FSC Articles September

As seen in the September 2012 (Vol 12) issue of FSC: Fasteststreetcar.com Magazine, our own George Rumore of Stainless Works was mentioned. He assisted racer Bill Lutz who was featured in the below articles. Good work helping him out, George!


Key Ingredients

Though the header issues were the biggest problem that needed solving on Bill Lutz' '69 Camaro, they weren't the only thing keeping him from the winner's circle. A race car is a complicated thing and getting this one back up to speed involved a lot of smaller tweaks that wound up making a big difference. At Atlanta, Lutz dropped a valve in qualifying and soon found that he had three more ready to do the same thing. With the valve problem solved and the headers repaired (including some work by Jeff Lutz before the two met in the final), the car was obviously running well. But there were also some less-obvious factors at work. 

"Hank Hill scaled it and moved some things around on the chassis," Lutz said. "We added NACA ducts for the turbo and we also moved the wastegates to where they exit outside the car. I think it's a lot of little things that made the car run the way it did."

Under Pressure: Lutz Roars Back with MIR Victory
B&M Top Qualifier: Bill Lutz 5.978 @ 247.43

Two races into the 2012 Kooks Pro Street season, Bill Lutz was nowhere near where he'd expected to be. After a promising charge to close out 2011, Lutz had high hopes for 2012, but mechanical issues affected the health of the car during the first two races. At Maryland International Raceway, however, both were back to full health.  

"I'd noticed that I'd been getting more fumes in the car than normal, then it got to the point that I actually thought I had carbon monoxide poisoning," Lutz explained. "I sent the headers up to George Rumore at Stainless Works and they found that the headers were broken in places you just couldn't see. That was where the performance went." 

 The performance was back in full fore at MIR. Lutz got off to a dominant start in qualifying, resetting both ends of the class record with a 5.978/247.43 mph blast Saturday night. Points leader Chris Rini was next up with a 6.025/234.49, followed by Jeff Lutz with a 6.216/236.17. Josh Green, finally over his early-season transmission issues, took fourth with a 6.70/204.98. Chassis builder Steve Drummond showed up on Saturday and put his turbo Mustang into the show with a conservative 6.819 at 204.98. Local legend Tommy Gray rounded out the field with his familiar "Undertaker" GTO despite a rough time in qualifying. 

Sunday's eliminations began with Jeff Lutz and Green squaring off in what turned out to be the best race of the round. J. Lutz took the win with a 6.344/239.78 in his turbo machine, while Green ran a 6.777/202.48 that, considering the team's struggles to date, had to be somewhat encouraging. The next pair saw Drummond score the upset o fthe weekend when Rini's '69 Camaro broke a rear end, then Bill Lutz closed it out with a bye run when Gray didn't make the call to the starting line. 

In round two, Jeff Lutz got an easy win when Drummond didn't make it to the line, while Bill Lutz got an even easier win with a competition bye. Jeff got lane choice with a 6.361/237.93, while Bill made a hit, shut it off and saved it for the final round.
In the final round battle of guys named Lutz driving turbocharged '69 Camaros, the guy from Ohio in the blue car equipped with Garrett turbos drove around the guy from Pennsylvania in the orange car equipped with Precision turbos and took the win with a 6.095/241.37. 

"We had it set up to go somewhere between and .05 and a .00, because Jeff's car had been getting steadily faster each round," B. Lutz explained. "It shook a little bit around 500 feet, so I did a quick pedal job and it ended up going an .09. We were extremely happy to get our first Pro Street win. We'd won many in Super Street, but Pro Street's been a little tougher with the competitors we have out there."

Honoring a Veteran with SW New Raptor System

Stainless Works is proud to support Lance Corporal Cody Evans, who lost his legs serving all of us and his county when he stepped on a mine in Afghanistan last December. Several organizations, including Ford, demonstrated true generosity when they gave Cody a customized 2012 Ford Raptor that he could drive without the use of his legs, and all of us at Stainless Works are honored to donate our latest Ford Raptor system for use on his new truck!

Lance Corporal Cody Evans Honored: One of the NMCA's top late-model HEMI racers, Rick Ellison, honored Lance Corporal Cody Evans at the Maryland event as his honorary crew chief for the weekend. Lance Corporal Evans was severely injured while serving his country in Afghanistan and has been recuperating in Bethesda Naval Hospital. Having learned that Lance Corporal Evans recently took possession of a new Ford Raptor courtesy of several charities, NMCA put out the call to its sponsors for cool performance products in an effort to show our appreciation for his service and sacrifice. A special thank you to Stainless Works, JPC, Airaid, Keystone Automotive, DiabloSport, ARP, Lucas Oil, Hawk Performance, and Mothers Polish for their generous product donations. Cody is looking forward to working with Justin Burcham from JPC to make his already cool Ford Raptor even cooler.

There was a presentation to Cody at the NMCA Nationals in Maryland. In the words of our own George Rumore: 

I would like you guys to meet Cody Evans. He is a Vet that has come home from serving for our Country in the USMC. He suffered an injury that took his legs from him. We had the honor to be a part of a small program to show him thanks for his service. Ford motor corp built him a custom hand controlled Ford Raptor. We were contacted by the NMCA to see if we would like to donate any of our product to the build. Our response was we would like to donate everything we can for the build. Cody will receive our Side exit cat back for his all new Raptor. We here at Stainless Works feel it's the least we could do. [...] Thank you sir it was an honor to meet you. Semper Fi my friend.
