Sport Compact Camshafts By Aaron Bonk Webster’s Dictionary defines the word “cam” as a disk or cylinder having an irregular form such that its motion – usually rotary – gives a rocking or reciprocating motion to any contiguous part. In other words, when rotated, a cam will impart its irregular, out-of-round or eccentric shape onto the given corresponding object. The camshaft then, is simply a rod-shaped device that hosts one or more cams and is able to react against multiple objects all at once. And while cams may be found in any number of mechanical devices ranging from furniture hardware...

ET STREET, ET STREET RADIAL, AND ET DRAG AIR PRESSURE GUIDELINES

PROPER AIR PRESSURE Proper air pressure is critical to the best performance of your ET Drag or ET Street racing tires.

Modern Day Barn Find -- BBS 4x100 Drag Wheels

This story is still amazing to me. The wheels are finally here and I still don't really believe it. Anyone that may of been associated with FWD Drag Racing for a while might remember a very rare, not very used drag wheel built by BBS back in the late '90s, early 2000's. I have known about these 4x100 BBS Drag Wheels since approximately 2004 when the only 2 sets that I knew of in existence belonged to Stacey Hyche and Tracey Hyche who ran a NDRA Turbo 4 Integra and a NDRA Comp 4 Civic. They were also offered in...

Mickey Thompson Tires Service Life

UNDERSTANDING THE SERVICE LIFE OF YOUR M/T TIRES DETERMINING THE AGE OF A TIRE The manufacturing date of a tire is incorporated into an 11 digit code, called a TIN (Tire Identification Number) located down by the bead of the tire. The only exception would be most Pro Drag Radials, which do not incorporate traditional TIN's. On street legal tires, the TIN is preceded by the letters "DOT". The last four numbers of the TIN represent the week and year of manufacture. In the Example below, this tire was produced the 35th week of 2008. EXAMPLE: CY1JM5FJ3508 (3508 = date...
