    Elusive Lambo Orange Supra Pics

    NHRA tracks yeppers!! no way for the safety crew to open the door without knowing the lock code. Now if it is an electronic pad that can open the door by touching it without code it might be allowed but best to check with tech inspector on that.

    Electric Water Pump?

    nah when the motor is spinning at 5000 rpm the water pump is spinning 1.5 times that much. No electric motor will ever compare to that. The advantage IF it is designed right would be at idle and stop and go where the electric pump CAN flow well past any of the belt driven pumps but install a...
