Default Circle D & GMHTP

http://www.gmhightechperformance.com...ate/index.html

Thought you guys might like to check out this article by GMHTP. Scott called asking if we could build him a converter for his Emerald Green 94 Formula. He needed something to make the car shine in NA form and well..... We decided on a 245mm 4C Billet series. They were very pleased with the results as he set a new PB ET with a killer 1.63 60' and picked up the tires. I will just let you read the article and not spoil it to much.

Chris

I think it is more of a project update. I think they will do a full write up once they are finished with the build.

Nice to see Circle D get some well deserved national exposure. I bought my 5C over a year ago and it has zero problems. Gotta love 1.42 60-ft on 16" DR's. Keep up the great work Chris.

I think there are related articles to the car build at the right of the page. Then again, maybe that's not what your looking for.
