It cools the motor by 30%. Definately enough to keep you from going thermal.

I'm right there with you Paul! I'm still rock'n the original "Black" Cyclone with a few choice upgrades. I might upgrade to the TC chassis when I buy a new chassis so I can use the torsion control feature.

I still think the best Cyclone would be a WCE with a Pro-Spec Diff and 18T Pulleys/Belts.

You really miss Team Purple don't you...well...we can be big about this. Lose the Blue P.O.S. and get into another HB and all is forgiven.

Otherwise...you're just lapped traffic to us fast guys! Even the fat guy will lap you...just ask him.

After I sent you the pic of the killer meatloaf this is how you treat me I'll be driving my Blue friend testing a few things this weekend If HB would sponsor me and send me a free kit I'd run it again, but until that happens there will be a blue car lapping you for a while

Keep testing.Just make sure to comfort Jaime letting him know that its ok and that because of you, he is not alone because he is running a 415 now and is in the way and in the B. I would rather pay for my sh*t and run a Cyclone,then run a blue pile of dung for free.

HB seems to sponsor just about anyone in CA. If your located there it seems you should just ask and maybe your wish would be granted You don't even have to be fast.

In the case of many CA residents, it seems you just hang out with them or they approach you. I would go about the usual way and get to know the right people, practice and become one of the faster drivers, and prove that you act in a professional responsible manner on a day to day basis. Help all those that you can and enjoy your time. Aaron Waldron wrote a good article about how to go about obtaining a sponsorship. It's not what they can do for you, but what you can do for them and the hobby in general.

I live and race in SoCal and all the guys who run for HotBodies deserve to be sponsored. I think there is a total of 6 guys who are running for HB.....and then there is alot of privaters like myself who are running the car because it is fast, affordable, and HB has been doing alot in supporting are local race scene.
