[s-cars] Buick Grand National comparo

[Evan Levine]

Grand nationals run in the 10's and 11's all the time at the
drag-strip I frequent. I've never seen one run worse than 12's in the
last couple years. This is of course with drag slicks... but I
wouldn't mess with them in an Audi. Completely different type of car.
