AMS, SRP, Manley, Uehara and Reese Tuning help Nils…

taken from AMS press release:

As many of you know Our beloved Nils has been down on his luck and been forced to sell his car. His life has been flipped on its ear and being the responsible adult and father that he is our friend Nils has put his car up for sale(Here)

You see Nils biggest problem is that he needs a motor. With a spun bearing Nils needs a rebuild. With personal expenses being what they are this simply isn’t possible for him. This is where the EVO M community came in and CAME IN BIG!!!!

Everyone here at AMS loves Nils, he contributes to this community and never really asks for anything back. His white CT9A with orange wheels has become synonymous with road racing in our little world. Thanks to AMS, JE pistons, Manley Rods, Uehara Motorworks and Reese tuning and YOU. Nils is going to keep his car and continue to race.

Here is what the parties involved are contributing:

You see after all these free parts and donated labor hours Nils still has to come up with about $1400 out of pocket. Every little bit helps so if you can spare some money in these tough times please do so. Please paypal your donation to paypal@amsperformance.com if you want to be recognized please let me know and I will add your name to our list of contributing parties along with a running tally of money received.

Thank you again to EVERYONE involved and I cannot say I have ever been prouder to be a part of car community like EVO M!

Car finally dynoed…

James Reese of Reese Tuning, the master EVO tuner from San Diego has been a good friend & helping sort out the car lately.

He just strapped her on his Mustang Dyno & she layed down 414awhp at 26psi on e85. James tuned the car safely for road course action. His dyno is a ‘heartbreaker dyno’ & reads pretty low, Reese estimates around 495awhp on a dynojet.

Stepping up with AMS performance…

Im proud to announce that AMS Performance is now a sponsor of my whip..!

I’m a very picky guy, I can only go for the best, no time for sponsors if they will slow me down. Let me tell you, no other company in the US pushes the Evolution in road racing parts development like AMS Performance does. It was a no-brainer for me.

While Martin & Ryan are focusing on the new EvoX chassis, I will be
testing & showcasing AMS Evo7-9 performance parts specifically geared
towards the road course. The harshest environment you can imagine. So
you know that when you purchase from AMS, not only is it a well
engineered & made part, but it will last & take the all the crap you
throw at it.

We are specifically focusing on taking weight out of the car,
developing a smoother powerband & getting more power out of the 4G63.
AMS has already thrown some really great ideas & solutions to me, so I
am very excited to upgrade & test.

I want to thank Martin & the guys at AMS for helping me gain more speed
in 09′. Im proud to be onboard with the company, they have had alot of
success already & we think we can keep that success going forward.

Some Miller Track Pictures

Found these while cruising the net….. the track was really nice, wish I was in better shape for that event. I heard Vesko ran better times than any of us in street class on a stock’ish evo, I guess we didnt figure the track out that well…. or maybe the track was alot slower than when he was out there.

I remember after the event. My starter died, and robi decided to buy a CRX chassis there. There was no more room on the trailer back home, robi wanted to throw my car on there too but I had a gut feeling my car would drop off, ha ha. My buddy Jeremy & I decided to drive her back all the way home, with no starter.

It was interesting, we never shut her off. The motor was running all the way home, through traffic, gas stops & minor electrical glitches at 70mph +.. & 400 miles…ha ha… that was the most fun we had all weekend, driving home… I think we made it back in good time.
