Edvin Hellstens Chevrolet Camaro Gen6 Är Redo För V8 Thunder Cars 2017 Edvin Hellsten och hans Chevrolet Camaro Gen6 2017-03-31 08:38 CEST Så ser den ut – Edvin Hellstens Chevrolet Camaro Gen6 är redo för V8 Thunder Cars 2017 Med 38 dagar kvar till premiärtävlingen på Mantorp Park, står nu Edvin Hellstens Chevrolet Camaro redo i Nova Racings tävlingsfärger för 2017. För teamets designansvarige, Sofia Johansson, har färgpennorna gått varma i vinter och hon kan nu med stolthet presentera sitt verk. - I år skall vi sticka ut och vara lätta att känna igen för publik och fans. Jag har valt kontrasterande färger kombinerat med olika ytstrukturer för att dynamiskt lyfta fram den muskulösa attityden hos Camaron. Att kunna balansera allt detta med ett stilrent utseende var den roligaste utmaningen och jag tycker att vi lyckats få fram det vi strävat efter, säger Sofia Johansson. Likväl som för publiken är såklart designen viktig för föraren. Edvin tittar nöjt på bilen och tror att publiken lätt skall kunna följa honom i de hårda race som väntar i årets upplaga av mästerskapet V8 Thunder Cars. - Bilen återspeglar vårt team och mig som förare, distinkt och fartfylld. De starka färgerna skapar min identitet för i år och jag hoppas att publiken kommer lära känna mig såväl på banan som i depån, säger Nova Racings förare Edvin Hellsten. Att förvandla skiss till verklighet kräver professionell kunskap, samarbetet med Ackert Reklam gör just detta möjligt. De tillverkar och monterar allt för Nova Racing och har tillsammans utvecklat ett spännande samarbete under de senaste åren. Premiärtävlingen körs på Mantorp Park 6-7 maj och innan dess kommer ett officiellt test för serien hållas på samma bana 18 april. Mer om V8 Thunder Cars V8 Thunder Cars är en racingklass med sina rötter i amerikanska racingtraditioner – det handlar om muskler under huven och tät racing. För att hålla ned driftkostnaderna och skapa sportsligt rättvisa förhållanden används enhetschassin och enhetsmotorer i V8 Thunder Cars. Motorerna, V8:or på 450 hästkrafter, tillverkas av General Motors racingavdelning och chassit är framtaget och utvecklat av Howe Racing Enterprises USA och Performance Automotive Scandinavia. Deltagarna kan välja mellan tre olika karosser, Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro och Dodge Challenger. V8 Thunder Cars har i sin nuvarande form existerat sedan 1987 (fram till 2012 under namnet Camaro Cup) men klassens anor sträcker sig ända tillbaka till 1975 då Superstar Cup, en klass för enbart Chevrolet Camaro-bilar hade premiär. V8 Thunder Cars fick RM-status 2008 och samma år gick man också över till miljöanpassat bränsle från Aspen. Från och med 2013 har V8 Thunder Cars SM-status i banracing.

With thousands of modifieds racing around the country using this frame there are many existing bolt on OEM and aftermarket components made specifically to fit it. Producing a fabricated frame eliminates the shortage and saves time and cost without making existing bolt on parts obsolete. Consider the following benefits: • Common Bumper Mounts Cost - The fabricated frame sells for slightly less than a reworked OEM frame, if you can • Built in Ballast Mounts find one. A surviving stock frame that is not crashed or rusted out must be sandblasted, • Slotted A-frame Mounts stripped, straightened and modified to be ready to install.

  • Chevy Camaro Wikipedia
    Chevy camaro wikipedia The fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaro is a pony car that was produced by American automobile manufacturer General Motors for the through model years. The Camaro was revised in with both exterior and engine changes. The fourth generation of the Camaro was introduced in January , as a model. The new design incorporated sheet moulding compound SMC made from chopped fiberglass and polyester resin for the roof, hatch, doors, and spoiler. The 4-speed 4L60 automatic transmission was optional. All models came with a red Chevrolet Bowtie on the grille. The high performance Z28 model came with rectangular dual exhaust tips to distinguish it from the base models. The Z28 featured the 5. The V8 engine came standard with a 4L60 automatic transmission, although the Borg-Warner T56 six-speed manual transmission was a no cost option. In , the Camaro Z28 was selected as the official pace car for the Indianapolis A special "pace car edition" trim was introduced in the same year and featured "Indy " lettering on black and white body color scheme with multicolored pinstriping and white painted wheels. Several changes were made for the model year. The mechanically controlled and operated 4L60 automatic transmission was replaced with the electronically operated and controlled 4L60E, which was shared with other GM vehicles with V8s, such as the Tahoe. Accordingly, the car's on-board computer was modified from dealing only with the engine as in ECM , to controlling both the engine and transmission on automatic models PCM. The computer in was run via Speed Density system, which measured engine speed RPM and load MAP in kPa to compute airflow requirements and then use that against the VE Volumetric Efficiency table to get the proper readings in order to warn the driver about refuelling.
