2024 Chevrolet Silverado Fox Factory Edition With more than 50-years of racing experience, Fox Factory put its technology towards a collaboration with Method Race Wheels, BFGoodrich Tires, Baja Kits, ARB, RCV and other aftermarket manufacturers to create a 2024 Chevrolet Silverado Edition. The 700-horsepower truck features a wide-body prerunner style and long-travel suspension combined with Chevrolet’s OE-level integration that is backed by a 3-year, 36K mile warranty. Complete with Fox Live Valve shock technology, the Silverado platform uses 3.2 Internal Bypass shock design and Live Valve suspension management system. The Baja Kits long-travel front and rear suspension system increase overall track width by 6” over stock and when combined with BF Goodrich 37-inch AT KO2 tires mounted on Method 17x9 wheels, it gives the truck 14.5” of suspension travel in front and 19.5” of articulated travel in the rear. Power comes from a 6.2L V8 with Whipple Gen V supercharger that produces 700 hp and 640 lbs.-ft. torque that is coupled to a factory 10L80 10-speed automatic. The truck also uses a Dana 60 semi-floating rear axle equipped with an ARB Air Locker, 35-spline chromoly axle shafts and 3.73:1 rear gears. Equipped with Nacho Quatro lighting and carbon fiber fenders, hood, and bedsides, the 2024 Fox Factory Edition Silverado looks impressive and ready for anything you can throw at it. More information on the truck can be found at FoxFactorytruck.com. SCORE’s Competition Review Board Explained ith all of the latest advancements that SCORE has applied, such as VCPs, tracking, and more, it becomes increasingly important for racers to know that the CRB is much more than it was from the past, as the technology is different and more disputes are possible. SCORE’s President/Race Director Jose A. Grijalva wanted racers to understand that there was a way to dispute or protest penalties or disqualifications administered by SCORE officials using a Competition Review Board (CRB). The CRB was established to be a neutral and autonomous authority made up of seven to eight individuals who are not under the direction of SCORE Management. “These individuals are typically current and/or former racers with knowledge of SCORE rules and who also have the perspective of racers based on their extensive experience,” says Grijalva. Rules for filing a dispute to SCORE can be found in the General Regulations sections 3.4.24 (pages 5-10) in the SCORE Rule Book, which states that any protest must be delivered in writing to the Race Director, within the specific time limit noted within the Racer Brief for each event. “ It has to be brought up the day after the race,” says Grijalva. “We try to have the CRB resolve it before it can affect the outcome of the Awards ceremonies after the race, but in some cases, it can take longer. The members of the CRB remain neutral in dealing with any dispute and it can go either way, by fully overturning the decision from SCORE to announcing the decision was correct and is upheld.” “The CRB is not new, as former SCORE owner Sal Fish had this for many years. It was brought back in 2019 and we always want racers to know it’s available for them and that someone other than SCORE will listen to their issue,” added Grijalva. “Racers waiting for a decision from the CRB on their dispute will hear back directly from the CRB.
