Jessica Barton Goes 9.04!

Guest Blog with Jessica Barton

I went out to run my car this weekend at the War of the Imports event we had at my local track. I just recently got a custom suspension set up from Titan Motorsports and it seems to have worked well, shaving off a tenth off my previous fastest pass ever. We still have some dialing in to do, but we will save that for an actual day of testing and not during an event. I wanted to run 8’s so bad today but man with it being over 90 degrees out and the track just getting worse and worse each pass, it just wasn’t going to happen. Hopefully this winter my ET’s will drop lower and lower! Thanks To Darin for getting the car all set up to run, and Titan for getting this suspension made up rather quickly. There will be more info on the suspension soon. I will say the car felt waaayyyy more stable all around on the track, and my first pass of the day I got my best 60’s ever, which was a 1.37. I am still pretty heavy (the car), I weighed it and it was 3400lbs (3393 to be exact). Here’s the video.

Basic breakdown of the slip was
1.39 60′
5.98 1/8
127mph
9.04 1/4
161mph

More From The Titan Interior Department

December 11th, 2009 Comments off

We have been turning out some really nice upholstery pieces ever since we added our interior division to the Titan line up. We are able to update any interior piece on any car. Whether is be the headliner, seats, arm rest, shift boot, you name it and we can do. Here are a few examples of our most recent work. The perforated leather is a nice update to the Supra interior.




New ACT Twin-Disc Race Clutch For SRT-4

December 10th, 2009 Comments off

This new ACT Race twin-disc kit offers SRT-4 enthusiasts a true race-ready complete direct bolt in clutch kit that requires absolutely no modifications. The ACT Race twin disc kit utilizes sintered iron discs for maximum holding capacity (770 lbs/ft of torque) and quick shifting while also offering twice the surface area for high heat capacity and long life. Each kit has an overall weight of 15 lbs as compared to the 31 lb stock kit (a 52% decrease in weight) and results in a very low moment of inertia. With ACT’s ability to design and manufacture their own diaphragm springs, they were able to keep the pedal load to a minimal 15% increase over the stock pedal load.

TMS Cam Bolts Are Here!

December 8th, 2009 Comments off

After extensive cam testing we have found that the stock cam bolt for the 2JZ-GTE engine is not optimal when aftermarket modification have been performed. Stock cam bolts do not break, but we have found when spinning past the stock rev limiter that the bolt is not as effective and would require a new bolt that can be torque down more. Titan Motorsports has developed the only Cam Bolt on the market to fix some issues with harmonics as well as made it more appealing bolt to install on the car.

Still the Quickest Street Supra/Import!!

December 7th, 2009 Comments off

Three months ago the owners of Titan Motorsports, Nero and Bottle Deliwala, had been challenged to make a showing at the NSCRA event at Palm Beach International Raceway. Twenty Eight days ago the challenge was accepted, and the final verdict was handed down: The Supra was to not only make a showing in the December 6th NSCRA final race of the year, but to make a statement. At that point we proceeded to call John Brown with the NSCRA, who was more than happy to hear the decision. The NSCRA committed to help in any way they could to get us there, and to make our NSCRA experience as seamless as possible. We can’t thank John or his organization enough for all the support they showed us, and for letting Titan Motorsports add another page to the import drag racing history books.

With the owners committed, the race organization in tune, and our tech being flown in, things were looking good, and we were on track to achieving our goal. Our goal was simple; beat our previous 7.71 record. But that was no easy task. We knew it couldn’t be done alone, and we knew we wouldn’t have to. Our sponsors really step up on this one, as always, and came through with the support and product we needed to achieve our goal. Before we go any further, we would like to give a special thanks to those companies:

Mickey Thompson Tires, XS Power batteries, Nitrous Express, Precision Turbo, Strange Engineering Ringers Gloves, ARP, Adell Wiggins, ATI Super Damper, Borla Headers, Ferrea, Fidanza, Fluidyne, Innovate Motorsports, JE Pistons, Motec, NGK, PST, and RC Engineering,

We arrived to the NSCRA event untested in our new setup, and our first run of the day had already matched our best 1/8th mile run to date. On the second run the car achieved an incredible benchmark in drag racing; a 4 second 1/8th mile run, but unfortunately the car shut off at the 1000ft mark. So we hoped the third run would be the charm, and it was. We ran an incredible 7.66@188.44mph, on a nitrous bottle that ran empty 1000ft into the run. Challenge accepted, statement made! Once again Titan Motorsports would like to thank the NSCRA for letting us be a part of their event, our sponsors, the crew, and the hundreds of fan’s that welcomed us back into the import scene with open arms. Stay tuned for more on the NSCRA event.



The Race Team Is Back…

December 2nd, 2009 Comments off

The Titan Renegade is back and so is the race team. The guys have been putting the finishing touches on the Copper Supra in preparation for the upcoming NSCRA event (some of you may have been following our coverage). Shortly after the Supra is finished, they will be back to work on the Scion getting it ready for another action packed season of ADRL racing. Our last two seasons have been very successful but we fell short in the final events. This coming season we look to get back in the saddle and grab hold of what slipped through our finger tips last year.
