Vmax Motorsports sponsored car?





I talked with Pete today and he had mentioned that we will be meeting with Bobby Fischer during the P.R.I. show in two weeks about getting our name on his car for 08. From what I hear he has given everyone a good run for the money this last season and has big plans for the 2008 season starting with road Atlanta. Pete and I are hoping to get get up to that event.
Bobby Fischer’s naturally aspirated 2005 Cadillac CTS-V has had many modifications done to his car. To start off,the intake consists of a Lingenfelter cold air system, F.A.S.T. intake manifold, and 2.055” intake valves. Com Tech provided the 90mm throttle body and fuel rails. The full exhaust system starts off with Billy Boat long tube headers which have 1 ¾ “primary tubes which flow into a 3” collector. The rest of the system has Random Tech catalytic converters, Billy Boat 3” exhaust,x-pipe and resonators. The mufflers are on the rear of the car only. The exhaust valves are 1.6”. Now, back to the motor itself. The injectors,coil-packs, and wires are factory. The heads are ported and were changed from 15⁰ to 14⁰ . The heads were re-worked by CNC Cylinder Heads. The camshaft is a Comp Cam. The specifications on this are exhaust/intake duration 232/236 @ .050”respectively. The exhaust/ intake lift is .595/.601 respectively. The lobe center is 114, 4⁰. The compression ratio is approximately 11.3 with .041”Cometic head gaskets. The fuel this vehicle uses is 93 octane pump gas,preferably from BP. All the tuning was done by Finish Line Performance in Naperville, IL. The installation of the parts was done by Creative Engineering in Beloit, WI. A special thank you goes to VMAX MOTORSPORTS for referring and doing the F.A.S.T intake, all the Com Tech parts, and the Comp Cams. VMAX has made this car extremely competitive from the short, 1.95 mi track at Blackhawk Farms Raceway to the legendary 4.05 mi track of Road America.
