Road Race Preps car for Silver State Challenge

Road Race Motorsports wanted to share the Silver State Challenge car we just prepared for Driver Elia Popov. Elia bought this fully caged camera car from producers in Hollywood who used it to film chase scenes from such movies as “Duke of Hazzard”, “Borne Identity”, “Mission Impossible” and many more. Road Race converted the car to a safe and fast Silver State entry that will run in the 150 mph class this event. Changes included, new coilover suspension, race brakes, lightly tuned engine and a lot of other miscellaneous jobs.  The car does not look like much, but it is a one time event car since we will be building Elia Popov and 200 mph entrant for the next event. It will be a totally different car. We wish Elia the best. Check out the event coverage. The website  http://www.silverstateclassic.com/

YOUTUBE VID- Find of the Week. RRM SX4 Turbo Test Drive

Here is one of my favorite videos. This vid is taken from a press day by a KBB journalist a couple years back. He flogged our turboed and tuned SX4. Needless to say, he loved it. I think it represents, well, what we do even with something as underrated as a Suzuki SX4. Enjoy it. FYI turbo for the 2010-2012 SX4 engine is currently underway. Keep checking back with us.

ROAD/RACE- Latest News

  • Parking at Walmart

It has been a long while since we just gave an update on what is happening at Road Race. Things are moving at a fast pace here. Where to start. Since SEMA we have been non stop building an Ultra 4 Race Jeep for King of the Hammers. It was the shortest of time frames to build but we managed to complete it and it made it out to KOH. In the “Every Man Challenge”, the car was leading the Race Overall until an alternator gave out and the battery would no longer let the engine run. All and all what impressed everyone out there was the high level of workmanship that went into the car, even though there was impossibly short time for us to get it built.
In the meantime, FIAT 500 is a car that we have truly mastered with regards to performance. We have new products for the 500 so please check out our website. There are more to come too. Every one of our customers are raving about our products and we love the way that makes us feel.
From here we have not forgotten the Suzuki guys. Our turbo kit for the 2010+ model Sx4s is just about done. We have someone who stepped up for one and that will allow us to finish it up. Suzuki guys should get ready. It is an exciting time at ROAD/RACE. Stay tuned!
