why should you buy a Vortech Air to Air kit

Slim you bracket race dont you??, don't you have to change your time depending on changing track conditions through out the day, all of us did, the car ran the best time when the track was cold, after that we all had traction issues, ask any on that watched me launch the car devistated the tires just like Jerry B first pass, a lot of people had issues with the track. I am going to Gainsville to night with MT lets see what happens then and I will be there Friday as well, thanks for your interest.

Thanks for the reply. Good luck!
 
This is a question in reference to Chris.K's car. What is a Reinhart Edition Marauder? Is this just a term for a Marauder with a Vortech? Or is it a special package, how many are out there? Thanks, just curious.
 
Well he bought the car from Kelley, and this was the first air to air kit sold, this car has every thing, gears trans drive shaft sway bars basicly a stage 1/2/3
 
Lets remember that RoadPig #1 has now had the Reinhart Edition Air to Water system on her for a bit over 5k miles ... this was put on her at the 60,000 MILE MARK alongside SecondMDRebel's CrownRauder...fit and finish are still outstanding, response time is just as fresh as the day I drove her back to South Carolina. I take great pride in roasting and toasting the stoplight street racers as well as my fellow compadre in Law Enforcement...I see some subtle changes and upgrades Dennis has done with his kits and I hope to do them myself soon ( the FP being one ). Even though this is about his Air to Air setup, I see his quality, care, and forthought in the kit pictured...no loss between the two setups. I have lost my train of thought so I will just say THANK YOU DENNIS...see ya soon Sheila...Tigger, quit eating my lunch !


:cool:

Dennis built that car for me and it was done right. I ran a 12.3 in it the first weekend out. It was a great car that I wish I hadn't sold, but felt the need to do at the time.

I have a new SRT-10 that is not as fast as my old 03.:burnout:
 
Is that the same car that is listed as running a 12.130@124.00 in the timeslip database?

Wow, I wonder what the time could of been if he held into it. :confused:
 
Here are some new pictures and time slips, the car runs great with 58 K on the clock

just remember with the larger blowers comes a bit of loss in boost response....if youre keeping a 400hp stoplight street car, youre beter off with an s-trim....i remember awhile back on the lightning forum a vendor did a comparo test on the same truck. an s-trim vs a novi 2000. same boost level...the s-trim was faster every pass....keep in mind however that this was a street truck with relatively low hp levels below 500hp.

Some wisecracker at Gainesville during MVIV race day said "Pete you should run against Dennis, Blue vs. Blue would be SO cool!" I declined, didn't want Dennis to have to stop and wait for me at the finish line. I am far too polite to make him do that. :) I can vouch for the fact that it runs quite well as he says. :D He would have :flamer: me. Those big tubes were wide wnough for me to have stuck my arms into up to my shoulder, and I gots big arms.

I tried to convince DR that he needs a "beta tester" for the Vortech air-to-air kit in the Orlando area, but I don't think he is going for it. :(
