2011 Patriot Run – Lashway salutes, remembers, and honors those who perished on 9/11/01

Lashway Motorsports is proud to announce their involvement this year in the 2011 Patriot Run which extends from Davie Florida all the way to Islamorada in the Florida Keys. The event begins on 9/10/11 and ends Sunday, 9/11/11.
Traditionally, the event which is hosted by Stangs of South Florida, was only open to Ford vehicles. However, because of the popularity of the run, and the recent surge of GM and Mopar models onto the market, the host decided to open it to all makes and models- this turned out to be a great idea!
Among other things, the event includes a police escort to the host hotel in Islamorada, local television coverage, a silent auction, and a huge party Saturday night which features a buffet and drinks for all attendees.
All proceeds from the event support two great causes, both of which support families of fallen hero’s in our community including Police and Fire Rescue.
Lashway teamed up with Nitrous Express this year and donated $750 worth of gift certificates good for any Nitrous Express product. As a gold sponsor, Lashway is happy to be a part of such a wonderful cause and will never forget that fateful day in our nations history!

For more information, or to register your vehicle, visit www.PatriotRun.org or call Lashway at (954) 971 4383.

God Bless America!

Lashway and Nitrous Express – One HELL of a Combination!

In its never ending quest to kick ass in this business, Lashway has teamed up with an industry leader to test and tune a product which will soon be available to the general public!
Nitrous Express has enlisted the help of the crew at Lashway Motorsports to help test and tune a very new plate system for any vehicle equipped with the FAST (Fuel Air Spark Technology) 102mm Intake Manifolds. These manifolds are produced in two port styles: square port style cylinder heads like the L92 casting from GM as well as the classic Cathedral port style which were found on casings like 241′s and 243′s in the Gen III and some Gen IV LS engines produced from 1997 to 2006. This plate is designed to support upwards of a 400 wet shot (“wet” is a term used to indicate when nitrous and fuel are sprayed together at a given point after the MAF into the manifold runners.  “Dry” shots are systems that introduce only nitrous into the intake track before the MAF.  Dry systems rely on the MAF sensor to add the appropriate amount of fuel to the combustion chamber).
Plate systems have been in use for several years and are proven to be a great (and economical) way to inject nitrous oxide into the engine resulting in some incredible power gains.  Lashway is extremely excited and honored to work with such a large and well known company who specializes in Nitrous technology!
Lashway will utilize a 2010 SS equipped with the LS3/6 speed powertrain. Along with the plate system and a 15 lb bottle, a custom ground Lashway camshaft and aftermarket 1 7/8″ Kooks headers will also be utilized.
We’re expecting nothing short of one hell of a  ”seat of your pants” sensation with this one!
Check back for more updates frequently!

Check out Lashway’s very own “Project BackLASH”

Click here to be redirected to the build thread:

http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/sponsor-vehicle-projects-shop-tours/1440807-lashways-newest-build-project-backlash.html#post15185892

I decided to take my 98 Z28 and turn it into a track monster, but on a budget! The goal was not only to show potential customers our services and abilities, but also show that anyone can build a pretty serious street/strip car for right around $10,000 (which compared to most builds is cheap!)

You have to be smart, creative, ingenious, and only buy parts that you must have in order to safely and effectively (as well as legally) get down the strip.

We used as much “stuff” as we could that we had laying around the shop including our worn out pacesetter 1 3/4″ longtubes complete with EGR and AIR block off plates! Like we said, this is a budget build and we’re sticking to that as best we can.

We focused mainly on getting the car down to a sub 3000 pound race weight, so we utilized as many light-weight parts as possible including a BMR tubular k member and chromoly 10 point roll cage from Wolfe Racecraft- one of our newest vendors! We also shaved a lot of weight from the vehicle by removing HVAC and other components that are not needed for racing.

The car will feature a big cam and nitrous. We’re shooting for 9′s through a 6 speed and big ass rear end!

You can follow the build’s progress on LS1tech, the link is above!

If you have any questions about our services or parts being utilized in this particular build, feel free to contact us!

Lashway Motorsports named official sponsor of Hooters and Hot Rods Car Show!

Lashway Motorsports is excited to announce their official participation in the well-known Hooters and Hot Rods car show which takes place on the first Sunday of every month at the Boca Raton Hooters located just west of I-95 on Glades Road. 

The promoter decided to approach us with the unique opportunity to become part of a large monthly car show which is open to all years, makes and models.

We were happy to get on board with the other supporting shops in the area and have a lot of great ideas in store to avoid the “staleness” that the show has experienced the last couple of months.  Ideas include parts specials, raffles, giveaways, free nitrous refills and so much more. And what a better environment than with the almost world famous Hooters girls on hand!

Hot Girls, Hot Food and Hot Rods? Doesn’t get better than that now does it?
