Congratulations to Strange Engineering on their 50th anniversary!<\/p>\n
What started as a small operation, with Bob Stange making suspension parts for friends in his mom’s garage, has grown into an industry leading manufacturing company housed in a 120,000 square foot site.<\/p>\n
Bob Stange made his mark in the performance industry when he helped Chicago racer Chris “The Greek” Karamesines build a rear-end that would withstand the abuse of his Don Maynard tuned Top Fuel car.<\/p>\n
“I called Bob one night after I broke another rear-end and needed one right away to make a match race,” recalls Karamesines. “He came over to my shop and worked all night to build me a new rear-end. I never broke that rear-end and I still have it. I’ve never used anything else but Strange components since.”<\/p>\n Other Chicago racers that depended on Bob Stange include Austin Coil and the Chi-town Hustler group. Bob Stange has always given back to the sport of drag racing by sponsoring many drag racers over the years.<\/p>\n 50 years later, the family owned business is still based on principles the company was founded on: “quality product, quality service and a true enthusiasm for the performance industry.”<\/p>\n Keep an eye on Strange Engineering’s official website, www.racestrange.com<\/a>, for your chance to get in on special promotions as they celebrate 50 years of “fueling the passion for the sport of drag racing!”<\/p>\n![\"Bob](\"http:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Bob-Stange-1965.jpg\")
