In this riveting episode from Larry Chen, we dive headfirst into the tumultuous world of automotive innovation. Buckle up as we unravel the origins of a company born in 1995, tracing back to the adrenaline-fueled days of the 205 Turbo 16 GRB. But that's just the beginning of this high-octane journey. Fast forward to the roaring engines of the Ferrari F550 GT program, where the team cut their teeth in the competitive arena of the FIA GT Championship. And just when you thought they couldn't push the limits further, they took on the Maserati course program, crafting 8-cylinder beasts for the GT3 championship and engines fit for the GT1 powerhouse, the MC12.

But hold onto your helmets, folks, because we're about to witness some mind-bending engineering wizardry. Enter AT Technica's single-cylinder combustion testing setup, a technological marvel that puts the spotlight on precision and performance. With sensors packed into one cylinder and a separate ECU for each parameter, this setup is a symphony of scientific ingenuity. And let's not forget the separate fuel lines meticulously calibrated for efficiency and safety, ensuring that every rev counts. It's a two-man show to monitor this mechanical ballet, a testament to the meticulous attention to detail required in the pursuit of automotive excellence.

And just when you thought you've seen it all, Larry Chen unveils a hybrid marvel from 2012, the electric P0 P2 configuration that set pulses racing in the world of supercars. But the pièce de résistance comes in the form of a legendary rally car reborn for a private collector's racing dreams. The 1986 GRB era prototype, a tantalizing glimpse into the past, meticulously restored and ready to conquer the track once more. From the roaring engines of yesteryears to the cutting-edge innovations of today, Larry Chen's journey through automotive history is a rollercoaster ride of speed, precision, and unbridled passion for all things on four wheels.
