COBB Tuning Sponsors Bonanni Motorsports!

COBB Tuning · 03-16-2010, 07:27 PM

As part of the festivities at the Redline Time Attack Series, Bonanni Motorsports will be showing their 370z showcar at all West Coast events. This car features a whole host of go fast parts, including the COBB Tuning AccessPORT! While the car will not be racing, it does show what can be achieved with Nissan's sportscar on a reasonable, real-world budget.

"My goals with this car are to show the public what can be done with this platform with a real world budget," said Mike Bonanni. "Although it will not actually be competing in time attack events due to my obligations as a driver for the Berk Technology race team, this car is still being built with fast lap times in mind. I have helped many companies develop and test new performance parts for the 370Z and plan to continue using this car to help pioneer the 370Z performance aftermarket so the everyday consumer can have access to proven effective parts like the COBB Tuning AccessPORT."

See the Bonanni Motorsports 370z starting March 27th at the first round of the Redline Time Attack at Buttonwillow Raceway!

It serves a purpose! Outstanding, I have an AP, love it. Now when is Cobb going to post maps on the site?

Grats Mike!

Thanks everyone and especially COBB Tuning! Can't wait to start playing around with the AccessPORT. I have seen what COBB Tuning can do first hand through years of competing against them in Time Attack and I am glad to be on their side.

As for the wing...it was built to the extent of what is allowed in the Redline Time Attack Street Tire RWD Class. At the time Kognition Design and I sat down to make this thing come to life I was building the car for time attack competition so I wanted as much wing as the rules would allow for the most performance. Sadly, life happens, and the car ended up not being able to compete this upcoming season so now I guess its technically "rice" since the car will be just used for display purposes. Oh well... If I had to choose one word to describe my direction in choosing my mods like the COBB AccessPORT and massive Kognition Design wing for this car it would be this...
