Competition Suspension would like to congratulate the following drivers on a sucessful weekend. Nic Faas had a strong weekend using his 7600 base valve Penske's tuned by CSI. After a fourth place finish at Bloomington on Friday, Faas dominated the field at Lawrencerburg to pick up the feature win in KISS competition. Sunday night Faas set quick time at Kokomo for the second week in a row, and brought home a third place finish in the feature. Josh Wise driving the Cruz Pedregon midget had a fantastic drive at ORP Saturday night in The Night Before the 500 midget classic. Wise used a new set of 7500 base valve Penske's tuned by CSI to come from 24th to 5th in the feature. Kody Swanson in the Western Speed entry also had an impressive run at ORP coming from 15th on the grid to 6th using 7300 Penske's tuned by CSI. Dirt or Pavement we have a shock package to get you in victory lane. Competition Suspension tunes Penske, Advanced, Afco, QA1 and many more. Give us a call today (317) 402-2299 or www.competitionsuspension.com

I think Nick Faas may surprise some people and compete for the Sprint Week Title. The kid seems to get better and better. IF not for motor issues he would have had another win over at Florence in the MSCS race. He was dominating there and he was very fast and smooth at the Burg as he cruised home Saturday night. They interviewed him in the booth before the feature and he seems like a class act that appreciates the fans and loves racing. HE was quick to congratulate crew and dad in victory lane saturday which showed me his appreciation to others. Keep up the good work Nick Faas we have enjoyed watching you this year and look forward to hopefully seeing you at the Burg Saturday night.

I don't think that would be a surprise. If im not mistaken he had a heck of a run during the usac race at the burg but something happened. He runs good dosent try to force anything really enjoy watching him run.

It would surprise me if he wasn't right there in the mix, come Sprint Week. Nic has been a great addition to the Indiana scene. A quality run almost every time out and he doesn't tear a lot of stuff up. He just opened up a big can of it on everybody at The Burg, the other night.

Nic and some others who don't have their cars setup so tight they have no choice to run the rubber have something on the competition. He dominated Florence, Runs well everytime at the Burg. He, Ballou, Bland, Levi and a few others often make it looke effortless to jump the cushion and fly.

Congrats Nic

There are very few that understand this especially fans very intelligent observation charles. I told a friend the exact same thing yesterday. The majority of the field most nights are simply too tight feature time and snap the cars loose trying to get the car to turn in. I struggled with this when I drove not having a crew chief to correct me that I was tight and snapping it loose. guys like faas and short can drive there cars wherever they need to especially in traffic. I wish Nic the best he does seem sincere and hungry to race and represent his guys well. Keep it up
