I thought a guy named Bill Sykes ran 9s back in the mid 90's. His car was in the ATR catalogs. I thought the name was Bill Sykes. Maybe someone else will chime in.

I think it's this one:
Turbo & Hi-Tech Performance, July 1996 Volume 12 Number 4
p.42-45, 80, 82-83 Plain-Wrapped Pavement Pounder
Bill Sakes' hardtop 9 second streetable TTA. Also see GSX-tra March/April 1996. 1/4 mi [email protected] mph
 
That thread on TB has a lot of testosterone flying around. Lots of name calling and bashing. If I'm thinking of the right guy, the TTA owner at the reunion is a minister. Wow!

He said its fast then wanted to race. So I said I got 5k to race witch i do any yes that TTA will be in the way . I heard he bought it the way it was. I built all my cars .... so when I get it right its going to be on .... and he wanted to see titles then I told him how many titles I have then he said he didn't ask about titles

There is a thread on his build here somewhere. He had to assemble it. I believe he got the car and the motor but did all the finishing.
 
ya'll should have a grudge match at the Buick Nationals this year.
That would be a crowd pleaser. Same distance for both of ya.
 
There is a TTA that does a massive wheelie on TB.com.. Im guessing thats the fastest TTA with a Stage motor. He has a video of it in the vid section.
Best et and mph to date.......8.10@174 1/4 mile and 5.24@139 1/8 mile @3300lbs with driver
Never mind her it is!

Your are likely not thinking of the correct guy. There is minister here in the Detroit area that was at the reunion, but he is not the Stage 2 owner.
Unless of corse there are two.
