Team 1, BES Racing is experienced at extracting the most from a given combination. At this year's Engine Master Challenge, BES brought the most popular combo of the event, the Ford Windsor/CHI. His engine extracted the most of what this set-up had to offer, finishing eliminations with a higher score than any other team using this combination. The only question in the finals was how far to push the engine to try and take the overall win. With 714 peak hp, the BES entry was a little behind Kaase at the top-end, but they had a definite advantage at the bottom of the rpm range. Bischoff remained cool in the tune-up period, deciding to make minimal tuning changes, and save the engine for the money pulls. The strategy paid off with a solid 1075 score, enough to hang on for the eventual overall win and the title as this year's Engine Master.
