R.I.P. - Shaun Carlson

Honoring one of American motorsport’s great innovators.

Today bears sad news from the racing community, with the passing of Mopar’s Shaun Carlson.  Owner of NuFormz racing, Shaun had a very colored history in motorsport. Ranging from building the first sport compact drag car with a tube chassis (and being the first FWD builder to run in the  9’s and 8’s) to racing professionally in both drag racing and drifting. He was a great innovator and person in general, and will be sorely missed.

To see a full list of Shaun’s accomplishments in the world of motorsports, check out his page on the Mopar site.

Nothing has been said yet, but he did have a rare heart condition, and has gotten a heart attack before.

Ladies. Love. Lambos.

We here at 0-60 have conducted a study and the results are astonishing. Women will dress scantily and pose for pictures with a Lamborghini.
