Well Riccardi Racing has been very busy in the off season getting the Capri ready for the ring in 2013!
As you may know already we no longer will be Racing in NMRA Hot Street. Why you ask? There is no more Hot Street! Riccardi Racing was able to set the Record and win the last Event in Hot Street history! So we will be hold that last record for ever for the class that is no more.
We will be now running on the NMCA side in Comp Cams 10.5 N/A Drag Class which is a completely new class!
We are excited to make the switch over and meet and make new friends. To do this task we had to pull out all the stops to get ready due to the difference in rules. We had to get a few new make overs on the Capri.
First stop we dropped the Capri off the Hell Bent Race Cars where the Zombies took over and went to town on the chassis and installed some new Carbon Fiber doors and Lexan Window's.
Second stop while the car was at Hell Bent was to B&B Performance Machine and Dave Jack Cylinder Heads! Here is where the magic is made to get those High Revs and quick times. Bob and Dave have worked countless hours on some new tricks they had up their sleeves that I can not disclose at this time. We are going to be on the Dyno this weekend 3-9-2013 to see how much more power we make to rocket the Capri hopefully to the winners circle!
While we were at the engine shop the Zombies gave us our car back and from there Dennis Varga the master of paint work went to town on the body gettting it ready for the paint scheme again that everyone voted on to keep! Many hours Dennis spent on the body getting it to his liking and when he felt it was up to par we trailered it over to Coury's Autobody which is where Dennis does his magic on a daily basis. As usual the work Dennis did is flawless.
So as we speak the Capri is in the garage waiting for the motor which is coming home Saturday and getting placed in the engine bay and from there we will get it running and hope to see some awesome numbers in Bradenton on 3-21-2013 ! We hope to continue right where we left off last year as winners! Cross you fingers and cheer for Riccardi Racing. Just goes to show you can still win with a very small budget against the big dollar boys!
Stay Tuned!!!
