    Just have a simple request for any of you that are turbo'd. I tried looking on YouTube and couldn't find any decent videos of NORMAL turbo grand prix. Not race cars, but just normal DD grand prix. So maybe someone could make a video of theirs :-)

    I don't know what videos you are looking at, but there are a lot of 11-12 second cars that are daily drivers, they may be in race trim, but most drive them to the track and have the tires and tools in the trunk.

    Here's a good video/mix, he demodded and moved on to a gto years ago.

    I think this one may be a DD still...

    Just bought a turbo car. It was in pieces when I purchased it. Just rebuilt the lower half and started it last night. Still have a lot of bugs to work out but hoping to have it finished in the next week.

    I just posted my race against a sprayed Regal in the kill section. Also my YouTube channel has a few including some dyno pulls. And mine is a daily driver. Are you looking for anything specific?

    This one is indeed a daily driver. Thats my friend Alex. Car ran 10.40's with a slipping trans. Has a lot more room to go. He snapped his chain a few weeks ago though and I got it on video. It was good stuff.
