    New adventure.. Go Kart Racing

    I know first hand that the motors were breaking at Miller because of high RPMs on the long front and back straight - 75% of the time was over 7,000 rpm. All the rods broke in the same spot. Burris is working on an upgraded rod but for the track we are racing at (http://www.nolamotor.com), this...

    Did you race at Miller by chance? Emmick chassis, ~18hp YF200 motor. Wes

    New adventure.. Go Kart Racing

    The picture you have is a circle kart chassis - you've got a road course chassis coming but the motor is the same - a Burris racing modified F200. The YF200 motor has a rev limiter in it to keep it from spinning to 10,000 rpm - that is like taking a stock 3v to 8,000 - I bet it will explode...

    2010 gt w/stock motor 11.09@121 on 18in nittos

    Props to Kip on being able to master the Nittos and car combinations -- he is someone that I have seen can always drive a car (more than just this one) to fast ETs -- very good reflection on the skill and awareness of the driver.

    NOLA Motorsports Park Open House

    As some know, last year I began working on a track build here in New Orleans, Louisiana. My focus has been on working with many other brands in addition to Fords and the tech side of racing, driver education and vehicle performance. We're having our first public track tours on Sunday, if you...

    2011 Dyno'd yesterday - mail tune vs custom

    Strange the car made the power it did with an WOP AFR in the 15's. Whether intentional or accidental perhaps there was something influencing the AFR data on the "before" pull? Experience raises a question at the testing method used on the dyno to judge results.
