Who Is Going To Zmax Raceway - NMCA Index Rumble 8-6,7,9
The NMCA will be hosting many classes at this event. One of the most popular classes is the Index Rumble. This year it will be LS powered vehicles vs Ford and so on. The payout is $2,500 regardless of car count. Plus you will get some other nice prizes.
The track is 10 hours (600 miles) away from Old Bridge Raceway Park. I know that Edgar will be there as well as myself. As I write this, I just completed my work on the Pace Car for this event. I installed a HOWE. Not Chris, I installed a HOWE aluminum race radiator. After installing the radiator, I drove the car around and the trans temp would not go above 140 degrees.
Now my concentration will be on winning and not over heating the trans. 
I also ordered new drag radials for this event.
I will be representing East Coast Supercharginng Racing Team. The name speaks for it self for there results in the Road Racing and Drag Racing sport.
For those that enjoy Index racing, this would be the time to step up and go to the next level. This will be the best of the best going for that one goal - To be #1.
As most of you already know about the track, this track has 4 lanes and is the most likely the best track in the country. If you decide not to go, you will be missing a great event. The NMCA always has a great show.
In addition to this event, The Hot Rod Power Tour is making this there last stop to prove there street driven vehicles potential.
This is one of only three events I have been waiting to race since last year.
This will be in the Dec. issue of Hot Rod magazine. I am sure there will be other magazines covering this event.
Wish all of us GOOD LUCK.

When a shop will bend over backwards to make a customer happy, satisfied and fix the problem. How could you not represent them?

If you don't want to race, why not go as a spectator? Great fun for people not racing.

I am going to give the tires another chance. I had a similar problem with the Hoosiers. The Hoosier 275's did not work at all with my car, but the 315's worked great.
I am having the tires shipped to the track.
I would think any 315 will work with a car running 11.50.
