Now in the 17th year of the event, the AMSOIL Engine Masters Challenge has grown to become the largest dynamometer racing event of its type in the world, pitting some of the best-known names in engine building against one another in the purest form of motorsports. This year’s event will take place October 1-5, 2018, at the corporate headquarters of JE Pistons in Mentor, Ohio. The AMSOIL Engine Masters Challenge is accepting 10 applicants for each designated class, with all other applicants becoming alternates. Entry fee is $350 per applicant. Using JE Pistons’ SuperFlow dynamometer, each competitor’s engine will be put through a series of tests designed to measure torque, power, and performance, where the best combination of torque and horsepower scores wins the class.
