TORQUE CONVERTER HISTORY

Jason Hamstra had two clearly defined goals headed into qualifying for the ADRL Quarter-Max Memphis Drags. He wanted to first ensure he qualified safely within the sixteen car Pro Extreme field. Once there he wanted his team to be the first to run over 200 miles per hour in the eighth-mile with a torque converter-equipped doorslammer.

Hamstra succeeded on both counts, which came as a pleasant surprise.

“We had it set up pretty lazy because of the forecast for Saturday,” Hamstra said. “We are pretty happy that it ran 200 miles per hour.”

The 200 mile per hour run didn’t totally catch Hamstra off guard.

“By half track, I felt like the car was moving,” Hamstra said. “I knew it was going to run some speed but I didn’t know it was going to run that fast. I felt before the car ever got to the other end of the track that it was making some power.”

Hamstra runs a Coan converter with a Lencodrive transmission.

Hamstra has long been a runner on the NHRA and IHRA series, but this year he’s bolted on a screw blower to improve his chances in ADRL competition.

“It’s all totally different and the tune-up is different,” Hamstra said. “It took a little while to get it figured out but I believe we have a pretty good handle on it.”
