February 1987 Motor Trend Article!

"1987 was the last year for the Buick Regal and the Grand National .  26,555 Turbo Regals were sold, of which 20,193 were Grand Nationals. Buick made some changes to the powertrain and power increased to 345 bhp and 355 lb-ft and 245 horse power.

The 1987 was the fastest accelerating production car until the 1993 Porsche Carrera.

Ive made quite a few modifications over the years to my car and they are listed below.

My car currently does 13.1 in the quarter at Napierville on slicks
Pics and videos from the track coming soon
