    Integrated Jacks

    I know on out GT3 Cup car we have integrated jacks. Never heard of anyone using electric (as far as a race application they'd be pretty slow compared to compressed air). Most compressed air/nitrogen jocking systems are just called compressed air systems. We (and all most teams) utilize nitrogen...

    New 1/4 mile record for Chi-Town!

    Talked to Ron sr. and jr., I'm sure they'll chime in and I don't have any real info but they did say its a new install. The shifter looks kinda cool in the console too. I know there is video, but to see the TT's really sing and pull the car from about the 500' mark to the end was unreal.

OLXRAM, I know Byron is open for at least 2 more weekends (weather permitting of course). And rumor has it next weekend might be nice if it doesn't rain. I know mike and...

    New 1/4 mile record for Chi-Town!

    Congrats to SVSi, that car was impressive with the 9.4's at 149. Funny thing is the car even when pulling 1.5 60' didn't look like it was flying off the line, but then to see that thing after it shifted (whew it was moving). Paolo's car was equally impressive, seems at though that belt was the...

    SWEET REVENGE: NOS Corvette succumbs to the power of the S/C!!!!

    There was an '03 S/C Z06 at the track friday running 5lbs of boost. Went 12.0 (once) but only at 116-117mph on drag radial. Not too impressive

    Check Engine Light??

    On the dyno you may have built up extra heat through the cats and back to the O2's. Try the ingnition reset trick (with car off, turn key to on (not start) and back off. Repeat this about 10 times in succesion). This will clear the code. Then drive normally (for you of course rich). If it comes...

    piston info for nos (help)

    Jason, SMS Racing has take Butch The Snake's 2001 GTS with intake, headers, exhaust to 10.42@134 back to back. This was done on a 150 shot. The creampuff motor (i.e. 2000-2002 motor) can take up to a 200 shot with proper tuning. With some head work and a nice cam, low 10's are in the mix. Give...

    Next VCA drag race, 1/4 mile

    St. Louis is a great place but again, Gateway It'l raceway is and NHRA track. Probably not gonna get a street trim setup to run 8-10's more than once. G- the track the event was at in WI is very leanient. That may just be a great place for that reason alone. With a little more track prep it can...
