Skunk2 Needs a Reality Check

Over this past weekend I was reading S3 magazine. I think this was actually one of the first times that I actually sat down and read this particular magazine cover to cover and it was quite enjoyable. I did get to one part that irked me a good bit, Skunk2's new ad for their Billet Vtec Solenoid. The ad's text goes into a tangent on how Skunk2's products continue to get knocked off, copied, etc, etc. Blasting these so called "copycat" companies and trying to set Skunk2 up on a pedestal. In the past I thought this was good marketing...

The IPGParts.com race team travelled to Palm Beach Intl Raceway this past weekend for the finale of the Tropical Endurance Series (November 12-13th, 2011).

The team competed with the 1993 Acura Integra GS setup for the Improved Touring A (ITA) Class during the season and at the finale. Earlier in the year a test session was done at the Palm Beach Intl Raceway (PBIR) road course to familiarize drivers Louis Murphy...
NSCRA Changes Up Class System

No one seems to like change. But without change you can’t continue to move forward. The NSCRA recently changed their entire set of racing classes and it as definitely a shock to everyone. With only 2 weeks before the final event of the 2011 racing season the NSCRA shook up their entire show. Everyone has to be able to agree that a change did need to occur with the way the racing classes were setup. Although the turnout was okay this year it wasn’t a sustainable system to grow into the future. The much broader class system is a sure...

Just got back from the World Cup Finals for the first time and I must say I am quite impressed. I have heard about the magnitude of the event for a couple of years now and after experiencing it firsthand it is still a little amazing to me the amount of racers that turn up for this once yearly showdown. Racer count has been admittedly down over the last couple of years throughout the entire Drag Racing community but Jason Miller and the Maryland International Raceway crew somehow manages to bring in some of the most competitive Sport Compact and...
