From the golden age of American muscle to today’s high-tech horsepower wars, the Granatelli name has been synonymous with innovation, performance, and a relentless passion for speed.
In this episode, we explore the legacy of Granatelli Motor Sports, founded in 1989 by JR Granatelli, son of legendary automotive innovator Joe Granatelli. Building on a rich motorsports heritage, JR helped bridge the gap between classic muscle and modern performance, pioneering advancements in ignition systems, throttle bodies, electronic exhaust cutouts, high-output coil packs, and emissions-compliant engine technology.
Now, the next generation is taking the wheel. Led by JoJo Granatelli, a fabricator, builder, and visionary in the digital era of motorsports, Granatelli Motor Sports continues to push boundaries, bringing together cutting-edge engineering, bold custom builds, modern muscle, and extreme turbocharged performance.
Based in a state-of-the-art, 42,000-square-foot headquarters in Oxnard, California, Granatelli Motor Sports designs, engineers, tests, and builds performance products for racers, tuners, and enthusiasts who demand more from every horsepower.
Join us as we dive into the stories, technology, people, and passion behind a family that has helped shape automotive history for generations. From the streets to the strip, the garage to the racetrack, this is more than a story about performance parts. It’s about family, heritage, innovation, and the never-ending pursuit of more power.
Granatelli Motor Sports — Built on Legacy. Driven by Innovation. Fueled by Horsepower.
