Mark Burch Motorsports – Back in Black

Mark Burch Motorsports – Back in Black

NEWTON (July 29, 2010) – Consistency will stay the theme for the Mark Burch Motorsports, Chad Humston Racing team. If you take a good look at the past couple of weeks, you won’t see anything less than the definition of consistent. It’s been all about the experience for Chad and the crew, and lucky for them they can’t get enough!

It was back to their home track of Boone County Raceway in Albion , Nebraska for their Friday night show. “With the threat of weather in the forecast, it proved to be just the right choice.” Owner Mark Burch had to say.

After last weekend’s events the team worked this week to get the car fresh and ready; they unloaded the Engler Machine and Tool #1M with a re-freshened engine and the plan was to get it broke in with a few laps before taking it to Knoxville. What a plan that was! Not only did they put a few laps on it, but they also claimed a feature win on their first night out with it.

Saturday night took the team back to Knoxville Raceway for another challenging night. With different faces making their way to town in preparation for the upcoming 360 Nationals and many of the 410 drivers pulling double duty in both the 410 and 360 classes, it would be trials.

Chad started the night qualifying seventh fastest and brought the #1M home with a deserving second place finish in his heat, after a good battle to get there. “The nice part about qualifying seventh is that we would sit on the front row of the A-Main.” Owner Mark Burch said. The Engler Machine and Tool #1M started first row outside for the feature. After a tough start, which put Brian Brown in the lead, you could bet that Chad was chasing him down. Chad was challenged by Garner but managed to wheel the #1M through traffic and within striking distance of Brian Brown. Chad finished the night with a justifiable second place. “We really wanted the win, but second is all we could muster against one of the hottest drivers in the Midwest . Congratulations to Brian Brown and crew. It was a great race” Said Chad .

“We’re going to have to leave this yellow car home. It only knows how to run second here!” Owner Mark Burch exclaimed. So, as the team will have it, they are headed back to Knoxville Raceway this weekend and they will be “Back in Black”. Make sure you get out there to cheer them on as they make a few more laps around the famed half mile, in preparation of the much anticipated 360 Nationals.

Engler Machine and Tool, Inc.
Engler Machine was started in 1980 by Tim Engler. His main line of business at that time was plastic injection molds. Over the years he has diversified very widely leaning more towards "high performance products". He now builds fuel injection systems, custom made pulling chassis, gears, shafts, specialty CNC products, racing engines and some custom machining.

Tim has been involved in tractor pulling and holds 13 national titles in that sport, he no longer pulls himself but has been influential to the success of many other pullers through his advice and building capabilities. He races winged sprint cars when time allows this is something he truly likes and wishes he had more time to do.

Currently, Tim and his staff have been developing a new mini-sprint fuel injection system. There are a handful of these units currently being dyno and track tested with great results.
