PROGRESS TECHNOLOGY - TEAM PROGRESS - STEVE TRACY

Make: Nissan
Model: Sentra SE-R
Year: 1991



Driver: Steve Tracy

Primary Use: Daily Driver, AutoX, Track Days/HPDE’s





Progress Product/Service Testimonial: The Progress Auto components without a doubt make this car what it is – “…a SE-R thoroughly tweaked for corner carving domination.” The tracking and balance in corners is incredible, yet as a “Daily Driver”, it takes some seriously nasty bumps in stride.  With the Progress F&R sways and subframe brace, you can stand this car up on 3 (or less) wheels at any track or AutoX event.  I have yet to see anyone drive this car who did not come away simply amazed with its handling prowess.

Vehicle Accomplishments:

• Sport Compact Car “Project SE-R” – longest running project car
• “Boxcar vs. Jellybeans” Winner – Buttonwillow against a NISMO R-Tune and NISMO S-Tune B15’s, 0.96 g lateral acceleration

Special Thanks:

• To Dave Coleman, for caring enough to make this car what it is today, and to SCC, and all the others who supported the effort. 
• To Dan Johnson, who defined “friend”, by co-driving the 3000 mile sprint from CA to CT, through every condition imaginable, including snow and sleet in PA on summer tires rated “N/A” for snow traction.
