PICS: Late Model Racecraft - LMR - Dyno Day/Car Show at the new shop! First off, I want to thank everyone for coming out. We had a great turnout! It was good to meet new folks, put faces with names, and see the rest of y'all again! The pizza was good but this truly was the highlight of the day, seeing you all and a bunch of kickass cars!
We put over 40 cars on the dyno on what ended up being an honest 100 degree day. Not the best day for dyno numbers, plus our dyno is known to be a tad conservative, but it was GREAT fun nonetheless. Some people got to dyno their car for the first time, which is sometimes rewarding but ALWAYS an eye opener. Had all kinds hit the rollers: Ford, GM, Dodge, and some imports too, including a Subaru and a little FI Miata that put down 300+. We'd hoped to have some of the well known dyno queens in town put on a show but I think the heat scared them off.
There was one really nice white Supra on hand, but a dyno wasn't on the agenda for it. It took a fairly stout Procharged C5 Z06 that gave 560 rwhp to take out the runner up Mercedes twin turbo V12 sedan that showed up and put down 535 at the wheels. No doubt that Benz hurts some feelings, and probably some wallets.
We had a highline opportunity to be able to show off our own product, too. It was VERY rewarding to be able to do a couple of back to back runs with our cold air kit for the 2010 Camaros. One was against an L99/auto 2010 Camaro that was totally stock save the CAI and Corsa axleback. I'll mostly let others share their results so we're not tooting our own horn too much, but we're very happy with these results. The "other" CAI had the benefit of a cooler motor but somehow we used STD CF on this one instead of SAE like we usually do. It's still very indicative though, especially considering how consistent the gains have been with our kits:

Want to see what it does versus a stock airbox with a full exhaust on stock tune?

Again, we're very glad to have been able to host this event and look forward to seeing you the next time around. If you or someone you know is looking to make their car better, from a dyno tune or catback, to a full blown twin turbo giant slayer - we'd be grateful for the opportunity. Thank you all who have given us your support over the years, we'll continue to make you proud.
