Team JBA showed up to display and support the Wicked Stangs drag day at Barona Saturday the 22nd of August.  Long time JBA customer David Schwartz of PSCA Drag Radial fame brought out his monster turbo fox body to check out his new parachute andnd new timing belt tension.  David is second in PSCA points with4 races to go as he tunes up for Vegas next month. 

Austin Bittle pulled the ex-UC High School drag Fairlane out of moth balls and proceeded to spank his Dad leaving him on the starting line as the GT500 proceeded to break a pinion gear and deposit gear oil on the starting line after the burn out.  Seems Dad was really hitting the clutch with a dream of hole-shoting his son for once…Stewart Bittle as crew chief set tire pressures and assisted in eliminations till the mid-night finish under the lights. 

The JBA display at the track was well recieved with Shaun Dove and JR Twedt spending great time with many competitors and spectators talking JBA Racing Engines and Services.

Last Saturday over here at JBA Performance Center we had the San Diego Focus Club join us for a few hot dogs and they also put a couple of cars on our Chassis dyno!

Also we had a couple of happy customers drive by in their Muscle Cars…we had a ’68 Pontiac Firebird 400, 70 1/2 Camaro Z28, a Olds 442 and a couple of late model Mustangs.  Throughout the day we had about 30 people out and about the shop checking us out and eating lunch.  Don’t forget to join us for our last Open House this weekend on Aug. 29th! 

Here are a few pictures from the weekend…

Recently, J Bittle Performance developed a new exhaust system for the Ford GT. Incorporating the popular JBA long tube headers, mid-pipes and a new muffler with dual polished exhaust tips, the system replaces the factory exhaust and gives it less restriction, while giving the vehicle a performance tone that doesn’t resonate inside the vehicle.  To find out more about the exhaust system for the Ford GT click here:  http://products.jbaracing.com/feature_pages/07FORDGT.asp
