Petsky Prunier is pleased to announce it has advised New Digital Group, Inc. on the sale of Motortopia to an affiliate of Beckett Media LLC.

Motortopia is a leading online social network providing interactive tools to the motor enthusiast community.

Based in Dallas, Beckett Media is one of the leading publishers of sports and specialty market collectible products in the U.S. Beckett operates Beckett.com and is the premier publisher of monthly sports and entertainment collectibles magazines. The acquisition of Motortopia extends Beckett’s reach in the motor enthusiast category and adds an established online community and social networking platform to its media portfolio.

A team from Petsky Prunier, led by Michael Petsky, served as exclusive financial advisor to New Digital Group.
