Default LG Motorsports New Ownership!

LG Motorsports is officially under new ownership!

Sergio De La Torre has been with LG Motorsports for more than 10 years building and designing the products that make their way to the front of the pack. Sergio has proven to be an experienced fabricator, engine builder, tuner, driver, shop manager, as well as the lead of research and development for many years, and many more to come. From simple maintenance, to strategic advancements, Sergio has made it his goal to exceed satisfaction consistently pushing the standard in performance.

LG was founded and operated by Lou Gigliotti until recently purchased by long time employee Sergio De La Torre. We’re grateful for Lou’s 30 years of dedication and commitment to the racing community and excited to continue the LG Motorsports legacy.

Yes and no. Main reason was to focus on getting his race track built!
