Last year Volkswagen set the world of racing on its head with an all electric prototype ID.R setting a new world record at Pikes Peak. With that overall record out of the way, there were no big players at this year's race aiming for an overall record. With the top spot pretty much a foregone conclusion as Robin Schute would be taking an open-top …

Take A Deep Dive Into Bisimoto’s Wild Center-Seat 986 Boxster Track Car
When this 2000 Boxster was purchased new, the owner likely never imagined their 2.7-liter base model would one day become a twin-turbocharged track monster. The mind of Bisi Ezerioha is an incredible thing, because he and his crew continue to build seriously impressive machines, building crazy power with unorthodox methods. There is very little in …

Chances are, if you're reading this site, you're pretty knowledgeable of the history of Porsche, how they became the company they are today, and can recite most of their greatest hits from memory. For some people who have never had the proclivity for the brand, for whatever reason, The Petersen Museum's Porsche Effect exhibit could be incredibly …

This isn't the first time we've seen Jeff Zwart's wild creation thrashed as it was intended. Over the last forty-five years, Jeff has hustled this lemon yellow 914 in a variety of events, though with few giveaways to its true heritage and power, it might fly under the radar of most. However, keen eyes might pick out the telltale badge or the flared …

Leave it to the Hoonigans to find out. Brian Scotto's white 964 is one of the first two car Nakai-San built in the US, the first US-based RWB Turbo, and one of the first RWB turbos after Nakai's personal 930. Brian is no stranger to childish hooliganism in his 964, and this time had to find out if the car could manage a burnout. The attempt …

The latest episode of the [HOONIGAN] series "A Beer With" features Porsche factory racing driver Patrick Long. Very few of us will ever have the chance at a beer with Patrick, so we are grateful to the [HOONIGAN] crew for allowing us one, or three, by proxy. Watch for answers to important questions from Patrick, including how to pronounce …

I'm experiencing a minor love affair with Magnus' 964. Everything about Magnus is extroverted, from his personal appearance to his usual 3-color "boy racer" paint jobs. His 964 is understated by comparison. The paintwork is a simple monochromatic grey, which almost hides the wide array of changes made to the basic 964 shape. From the shaved rain …
Continue to the full articleMeet “The Unicorn” – Hoonigan’s Honda-Powered 911
The Hoonigan folks are a little on the crazy side with some of their builds. If you've watched any videos they've produced, they have some monster high-horsepower cars with wide bodies and giant wheels. Often, the end result is almost a caricature of the car it is based upon. In this instance, however, the car itself looks rather subdued. Yes, this …

This brief discussion with Magnus is actually pretty enlightening. Did you know, for example, that his design ideals are heavily influenced by Captain America, Evel Knievel, and 1950s SoCal Hot Rod culture? I mean, I guess you could have inferred that, but it's interesting to hear it come from the mouth of the man himself. You'll also find out …

Brian Scotto makes more donuts than Krispy Kreme in his RWB 964 called simply "Hoonigan". In this new video short put out by the children-trapped-in-adult-bodies over at Hoonigan, Scotto shreds a few tires in the extra-wide 964 Turbo, which has been appropriately nicknamed "Hoonigan Industries Tire Shredder" or HITS. The matte-white wide-body 911 …
