CRA Officials
Take Engines From Top Two Finishers of Redbud 300 Dyno Testing Reveals Engines found to Perform at Established
Performance Levels
Salem, IN (July 29, 2009) -
Champion Racing Association (CRA) Chief Technical Inspector Eddie Chew
announced Tuesday the outcome of additional testing done on the
engines of Redbud 300 winner Kyle Busch and 2nd place finisher Rick
Turner. Chew took both engines following Monday's race at Anderson
Speedway for additional testing on the dyno.
"The additional testing
of
the engines was simply part of the ongoing process to check the sealed
engines at different points during the year," stated Chew. "This was
the perfect time to check the Hamner (Busch's) and McGunegill
(Turner's) in back to back dyno runs with engines that come straight
from the race track. I am pleased to announce that both engines
performed to the level of the guidelines imposed on the engine
builders by the Sealed Engine Alliance Leaders program.
Chew oversaw the dyno runs with members of both teams present during
the testing. The engines were compared against the original specs of
the respective engines.
CRA has been one of the leaders in developing the use of
cost-containing sealed engines in Super Late Model Racing. What was
once the place for $40,000 engines, Super Late Model races are now
being contested and won with engines that cost only a fraction of what
they used to cost, without losing the high-horsepower performance that
Super Late Model racing has been known for. These cost effective
alternatives have be used to win major races and championships
throughout the country.
