NYCE1s Presents 2009 Outlaw Shootout Coverage

Nyce1s.com never disappoints with their footage from the events. So it comes as no surprise that the 2009 Outlaw Shootout Coverage is nothing less than amazing coverage. Julian, Craig and their entire team went above and beyond to really showcase the racers and all that was put into this event. This event was, by far, the best event of the 2009 season and these two videos show exactly why!

Enjoy! And don't forget to check out our youtube page for many more racing videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/NRGtechracing

Miller Takes Home The Win!

This past weekend was the 2nd Annual Outlaw Shootout at Fall Nationals at Englishtown, and what an amazing weekend it was! We started off the week with Danny Smith coming in from Alabama, Jose Jiminez and Aldo Mireles coming in from Texas and Alberto Rodriguez coming in from Albany all to get some work done before the Shootout. What resulted was 90+ hours of straight labor, long days, even longer nights, broken parts and some seriously stressed racers. After a very long week, we set out on Friday morning for Englishtown, NJ with our sights set on Raceway Park. After arriving we began doing some testing on Alberto Rodriguez's civic which was to run the SFWD trim. ARod managed to nail down his personal best time and mph with a 9.47@155mph.

Saturday morning we were up early finishing up some mechanical work and polishing up some tunes. The rain delayed qualifying for a few hours on Saturday afternoon but we were eventually able to get the qualifying runs in. Miller was #1 qualifier with a 8.81@171mph.
Saturday night was a true showing of how much racers really look out for and help fellow racers! Jose Jiminez and Aldo Mireles, both of 1320 Racing in Texas, ran into some brake and axle problems. Jose's brakes kept locking up and we were, eventually, able to diagnose the issue and fix it. Aldo's axle broke in the halfshaft. While Greg Fiero from the NRG team and Aldo drove to Long Island to get a new axle, Jay at http://www.n2mb.com/ was a huge help with getting the axle out of the half shaft. Bill Draghi and Paul Pero also stayed up all night to help out.

Sunday was a literal whirlwind. From the minute we woke up (after our 2 hours of sleep) till the last race went off the day was nothing but full of energy and craziness! Everyone involved in this event, from the track officials to the racers to the fans, was AWESOME! The racers who competed put on an amazing show. Between their dedication to the sport and their absolute willingness to push their cars to limit they were able to give us all an incredible event.

Chris had an amazing run all day Sunday. Everytime we thought that the car had nothing left in it, him and the crew pulled it out. As many of us know it was Chris and Fernando Cunha in the finals. Both cars were hurt, but these two showed just how much fight they have in them. Chris was able to pull it out one last time and ran a scorching 8.75 @ 172 mph.

We (Chris and myself) need to acknowledge and thank some people without whom this event would have never seen the light of day!
