Tuner Battle Week

For the 6th year in a row, Super Street Magazine invited some of the fastest Front Engine Front Wheel driven cars in the west to compete in the FF Battle. FF Battle is a two-day competition that takes place at Streets of Willow for a track day and at Raceline USA for a Dyno day. The combined score from the Dyno numbers and the track times yielded a winner. Find out who wins in a field stacked with K20 Turbos, Super Charged Type-R's, B18 Swaps and plenty of VTEC roar.

The field for the 2014 European Car Tuner GP, presented by Continental Tire, was stacked full of high horsepower and fast lap times. At Streets of Willow we saw lap times drop into the 1:23 range courtesy of Platte Forme AG and their 2015 M3. We also saw insane dyno numbers at Church Automotive go up into the 600WHP range by 034 Motorsport's Audi A3 and a relatively low horsepower E36 M3 almost take the overall win. The competition was very close but there could only be one winner.

Take some of the highest horsepower builds from all makes and models, invite them to an open runway at a closed airport and let them drive as fast as they can in a 1/2 mile straight line and you have the 1st. Annual Top Speed Shootout. There were a mixture of vehicles, everything from 1200-hp Porsches, to 800-hp BMW M3's and Toyota Supras, to a 179mph 2014 Kawasaki ZX-14R all going flat out.

At 2014's FR Shootout, there was everything from the FR-S to the 370z to wickedly fast S2000's all competing for the same thing -- the fastest lap time of the day, period. From boosted to normally aspirated cars, key components like braking, suspension, and vehicle set up played a crucial role in getting a fast lap time at Streets of Willow.

Super Lap Battle took place at Buttonwillow Raceway and there is coverage of it all. Held in conjunction with the Global Time Attack Series, the best of the best came out to see if they could break records and set lightning fast lap times. The field was broken up into classes from Enthusiast all the way to Unlimited where the major deciding factors had to do with tire rating and vehicle modifications.
