Golden Anniversary! Ford Returning to Le Mans in 2016 with all new GT

Back on the attack 50 years after it's 1966 victory

Motorsports provide a lot of outstanding moments. Quite a few stand out as stuff of legend, like Ford taking the fight to Porsche and Ferrari by bringing in a 1-2-3 finish at the 24h du Le Mans in 1966.

Ford will bring the fight again next year with their new GT supercar to compete in LM GTE Pro class. They will compete in both the FIA World Endurance Championship and TUDOR United SportsCar Championship with a two-team, four-car effort – operated by Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates.

We look forward to seeing the GT with it’s Carbon Fiber Chassis and Twin Turbo Ecoboost V6… We only wish it was they used the truly awesome flat plane crank V8 recently debuted in the GT350R.

We’re back from racing everyone, and we’re just catching a moment to breathe since we hit the ground running on return. Grab a seat and check out a few pics from our prep for Drag Wars 2015 in Saint Lucia.

The Build

Race Prep Collage

We’ve been at work on our Skyline for a while now, so most of the larger hurdles had been out of the way well ahead of the competition. Aftermarket intake manifold? Check. Fuel Rail and 550cc injectors? Check. 400lph Fuel pump? On board. T66 Turbo and aftermarket exhaust manifold with custom down pipe? Where did you think we were spitting those flames from? 🙂

F1 Returns

The inaugural race of the 2015 Formula 1 Season took place today in Melbourne, Australia. We won’t spoil the results for those who haven’t had the chance to catch the broadcast as yet, but check out this slick clip from one of our favourite teams on the grid Williams Martini Racing, in association with one of their new sponsors, Hackett.

International Women’s Day

Tribute to the ladies (especially the ones who share our passion!)

A3_Intl_women_tribute

Today March 8th 2015 marks International Women’s Day. Although we at A3 believe that a single day is not enough to mark the importance of woman’s contribution to the world, we’ve decided to make a tribute to a few of the prominent lady legends behind the wheel. Our collage display images of some of racing’s best, past and present.

Michelle Mouton- Also known as “the fastest girl ever”, she is a former WRC driver. With 4 WRC Rally wins and the 1982 WRC vice-champion, she has stood toe to toe with the best in the rallying world. Were it not for mechanical problems in the last race of the 1982 season, she probably would have prevented Walter Rohrl from becoming the first ever two time world rally champion.
