The world of grudge racing can rival any high stakes poker game with expressionless faces and tightly guarded secrets on the cards your holding. Ask any notable grudge racer what his or her car runs and you should expect a long silence combined with a stare that speaks volumes of their displeasure for the question.
Bruce Wade and his Two Face 1968 Camaro thrive in the No Time/Grudge Racing world, however he was gracious enough to tease us by showing a 3,272 WHP result on the Mainline Hub Dyno. This team isn’t messing around when it comes to being one of the most feared on the scene. Don’t get too excited, that is with the small turbos and they tested a pair that are slightly larger. Also in view is the stout engine package, mostly because there is no way to hide a set of billet HEMI cylinder heads when the front-end is off the car. But the team keeps the cards down and their smiles and fun-loving attitudes will keep you guessing on the car’s true potential.
Despite the secrets, we can brag about the engine management system used to help the team chase after big money shootouts. The Camaro has a formidable FT600 ECU wired into it and that model is the pinnacle of the PowerFT line-up. All FuelTech engine management systems—FT600, FT550, FT550LITE, and FT450—offer sequential injection and ignition, Data Logger, Delay Box, Boost Controller, and Nitrous Controller as standard features. All ECUs also include a closed loop option for advanced and efficient fuel function, aiding in engine safety.
The FT450, FT550, and FT600 ECU units house an LCD display and touchscreen on the actual unit, showing real-time data and allowing the user to make adjustments without a PC connection. Not only does the ECU display the real-time information from the assortment of sensors connected to the engine management system, all PowerFT ECUs can data log each sensor and that eliminates the need for an additional system to be built into the vehicle.
The excessive 3,200+ WHP demands big fuel delivery and this Camaro relies on ridiculously large fuel injectors, which require a FuelTech 8A/2A Peak and Hold driver to help keep them under control. Applications that run eight injectors utilize two Peak and Hold 8A/2A boxes while combinations that run 16 injectors will need four boxes. FuelTech recently unveiled its latest injector driver box dubbed the Peak and Hold PRO. This new unit can adjust the amperage based on the fuel injector requirements, as well as run diagnostics and set fail-safe thresholds to prevent faulty injectors from causing catastrophic engine failure. The new Peak and Hold PRO is a dual-channel box, meaning it can run up to eight fuel injectors and two boxes are needed to run up to 16 injectors.
From the high banks of professional drifting and the straights of NHRA championship drag racing to the high-stakes game of No Time/Grudge Racing, there is a reason you’re seeing #FuelTechEverywhere
