Owner, Scott Shafiroff Racing Engines
If you’ve been around Drag Racing for any amount of time there’s a name that’s stood out in the engine building world for over 40 years…. Scott Shafiroff. He first gained notoriety in the early 70’s with his AHRA/IHRA World Championship GT small block Camaro. When his domination of that field led to the virtual extinction of those classes due to lack of participation he switched to NHRA and IHRA Pro Stock along with some forays into Comp Eliminator. After scoring 2 World Championships, 13 National Event wins and dozens of Divisional victories he hung up his helmet and dove full tilt into the engine building business in 1978. It wasn’t too many years later he started selling some engine and race car parts on the national (and International) stage thru ads in National Dragster. With no formal business background training he learned “the ropes” the hard way and after many missteps he developed a winning formula to being financially successful in the notoriously cut throat engine and parts business.
In this seminar he’d like to offer some business insights and some “rules to live by” to be successful in the engine business today. A must attend for not only the beginners in the business but even the seasoned shop owners that are looking to improve not only their “bottom line” but also their quality of life in this tumultuous field of endeavor.
Who said you can’t teach an old dog “new tricks”?? Not Scott Shafiroff.
