Looks like the guys at Road Race stopped by an elementary once to show kids their possibilities if they do well in school. I got stock cars, these kids got to see a road racing car. Life can be cruel. |
You know, either these guys have a bit too much free time on their hands or Tony Stark comes by more often than not. |
“Tony Stark was able to build this in a cave! With a box of scraps!“ Well, technically, Obadiah would be right this time. I think it's nearly all Mitsubishi parts that have no more use anymore. |
Well, one of the benefits of taking a self-guided shop tour is being able to see what you want, when you want. I got a sneak preview of what the RRE Dynapack Dyno was capable of recording and some of the tuning magic that Mike Welch is the master of. |
This particular car is fueled by E85, which RRE sells and installs kits to make nearly any car run on it. It offers better octane than race gas offers and a cooler flame but at half the cost and that is why many turbo and high compression cars run it. E85 comes at a cost to fuel economy though, as it takes nearly 30% more fuel to burn when compared to gasoline. Water injection has come on the forefront of power modifiers, so I wonder how long E85 will hold its reign on “cheap thrills.” |
Oh, and E85 still booms out of the exhaust like race gas, too. I offer this as evidence. Nothing like flame burping out of any exhaust on any car, unless it's stock then you've got some serious issues. |
