CAR OF THE WEEK

2001 Lola MG LMP 675, driven by Tucker Merten

KnightHawk Racing & Archangel Motorsport Services joined forces to debut this new Lola Mg in the 2002 “12 hours of Sebring.” The racecar was driven by big names such as Jonny Kane, Steve Knight, Mel Hawkins, and even MotorCrush’s Andy Lally. Thank you for sharing this relic of racing history.

MOD OF THE WEEK

APR stage 2 tuned 2007 Volkswagen GTI owned by Dante Pisciuneri

Tuning is a great way to get extra power out of your car. It helps ensure the most hp/torque increases from any bolt-on mods you’ve installed. Dante’s tune allows him to run on 93 octane and doubles his boost pressure from 10 psi (stock) to 20 psi. Want to see the rest of Dante’s build? Check it out on his MotorCrush profile. Just search for his name at the top of the live feed.

CAR BIO OF THE WEEK

“My son and I built it last summer for the ‘Ratrod Magazine Build Off’. We drove it to Grafton Illinois and then to St. Louis to the Shapiro Steelfest.”

– Richard Dant about his 2016 Homemade Ratrod

Now that is some quality father/son bonding right there! Hope you guys had a great time on your cruise. We’re sure this is an experience your son remembers the rest of his life. Hopefully, this hotrod will be tearing up the street for generations to come.
