Mangling Bollards At An F1 Race

Published: 21 March 2024

Misty isn’t moist but Tim is damp. A Chinese EV-prototype is built on the last remnants of Saab‘s engineering and we’re OK with talking about unsprung mass. Misty updates us about what’s going on in F1, including the latest indignity suffered by Phil the bollard, female progress in F3, and Danica Patrick’s anti-progress comment. We discuss problems with tow trucks and get into price-differences for auto parts and what you’re really paying for. Grand Trivia Auto keeps on truckin’! And if you’re a manufacturer of bollards, please sponsor us!

Big News with With Loxley Brown

Published: 19 March 2024

Dave is abnormally normal, Mickey and Misty have power washer issues, and Ben may have had a close encounter with an airbag. Loxley Brown joins us to share all the news about the big things happening with Athena Racing, but not without giving Dawn an awkward moment of silence. Loxley’s big news is that her girls get to go to Indianapolis Motor Speedway and see how everything works behind the scenes and meet some drivers. Big props to DHL for making it happen! Athena Racing/Club Athena is an excellent STEM college-sprep program for girls that you should check out and support! They’re doing great things. We also discuss what foods we have in our cars’ gloveboxes.

I Am No Longer Infected

Published: 14 March 2024

We welcome Bob Hall back to the show! Misty is knitting a gay blanket, and Tim gets us going with a very technical trivia question about a fictional car. Bob has lots of interesting perspectives about product planning and new vehicular technologies while Misty has a moment about her MX-5, Dave’s car is DAMN WOKE!, and Mickey wants a pocket-nuclear weapon. Ben is stuck in traffic. Bob knows a thing or two about ’58 Plymouths.

Lookin' at Corvettes with Richard Prince

Published: 13 March 2024

We speak with professional photographer and author Richard Prince about how he turned his love for cars into a career. His new book – Corvette 70 Years: The One and Only – covers all 8 generations of America’s first sports car and he talks to us about how his passion for Corvettes started, his favorite cars and what’s in his garage (not all of them are Corvettes!). We also find out what car is too valuable to race, who Richard’s clients are, and what kind of outlaw Richard is (or is not). Misty wants to go to Spa, and we’re not talking about hot-tubs. Mickey has serious camera-envy. Richard has done a lot of fun things and has been to a lot of cool places and we wish we had all day to talk about it! If you’re interested in Corvettes, you need his book.
