Default Chris Miller to race in Brazil

I was expecting to have someone posting before I do, but looks like nobody did so far.

That's it.
Chris is coming down Brazil next week (first week of June) and will race one of our VW cars.
This car ran a 9.4s (and set the record on this pass) almost 2 years ago and since then it's parked at Motorfort garage.

Chris is coming down to visit Fueltech's facility and know a bit more about the EMS and the factory.

Link to the article about this (please do a google translator for better understanding )

Some pics/videos:



You can also find an old article about the car on this digital version of a magazine we have here in BR

Yeah.
I think Chris will probably run 8s on this car. They're working on everything to give a rocket to Chris.

Currently we have 6 cars running 8s on this class (full body and 24.5x8 max tire size)

Adriano Salton - Facchineto Motorsports
8.776@182mph

Carlos Castilhos - Motorfort (same team will take care of the car Chris is gonna drive)
8,870s@182mph

Alex Carrara - Kadu Racing
8.914@178mph

Renato Brizolari - Kadu Racing
8.936@173mph

Everton "ET" - Facchineto/Fofo Drag Racing
8.96@183mph

Paulo Eduardo Ramos - MotorFort
8,972@177mph

Top dogs are using Saenz transmissions (from Argentina), which is the one that is holding some serious power.
But most cars still have Sapinho, Bertolotti and Recuperg built transmissions.
