what was the quickest buick in stock

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Jason Line's C/SA GS that Alf Wiebe also drove would be up there. gsa612

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

I would second Jason's car, very quick!!!

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

That was the first one that came to my mind as well.

How about Tom Rix. Didn't he have a quick one?

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Toms car was an Apollo with a 455 in the short lived Top Stock category in Division 3. WHile really fast, not an NHRA legal combo from an availabilitystandpoint as a factory car and the top stock rules allowed quite a number of parts NHRA does not allow. As an aside, Tom currently owns the Dave Benisek/Doug Jones "Factory"GS stage 1 racecar as well. I think the Jason Line car was the fastest full weight 455 GS I ever remember seeing-what a car!

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Jason Line ran in the 10.30's in C/SA a few year back. That's the quickest Buick I've seen. I'd be curious to know what's the quickest pass by a real small block Buick. I know Chris Stephenson has been in the 11.40's.

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

The car that Alf Weibe/Jason Line drove is a very fast car. Low 10's by that heavy a car is impressive. My pick for fastest real Buick.

I remember the Dave Benisek Buick that killed in class back then.

LYN , the quickest Buick I ever saw was in Columbus . LOL

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Tom had several Buicks at the same time. He did run the Appollo in NHRA and IHRA Top Stock if I remember correctly. That car was sold several years ago.

He has sold the Jones and Benisek Stage II car a few years ago.

He still has the Silver Stage I Car that he won Top Stock at Norwalk Ohio. I think that car is for sale. It has been very fast.

He has restored a Triple Black 455 GS with a four speed for the street.
He is currently restoring a 66 Nova with a 327 4 Speed combination.

Dave Benisek and his group are still doing their thing with a Buick Apollo at the annual Buick thing in Bowling Green. They pretty consistently win their class.

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Was the Jason Line car for sale recently???

no

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Thanks for the update, Robin! I have a large wheels up picture of that J&B car hanging on my living room wall, shot at Norwalk at the Buick raceday in May of 04. I was not aware Tom sold it, although I knew the Apollo had been sold. He certainly had the cream of the Buick racing crop for awhile there.......

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

There are a lot of fast Buick stockers with Jason probably leading the pack in C. As for fastest Buicks in F, its gotta be between Lenny Williams and John Osborne.

Re: quickest "real" buick stock
 

Nothing like a Buick stocker! Fast with class , and Tom Rix's stuff is always perfection at its best.
