WISSOTA adds Quick Cam Checker for tech staff

FERGUS FALLS, MN (March 1) - WISSOTA tech officials spent a day working with and learning more about a new tech tool, a Quick Cam Checker.

This tool will allow WISSOTA officials, and track officials, to quickly and accurately check cam timing, lift, duration and other characteristics such as centerlines and lobe separation.

It will be used in a variety of WISSOTA classes where specific camshaft rules apply, such as in the Midwest Mod and Street Stock Concept engines, and crate engines as well.

“We think this will be a nice addition to the tech department’s tool box,” said WISSOTA technical director Bill Engelstad. “This will give us the chance to make sure another vital rule is being followed by drivers throughout the region. If you see a WISSOTA tech official in the pits in 2018, chances are good this is one of the things we’ll be teching,” he added.

If you have questions about this or any other rules that you must follow in your racing division, contact Engelstad at (218) 262-5823 or at billengelstad@yahoo.com.
