Car Driver Mr Ronnie Sox Four Speed Mopar Plymouth Race
Ronnie Sox competenty screwed the new 68 Sox & Martin Hemi Barracuda, It was an immediate winner 10 seconds that was getting faster and faster than the team changed their development forward. Recently, the core team for Chryslers drag racing program, did clinics, S & M ran, and tested hard on their rare days off. It was an all-out effort in total war, designed to dominate in any theater. S & M clinical appearances were often scheduled the same weekend as one big event or a meet staged at points across the country. often the team brought different cars, such as its Road Runner one B-440 wedge block powered GTX, Hemi-powered, and a Hemi-powered Plymouth Super Bird with the NASCAR-style rear wing. Regardless of body style, any car trimmed in flat Sox & Martin colors carried by mail.
It is not only these cars excel in NHRA Super Stock Eliminator, they were also quick in match race trim. This phenomenon has grown from Chrysler, Ford, GM and dislike for disabled drivers running style and disqualifying break outs to go too fast. They preferred to get heads-up and basic run-Whatcha-brung rules. Interestingly, most of this was the first day back a Funny Car Match Race Mania and trails and so loved by fans.
The Hemi Barracudas and Darts were right at home in these events and the heads-up racing game. It was this popularity that led both NHRA and AHRA to offer heads-up racing Pro Stock, beginning with the winter both association serves 70. Bill Jenkins, always one of the toughest competitors S & M, had a breakthrough in the field, running numerous heads-up events and match races with a 2-4 Carbed, Tunnel-Rammed 427 Camaro running the slightest. He dominated the Pro Stock events in early 1970 and AHRA and NHRA races and the NHRA Gatornationals March. M & S caught up quickly and dominated the rest of the season. This run-scan table included a team win by Herb McCandless in Sox & Martin Plymouth Hemi Duster at Nationals. S & M won all other NHRA Pro Stock event this year.
They opened the 71 season where they left off in 1970, earning up to half of the year in 1971 when they lost in the NHRA Summernationals in Englishtown, New Jersey. The team of S & M does not outrun that race was great, but fell to an untimely flat tire as they were moving toward the starting line during eliminations.

Press Release
BENTLEY SUPERSPORTS ‘ICE SPEED RECORD CONVERTIBLE DEBUTS AT GENEVA SHOW
Celebration of Bentleys world ice speed record- breaking Supersports convertible driven by rally champion, Juha Kankkunen
(Geneva, 28 February 2011) Bentley announces today its most potent and radically styled convertible ever - the 202mph (325km/h) Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record convertible. This new model, limited to just 100 cars worldwide, is a celebration of the Companys world ice speed record set two weeks ago by Finlands four-time world rally champion Juha Kankkunen in a Bentley Continental Supersports convertible.
Driving the all-wheel drive, biofuel-powered 6-litre, 12-cylinder Continental Supersports convertible on the perilous frozen Baltic Sea, off the coast of Finland, Kankkunen achieved a speed of 205.48 mph (330.695 km/h) eclipsing his own ice speed record of 199.83 mph (321.6 km/h) set in 2007 in the Continental GT.
Both the new Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record convertible and Juhas record-breaking Supersports will be on display on the Bentley stand at the Geneva Show from 1st March.
Wolfgang Duerheimer, Bentleys new Chairman and Chief Executive, said:
"Juha Kankkunens drive was a remarkable achievement and worthy of a very special car. The Continental Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record is a true drivers car that captures that unique Bentley spirit. It offers extreme performance, agility and an extrovert personality, while retaining the refinement, handcrafted luxury and comfort our customers expect."
Bentleys most powerful 6 litre W12 engine with FlexFuel technology
The 6-litre, twin turbo-charged W12 engine, produces 640 PS (631 bhp / 471 kW) - the most powerful Bentley ever - and 800Nm (590lb ft) of torque. Paired with a Quickshift six-speed automatic transmission, it launches the convertible ‘Ice Speed Record model from 0-60mph in 3.8 seconds (0-100km/h in 4.0s) and reaches 100mph from a standing start in only 9.5 seconds (0-160 km/h in 9.4s).
The additional engine power of the new convertible is the result of fine tuning of the engine to optimise the benefits of the new free-breathing air intake ducts, intercooler system and the exhaust system.
And true to the Bentley tradition of delivering instantly available and exhilarating performance in real world driving conditions, the ‘Ice Speed Record convertible will sprint from 50-75mph (80-120 km/h) in just 2.5 seconds.
In common with its Continental stable mates, the new Supersports model runs on both petrol (gasoline) or E85 bio-ethanol or any combination of the two. Pioneered in the Supersports coupe, this FlexFuel technology offers a reduction of up to 70 per cent in CO2 emissions on a well-to-wheel basis, a measure of a fuels net contribution to the atmosphere, not just tailpipe emissions. The on-board fuel supply system monitors the content of the fuel tank and ensures that power and torque remain constant regardless of the ratio of petrol to biofuel.
The all-wheel drive system provides outstanding traction in all weather conditions. The drive is transferred between the front and rear axles automatically via a Torsen centre differential. The standard 40 front/60 rear torque split provides optimum traction and modulation of line and attitude by throttle steering for more enthusiastic drivers.
The new exhaust system with reduced back pressure benefits gas flow while delivering a sporty baritone note under hard acceleration. On light throttle cruising, the new Supersports model remains impressively refined.
Large diameter (420 mm front, 356 mm rear), carbon ceramic brake discs, with eight-piston calipers at the front provide fade-resistant stopping power. This lightweight system also reduces unsprung and rotating mass, benefiting steering response and handling. As with all Supersports models the ‘Ice Speed Record is fitted as standard with Pirelli 275/35ZR20 ultra high performance tyres.
Dramatically extrovert styling
Just 100 examples of this dramatically styled new model will be built at Bentleys Crewe factory. The Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record is distinguished by its vibrant and muscular styling cues that reinforce the uncompromising performance credentials of this extreme Bentley convertible.
Bentleys designers have selected three ‘stand-out exterior paint colours for the new convertible: Beluga, Quartzite and, fittingly, Arctica White. These colours are complemented by a Dark Grey Metallic soft top with Bentleys refined three-ply composite construction.
The unique appearance of the soft top is created in the outer layer by a grey acrylic fibre with a semi-transparent metallic look in a twill weave construction. The cars potent performance is further accentuated by 20" inch, 10-spoke Supersports wheels with a dark tint finish.
Contemporary luxury craftsmanship and advanced technology
The dramatic character of the four-seat Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record continues in the cockpit in which traditional Bentley craftsmanship and fine detailing are given an even more extrovert interpretation.
Traditional leather hides sit alongside a range of contemporary materials for a distinctly sporting style. This includes diamond-quilted Alcantara to doors, quarter panels and seat facings, and ‘soft-grip leather on the steering wheel and gear lever.
Unique to the ‘Ice Speed Record model, the high-gloss carbon fibre on the dashboard, centre console and roof panel, features a unique red weave. The theme continues with Pillar Box red piping to seats and doors, and Pillar Box Red contrast stitching to seats, door casings, steering wheel and gearshift paddles.
The front seats and floor mats also feature embroidered ‘Supersports legends while the signature Breitling dashboard clock also has a red accent.
The Supersports ‘Ice Speed Record, despite its ice racing pedigree, is clearly no ‘stripped out racer. Its highly specified interior has the highly-advanced touchscreen infotainment system from the new Continental GT that provides rich map imagery and a 30GB on-board hard drive.
An 8-inch screen displays the cars audio system, telephone, ride and comfort settings as well as the very latest navigation system, which uses both an in-car hard-disc drive and a DVD player to access route data. It also utilises dynamic navigation to avoid heavy traffic spots, locates destinations using geo-tagged photos from an SD memory card and is Google Maps-compatible for most markets.
The infotainment system, with 7-digit postcode entry, combines touchscreen controls and classic Bentley knurled rotary switches to offer instant usability. It is complemented by a new driver information panel (DIP) located in the main instrument cluster. The new wide-screen DIP employs TFT technology and enhanced graphics provide the driver with clear and easily accessible information about a wide range of car systems.

How to Test an ABS Speed Sensor
1. Elevate the rear of the vehicle in a secure position with a car jack, and place it on jack stands. Place wheel blocks around the front tires. Remove the rear tires to test the ABS speed sensors.
2. Locate where the engines electrical wiring harness meets the sensors electrical wiring harness. This is generally in proximity and secured around the strut housing in the wheel well in the front and the shocks in the rear.
3. Remove the sensor from its position using a quarter-inch ratchet with an 8- to 10-mm socket, which is generally located by the heat shield on the caliper.
4. Examine the end of the sensor. If it looks like a big fur ball at the end, then too much contamination is disrupting the sensor.
5. Spray the sensor with brake cleaner and wipe with the rag to remove contamination. Contamination on the sensor can send erroneous signals to the computer.
6. Disconnect the engine harness from the sensor harness. Set the voltage meter to Ohms, and connect the positive and negative terminals of the voltage meter to the input and output on the sensor. If the voltage meter registers as infinity, then the sensor has failed and needs to be replaced.
7. Switch the meter back to Volts, if you do not see an infinity in the ohms setting. If the voltage meter reads above 5 volts, it is starting to fail and can cause intermittent problems. If the voltage meter reads below 5 volts, check the knock sensor for corrosion and check the electrical connections leading to the knock sensor.
