Shane McGirr’s Lada Riva isn’t your grandma’s rusty relic—it’s a 320-horsepower rally beast built for gravel, not garage storage. Born from childhood tinkering at a Lada garage, his obsession turned into reality when he swapped a blown Honda for a reliable 2.4L that now roars like a monster. Debuting in 2022, it stunned the rally scene by finishing seventh and beating a classic Escort Mk2. With custom suspension, a sequential gearbox, and crewmate Bobby Sharkey’s genius, McGirr’s team races for thrills, not trophies—proving old-school Soviet steel can still dominate modern stages.
