Fact: I see more JRSC at the track than any other centrifugals.
Fact: I see less JRSC failures at the track than any other centrifugals.



At the 86 Showdown 2 days ago, there were more JRSC cars present than any other FI kit.

Most Reliable Centrifugal SC?

It is however statistically insignificant. Observation and generalizations by a single person does not correlate to most centrifugal SCs at a track are JRSC. Only from Mike's perspective during his visits to his track

Vortech 30k miles and no problems, well maybe some minor issues with the belt but that's a thing of the past (fix it).
Use as DD, weekend solo cross or back roads and looking for the next 1/2 mile.
If you are in for centrifugal SC all of them are stronger than the engine.

wait... how does one experience of having a vortech kit for 30k miles even compare to an observation that there are more JRSC kits out there having less issues. someone's trying to be a troll here...

Hello mike,

That's because in this forum I only talk about this car ( have been 3 frs )
The first one was innovative sc, second ful bown turbo, third vortech.
For hard core track use I have a talon AWD since 1992 and still Runing strong. Of course I have to repair or replace the tranny 4 times, 1 transfer a lot of clutch and 2 engines (that's the car that I learn mechanic with).
Also have a 2 Toyotas, the first one in a old school 22re with all (built engine, stand alone, full suspension and supportive mods) but that one is for off-road use and I really mean off-road. The second toyota I just buy it, is a supra 2jz, I did pay a lot but the car is full built 1300whp that's the 1/2 mile beast.

About track time/miles... Hmmm I start racing at 7 and still compete at 41, that include motocross, cross country, go karts, cars, mountain bikes, road bike and triathlon.
With that been said I could tell you that I do have a personal machine shop and I'm a freak of suspension mods, sadly the frs didn't need much help in that department, but you know that. Only as the rubber get more traction you star to fell the need for some bars.

Anyway I don't do this for a living its just a hobbi.
That's my experience

Honestly take a look at the owners group threads, I have a Jackson Racing SC no problems. The only problems I have read on it are SC units failing, but that was due to an alleged manufacturing issue from Rotex.

As far as kit issues, the only failure I've heard of is people not clamping down piping and having boost leaks.

Read the threads and look for what problems people report.
