Default CARTEK ***CHANGES and SPECIAL***

We are excited to announce that Cartek is now a 100% family owned business. As of June 6th, 2008 Dave Busch is no longer with Cartek Racing Inc. Sales and management are now run by Julian Hormilla and Maxwell Hormilla. Engine packages, power adder setups, tuning, and engine assembly still remains in Julio Hormilla’s hands as it has always been, so we can still expect the same high level of performance and reliability Cartek has become known for.

In celebration of this milestone in Cartek history we are going to be running a Heads and Cam special. On any stage of Cartek Heads and Cam package sold there will be a $250 discount. Also we will be offering an additional $250 discount off the install bringing your total savings to $500 on any stage of Cartek Heads and cam installed at Cartek. The sale will be running from now until July 11th, 2008.

For any inquiries we can be reached via PM or direct by phone at the shop.

Thanks,
Maxwell Hormilla

I've been a Cartek customer for 9 years and I wish the " new " Cartek the best of luck in the future . Julio is an honest , loyal , stand up guy , a man who's extremely knowledgeable in his field , there are some " great tuners " out there , some of them just know tuning , some know tuning and engine building , Julio knows it all , Tuning , engine building , wiring/electronics etc , the guy could build a car from the ground up by himself if he had to , not many tuners have the all around knowledge he has .

I know Julio and sons , and Roy , Mike , Tim and the " new guy " are all highly motivated and are looking forward to running a better business on all levels , working as a team , like it should be .
