This One Take was filmed at #GRIDLIFE Motorsports and Music Festival, Gingerman Raceway, June, 2017. For more information about upcoming festivals visit: http://www.grid.life

This 1968 Volvo Amazon is one of our favorite #Gridlife cars. Featuring a Mitsubishi 4G63 Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine from a 1991 DSM (In the video Matt incorrectly says it's from an Evo), a T-5 Gearbox from a Ford Mustang, and a Ford rear-end, this Volvo has what it takes to put down very strong lap times at Gingerman raceway, especially considering its age.
