Muscle Car VS Tuner At Pacific Raceways

Muscle vs Tuner  8-10-14 47510 Aug 2014 Kent, WA – Cut a V8 muscle car in half and let the tuning begin. Carbs and eight pistons vs. four pistons, fuel injection and turbos pitted against each other in a race to the finish.

Cole Marmon and his record setting Speed Factory 99 Civic has to be the tops in the tuner class with Bryan Schmitt in his Worthy built dragster for the Muscle side. 75 racers tried to get to the top with the imports getting an early edge in the first round, though by round four a lone tuner lived in the muscle mix.

A couple rounds later the finals brought that lone tuner vs. the last muscle. In a twist to what many would think of a final being a car vs. car. Not so here as Jim Werre on his motorcycle kept the consistent E.T.’s to down the V8 racer in the other lane.

For the Muscle car crowed the 65 Malibu of Dave Connor prevailed pitting him against the bike. At the finish line a better R/T and a closer to dial put Jim in the winner’s circle.
