Our Very Own Driver Takes First In RWD Modified & Overall Modified
 
Major kudos are in order for our very own Sales Supervisor Adam Knapik! Over the weekend he won 1st place in the RWD Modified Class & Overall Modified Class with a time of 01:57.025 in his Nissan S14 at the Redline Time Attack Round 3 event at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. Both of these are great feats but the latter even more since he was faced against 4WD Monsters like Subaru Imprezas and Mitsubishi Evos! This was ultimately a great win in the 3rd round of Redline’s Time Attack Session for Adam and the whole FRSport Team.

Soon we will have complete images of the day’s events as the ones below only highlight our driver. Check our FB or Blog for the images later this week.

Canyon Companion 05-16-2013 06:50 PM

Awesome Job! Is there anywhere I can find out more about his car? I am debating weather or not I want to sell my Street/track Nissan 350z in order to fund a build for a track only S13 or 14.

nighthawk48 05-16-2013 07:08 PM

You're better off building a track only 350z. I've been seeing some 350z's doing extremely well lately.

Great job guys, car looks fantastic!

Pandadub92 05-19-2013 05:36 PM

good job!! Gilbert really is a suspension guru lolol

AJZax 05-22-2013 12:14 PM

AWESOME! Nice job!

I'm looking to time-attack my drift build. Just have to work out the aero (under carriage, front splitter, etc.) and hope I don't destroy it too much in pro am fd, lol.

I'd love to talk to him about setup!

I wonder what subframe modifications he has done, and what roll center corrections he has in order out on back, what kind alignment and traction rod adjustments comapred to stock.

I wish redline made it to midwest/NW as well. :(

It's and awesome platform but its just really expensive.

kognition 06-16-2013 09:52 AM

Well done! Car looks great!

cured13 06-16-2013 10:57 AM

Bravo Adam!

sleepyS14se 08-13-2013 01:57 PM

nice high quality pics!!

edit: btw i love frsport.com i order a ton from them

Bmadd 08-15-2013 02:29 PM

Way to kill it bro.

Spitfire8o5 08-15-2013 03:37 PM

Bad Ass!!! I ran a 2:04 on r compound (nt01s) and I was edge to edge hoping I stayed on the track lol that's really really fast! Was it ClockWise? And he did that on street tires!? (Hankook rs3?)

Please tell me there is some footage to be shared? Amazing job fellas. I too am interested in the choice of parts and some specs if you wouldn't mind sharing. (Spring rates, camber & toe, suspension and power plant list)

2:04 is very possible with RS3s if tires and suspension is setup properly. You just need more seat time to make use of NT01s.

However, 01:57...now that's just all monster skill because I can't even touch that unless I'm on Hossiers :eek:

Spitfire8o5 08-18-2013 09:13 PM

I drive a 93 Honda civic with 182hp and my tires are 205/50r15's lol I plan to change platform in the near future. Looking forward to it.

Sprayberry 10-22-2013 09:50 PM

Congratulations!

KA24DESOneThree 10-24-2013 08:35 AM

Adam, congrats.

Work your way over to TrackHQ and post in this thread. The more S-chassis cars on the lap time boards, the better.

Edit: His fast lap was on Hankook TD race tires.

Also, and I'm not exactly sure why they didn't post it up, but Adam ran a 1:54.752 at the July event at Buttonwillow to take fastest RWD of the day.

CaliforniaMayhem 12-14-2013 06:56 PM

Great pictures and congrats to the driver, Adam.
I too would love to see some specs on his suspension and even the powerplant.

Knapik 12-17-2013 07:27 PM

Thanks for all the kind words guys! Really appreciate it!

Should be doing a recap of the year as well. Ill try to do a car feature so that some of the specs are out there and ppl have an idea of what the S chassis has :D

240jake 12-23-2013 05:26 PM

awesome car/driver and def interested in grip setup specs!

11wrxman 07-08-2014 08:43 PM

WOW! Nice job!

Knapik 07-21-2014 04:18 PM

Just saw this bump up and remember now that I did a quick write up on what the S14 has.

http://www.heavythrottle.com/2014/06...ik-racing-s14/

Enjoy :) and thanks for the complements again guys!

rb25s13vert 07-28-2014 07:22 AM
