Cannonball One Lap of America sponsor
|
|

|
RockAuto is happy to be the main sponsor for Mike
Stimac in the 2006 One Lap of America.
The racers drive nearly twenty-four hours a day (obeying
posted legal speed limits of course) and make stops
at different racetracks all over the country to compete
in time trial races. The event, as it always has been,
is foremost one of endurance and vehicle preparation.
No support crews are allowed. The tires that are used
on the street are the same ones that are raced on (one
set per team). Although scoring is based on performance
at the race tracks, the vehicles and their drivers must
survive thousands of miles of driving interspersed with
the finest meals available at gas station convenience
stores. Competitors battle fatigue, weather, traffic
and the demands of high-speed competition with both
unknown amateurs and seasoned professional drivers like
Parnelli Jones, Price Cobb, John Buffum, Elliot Forbes
Robinson and Hurley Haywood.

Looking for brake pads for your European car? RockAuto
has added the EURO pad line from Akebono. European car
owners now have a brake pad solution that uses highly
advanced ceramic brake pad technology. This technology
will keep your wheels virtually free from dust and provide
the stopping power you expect.

How do I know if a part is in stock?
|
|
All of the parts in the RockAuto catalog are in stock
unless the part description shows "Non-stock item--shipping
delayed up to x days".

This means our warehouses do not have the part, but
we can order it from the manufacturer--the number indicates
how much time will pass before the part would be shipped
to you. Most manufacturers will ship directly to you
(the 2-day delay covers their time to process the order).
Some manufacturers ship to us and then we re-ship to
you (which causes a 4-7 day delay).

| A Truly Unique Lincoln |

I have a 1986 Lincoln Town Car - that
is so incredibly rare here. This is the only privately
owned Lincoln in Western Australia. The car is in mint
condition with the original paint and has been professionally
converted to right hand drive (the steering box has
been relocated....not the chain behind dashboard trick).
Some parts are available locally, same Ford engine we
used in Australia 20 years ago, but many are not.
I placed an order on a Thursday, and it
arrived here in Perth, West Australia the next week
on Wednesday. Six days to ship parts half way around
the world! Thanks again for your excellent website...really
helps me identify what I need...and thanks for being
so efficient. I can see becoming a close friend of RockAuto
- as any 20 year old car needs some loving care and
attention as things slowly wear out.
Cheers,
Rob Clark
