RSIMSD Support Trailer-Tractors instead of Dragsters

Over the years, many NHRA participants have become accustomed to getting parts checked out, tested and diagnosed at any of the national events. We always enjoy the opportunity to work directly with the customers and support the racers however, our tech trailer will not make it to the Brainerd NHRA event this year. For racers, please see us in Seattle or at Indianapolis!

The weekend of August 18-21, the RSI Trailer will be headed to the National Tractor Pulling Association Nationals in Bowling Green, Ohio for the weekend.

Sorry for any Inconvenience

After one of the worst winter storms El Paso, Texas has seen in decades MSD Ignition was forced to shut down for three days last week. We know that this has been some inconvenience to our customers as they have tried to place orders and get answers to technical questions. We apologize to anyone who was unable to reach the company during those days. We always do our best to make notice in as many places as possible when the offices are shut down, such as for holidays, but during this weather emergency we were unable to get the word out as much as we would have liked. Our offices are now fully open with no expectation of further weather interruption and we look forward to serving you.

MSD voluntarily shut down on Wednesday, February 2 for the safety of our employees as the snow hit the city that morning and the night before. After the snow, record breaking cold temperatures set in and the desert city realized just how unprepared it was as water pipes froze, rolling blackouts began, and natural gas line pressure ran low. With all of this happening MSD decided to remain closed on Thursday, February 3 and only work a partial day on Friday, February 4. The decision was made for MSD to shut down for the safety of our workers first and foremost. The closure also gave time to make repairs to burst pipes in our employees’ homes as well as in our manufacturing facilities. Even a week after the storm hit, El Paso is under a boil-water advisory and is just starting to get back to normal.
