Your brother has a nicely built car. Those cars can makes some insane power numbers and track times. I'm sure a modest shot of spray will even things up a bit. Time to check out the Nitrous forum for some ideas.

With that turbo and heads, that car is fully capable of a 10 sec pass, so you're going to need alot more than a 150 shot to keep up. He needs to get rid of those rear tires though to do it, needs some 15" rims with a MTs on them, aint going to 60' worth a crap with those low profile tires.
Girdles become a worthwhile investment when running a constant low 11 when building the motor, and just about required to run many 10s.
Whats his userid over on turbobuick.com ?

How big are the wheels on that Buick? They look freaking huge for some reason, like at least 20s.
