I though you guys would get a kick out of this stuff. Oh by the way I'm a newbie. This is my first post. I don't own a TR, but I used to. It was a 87 GN with a few bolt ons, until it was stolen. It now belongs to my brother ( Boosted6) waiting to be refurbished. Anyways I can't kick the love for TR's, I'll own one again someday. Now to the good stuff...... :rock:


YOU MIGHT RACE A BUICK IF ...

*Race prepping your car means turning off the ac.
*You have a "Big is Beautiful" license plate holder.
*You have safety harnesses instead of seat belts for five occupants.
*You only have to be careful of traffic AHEAD of you when you merge onto the Interstate
*Your race car has never been on a trailer.
*You think anything less than a 455 is a small block.
*You won't race motorcycles beacuse it isn't fair . . . to them!
*You've ever had to take a different route because of bridge weight limits.
*You plan road trips from gas station to gas station.
*Your wife's car runs 12s.
*You painted your riding lawnmower black and turbocharged it.
*You think 5000 pound cars and stationwagons are great dragstrip material.
*The wrecker service calls you when they get their rigs stuck.
*You have heard the phrase "That's a Buick!? from more than 5 punk kids in Daddy's 'Vette after you shut them down.
*You have sucked so many bumpers off other cars, your car is nicknamed "The Hoover."
*18 wheelers yield to you.
*You can fit a month of groceries in your trunk and still run 12s.
*You've ever been pulled over for failing to stop at a weigh station.
*Your car has more towing capacity than a one ton duelie.
*You think every race car should have ac and power windows.
*You get signed thank you cards from the presidents of Phillips 66 and Texaco at Christmas.
*You think every four door should have a cam, headers and slicks and runs 12s.
*The phrase "231? Is that all?" and "That ain't no V6!" make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.
*You've said "No, it's not an SS" more than 3 times this week.
*You've never seen the tail lights of a Mustang GT.
*Your friend's 5.0 'Stang runs 13s by being towed behind your car.
*The local Mustang guys are claiming they've been abused because your car spanks them so bad.
*You've raced your daily driver against a tube frame, blown, nitroused big block powered 'Stang . . . and won.

Actually I do think that in order to call any car that gets raced a street car, it should have A/C and power windows and a full interior and a stereo and get better than 15mpg with the cruise control on. :anbet: otherwise it is just a registered race car :yessir:

Guilty!

When I was driving my 73 Electra, I managed to pull big rigs out of the snow with it. Even made the paper once while I was doing it :deal: , but they called it a Cadillac! :dong:
That car was huge and heavy and I loved it. Damn the rust demons!

The funny thing is, that was the smallest truck I tangled with.
The first was a 10 wheel construction truck.
Then I pulled that truck out and made the paper.
About a week after that, I pulled out a full-on 18 wheeler with a trailer! :SHOCKED: I wished the paper had a shot of that one instead.


:anbet: Buick Muscle!
