Nitrous LDR 1987 Buick Grand National Drag Racer

Chad Henderson's 1987 Buick Grand National is a standout in the Limited Drag Radial class, featuring a nitrous-injected Reher-Morrison 872 cubic-inch big-block Chevy engine. Known for his drive both in farming and racing, Henderson has collaborated with prominent racers like Stevie Fast Jackson. Key modifications include a CTR chassis and suspension, a Mark Williams floater-style rear, and a Turbo400 transmission from PTC. The Grand National rides on beadlocked Sanders rear wheels and Mickey Thompson drag radials. Tuning help comes from Jackson, maintaining the car's competitive edge.
