Our test and tune happened finally at Lebanon Valley Speedway in NY. This is a 9 sec Buick. Big Block with a Turbo. He took off his wheelie bar to do some showing off for the crowd.

Nice capture. The back tires look like a steamroller!

That's what this was for us. Make sure you go to the tower and tell them you are a photog. They'll make you sign a waiver and you can sit right on the wall in between the track and the return lane. BRING A CHAIR!! I forgot one and stood for almost 6 hours there.

Love seeing the Buicks, I'm used to seeing the turbo V6 variant at the track though.

Not at all......there are plenty of V6 Regals and Grand Nationals running 7's in the 1/4 mile. :D
