Cremaster Racing Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Cremaster Racing ...Google it. First off, the car! 1979 Datsun 280ZX ($700 on craigslist) It has been through 5 races so far in 2 seasons, with one 4th place finish (lucky). The car has been through a lot, it had all the typical Japanese steel rust issues and we have spent a lot of time getting it rigid enough to keep the seat from falling through the floor (again). We are in the process of swapping in a more modern RB20DET after we realized that we can't compete on the straights.

Since they have been too busy to reply I will help them out. They still have the Z but it is in need of a few new or rebuilt motor parts. Seems they did a motor swap with a very common motor which spun a rod and no cranks available on this side of the world. They hope to get it fixed and back out in a year or two :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do still have the 280 and plan on having it return for a couple of races for this season once the engine is fully sorted out. Until then, however, we plan on running the Miata for the beginning of the season and the 24-hour in Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cremaster Racing Posted February 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 Thank you very much! Once in a while, someone will get it and it makes our day. Our cremaster muscles get quite a work-out up here in Minnesota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0329 Posted September 9, 2020 Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 It's been a few years since this was posted, but I was in Rosemount Minnesota at the DCTC "Driving Range" and I saw a mini van ripping around the track called the GNARHALE. I took a picture of it cause i thought it was awesome and i was just looking at it when i saw cremaster racing sticker on the back. I just figured i'd look it up and i fpound this forum. Does it belong to you guys by any chance? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slugworks Paul Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Haven't seen them racing at all this season, seems like they're too preoccupied with street driven crapcans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cremaster Racing Posted September 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Gosh, we're popular right now.

Does it belong to you guys by any chance? That is one of our team members, yes. The Mighty GnarWhale was our inaugural Jalopy Olympics Champion and is currently being set up for ice racing and drifting. Is it dumb? Yup. We love it anyway. I did have my second kid and the Covid stuff reduced our schedule to just one (Road America) in October. This winter's plans are to get the RB20DET Datsun up and running for hill climbs/ice racing, maintain the Miata in Champcar, and host the 2021 Jalopy Olympics this next year as it was a LOT of fun and very cheap to do.
