In this riveting episode of Donut, the team takes us on a wild ride through the highs and lows of their latest automotive escapades. From transforming a humble $500 work truck into a jaw-dropping $100,000 desert racing beast, to pushing the limits of a budget-friendly E36 drift car with a monstrous 600 horsepower 2JZ engine, these guys are living life in the fast lane. But as they say, with great power comes great responsibility, and the team faced their fair share of challenges along the way.
As they recount their desert racing adventures, the Donut crew sheds light on the hefty costs and unexpected hurdles that come with building a top-tier racing machine. From broken radius arms to shaky components and pesky alternator issues, the team battled through it all to emerge victorious in their class. But the road to success was anything but smooth, with lessons learned and valuable insights gained for future builds.
Switching gears, the spotlight shifts to the unique low rider Miata, a true gem in the Donut collection. With its custom features and vibrant personality, this car embodies the spirit of Los Angeles' iconic low rider scene. And let's not forget about the high low Mustangs, where the team struck a balance between budget constraints and high-performance goals, resulting in a thrilling season of drag racing antics. As they reflect on their achievements and look ahead to future projects, one thing is clear - the Donut team is revved up and ready for whatever automotive adventures come their way.
