#repost On June 23, 1909, a Ford Model T was the first to cross the finish line in an ocean-to-ocean race from New York City to Seattle. Always looking to promote Ford Motor Company, Henry Ford claimed the race would “give Americans an opportunity to appreciate the vast possibilities of the motor car.” The competition forced racers and their vehicles to endure axle-deep mud, quicksand, navigational issues, fires, heavy snow and frequent repairs. The Model T’s smaller frame made it an underdog in the eyes of many, but its lighter weight actually proved advantageous, as it had a stronger weight/power ratio. Additionally, Ford had dealers across the country, which allowed the racing Model T to receive repairs more quickly than its competitors. The publicity from this race would help make the Model T, less than a year into production at the time, one of the dominant cars of the early 1900s. Bonus: the winning Model T (pictured) was actually disqualified five months later after officials learned its engine was replaced during the race. Thankfully for Ford, news of the Model T’s supremacy in the race already spread, subsiding any major backlash toward the car. #thisdayinautoheritage _________________________ #nextgendragracers #doorslammers2 #mountainmotormafia #racing #history #henryford #share https://www.instagram.com/p/CBx3pzDnDbG/?igshid=j0d2qpbcw22f

#repost Rob Hightower - Blast From The Past Drag Racing 👉 Gapp & Roush debuted their famous Tijuana Taxi four-door Maverick during 1974, at which point the Pinto wasn’t the team’s featured vehicle moving forward. However, it did continue to race through the 1975 season and was then sold in Spring 1976 to privateer Tim Goodner of Minnesota. In an interview with Pro Stock photographer Dan Williams, Goodner explained that he purchased the Pinto for $6,000 sans engine, and Gapp himself gave him one particularly sage tip: “Don’t mess with the suspension.” Goodner proceeded to race the car as “Genesis” in C/G and C/MP with a Boss 302, primarily in Division 5. He eventually concluded that just qualifying for the Pro Stock field was a better payout than winning a Sportsman class outright, so Goodner returned the Pinto to the Pro Stock ranks. In 1978, he updated the car to appear as a ’76, fitting a new grille and bigger bumpers (among other things) to comply with NHRA rules that mandated Pro Stock cars to appear within five years of manufacture. Goodner stopped racing after the 1982 season, as the debut of 500-inch engines effectively ended the competitiveness of his Genesis operation. His best run in the 1981/1982 era is said to have been an 8.89 e.t. carinmylife.com _______________________ #gapproush #legends #ford #nhra #prostock #50years #dragracing #nextgendragracers #mountainmotormafia #doorslammers2 #vintage #picoftheday #instagood https://www.instagram.com/p/B9XgbwjniVE/?igshid=1r0l7p4dove17

#Repost @mmm_dra with @make_repost ・・・ We’d like to welcome our newest series sponsor, ATI Racing: for more than 55 years, ATI has been producing quality, state-of-the-art racing products! When Jim Beattie, President of ATI Performance Products, Inc. first attacked the field of automatic transmissions, Funny Cars were blistering down the track at six seconds and dragsters were still trying to break 200 m.p.h. Today, one can’t help but notice the dominance of ATI decals at the track. Automatic Transmissions, Inc., which Jim built from a modest general rebuilding shop in Silver Spring, MD, is still a family-owned and operated business with JC Beattie, Jr. heading operations for the company. Other family members help in various capacities within the business. It’s obvious the entire family has a passion for the racing industry. From the age of three JC, along with his dad, could be found racing anything with wheels. Now, he sits behind the wheel of a 2009 Drag Pak Stocker or 2012 Super Stock COPO Camaro equipped with ATI parts to give ATI customers true track-tested and proven products. Over the years, ATI has earned a reputation for its cutting edge technology, attention to detail, and rigorous testing under race conditions. By staying true to these basic principles, ATI has built a loyal customer base; many of whom still use parts purchased from ATI in the 1980’s. Today, ATI manufactures a multitude of high performance parts including competition transmissions such as the incomparable Superglide®, Treemaster Converters®, Super Dampers®, Compu-Flow® Valve Bodies, Flexplates and Adapter Kits as well as a wide variety of performance enhancing internal transmission components. Innovative designs, partnered with a commitment to racing, allows the company to maintain a prominent position on the cutting edge of high performance component design and manufacturing. ATI proudly holds over a dozen U.S. Government patents, with others pending. Located just outside of Baltimore, Maryland ATI’s manufacturing facility houses one of the most advanced machine shops in the industry; all machinery operations take place in-house so that total quality control can be maintained. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7026jzH6wy/?igshid=qkz1kzsfe561
