High-Resolution FLIR Camera Brings Science to the Racing Track

Engine pre-heating systems are becoming an ever more valuable asset and even a competitive advantage on today’s car racing tracks. Many racing professionals acknowledge the value of this technology, because it helps them prevent engine wear, poor performance on the track and even the loss of hard dollars. Hot Products Engineering, a US manufacturer of pre-heating engines, puts a lot of effort into spreading the gospel about engine pre-heating. The company now also uses thermal images taken by a FLIR camera to show the value of its engine pre-heating products.
