The weekend is almost here! The Kevin Moffett Racing team has a full schedule.

We will start out at Farmer City Raceway friday night as Kevin continues the campaign for the track championship. Kevin is currently in second place, so come out and cheer Kevin on for a good finish as he continues to move up the point standings.

On saturday KMR will travel to the Spoon River Speedway in Canton Illinois. Should be some good racing there.

As always, if you can't make it to the track, you can follow updates during both races on our Twitter page.

Thank you to all the sponsors, Pivot Point Services, Custom Auto Body, Status Audio, Kinetik Racing Battery, and Jam Graphix, For all your support.

See you at the track!!

Kevin Moffett Racing finishes 4th at Farmer City

April 17,2009 (Farmer City, IL) Kevin Moffett spectacular at Farmer City Raceway

After some mechanical difficulties in the heat race, Kevin Moffett started 13th in thefeature. Lap 7 Moffett had moved up to 7th and was forced to spin  in turn 3 as two cars tangle in turn 2.
After the red flag with 13 to go Moffett continued to pass cars and finished with a 4th place finish.Great run for Kevin Moffett and the KMR team.

New Cryogenic Treatment Service for Racing Components Improves Performance

The Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc. announces a new cryogenic treatment service that is specially tailored for racing and other high performance enthusiasts. This service uses the slowest ramps and the longest hold at -300F in the cryogenic treatment industry.

Worcester, MA, January 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc. announces a new cryogenic treatment service that is specially tailored for racing and other high performance enthusiasts. The latest developments are the result of the company’s continuing commitment to meet the needs of the competitive motorsports market.
“We believe that our new treatment profile for motor sports customers provides the greatest control and longest duration of any cryogenic treatment process available”, stated Robin Rhodes, President of the Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc. As the company’s founder, he has worked closely with several race teams that have become world-record holders in their performance classes for motorcycles and modified stock cars. Others, including boat, ski mobile and kart racers, have been victorious in national, regional and local contests. “Cryogenic treatment of engines, drivetrains, and brake systems results in better performance, increased output and longer part life that helps race teams win more races”, added Rhodes.

The process of cryogenically treating auto parts has become widely adopted in professional racing circuits. Racing teams that compete in NASCAR, Formula 1 and other international racing circuits have been using this technology for years, usually behind closed doors in their very private - and pricey – professional motor shops. “Our Nitrofreeze® cryogenic treatment service modifies the metallurgical microstructure of critical racing components so that recreational racers can have the same competitive edge as the World’s leading professional race teams.”, Rhodes stated.

In practice, stock, modified or custom components are sent to the company’s processing lab in Worcester, Massachusetts, where they are subject to the proprietary Nitrofreeze® cryogenic treatment process. After treatment, the parts are returned to the racer or mechanic for any additional modifications and final assembly. Common parts for cryogenic treatment include all engine components, such as cam and crank shafts, pistons and rings, connecting rods and engine blocks. Drivetrain components, including clutches, gears and shafts, and brake rotors are also widely treated.

Cryogenic treatment of racing parts benefits the components in several ways. First, residual stresses from part fabrication are removed, greatly reducing distortion, warping and fatigue failures that are caused by crack propagation of stress lines. Second, steel components adopt a uniform grain structure, eliminating imperfections that improve thermal properties such as heat dissipation. This also reduces the coefficient of friction to produce less drag. Lastly, modifications to the microstructure improve toughness, increase part stability, and greatly enhance wear resistance. “By using our Nitrofreeze® cryogenic treatment service, racers can get increased horsepower and extend the high performance life of critical components, ensuring that they can finish the race, despite the grueling demands that race conditions create”, according to Ryan M. Taylor, Product Marketing Specialist at Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc.
