NICK BURR Crew Chief for Team RPM

Passion drives people to success. It inspires you every morning and at the end of the day it makes you feel like a million bucks.  This is what Nick Burr is all about! 

Nick has been working on cars from a very young age. His passion for cars has made him learn and practice new ways to build, tune and repair a wide array of cars.  People who know him best often refer to him as a “human dynometer”.  He has sensitivity for diagnosing and making almost any racecar better.

“At a young age I would find ways to make toys better”, said Nick “I would look for excuses to tear my bicycle apart and repair it in a way that would make it better.”

Born in Los Angeles, CA he attended the Santa Monica city college where he learned the technical side.  

Nick at the Thriathlon on Motorsports in Las Vegas 1993. We took 3rd place in the BP Class.

Nick talks about his teacher Mike (who had a Pro Stock race car) and claimed that his entire life revolved around his racecar.  Mike said that his car was a wife, a pet and child.  There was little he would like more than his car which Nick found inspiring.  Based on that Nick found that building hi performance motors was what he wanted to do. 

Nick has followed his passion and is now preparing racecars.  He is Crew Chief for Team RPM and in charge of two Mustangs. He has become a key man for the racing team. Not only can he build these cars from scratch but also both drivers depend on Nick to make the right combinations on race day.  Read about the L.A 2000 Street Race, Click Here.
