“All three mains were a little bit different. I was going to stay with the triple-single and it ended up working out. “I just never manned up for the quad, to be straight up. “To be honest I started off a little bit slow and Ken rode really well in that heat race and in the superpole (session),” Tomac said after the race.
KNIGHT RIDER WHO IS DAVID DALTON SERIES
The British Grand Prix featured a lot of names American SX fans know and some they don’t as the new series looks to gain global appeal. In a three-race format that combines points to determine an overall victor, Tomac was perfect by winning all three races. Just think, you can get Da Hoff’s car and then a lifelike model of him to sit next to you in the passenger seat!įollow me a third championship in 2022, Eli Tomac won the British GP inaugural World Supercross Championship (WSX) race in Cardiff, Wales. Oh, and while you’re at it, check out some of the other goodies up for bidding, like Lot 450 – an oversized lifeguard figure model of Da Hoff, starting at just $10k. Talk about a collector’s car, not to mention a conversation piece.Ĭlick here to see the auction link at Julien’s Live of Beverly Hills. The auction for the 1986 Pontiac is starting at only $15,000, with an estimated selling price expected to fetch somewhere between $30,000 and $50,000. Still, the likely price tag isn’t really all that out of reach – certainly not Barrett-Jackson out of reach, for sure. Oh, and we can’t forget to mention that the car carries a custom soundboard that has over 4,000 sound clips from the show – you know, the various things KITT said in its hokey British accent. And it is a virtual double for the original KITT, with one exception: it doesn’t have the famous – or infamous, depending on your perspective – Turbo Boost that the real KITT had.īut it does have everything else you’d expect from KITT, including scissor doors, yoke steering wheel, all the cool exterior lighting you’d come to expect and a custom digital dashboard. While Da Hoff was billed as the star of the series, everyone knows the REAL star was KITT, the black Firebird that seemed to have every high tech gadget known to man.Īnd now Hasselhoff has put up his own personal version of KITT up for auction (well, let’s clarify that – a fan, Jennifer Catano, built it from the ground up and then gave it to the actor as a gift).Įrgo, while it’s not one of the original cars you saw in the series, it was Da Hoff’s, nonetheless.

Remember the Knight Rider series in the 1980s, with pre-Baywatch David Hasselhoff – or as we like to call him, “Da Hoff”?
