Yup, thats classic ricer there. They put "slicks" i.e 20 dollar steel wheels with cheap a$$ tires on the front for better traction yo!

He kept letting air out after each run. I heard him mumbling to his "crew" about how he needed to let more air out so he could cut a 60' under 2.0 Stupid kid...that ain't happening on a FWD unless you're running slicks.

There were so many 15/16/17 second imports there, my grandmother who came to watch me was like "I'm pretty sure my buick is faster than some of these cars out here." I just laughed. But she's probably right.
One of my first trips to the track, my buddies actually conned me into running my 91 Regal. It was stock with the almighty "3800 Tune Port Injected" V6, to quote the fender badge. It ran 10.xx in the 1/8 mile, and was faster than an Accord, 2 Civics, a Celica, an Eclipse, a Dodge Stealth, and a Cavalier.
