Congrats Pete, and all involved!

🏆Still riding the high from winning the postponed Tulsa race hosted by Famoso Dragstrip at the California Hot Rod Reunion. What an amazing rookie season for the KFR team - we are ecstatic we could end the season with a bang!
Thank you to everyone following along for the continued support, and most importantly, thank you to this year’s sponsors for putting faith in our team to represent such esteemed companies.
Lots to learn with so much room for improvement going into next season. Thank you AAFD and NHRA Hot Rod Heritage Series for the opportunity. Thank you to all of the photographers & journalists for working alongside our team to help us provide the best possible coverage for our friends & family far and wide. With that being said, shoutout to Rick Hostage & Peter Cottrell Production’s for the outstanding coverage in the AA/FD class, bringing a new light to Nostalgia Drag Racing.
Last but certainly not least, thank you to every one of our crew members for their hard work and dedication throughout the year. The Kaiser Family put together a super solid team that loves to race hard and has fun doing it. It’s been a pleasure, and we cannot wait for next year! Cheers🥂

John Lipori is sporting Arias pistons and Carrillo rods in his Chrysler 392 hemi powered front engine Top Fuel dragster and is getting this beauty shined up for in a couple weeks.

We offer piston & rod packages from vintage cackle engines to full-blown, nostalgia top fuel dragster and funny car. No difference in design, forging type or hardware choice. We build 'em to take the abuse 💪

Since 1969.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY!
Look familiar? Here’s a magazine ad from 1971 promoting our revolutionary “Thermal Head” crown design. Mr. Arias’ ground breaking heat-transfer theory proved correct, as many of this era’s top racing engine builders swore by this design.

Flash forward 50+ years and you’ll see how ARIAS’ same Thermal dish is still greatly influencing piston designs today.
