Default NASCAR comes to G-Force!!!!

Davidson Electric brought their asphalt late model car to our chassis dyno today to test out some new parts. The results were extremely impressive considering this is only a 358" engine with 9:1 compression and a 390 CFM carburetor.

That is far from a NEXTEL Cup car.

I love the way they sound on the dyno from redline to idle. There is nothing that idles down quicker with the lightweight clutch/flywheel, almost sounds like they are on an engine dyno.
