Godzilla sheds its metal skin for carbon. Garage Active Japan unveiled their new all carbon wide body R32 GTR at SEMA 2021.  The car is powered by an RB28 HKS stage three stroker motor which reportedly boasts 1300hp with just over 3000 lbs in total body weight. Kazushige Sakamoto, the (mad scientist of a) man behind the creation, imported the car all the way to the US to make its official debut at the show. The GT-R specialist has gained a well-earned reputation of not only building the craziest Skylines but also with the quality of carbon fiber work given to his cars. Aside from the meticulously laid carbon mesh that ensured rigidity and stability of the composite body, the proper fitment of the panels and the accuracy of every millimeter contributed to the aesthetic appeal of the car. The precise measurement of each panel gave the impression that it came out the factory as is. Moreover, the carbon body panels provided weight savings of approximately 245 lbs. The R32 has also been ado

This is perhaps the fastest and lightest championship race car ~dirty~ money could buy. Here’s your chance to own an SCCA-winning 1000HP all-carbon-fiber Porsche for a steep discount and a shady backstory. This one-off race car, infamously known as the “Hurricane,” was based on a 2001 Porsche 996 Turbo and was previously owned by the convicted businessman and racing overlord, Scott Tucker. The championship-winning race car is poised to fetch between $145,000 (P7.3M) and $205,000 (P10.3M) when it goes under the hammer via RM Sotheby’s at Le Castellet, France this November. Putting it at such a price point is considered a “steal” for auctioned motorsports items. To put into perspective, the same auction house estimated an SCCA-raced 1955 Porsche 550 to be between $3,800,000 (P192M) to $4,200,000 (P212M). The real intrigue with the car is not the brand, the sum of its insanely engineered race parts, or the motorsports legacy that comes with it. Part of the reason why this car holds a cert

After 60 years in the motorcycle racing industry, the company has earned 500 victories and 82 titles.   2021 marks a major milestone for Yamaha. The Japanese motorcycle manufacturer   has commemorated its sixth decade of competing in the world stage of grand prix racing, and they have done so with style. This year saw the company release a complete lineup of new motorcycle models dressed in their traditional red and white livery—a homage to their motorcycle racing heritage. Yamaha proudly marked this achievement by gracing their current professional competition superbikes, headlined by the R1 and the performance model M1, with the aforementioned livery. Both models are set to compete at the highest levels of MotoGP in their respective classes. The company also released the same colorway for the R3 and R7 models to cater to the enthusiast market. Meanwhile the underbone category, led by the new Sniper and Aerox models, would also be minted with the same touch for a proper salute to th
