Project Baja: Prepping for the Cage

We have been working hard on the car and it has been a ton of work. When you start with a 40 year old car you never know exactly what you are getting. We have been replacing rust sections, we have been finding little patches of bondo and we have basically been making the car solid but we are nearly ready to start actually making it a race car. In January the car heads up to Built... Read More

Project Baja: progress

It has been a busy couple months since our last update and well, the Baja 1000 is this week and 11/11/11 was yesterday, so lets talk about Class 11 for the Baja 1000!

Sean’s farm truck from midweststreetcars / 405 is one of the a best sleepers out there, this beat up old farm truck really puts down the power with it’s nitrous assisted big block, running into the 10′s at the track, and spanking cars on the street!

Riding along with Jimmy Olson

Hop onto the wing and take a spin with Jimmy Olson as he races up Pikes Peak in only 10:44.163! That time is good enough for 2nd in Open wheel and 5th fastest time on the mountain! There is so little too these cars besides a massive powerplant and a seat that it is pretty remarkable to hear that motor at flat out on the various sections of the mountain!  Turn the volume up and... Read More
