Build a record breaking drag car in 57 days? No problem! Where others see the impossible, @EmeliaHartford sees opportunity. A successful actress, content creator, entrepreneur, record-breaking performance car builder, and race car driver, Hartford doesn’t shy away from a challenge.
This is not her first record breaking build, a few years ago she took her fans along for the ride as she set out to build the world’s fastest C8 Corvette Stingray, sharing the highs and lows with her online following. The twin turbo C8 rose to the challenge, posting 9.41 on the quarter-mile at 144.94 miles per hour, which was later broken by FuelTech Founder and CEO @AndersonDick.
Beating the record of 1,300 horsepower, held by legend Chris Forsberg, was the goal. Did Emelia Hartford and the FuelTech engine tuning team beat the record? No, they CRUSHED it!
Emilia Hartford’s Nissan Z project may have had a tight deadline, but her team went all out on this impressive build, leaving little of the stock Z remaining. Custom plumbing delivers the airflow to feed monster Xona twin turbos and installed a 3.8-liter VR38 engine from @CicioPerformance with stock heads in a stock block built out with a rotating assembly, CNC ported heads, and GSE valve train. The all wheel drive Z was converted to rear wheel drive with the independent rear suspension swapped out for a solid rear axle.
FuelTech’s FT600 ECU is the engine management system of voice for this build with 2 NanoPRO wideband O2 sensor controllers for closed loop fuel management. The FTSPARK-8 high-energy capacitive discharge ignition (CDI) provides the massive spark energy to feed high horsepower builds and the FT Input Expander ensures that there are plenty of input channels available. Finally, FT Injector 240lb/h fuel injectors handle the methane fuel vehicle ensuring linearity, repeatability and accuracy for all cylinders.
Hartford’s talents are not limited to the track and garage. She has racked up some impressive credentials appearing on Discovery Channel’s “Young Guns” and Netflix’s “Fastest Car.” Her brand, Return to Life, RTL, offers apparel and accessories while Hartford Limited Car Care offers high quality automotive care products. Both business ventures advocate for “mental health, car culture, and a positive life.”
