The other day I’m down having a meeting with the gang at Racepak and MSD Performance, and ended up walking into a test area I probably wasn’t supposed to be in, with stuff that doesn’t quite exist yet, and couldn’t stop myself from snapping some cell phone pictures. Forgiveness is ofter easier to acquire than [...]

Anyone with slicks or a legitimately quick car is required by NHRA to have a Driveshaft Safety Loop. And since I’m the guy who has launched a driveshaft out of a car that DIDN’t have a loop, I can tell you it is not a fun experience. It can tear up the tunnel, scare the [...]

Edelbrock Rereleases the Classic Singshot Intake
Posted in New Products November 21, 2008 by Brian Lohnes

Admittedly, a large part of this whole hot rodding thing is aesthetic. The way stuff looks can, at certain times, be just as important as the way it runs. We find this to be especially true of old, “correct” hot rods. An old Deuce, or Model A looks far more appropriate with a Flattie in [...]
