Tony Salloum, the founder of VAC Motorsports, is legend of BMW racing and tuning. He builds and sells some of the finest parts you can put on your race car. We sat down with Tony at The Performance Racing industry Show to understand how he got into cars, racing, and how he started VAC Motorsports.
We talked about how Tony first got into cars at his father's shop as a kid and how he ran the family food truck and restaurant. Then at age 19, Tony’s started his first auto-body shop and really started learning how to build cars and race cars. We talked about his first rally car(not a BMW) and this uncle’s auto-body shop and his BMW 635csi in the hills of Jerusalem. The story is fascinating. Tony builds and sells some of the finest parts for race cars, but the story of how he got started is even better!
