What a Weekend at the new ZMax Dragway in Charlotte!

Written by Mark on September 15, 2008 – 11:55 pm -

Being the lucky recipient of 4 day passes to the all new ZMax Dragway in Charlotte, I had to force myself to go.... right!

My seats were in the new John Force Grandstand, which were right on the left lane side of the track, 4 rows deep, right across from the tree! Beside the sweltering heat and constant burning of the eyeballs due to the Nitro Methane, I was like a kid in a candy store! (read more...)

Written by Mark on August 28, 2008 – 12:05 am -

Yesterday, the folks behind the iRacing simulator took the product to market and released it to the public! Having been a part of the early beta testing in 2004 and later, the final beta for the past several months, I can tell you with certainty, nothing comes closer to racing than this simulator!

Head over and test drive the iRacing sim... you wont be disappointed!

How do you make a car racing seat?

Written by Mark on August 16, 2008 – 12:41 am -

Hi can I make a car racing seat like a Sparco or Recaro seat?

Truthfully, unless you have the means to manufacture your own, its cheaper to buy a racing seat already built!

Racing seats come in all shapes, sizes and materials. Depending on the type of racing you intend to do, you will base your choices on that most important factor!

For instance, you wouldn't buy a fiberglass drag racing seat if you intended to go road course racing! Likewise, if you plan on racing oval on larger tracks with higher speeds, you are going to have different needs than a local short track.

Some of the most popular seats are:

Of course, there are many others you can find in our Racing Seats store section.

Here are just a few...

SEIBON Kevlar-Carbon RECARO Racing Seat

$1800 Bucks Set for Racing Tires!

Written by Mark on July 29, 2008 – 12:52 am -

Thats right - $1800!

This past weekend at the Brickyard 400, NASCAR saw hundreds of these tires get shredded to bits on the race track! All at a huge cost to the teams...

43 Race Cars started the race on Sunday in a race that was actually horrible! The resulting 11 cautions saw 43 cars change a total of 1892 tires, not counting those that had to change at other times! Lets put that into an economic perspective...

559 sets of tires, or $1,006,200.00 JUST IN RACING TIRES!
