bright flash of a meteor just before it burns out. The GNX was rated at 300 horsepower, and Car and Driver (5/87) reported a zero to 96 (60)) of 4.7 seconds. Top speed remained controlled at 200 km/h (124 mph).

The regular Grand National and the GNX were very different cars.

I just got back from Michigan where I seen a turbo'd GN run a 8.14@167mph.. Too bad the last race of the night it got beat by a Turbo'd Mustang that runs 7.2@201. :) Some great clips if anyone is interested....

GN driver had a oil line burst and slammed into the wall..

I don't know what that particular car has run in the 1/4 mile, but tuned turbo Buicks are not to be taken lightly. If he calls himself a V8 Killer I'd take him at his word.

stock they ran around 14 seconds - a friend of mine who has modified an '87 ran 12.3 last week at race city - not the car you saw

[AllGoNoShow]

Don't know exaclty v8killers 1/4 mile time. But an 86 GN was running 13.7's stock when they came out, 87 was runnign 13.5.

If you come out to race city there is normally some gns and turbo regals kciking around. 12.13 12.3, 13.1 they can pull soem quick numbers with exhaust and chip and injectors.

a little off "topic", but saw a Cav few days ago w/ the plate "DIEDRE", thought it was funny

[finboy]

i still wouldn't mind "DNTBTHR" but i need to get my car a bit faster for that, lol
