On the Covers: Associate Editor Justin Cesler captured Ryan Prentiss at Gainesville Raceway while lighting up the tires on his six-speed, turbocharged TA. This month we are saluting more simple and wallet-friendly builds, and at the same time celebrating the upcoming fifth annual LSX Shootout in Indy.
