In this episode, Alex and Howard (newly returned to the West Coast) talk about last weekend's Alumni Gathering in Scottsdale, Arizona; the upcoming California Mille; "racing budget dysmorphia"; the wide array of parts, memorabilia, artwork, and even furniture now available on BaT; current listings catching their eye; the BaT community's ability to discern between good, great, and exceptional; getting some color into your life via car collecting; forced learning about mid-'70s land yachts; an admission of QotW-related guilt; driving cross-country on a borrowed Hudson key; true automotive comfort versus simply not being crippled at the end of a long drive; the scariest corners, both real and digital; and mechanical insubordination.
