An announcement for all our valued Master of Motors entrants, competitors, partners, supporters, and fans:

We recognize this is an unsettling time, as the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation is continuing to evolve around the globe. We have closely monitored for months the developments related to the spread of the virus, and our priority remains the safety of our employees, suppliers and customers as we take guidance from public health authorities. After recent event consultation from our public health authorities, our human resource team, and our legal department, we have had to make the difficult decision to postpone our 2020 competition until 2021. We had sincerely hoped that by now we would have a safer and clearer road map which would guarantee we could safely execute the Masters of Motors event in Mentor, OH in 2020, unfortunately that is not the case.

During these unprecedented times, we appreciate your understanding and we sincerely look forward to making the event bigger and better in 2021.

A special thank you to all our partners that committed their support leading up to this difficult decision. We can't wait to make 2021 the event of a lifetime!

Tune in for our 2019 Masters of Motors SEMA episode, featuring David Freiburger, Brian Lohnes, Mike Kojima, and Steve Brule'! The boys combed the floors of the SEMA show to find the best engines for each of our classes

14/12/2019

JE Pistons and AMSOIL have joined forces to support engine builders with a new, engine-focused event. AMSOIL Masters of Motors presented by JE Pistons will be a dyno-based competition hosted at JE’s Mentor, Ohio manufacturing headquarters and will feature one of the largest purses in recent dyno competition history.

“We are excited to continue the legacy of dyno competition and to welcome the fraternity of engine builders into our home,” said JE Pistons President, Sean Crawford.

The event will be run in JE’s Research and Development lab on their in-house dyno and will consist of a two-class format with a total competitor count of 25. The tentative event date is slotted for October 2020 and class rules and other specifics will be announced this January.

“AMSOIL is proud to partner with JE Pistons to continue promoting the art of engine building and showcasing the best engine builders in the business,” said AMSOIL Product Manager, Len Groom. “We are excited about the future of this contest.”

Industry involvement for the event has been overwhelming with top companies instantly recognizing the value, legacy, and opportunity of dyno competition, engine building, and on-the-ground interaction with the nation’s top builders.

“We are appreciative of JE Pistons for taking on this effort, so we wanted to support it and the teams that want to compete,” said Bill Tichenor, Director of Marketing at Holley performance Products.

In addition, AMSOIL Masters of Motors presented by JE Pistons will feature a livestream video feed and be open to all automotive media outlets with coverage planned from HOT ROD and Engine Labs, with more publications and digital media creators expected.
