Rotores vs Pistones 01/26/13
 

Last week I had to rush home to PR due to a death in the family. A day after the sad event was over I found out that a big event was happening Saturday at the Salinas Speedway. My thoughts were, I'm here, there is nothing more I can do, I should go and relax my mind. Below are some crappy cellphone pics and videos. The final was between Carlos Racing (3 rotor) and Lazcano/Oso performance "El humilde" (the humble one)...El humilde won with a 6.89 vs a 7.00 from Carlos racing.

It was a crazy event, it was as if 7's were 10's, everybody and their mother was running them and people weren't that amused by them...crazy.

Enjoy

Chris

Te curaste!!!!

The yellow Rx-8 is New Derek which is 12A powered...well into the 7's. Quite a feat IMO.

Looks beautiful it reminds me of pan ams and condolences to you and your family.

Thanks!

do these guys not run intercoolers with those big ass snails?!

Sorry for your loss.

Thanks for the pics Chris! Lots of inspiration right there.

They do not. They run on pure Methanol which has so much of a cooling effect that running an intercooler becomes a drag on airflow. I've even seen several people not run intercoolers when running on E-85.

they are boosting 40+ psi...you have to be there to truly experience the feeling of a 1000whp+ 13b

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Its always hard, even when they are old...

Sorry for your loss. Thanks for the nice pics.

No they don't but as of right now there's a team making changes on their setup and they are going to run an intercooler, if it works out you,ll see a lot of teams using it too.
