1984 Pontiac Grand Prix LE - 08/06/23

Another not-so-abandoned car for the blog, and one previously mentioned in the 73' Chevelle racecar post - my daily-ish 84' Grand Prix. The 383/TH350 drivetrain inside was originally taken from my dad's Sportsman series car and INTENDED for the Knoxville car, it found its home here - a rustbucket my dad had bought nearly 13 years ago and stored outdoors for 10. I convinced him to drag it out and to work we went, putting spare racecar parts and pieces into it like a Ford 9" rear end, a Stant radiator, and even a tachometer.

It was my high school car and I'm still the owner, and even with our ups and downs, I love this car to death because it reminds me of my dad's old racing days and of countless hours spent in the shop wrenching with him. I love you, dad. Even though you can be an ass sometimes, LOL.

Called “The Iceman” for the way he stays calm and collected under almost any circumstances, Scott Dixon is a methodical driver, knowm to be able to extract the most fuel mileage from his car. A Six-time series Champion, he has earned 52 wins, 130 podiums and 32 poles in his long career. One of the older drivers in the field, he shows no signs of slowing down. He is as competitive as ever, an elder statesman bestowing his wisdom on his teammates.

Off track, he is said to be one of the nicest guys around, family focused but still able to find time for fun with his friends. But early in his career he wasn’t quite as straight-laced as he appears now, known for committing pranks and getting into mischief with Dario Franchitti and Tony Kanaan. Both remain close friends all these years later.

I’ve avoided mentioning wives and girlfriends for the most part in these Lore posts, but one cannot discuss Scott without mentioning his wife, Emma. Outspoken and sometimes brash, Emma has no problem calling out the series and other drivers when she sees what she perceives as an injustice being done to her husband. But she is also very friendly, taking new drivers’ wives and girlfriends under her wing. Her Instagram (especially her comments on other drivers’ posts) can be very entertaining at times.

Fanfic Lore

Historically paired with Dario Franchitti. In groups with Dario Franchitti, Tony Kanaan, and Marco Andretti

His wife, Emma, is his biggest shipper (she seems to pair him with Dario Franchitti and Tony Kanaan most often) and is frequently horny right on social media about him. Because of this, she is one of the rare WAGS that show up in fanfic occasionally.

Top 3 Contenders: EPARTRADE's Favorite Cast Iron Engine Blocks

For racing teams, car parts retailers, automotive professionals, and car mechanics, understanding the nuances of engine blocks is crucial. Enter the robust world of cast iron engine blocks, prized for their durability and strength. Let us explore the top three cast iron engine blocks that have set the standard in performance and reliability.

The Essential Role of Engine Blocks

Engine blocks are the foundational piece of any vehicle's powertrain, ensuring smooth engine operation. In racing, where every fraction of a second counts, the quality of an engine block can mean the difference between victory and defeat. Known for their durability and cost-effectiveness, cast iron engine blocks are a staple in racing circuits and garages worldwide.

The Top 3 Cast Iron Engine Blocks

1. MOTOR STATE DISTRIBUTING

With decades of experience in the performance automotive industry, Motor State Distributing offers a wide range of cast iron engine blocks from renowned brands such as Dart Machinery and World Products.

2. PLATINUM RACING PRODUCTS

Platinum Racing Products specializes in high-performance engine components, including top-of-the-line cast iron engine blocks designed for extreme racing applications.

3. WORLD PRODUCTS

World Products, Inc. has been a trusted name in the performance engine industry for over 40 years, known for their durable and reliable cast iron engine blocks.

Advantages of Cast Iron Engine Blocks

1. Durability and Strength

Cast iron engine blocks are revered for their durability and strength. Unlike their aluminum counterparts, cast iron blocks can withstand higher levels of heat and stress, making them ideal for high-performance applications. Their heavy-duty construction means they can endure the rigors of racing and everyday driving with ease.

2. Cost-Effectiveness

When it comes to cost, cast iron blocks offer significant advantages. They provide a cost-effective solution without sacrificing performance. For racing teams and automotive professionals working within budget constraints, cast iron engine blocks deliver the best of both worlds—affordability and reliability.

3. Material Comparison

Compared to other materials, such as aluminum, cast iron blocks maintain their shape and structure better under extreme conditions. While aluminum is lighter, it lacks the same level of heat resistance and stability, which are crucial in high-performance settings. This makes cast iron a preferred choice for many professionals in the automotive field.

All in All

In racing and automotive engineering, choosing the right engine block is crucial. Cast iron engine blocks are known for their durability, performance, and cost-effectiveness, exemplified by models like the Dart Big M Sportsman and Ford Racing Boss 351.

Exploring cast iron options can enhance engine capabilities, with platforms like EPARTRADE providing valuable resources. Whether a racing professional or automotive enthusiast, understanding cast iron engine blocks helps optimize performance.

Bridgeport Schools Honor the Top Dogs 

The top bulldogs at Bridgeport are setting out to do their school proud in life, and they have earned support from communities in the school district and beyond.  On May 6, administrators and staff at Bridgeport High School joined in recognizing freshmen, sophomores, juniors and graduating seniors during the annual Academic Awards Presentation.  Presenters from myriad organizations including area colleges, the Lansing Sportsman’s Club, the Bellaire post of the VFW, boosters, businesses and community organizations presented scholarships to Bridgeport’s high achievers.  Matt Fuller, commander of the Bellaire VFW, presented $1,000 to Katelyn Hunt whose essay won the Voice of Democracy essay contest.  She placed first at the Bellaire post and went on to place second at the VFW District 5 level, where 22 other contestants were considered. Hunt is heading to the Franciscan University of Steubenville to study marketing.   Robert Weaver of the Bridgeport Rotary Club and Bridgeport Friendship Council made up of all the school district’s churches, presented scholarships based on high top grade point averages to Hunt, to Campbell Kropka who is heading to Ohio University Eastern to study becoming a physician’s assistant, Madison Matusik, heading to Kent State University to study engineering, and DaVonte Smith, going to Rice University to pursue architecture.  Scholarships were given according to criteria including community service and commitment to certain fields of study.  Ed Eberhart of the Barnesville Area Education Foundation presented the Michael and Jane Zunick Scholarship awarded to students in Belmont County majoring in a technical field. Kropka earned this scholarship. She will be going to Ohio University Eastern to study to be a physician’s assistant. She received a scholarship of $4,000 per year for four years.   “It’s very competitive,” Eberhart said, adding only four students earned scholarships. He said Kropka showed determination in overcoming obstacles and a desire to help others. “We received over 20 applicants, that’s from all the different high schools in Belmont County.”  Petty First Class Officer Katharina Tosh of the U.S. Navy recognized KaVone Allison, who was enlisting in the Navy. Hayden Maher, who will be enlisting in the Marines, was also recognized.  High School Principal Jack Fisher addressed the assembly.  “These students have excelled in all areas of the school experience,” he said. Fisher said the students’ dedication in academics, athletics, extracurricular activities and community service have established a “solid foundation” for future success. He reminded students that for success in life they will call on the same qualities that made them successful in school, including dedication, kindness, and the ability to see and seize opportunities. “I know that if you continue to do this, you’ll undoubtably succeed where you go from here.”  Superintendent Brent Ripley called on the freshmen, sophomores and juniors to look to the graduating seniors’ example. He noted they had earned about half a million dollars in scholarships, and their hard word  work has paid off.  “Scholarship day is one of my favorite days of the year because it’s a culmination of everything good about education,” he said. He also mentioned the community’s generosity and support. “We see that bulldog spirit come through.”  Recognition concluded with the singing of the alma mater.  Several seniors commented during the refreshment social afterward.  Ella Molter earned the Irene Mae Kovalik Memorial Scholarship of $1,500, the S.A. Gillette Scholarship of $500, the Robert Ford Wilson Memorial Scholarship of $1,500 and a $250 Academic Wall of Fame Scholarship. She will be heading to Ohio University in Athens to study social work with the goal of becoming a private practice therapist.  “I’ve been going to Bridgeport since preschool and so I know a lot of the people here, and it’s just been a great experience overall,” she said. She recalled pushing through the difficulties of beginning ninth grade during the COVID-19 pandemic. “It’s great to see that my hard work has paid off in the end, and I’m really grateful for all of the scholarships I have received.”  Jaylese Potts earned a Class of 1936 Scholarship of $300. She is heading to the Modern College of Design in Kettering, Ohio to study digital design.  “Bridgeport is a very nice school,” she said, adding the relatively small size allowed for more individualized attention. “I got to know people a lot better, and I got to know the teachers and got to work one-on-one. That really helped open a lot of opportunities.”  She said Jim Davenport’s information technology class was invaluable in imparting skills. She advises freshman to apply themselves.  “You never know what you’re going to want to do, but if you try your best, you’ll always have a chance at something.”  Anthony Gear earned the the $500 Reynolds-Marty Memorial Scholarship, a $1,000 Lansing Sportsman’s Club Scholarship, the $2,000 Henry and Lulu Windshimer Memorial Scholarship and a $250 Wall of Fame Scholarship. He is heading to Kent State University to study aerospace engineering.  “I think Bridgeport does a really good job of helping you build your foundational skills and lead you on to the second part of your life or your education,” he said. “They’re very welcoming. It’s family based. We might not be blood related, but together we seniors are a family now.”  Graduation is set for May 24.  Read the full article
