Here is my good friend Rich Rezes' "SLVRSTG" 87 Regal. It boasts a 274 cu in off center Buick Motorsports stage 2 engine. It has just gone 9.87 @ 136 with 1.33 shorts..   that equates to somewhere around 750hp. A pretty stout car I will say. With Rich launching off the transbrake, be often trips the 60' beams with the REAR tires, often carrying the front wheels more than 60 feet! Not bad for an insurance guy huh?

NEWSFLASH!! Rich just broke his previous best with a 9.71@ 138.12 with a 1.34 60 foot!!







Here is a launch with Rich and Jack Cotton going at it at Cecil County Raceway 10/9. Jack hurt the differential in his car. Heh, seems Jack always hurts something against Rich. Wonder if Jack is SKEERED! hahaha
Here is a video of the pass. Rich at 9.87, and a vid of Rich completing his final competition license run is right here , and finally, Rich running fArtie Paltz is here.


Here is a couple pics of a car I did at work. Its a 55 BelAir 4 door that had a straight 6 in it. It was converted to a V8 by me. All custom fabrication and wiring from the dash forward was done by me. I am really proud of how it came out. The pics here dont really do it justice. It is a show quality job by far. The owner is ecstatic at how it came out. I am currently waiting for the custom bent front pipes and shortened driveshaft for use with the more modern TH350 trans.  I will say this, I have over 40hrs into this conversion. Its no simply undertaking. I mean, you could slap the stuff together, and twisy tie the wires, but I soldered everything, painted everything, etc..etc. Take a look!
