[01/22/2001] Halprins, Grebeck to take on NMRA
By: -
The midnight oil burns in this suburb of Detroit, MI where Steve Grebeck and his talented crew of fabricators are putting together some of the wildest race cars to grace North American drag strips. Specializing in the fastest streetcar arena, some of the top drivers have come to Steve Grebeck Racecraft Engineering to have their dreams turned into reality. Currently on the books are cars for Pat Musi, Randy Eakins and Ross Stomp along with six others. Business has not been better for thirty five year old Steve but what makes the whole story more amazing is the fact he also has time to drive racecars as well. The year 2000 saw Steve partner with Leo Utley of Georgia and his ''94 Pontiac Firebird, the result was the pair came away with the NSCA Outlaw Street championship. Steve also drives the Halprin Family Mustang that ran some awesome numbers in 1999. 2001 looks to be even busier as the Halprins have commissioned a 2001 Mustang to take on the PRO 5.0 field in NMRA; the car is coming along well and is ready for tunning as of writing. To help develop the car Steve and the Halprins have decided to invade Canada and take in some of the Top Sportsman events at the Grand Bend Motorplex. Leo Utley wanted to take their success and move on into the IHRA ProMod class with a 2001 Corvette but Steve''s heavy workload means that is postponed to 2002. Steve and Leo will continue to field Leo''s ''94 Firebird in NSCA Outlaw Street throughout 2001.
Funding for both ventures come from the respective car owners so Steve is ready to offer a two for one package to any prospective sponsor. Invest in one package and coverage will be provided on both cars. Help on this front is coming from Ecosse Motorsport of Oakville. ON, Canada who are trying to put together some deals for both cars. Ecosse Motorsport are also working on a website for Steve where he can debut his new Extreme Technology drag race components. For further information or details, contact Ian Rae.
