Lothringer Pre-Runner Project
Our latest project is the construction of a Lothringer 4-seat "Pre-Runner", powered by a race prepped/modified Subaru EG-33 6 cylinder engine. We intend to build a "light weight" 4-seat pre-runner rather than "just another" of the "LS V8" powered pre-runners that seem to be the norm. We've worked with Kent Lothringer over the years; we have lots of Lothringer parts on our Baja 1000 class winning 5/1600 car and have admired (lusted after) his cars since we started our racing adventures! After looking around to see what was available and for what price, we settled on Kent's 4 seat pre-runner chassis as the basis for our project. We took delivery of the bare chassis in September, 2018 and after several years of designing, fabricating, problem solving and assembly, our pre-runner is finally finished! This has been an enjoyable "family project" that truly involved all of us along the way. With construction complete and the engine tuning done, we're ready to get out to the desert and play with it!
