I bought the car two years ago and to make a long story short - I had the wrong person building the car.
Thanks to Ron Zitza of Zotz Racing we now have something to work with that doesen't leave a trail of parts on the track. The car was set up for HSR with a 2.5L running PMO's. Dynoed at 270HP. It has been described as a go cart on steroids. I ran Hoosier radials this weekend and it stuck anywhere I put it - that is till I drove through some sand in turn 5. I turned a 120.99 lap time in practice. I did get in 11 laps but ended with a DNF stuck in the sand. Bill |

I would like to have finished the race but it will still count for my license. Bill |

Hey Doug, sorry I really didnt get to much of a chance to BS, I was up to my elbows in that 935 rebuild. We did get our car back on track, and were turning low 1:15's in practice and qualifying.... Billy gridded in 13th pos, jumped 4 cars on the green flag, then passed 3 cars to take 6th place., but then I was on the radio to him telling him to pass some more cup cars Nad those pesky GT3RS's, and he spun off.. In all he ended up 10th and 2nd in class..
We drove 15 hours from NY, bent some valvbles in test and tune, got some valves and gaskets from Perfomance Imports in Atlanta, and did a valve job on 3.8 turbo engine on saturday morning.. Came rain wind sleet and bent valves we were going to be in that race.. Savannah/Roebling Road was a great few days of racing.. I cant wait to get back there next year!! |
