One has to wonder just how the hell an automotive lifestyle brand founded by the late Ken Block wound up over a billion dollars in debt just over a decade after it was founded.

Hoonigan got bought out by Wheelpros a few years ago, and then Wheelpros and Hoonigan merged under the Hoonigan brand. The brand we know likely did NOT have all that debt

I’m from Maine -that counts as “rust free” in my book. Surface rust? Who cares? If you are going to restore it you are going to sandblast and repaint it anyway. The metal is still all there, and it has floors, sills and fenders.

It’s all very anecdotal in the Hard Break-in VS. Easy Break-in debate. Personally, I’m a fan of the harder break in period. I’ve done it with my cars and they’ve been great.

I was thinking Trans-Am.

Modern shops vs. Carburetors is a bit like millennials vs Manual transmissions.  

So they hit 331mph Canadian?

If I had the money I would troll this project by having a one off Ferrari built that looked like Pininfarina’s interpretation of a 2nd generation pontiac trans am. I would call it Il Pollo Dil Fuoco.

And it won't take much photoshopping to turn FANATEC into PONTIAC

There was Fast Masters, where a bunch of old drivers wrecked a fleet of super-expensive Jaguar XJ-220s at Indianapolis Raceway Park.

Look up Defunct Auto Racing Series on Wikipedia. These folks will make a small fortune if they start with a very large one. 

Sounds like a throwback seniors series. If the racing’s good, I’m in.  

“This is a product designed for 2021 and today’s race fan. We’ll have shorter races, with either a 30-minute or 45-minute format. We may have a different crew chief paired with a different driver on a regular basis. We’ll tell the story on television in a unique, funny way. There’s an opportunity to invent a better pr…

I think it’s because there’s so few bad cars and so many good cars.

Awesome car, but only 11s? My 700+hp C5 Vette ran a 10.7.

It’s trashy and cheap.
