pucker time!Lol miss those gn days! usually they dont fullstage until boost is up,nudge in for the final stage and let r rip! Very nice Gn. The 2-3 shift was like riding on skates for me with my gn. As for Flaco totally bad a$$ and def to to close to call.

cant wait for sequel.

Would have definately been tip for tap. That GN has weight advantage I'd think and 26 lb's of boost... Looks scary to drive. Wt were the solo times?

The Buick I agree took a bit to spool, but didn't sound like he tried to load it too hard. As soon as he released the brake it made power almost instantly. What turbo is he running?

It was a T-67 a few days ago....and luckily it was under warranty.... so now he's trading up a few notches...

One thing for sure never under estimate the hay hauler. Flaco has a bad *** truck. It impresses me to watch him push down the track that fast at over 4000 pounds. I dont think anyone can argue that. . Bad *** gn though!
