View Full Version : Godspeed Took 2nd Place @ Willow Springs Redline Time Attack

Godspeed Project got their fourth trophy @ Redline time attack!!!
With 90+ degrees heat baking all contestants and attendees on Saturday, it was a hard day for everyone. During this event we came across the most obstacles and problems we have ever ran into. The first thing we came across was our throttle cable. Hanging from the last string we were lucky to be able to catch this problem at a early stage. And with no performance shops or junk yards around we were pretty much almost out of luck. Driving around town trying to locate a autoparts store is not the easiest thing when we were literally in the middle of nowhere. But right before we gave up we knew we had to think like Macgyver and pull a Mickey Mouse job. While traveling back to the track, we came across Karl’s hardware store and there we found gold. A lawn mower cable solved the problem. After the installation, we are now ready to for the next day.
And on Sunday guess what happens…after 3 laps, we lost 5th gear and the tranny gave up. We were pretty much sh*t out of luck. And no way the hardware store or a lawn mower motor or part will fit on the car. We were on the urge of just giving up. But stressing out and running around the track we were super lucky to be able to find transmission from people at All Star Bash. I swear we thought that we hit the lottery that day. Who would of guess someone would have an extra S14 transmission on the track. So with the help of Paul and Alex from Sideway Performance and 2 hours of time left, we made it. Now we are ready to enter the dragon, I mean time attack session…..hahaha Here are the results;
Finally, after all the problems we had, we were able to manage a best lap time of 01:29.583 during our 2nd session. After the end of the day we were able to keep our standing in 2nd place just slightly 00.252 seconds behind ERWearks’s BMW 135 in the RWD street class. We were quite happy with the results, especially with all the problems we had during these 2 days. And now it’s time to take the S14 back to shop and have it re-done all over again so hopefully we won’t have these problems again at the next event.
We would like to give a special Thanks to everyone that help us get our S14 running again!!! We wouldn’t of been able to do this without all of you.
Paul and Alex @ Sideway Performance!!!
Karl's Hardware (Thank god we found you)
Steven Rodgers From SR Motorcars for lending us the Shift boot.
And last but not least a Special Thanks to all the sponsor once again;

They don't have a cage, that is the problem right now with the rules. I believe as the rules stand, they look at having a cage as a helpful "modification" because as we all know. It stiffens up the chassis. Godspeed runs in a street class, so it IS allowed. I haven't exactly asked Ken if they are planning on running a cage. I run in Enthusiast and thank god I didn't roll when I went off on turn 9 or else I'd be in much more pain.

yea we are planning to run cage, but we also thinking about the weight, car weighted 2680lbs Dry and the cage is about another 50-70lbs and we are underpower compare to other car in our class so we trying to have less weight as possible but street class we cant take out too many thing so we thing deciding what to do.
Street dont allow running Dog Box but we just ordered a brand new Z32 tranny and now is sitting at out shop.

Well.....First we dont own AeroDeisign, we just carry their product , we carry AIT,VIS,Seibon,turbonetics,greddy and Apex-i that dosent mean we own them(I wish:keke:)
Fatboy Garage own Godspeed so that why we have all the Godspeed product on our TimeAttack Race Car, and also our sponsor product Such as (Seibon,Apex-i,Greddy,hankook) and Aerodesign did not sponsor us so we run our old bride seat.
Lol, INB4 "Aero Designs" comes in claiming they aren't knock offs.
that what aerodesign claim....so there nothing to do with Fatboy Garage/Godspeed
u guys dont got videos? ^_^ I love to see them =P
nope but I should have some video for the next event

You know, you should focus on dominating street class next season with the car. Also, if you have the extra money.... WPC treat the trans gears. It will reduce your heat, and make the trans last longer. This Z32 trans arent cheap brand new.

so what your saying is because Fatboy Garage sells Aero design seats they own Areo design??? So by that logic since Sonic Motoring sells Megan coils they own Megan or because FRsport sells Nissan parts they own Nissan???
Fatboy Garage is a parts shop, just because they sell a different companies product does not mean they own it my friend
not trying to be a dick, just trying to find sense in your logic.

Why was it that Godspeed were the ones to first introduce these seats rather than Aero designs? I figure that if i had a company that made cheap seats i would be the one to sell them, not another company.

I think your still confusing Godspeed to be Fatboy Garage. They are not the same company, just the main distributor for Godspeed in the states.Bride its self doesn't sell any of there seats throw the company itself here in the states. Their seats are sold through anyone of its many distributors/vendors here in America. Fatboy just probably happens to be the first parts shop Aero design approached in the sates. Making it their main distributor/vendor, and maybe that's what causing the confusion.
