VAC Motorsports was established in 1984 as Verna's Auto Clinic operating as a three-man shop specializing in bodywork. By 1987 we added BMW automotive repairs to our many services. It wasn't long before we hit our stride with BMW work and decided we needed more of a challenge, so we entered the racing ranks.

Our first racing endeavor started 1992 overseas in FIA-sanctioned rallies. We built a 1988 VW Golf GTI 16V Group A Rally Car that entered competition in 1994. After two years of hard work, we won the 1996 FIA F2 Group A Championship in the Middle East. 

The following year was another exciting year for us. In 1997, we expanded again, this time by acquiring a long-time neighbor and friend, Milano Engine and Machine. The family-owned and run Milano Engine and Machine was established in 1963. Paul Milano, a partner from the Milano era, is still involved on a full-time basis as Chief Engine Builder and provides many years of experience and technical knowledge to VAC Motorsports. The Milano acquisition was an important one because it helped truly make us a "One Stop Race Shop." It also enabled us to become more competitive in both the sales and racing arenas.

Since then, we have again expanded and now operate a State of the art Body Shop, Full Service Repair shop, Full Engine Machine Shop and provide new and used parts from a facility that covers more than 12,000 square feet. My brother, Armand Salloum, runs our repair and body shop and has the latest in frame equipment and paint technology. He and his team have extensive experience repairing many BMW street cars and racecars. The repair shop has very advanced diagnostics equipment, especially for late model BMWs. There’s no job that is too large or small for this crew.

Our machine shop features the latest and greatest in equipment, including an RMC Boring Mill, Serdi Valve Machine, HAAS CNC Mill, Romi and Kia CNC Lathes along with Solid Works and Mastercam CAD/CAM Software.  This is where we design and build Engines and Drivetrain Components and also design and manufacture our own line of VAC BMW Performance Parts that are used in High Performance and Racing applications around the world.

Our parts department stocks a large variety of BMW Performance Parts along with some truly hardcore Racing Parts.  We should be able to truly meet practically all your needs, so if you don't see what you need, don't hesitate to email us at sales@vacmotorsports.com.

Above all, what is most important is that we have a courteous and knowledgeable staff that is willing to take the time to offer you quality parts and work at a reasonable price. With more than 43 years of experience, we can handle any of your requests.
