September 21 2008: Corvettes run fast once again!

The 2001 Z06 Corvettes run by Bryan Holyk (28) and Chris Chamberlain (94) ran fast and strong this last race weekend at Mission's Rivers Edge Race Way.

In the IP1 class race on Saturday, in the rain Chris managed a 1st in class with Bryan a close 2nd and on Sunday Bryan ended up with a 1st in class and the class record of a 1.143. WOW, what a blast.

In the big event on Sunday during the Children's Charity Race, Chris managed a 4th in P2 class with Bryan nipping at his heals in 5th.

It was a great fast weekend and a ton of fun was had by all.

Next event is October 11th at Mission and we are gunning for the IP1 championship with Bryan Holyks Corvette Z06. If the two Vettes complete the race, we will have a Bishop pepped Corvette finishing one and two in the IP1 standings!

What a awesome year!

14 Jul 2008: Racing is cool, especially when you win!

That is right and so true! When you are winning, you are on top of the world and that is exactly where we are right now!

After another fabulously hot race weekend at Mission Race Way Park, Bishop raced Bryan's 2001 Z06 Corvette to two 1st place class finishes, a lap record in class and got a over all race win on Sunday! Rock and Roll!

With the help of our new Kumho tires and Doug Rippie brake upgrades, we managed to set records, win races and have a good old time!

What else is new, not to much as we are swamped with racing duties and it is the busy supercharger season. If you ever wanted a supercharger, the time is now as we are selling boat loads of them and there are saving to be had.

Thanks for reading and next race is September 1 2008!

02 Jun 2008: CORVETTE FINISH 1 - 2 IN A ROCK AND ROLL WEEKEND!

Well, it is over. What a great weekend! Chris Chamberlain and Bryan Holyk finish the Race Weekend at Mission Race Way Park with an exciting one two finish.

Saturday was hot and Bryan was dialed in for a pole in class start and with Chris a close second. The Saturday would end with a first in class for Chris and a 2nd in class for Bryan in IP-1 (Improved Production) in their 2001 Z06 Corvettes.

Sunday was even more fun, with Bryan getting another class pole start but with Chris, who was simply on fire, did some outstanding driving and ended up with a 1st in class and a class track record of 1.1625 lap time! Rock on! Bryan did great claiming a 2nd place finish after dueling out with one of Steve Pequets 996 Porsches driven by Travis Hill.

The next generation Chamberlain, Ty, had a brilliant Saturday in his novice race (driving pop's white Z06) with after a hard fought battle with a Paxton supercharged S2000, claimed his first race win! Watch out for Ty as he is only 16 years old and is getting better with each race!

Over all, excellent weekend at that plus we are one more week closer to getting g the new Dynapack Chassis Dyno. Look like we are going to go four wheel drive at that!

Thanks all for your support and a special thanks to Darryl Bassani and those awesome sounding exhaust! Rock on!
