  • In May 2019 Peter Ternström and Björn Lagercrantz set a record time on the Nurburgring in a Tuk Tuk from Bangkok. Here is the incredible story, from idea to crossing the finish line with a record lap time. Video: Luca Brunetti. WWW.GRANTURISMO.ORG

    there's any number of garages all over Thailand that can rebuild a tuk tuk engine, no need for special parts from Sweden. I'd guess that you could have bought a whole new engine and had it shipped quicker and cheaper.

      We tried this path but failed. We even tried to purchase an entire replacement engine, but it was too difficult.

    This record is 100% BULLSHIT --- in a few of the shots you can clearly see they are running non-DOT slicks and they ADMIT to having custom pistons machined in Sweden so this is no more legit that when Jim Mero puts a cage in a street car and it "accidentally" stiffens the chassis!

    what a clownish waste!
    you had fun, and just that. had you invest on fitting a big motorcycle engine, the tuk tuk would embarras many cars... be men! be real! and get the most of this great toy!
    or just buy a thai tuk tuk instead of a indian bajaj (which is strong but slow)
