The number 112 red Mazda RX-7 got it done at ChumpCar with a huge gain at the end of the race picking up first place and a thousand dollars at the Infineon race on Sunday.

The Krider Racing /Speed Sport Life Nissan Sentra is leading the Sunday ChumpCar race at Infineon.
Team TSR is leading the early hours of the ChumpCar race at Infineon. These guys are on their third motor of the weekend, and this particular engine was a Cash For Clunkers rebuild. Outstanding!
After a full day of racing its time to rebuild brakes, tell tall tales, and swap motors for the next ChumpCar race, a seven hour enduro on Sunday at Infineon.
Team SAS Racing in their #10 Camaro won the ChumpCar Saturday race at Infineon Raceway. The team was comprised of a group of very capable drivers on the race track and handily won the race by 6 laps. And they did all of that in a vintage GM product.
Pit stops are a crucial point where races can be won or lost. Even if the cars are only worth $500 in the ChumpCar race, you still need to make the pit stop count. The picture above shows the Speed Sport Life crew in action. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention they have slipped to third place. Whoops!
Rain is falling on the track at Infineon (making those shaved tires a bummer of a tire choice). Cars are a slippin’ and a slidin’. Leading the race handily right now is a second generation Camaro which is currently having the wheels driven off of it. Can they stay on the track in the rain and pull of a win? We’ll know in just a few short hours (or long hours if you’re standing in the rain).
The green flag has dropped at Infineon Raceway for the ChumpCar World Series. The Krider Racing / Speed Sport Life Nissan (shod with Carbotech brake pads) was off to an early lead (and also set the fastest lap of the day -so far). Will their luck hold out? Only the rain, the head gasket and the ghost of Smokey Yunick knows that. Stay tuned.
The Infineon Raceway garages show the calm before the storm. The ChumpCar World Series race will begin Saturday at 9:00 a.m. officially kicking off the 2010 crap-can racing season. Race teams from all over the West Coast have decended on Infineon to try battle it out on the historic racetrack. Infineon has been home to such racing series as NASCAR, IndyCar, American Le Mans Series and now it will be home to the infamous ChumpCar, endurance racing for $500 cars. Yes, that is Danika Patrick standing next to the Speed Sport Life entry.
If you ask a lot of successful crew chiefs, most races are won before the green flag drops. Preparation is everything. You need to have your “A” game ready for every event. Practice makes perfect, yada, yada, yada. That’s why one week before the ChumpCar World Series at Infineon Raceway, the Speed Sport Life staff is in Las Vegas at the World Series of Beer Pong championships. |
 
 @michaelbanovsky Aside from the Supra, I think the 1992 Camry was a very handsome car.14 minutes ago  #FF @CruiseCtrlRad @nicolecarriere @SpeedSportLife @joelfeder @RaceShout @carchat @screweduptexan @CSASprints @lesleyhettinger @cbarger19 minutes ago |
