Clap your hands and praise high, the track gods have spoken and someone decided to make a drag event in LA! May 29-30th, yes Sunday and Monday, the Outlaw FWD Invasion will be held at Autoclub Dragway. The Drag strip located right off of the 15 in Fontana, Ca, which is the heart of California. This is the 1st event of what we hope will become something annual. Exospeed Racing products has brought on board Skunk2 to be an associate sponsor to present this inaugural LA Outlaw FWD Invasion Race as well, and with their collaborating efforts we are sure that the event will be memorable.

The LA Outlaw FWD Invasion is an open invitation to the racing community across the United States to come enjoy a great track with a chance to set new records, compete in a different environment, and possibly take home a chunk of the $30k in cash and product prizes to be distributed. The racing will be competitive but offer a chance to touch what this event is more about, the chance to build more comradery in the sport today. The race will feature the Exospeed Racing Hospitality booth to allow fellow racers, manufacturers reps, media, friends and old school racers to interact and network amongst each other. This is the gem of the event if you ask us, because we have the chance to meet those around us or get to catch up with those who we possibly chat with online or have not seen in years. This is a new edge to the old school media tent, an I am sure that the “back when” stories will be going as soon as you all step foot on the premises.

There will be 2 classes at the LA Outlaw FWD Invasion:

• Turbo Outlaw Street FWD

If you saw this silver ‘vert roll up at the stoplight you might think to yourself, “self, why would someone bother modding a ‘vert?” and then you’d probably think “why is this ‘vette next to me quietly pounding the ground” and then as it pulls off you hear it sit on the converter and the turbos spool and you think to yourself “ZOMG MUZT HAZ CAR!”

For a car that is comparably quiet and looks completely freaking stock this is the baddest car i’ve ever seen and it STILL gets 27mpg on the highway… It’s got a twin turbo kit and built everything… Friggin’ thing makes 861 on pump gas… to me that is effin’ baaaaaddd.

And if any of you out there have a few dollars burning a hole in your pocket you can own this rocketship…Buy it on eBay!

If you’re in the market for a vette, or anything sporty for that matter, you seriously need to look at this thing… You’re missing out if you dont.

And just as a side story, while following the owner to take these photos he would gas it every now and then just long enough to spool the turbos and lay down about 10ft of rubber. This meant I had to go from cruising in 5th to winding out 2nd, powershifting 3rd and finally catching back up about 10 seconds later. Apparently, 17lbs in the SS/TC isn’t enough to keep up with the ‘vette! Now i know how StunnaBEN is gonna feel after he sees my tail lights when we bump off

Front shot of the block looks cool. Billet AC/PS delete, Billet thermostat housing, bugged up radiator!

I still have not changed out that valve cover to the black one, and I need to do something about that short ass intake tube!

1. Stunna 3.0: From Greasy to Classy

We LOVE spectator videos!!!!!! Shot outs to the guys at BMC race!

All week long the forums stayed lit-up with the “who is gonna win” talk about the grudge match between Miller and Tony. People just knew up and down who was gonna take it. What we did not know is that there was gonna be a fucking flood at the event. Shot outs to Cliff for trying, and we here at Greasy hate that it rained our for you. I remember with the Nyce1s race, people were quick to judge and talk about bad planning instead of the fact that weather happens. Be glad you didn’t get that. But then again, we all know how these folks can be.

Biggest shot outs to my man Tim. Dude kept his celly on hot, and probably used more data stream in a day that most of us will use in months with his generous life feed of the event. Instead of having a forum full of judgments, like we did in previous I JUST NAMED RACES, he let us see things for ourselves. I stayed on the ustream chat that Tim aka IHAVETURBOS had all day long watching and just as eager as everyone else was to see this go down. At peak, 7pm, there were over 440 people in the stream watching, and over 60 actively commenting. That chat was full of a bunch of fucktardary, which I gladly took place in, but it was a clear sign that the 2011 season will be a strong season with proper support. This shit basically rained out, yet there was a line longer than 70% of last years races according to a few unnamed racers. Think about if it would’ve been dry. What kind of jump off this would’ve been.

Tony and Miller both showed me what their prep weekend was like too! I asked them a few questions, and never posted this but figured I would share to show you all what really went into this week prepping for this race.

Tony1:

GB: Yo Tony, has anything been really trying this week? You having a hard time with the setup for the race?
T1: (Jan 27th email) Finish the 25.5 cage, done.  Get cage certified, done.  Assemble trans, waiting on gears, be here TOMORROW!  Need to put the new turbo on, which I STILL don’t have…  Need to re-tune with the new turbo which I don’t have.  All good though, we’ll make it happen, I’m not worried about it. Yet…

GB: How many passes will it take for you to get used to the new cage?
T1: I don’t think it will take me any time to get used to the cage, it’s a bunch of bars but none that really affect me.  Only real difference is slightly different seat/shifter/wheel position, but I think I’ll adapt quickly.

Miller:

GB: Yo Miller, what the hell are you up to? Are you gonna be ready for this race or not?
Miller: (Jan 26 text) Damn right I am. It will be a long night at the Shop. The goal is to lock myself in with some Rockstars and pizza, throw on some Jay-z  and get in the zone. This motor will be ready to run tonight!

Miller: 3:56am on Tuesday and after finding a ton of issues she is alive and ready!
GB: FUCK YEA!!!

Its always good to see the behind-the-scenes of what racers do, and these guys both worked their asses off this week. From seeing the snow storm that Miller went through to seeing all of the new additions to Tony’s Integra. This all got me on the edge of my seat to start keeping up with the season and anxious to see how the 25.5 cage works out for him, The 67mm car Miller spoke of, and who else is making noise in 2011.

What are you doing this year? Hit us up and let us know. We are always looking for more drag coverage. Info@Greasyblocks.com

NRG Tech Racing

2010 for NRG Tech could go along the lines of “we won it all” and list everything that happened this past year. We could also just break that shit down and instead call it “The official 2010 Winning x Drama X Bullshit x Recap” and blow up some servers! This year seriously was a memorable year, so lets recap and also discuss the news of the new Chris Miller Racing for 2011!

Chris Miller Racing.. WTF?
Wait… Chris Miller Racing? We will get to that topic later on. But 1st, who made some real big noise this year? It sure as hell was not those sitting around and twiddling their thumbs.

• Javier’s HondaDay.com events
• Antoine Dodson
• Eibach set some new trends as always (shameless plug!)
• Canibeat boys spread their name like gonorrhea
• I stayed on Joey’s Chronicles like it was my home page
• Dan took CCW Wheels to the moon
• Lebron had fools mad with THE DECISION

But if you were like the majority of the east coast, or domestic owners out there, you were drag racing. The strip was on fire this year. Many records were broken, people came back to the drag strip, and All Motor cars reigned terror. No one quite made noise like NRG Tech Racing though. Some for good reasons, but most will say because Chris Miller is the biggest asshole in existence. “FUCK MILLER” comments and emails flooded GreasyBlocks during the buildup to the Fall Nationals after the post where Miller spoke out on the Borg Warner Outlaw Shootout. Miller seemed to have his own drama going on at that time and it just seemed to blow shit even more out of proportion. I can easily tell you that there were just as many “MILLER IS THE MAN” comments coming through. The world cup finals was coming up, and coming off of a win and some surprising talk from everyone in attendance about Miller and his difference for those in attendance of the Outlaw race, I had to go and see what was going on for myself. I wanted to check out the build up to a race with NRG Tech. And not just a build up, but what was panning out to be their most important race of the season, The World Cup Finals at MIR.

Jet Hop to NRG Tech
Now, the Friday before WCF, I touch down in NY to meet Pepsi at the Airport. We drive to Long Island to meet up at the shop and I instantly can tell it is going to be a long night. Cars are still being prepped, there Paul Major’s car is still on the Dyno, Mapps’ car has no turbo or trans on it, and Van Natten seems to have some wheel & slick issues. It was bound to be some time before we loaded up and made the drive to MIR. Everyone is on no sleep, and on top of that Miller and Tom are still tuning and working on 3 customer cars.

In-Car

World Cup Victory
But this trip was not just racing. Hell even an eventful Friday night out in beautiful downtown Baltimore, which left me very much left me blacked-out-daze. I came back into my light with a  wake up text to PJ, Ehren, and myself alerting us of a 8.3 pass. We seemed to be stranded at the time by a dead battery in the truck, while I was puking everywhere and suffering from a ruthless hangover! But that was just part of a weekend that ended with some drama on the track due to tripped beams, and a 15 year mountain climbed. Yes, the 1st Import ever in 15 years to win a class at the notorious Import vs Domestic event, otherwise known as the World Cup Finals.  I mean, looking back we could not have had a better weekend. Millers birthday festivities Friday night seemed to be off to a killer start as soon as we stepped foot in the alcohol filled limo, the car seemed to hold together for the event, and PJ even made it back to Long Island to work by 7am the next morning!

See us in action
If you were to dive deeper into this though, its not just a party. I got to see a man who was hands on all weekend. As I watched I saw the whole NRG Tech crew worked like mad men to make sure that everyone was ready to go for their rounds. Pepsi and Miller seemed to be selfless in their efforts for others to get out there and reach their goals as well. I am watching these guys put in work on Van Nattens car, I am seeing Paul and Ehren do WORK out there when the cars are back in the pits, when the car is on the line, any last minute changes that need to be made, but as people roll in I am seeing everyone getting talked to and helped with any questions they may have. The asshole might be an asshole, but you couldn’t find a more helpful guy at the track that day and from what I read from numerous interviews, it is the same at any race you go to.

My Observation
This may do little for some, but to be able to share with you guys a behind the scenes view of the race from an outsider. Over the summer during a rain out at one of the Nyce1s events, Miller and I had our own disagreement/battle and we had it out. But after reading over things, articles, hanging out, etc, there are not many people I would want to be at the track with come race time. One of the best at track tuners that I have seen. Between this guy and Tony Palo, Sport Compact Racing has some extreme talent at the track.

What to look forward to?
As the years progress, more people are following the sport and we are attracting the attention comparable to what it once had. In a perfect world, we can look forward and say we will double our attendance in 2011 to the drag racing events but this is no pipe dream. Any attendance we get will have to be from the footwork we get, through publication, records broke, top notch race car fabrication, and most importantly what sells in racing. Chris Miller seemed to sell pretty well in 2010 packing out venues and grudge matches all over the east. North Carolina came out especially strong to see Howard from RLZ throw it down against Miller. People left saying boy put on a show on that unsafe “dirt track” in Fayetteville, laying down a solid 8.6 pass ON THE BRAKES, as he put it. No matter what was happening other places, people came to see the race. It was raining like a bitch at the beginning of the day too. Shot outs to Nyce1s for even giving the Carolinians a race, and something to look forward to in 2011.

What does Miller have to say?
I got together with Miller recently, along with the NRG Tech family, to ask about a few things and put some light on the year from his eyes. I asked him a few questions and because I wanted to know how he felt about the year now in the rear view!

GB: We had a wild year, Chris! I don’t even want to waste Time, tell me about the top 5 race moments for you this year.
CM: My top 5 moments of my season is gonna be tough. I racked up 12 event wins and the NSCRA championship. It was a really long season and a lot of shit happened. I have to say My top 5 is gonna be tough but I’ll give it a whirl.

5. I would have to say number 5 would be winning the outlaw shootout at etown again. 2 years in a row is a great accomplishment and I am proud to defend the title again this year. It was yet again another great event and can’t wait to do it again next season.

4. Number 4 would have to be Kevin Van Nattens first 8 second pass. It was a long season for us with Kevin’s car and to be able to be at the line and watch him be the first car in sfwd trim to break into the 8’s was awesome. He busted his ass and is as dedicated as it comes to this sport. Definitely one of my top moments for sure.

3. Rob Mapps winning the NSCRA championship. Rob and his dad Ralph are what this sport needs more of. People who eat, breathe, sleep, and dream of racing. These guys use a damn minivan and haul tow dolly to get to races all over the country and nothing stops them from making it. They have had numerous all nighters at the shop and countless hours besides that to get the car to events. If it wasn’t for bad luck rob wouldn’t have any. We never got to run the car at its full potential or even really close to it cause we were constantly plagued with issues. I am super proud to be able to have Rob racing with me and it was awesome being there to see him achieve what he set out in the beginning of the season to do, win the NSCRA championship.

2. This one would have been number one if my season didn’t end the way it did but being at the line when Jose “pepsi” Bello went 10.1 was awesome. The adrenaline high was insane. I have never jumped so high in my life and I knew the car had it in it. I had the data compiled and knew if we could put together a good clean pass a .1 or even a 10.0 was possible. Well we got the .1 now and we have set our goals to be the first in the 9’s. This fat fucker deserves so much credit. His pursuit of perfection shows in his engines he builds to the way he drives. Always looking to better himself. My favorite engine builder I love you like a fat kid loves the san Guiseppes truck.

1. Number Fucking 1! World Fucking Cup, Need I say more? This race has haunted my dreams for years. I had a few goals this year and my number 1 was to come back to MIR and win wild street. I was tired of hearing it about how I threw it away in 09 and the issues I had previous years. I was tired of hearing how no import has ever won and was never going to win. Well here we are in Jan and I still can’t believe that I proudly earned the wild street cup.

I know that you are probably saying that 2,3 and 4 aren’t my races or personal highlights but they are. Watching my guys set records and win races means just as much to me as it does winning my own personal races and setting my own records. I know these guys feel the same. I have so many memories that extend past the ones written above but I have to keep it somewhat short. (GB:Miller didn’t have to keep it short, he just ran out of typing room on the blackberry!)

Chris Miller Racing 2011
Chris Miller Racing! You guys didn’t think I forgot did you? Chris Miller Racing is the new business in 2011 and is takes sole focus on the racing aspect of Chris Miller. It is a separate business from NRG Tech, but no worries, Chris and NRG Tech Racing have not split. This is just to take focus on racing, not daily operations. I heard wind of a new car in the works as well, but this project could be just words in the wind with no real substance. Keep your eyes peeled to NRGTechRacing.com and Greasy Blocks for more information on this, as well as an official press release with details on Chris Miller Racing!

GB: You did not do this alone by far. Who would you like to thank, man?
CM: This is gonna be long but I ask that you all read every damn word I write. These companies all deserve to be recognized for being apart of my team.

AEM
First off I would have to thank AEM electronics, these guys are amazing and have an amazing product to be proud of. A lot of people don’t want to believe it but the product is there and its real. It took me a little bit to adapt to it and once I did I fell in love. Devin, Kirk and the rest of the staff at AEM are all great people and are always looking to take their product one step further.

The Drive Shaft Shop
Next has to be Drive Shaft Shop. Frank, Lee , Tad and the crew over at DSS are the best in the axle/drive shaft business hands down. If you aren’t dealing with DSS you aren’t dealing with the right people. These guys are what we use in all of projects in the shop and on the track. Great product and even better customer service. It must be that southern love rubbing off on the NY guys that make em so nice.

Precision Turbo
Really need I say anymore. There is no other company dedicated and as knowledgeable about performance turbo chargers then precision. These guys and girls are beads. They do what they say they are gonna do and then some. It is just insane what they can do and how dedicated they are to be #1 in everything they are involved in. A huge thank you to Dan Bar log, Harry Hruska, Pete Barton, Justin “cheeks”, Joe, Deanna, Genuine, Scott, Aaron, Wee and anyone I forgot I am really sorry but you guys are all awesome and are always there. Thanks for being who you are.

EFI Wizard
Bad ass injectors. Plain and simple. A huge thanks for helping me out when I needed it most.

Web Camshafts
God damn. You guys rock. Debbie, Laurie and the rest of the crew over there are among the nicest people in this whole damn industry to deal with. That Alex “sheep ey” guy is alright too. A quick story about these people, not only do they constantly keep surprising me with their product but on my birthday while on the return road at MIR during world cup I see my phone is ringing and its web cams, I answer and to my shock it is the web cam girls singing me happy birthday. Vaccine awesome. Made my day and goes to show they are just down right awesome people.

Avid Racing
Franklin and the rest of those crazy maple syrup drinking Canadians can make a solid engine mount that won’t fail.

NRG Tech Racing
This is my home. My team and my family is what this is. This is what started it all and will continue to be the backbone to my racing. I have to thank everyone in the shop Tom Liner and Bill Draghi. These two suckers can make anything a reality. They can fabricate anything I can dream up and sometimes make my visions better then I ever thought. Pepsi, Gio, Greg, Paul Pero, Ehren, Mapps, Ralph and anyone who I forgot I still love you. Thanks for the late nights, the sleepless nights and days and for all the help.

How can we all help?
The thank yous from Chris were long, but with a supporting cast like the one he has listed really came through for the team this year. Now look around the industry, or even at your local races and look for the logos, banners, etc. and see who is supporting the racers next to you and the event you are at? Who gives contingency to the racers for being noticed and winning? Who talks about the races and profiles the drivers on their sites and in their publications? Support these companies, so that they can support our racing scene. The amount of support shown to the guys competing is that extra mile. They see the next race. You have guys all over the nation that are breaking records and drawing crowds. Show them the love and follow them. They are the foot soldiers for this new-age racing movement in 2011 and beyond.

GB: As always, you have to end with a closing statement. But instead of just closing off, I have one last question for you that I want to end on. I want to think about your entire year of 2010, from beginning to end. What did you come out of this year learning, knowing now, and/or regretting?
CM: I will end it all by saying thank you once again to all the great companies I have in my corner, AEM electronics, Drive Shaft Shop, EFI Wizard fuel injectors, Precision turbo, Web camshafts, Avid engine mounts, Konstant Design and of course my shop NRG tech. Without all of you what we achieved as a team in 2010 wouldn’t be possible. You are all an integral part of my team and hope to continue forging a relationship with everyone of you in the future.

Ben, you asked me to make a statement about what I took from this year knowing now, learning and regretting. Well that is pretty crazy cause I learned a lot and regret none. I learned a lot about life and how you can’t regret anything. Shit happens for a reason, life happens. That’s how I look at life these days enjoy life, live life without regret and look forward to doing it all over again when I open my eyes the next day.

Did I learn?
This year, I too learned a great deal about life and how to tackle the situations we come across daily. One thing I do know, is that I enjoyed every second of being a part of this industry in 2010, and look to be more involved with 2011 with my new business ventures across the nation.

I guess this story may prove that not everything is as it seems. Or, if I am wrong, it at least proves that I am a prime example of why you should go drink with these guys! See you guys at the track and on the forums in 2011!

1. Tony1 vs. Miller 2011 rain out

I have rubber all in my Luie Luggage, trackbite on my gear, and a vp racing through my veins, along with TONS of coverage from arguably one of the most exciting races I have ever been a part of! American muscle never sounded so pleasing, and Imports have never been so quick. If you missed out, you missed a hell of a time!

You know, normally I blast these blogs out with some input, but this time I wont sit around and babble. Hands down, my new favorite event of the year. This had something for everyone, and you can see that in the upcoming gallery. And if this coverage looks shy, that’s because there is another part coming. There were so many usable pics, that I had to split it up into sections. So check it out, and respond with your thoughts on the coverage!

You should know by now that you will see drama on Greasy. Check out this Supra.

That John Force burnout was pretty wild looking, until…

…he hit the wall. I am not sure if he had a break, a malfunction, or just was a bad driver with a big burnout. My homie Julian from Nyce1s knows him and says we can rule out number 3. In any case, I am sure it will just buff out!

Check out more in the gallery!

Make sure to check in for Part 2 of this coverage next week!

2. 2010 World Cup Finals: Jenny Wyatt
3. One bad ‘vert…

Jenny Wyatt , a master behind the lens, shot these photos over the weekend at The 15th annual World Cup Finals @MIR. The event was nothing short of memorable, and she captured the essence of this event with her Nikon with a smile on her face the entire time while doing so.

I met Jenny over the weekend while photographing the World Cup Finals. Her photos that were posted of different events over the past 2 years have been on my screen numerous times, and people talk extremely well about her work. Meeting up was total accident while walking by Coffey’s Em1, and what a good meeting it was. As I payed attention back at the tree, she walked around and got different views of the race, while keeping her smile on. I knew that enjoyment was heavy, so we had to talk to her and get her story. Check it out!

1. To many people, including the MIR staff, this race is one of largest races of the year. Is this event your favorite?

Absolutely! Nothing compares to World Cup Finals. The mix of imports and domestics running in the same classes really sets it apart from everything else. The energy at the race is indescribable, people are there to break records or blow up trying to. The amount of hard work that both MIR and all of the racers to prepare for the event really shows — I think that is what ends up setting the stage for an incredible weekend. From a photography standpoint you really get it all with the mix of classes and cars and also the opportunity to take day and night shots. It seems like there is always something exciting happening to get dramatic shots of, unfortunately I always end up watching and forgetting to take pictures! It seems like WCF gets bigger and better every year, I am already looking forward to next year!

2. Which racers had you on your toes this weekend? Were you pulling for anyone?

Randy Owens in All Motor Street – I’ve seen firsthand all of his hard work to get his car where it is. He is going fast with something different, which is always respectable. I can’t count how many times he has been on Tempest’s dyno because he tweaked this or changed that, he is going fast because he has put in the time to find what works.

Adam Drake in Wild Street – Adam, his wife Vicky and daughter Nicole came all the way down to Maryland from Canada for World Cup Finals for the third year in a row. When he went a 9.27 (bettering his previous time by 7 tenths) I totally freaked out!

David Wolfe in Radial – After hearing about his 6.5 pass in testing @ MIR on Friday I couldn’t wait to see this car in person.

Chris Miller in Wild Street – whether you love him or love to hate him his car is exciting to watch, I don’t know how he does it but he keeps going faster before anyone has a chance to catch up.

True Street – The whole class is exciting, it’s huge and keeps getting faster. I’m anxious to see if an 8 second pass will happen in 2010 – I was hoping to see it last weekend!

3. What are your favorite 5 photos of the weekend, and why?

– This is my favorite type of drag race picture and it totally sums up the weekend – it’s an Import vs. a Domestic with the (huge) crowd in the background, what’s not to love?

– This one just came out really well… I think I take a mean burn-out picture!

– Again, another good burn-out shot, this time at night. I rarely get to shoot at night so I was super excited with how this one came out! I also love the changes to Paul Major’s Corvette, it looks mean!

– Love the car, angle, and light in this picture, but what really makes it is the huge crowd in the background! It won’t be long until Brian Fisher goes an 8!

– This one came out really cool, it looks like smoke is trying to escape from every opening possible. Tim Grey’s hatch is always one I look forward to taking pictures of, you can always count on him to be at every race.

4. Jenny, I have seen your photos for about 2 years now that I can remember. How did you end up starting?

I started back in 2007 (gray coupe era!), I loved going to the track but I always felt like I wasn’t contributing anything. I’m the type that doesn’t like to sit around so I brought a point and shoot camera to a race, snapped a few pictures and keep progressing from there.

5. We are all jealous of you for your short trip to the track, since its in your back yard. Does this mean you get a good amount of practice at your shooting?

I would like to say yes, but World Cup Finals was actually only the third time I took pictures at a race in 2010! With no Tempest Racing car to travel with we pretty much went to races to hang out and have fun, not that taking pictures isn’t fun, I just had a different mindset this year.

6. Will we see more of your work coming in 2011?

Much more! Joe will be out with a new car in 2011, which means more races and a renewed sense of excitement! Greasy Blocks feature??? haha!

I would also like to say thank you to Jason Miller and all of the MIR staff for putting on World Cup Finals! It was definitely an event worth freezing your ass off for! Jason has never turned me away from shooting at events and I really appreciate that. I’m sure Jason is already getting started on WCF 2011, hopefully he plans on taking a vacation before then!

Peep the gallery of photos, all 200 of them!
