\"\"<\/a>RRE was out at RTA dynoing cars and supporting Joon Maeng but that doesn’t mean we didn’t have time to dust a couple Subies in our Ralliart!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is JOON’S Take:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here we are at the\u00a0double header\u00a0\u00a0MotoIQ Pacific Tuner Car Challenge in the Lucas Oil Nitto Tire S13.5.\u00a0There were over 1000 fans that joined us for the\u00a0Liberty Grand Prix and firework show.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With the help of Lod, Art, Sam, Mike, Ruben, Matt, Robert at Road Race Engineering\u00a0 we were able to make improvements on the vehicle by fabricating a front splitter and air ducting. With two races during the weekend our key was to keep the car reliable. With the scorching heat\u00a0that reached over 140 Degrees on the track surface temp we added on a cool water sprayer to keep the engine temps out of the red zone..\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is our pit area. Lod made a few adjustments on the Megan Suspension to see what was best for this particular layout. Lucas Oil Products was filled up and the car was ready for battle!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It was sad to see some of the competitors\u00a0facing car problems and even a fire from the high temps the weekend brought us. Our power steering pump wasn\u2019t\u00a0happy from the heat and seized\u2026 Thanks to Lod and Sam\u00a0we were able to get one in time for the next race on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I was amazed how well the\u00a0new\u00a0Megan Racing brake kit performed during the weekend especially when reaching speeds\u00a0over 100+ MPH.\u00a0It was awesome being\u00a0able to\u00a0brake super late throughout the track!\u00a0\u00a0Here is where we are standing as far as points in the Moto IQ Pacific Tuner Car Challenge\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

Although we placed 1st for both races I wish the other competitors didn\u2019t run into car problems so we could have pushed each other even harder.<\/p>\n

Thank you so much Lucas Oil, Nitto Tire, Road Race Engineering, S-Empire,\u00a0Bergenholtz Racing, LS Auto,\u00a0Sam\u2019s Auto Land,\u00a0Megan Racing, ACT, \u00a0SEIBON, Apexi, Enjuku Racing, Evolution Racewerks, AIT Racing for your support and making it possible for us\u00a0to make it out to the race!<\/p>\n

I’d like to thank JOON for taking me to Carl’s Jr. for my first time and putting me up in his hotel room. \u00a0I hope I did not snore too loud!!<\/p>\n
