I stand corrected, I just remember that the Gallinas had both cars at Mission years ago, when his turbo V6 became the first S/Stocker to record a 7 second ET.
As for the Turbo Buicks being slow to spool up, in the early-mid 90s, we had a group of about 10 Grand Nationals that always raced and pitted together at Mission, they called their group "The Black Plague". They would start loading the engine against the brakes before the first stage light, and often spent a minute or so slowly creeping in to light the bottom bulb, at WOT. I could only imagine how hot their ATF got during that! I have not seen any of them since NHRA implemented the 7 second staging program.
