1)  Quick Cam Checker on Engine Stand  We've developed some accessories for the Quick Cam Checker for measuring cams in the motor on a test stand, without a starter motor.  Here are links to a movie to give you an idea how it works.

2) Covid 19  We're running at reduced capacity, with some guys working from home.  The shop is still open with some limitations to handle orders, tech support, and shipping parts and systems.  UPS and the post office are still delivering.  And you can still order software via the internet with no restrictions.  However, some of our suppliers are shut down, so it is delaying some orders.  But things can change day to day.

So, while racing is shut down, it may be a good time to get that new piece of software or equipment, to start prepping for when the tracks finally open.  We'll be here to handle your orders with some limits.  If something is likely to be delayed, we'll let you know.  Let's be smart and lets get this thing behind us.

3) Featured Product - Suspension Analyzer  While you're home bound, it may be a good time to check out our Suspension Analyzer program.  It will let you try out many modifications to your suspension and see the effect on bump steer, anti-squat, roll stiffness and load transfer (handling ratings), and much more.  Off roaders (trucks, ATVs, side-by-sides, etc) can try all sorts of combinations to see the effect on camber, bind, suspension limits, and much more.

For example, the screen below shows how handling and the natural frequency change when the vehicle's 2" of dive is enough to start squeezing the bump springs.
