It's here! We've got a lot of thoughts and opinions on the new Hot Wheels expansion and with this podcast you can absorb those thoughts through your ears. Enjoy!

We struggle to define what a sports car is but we're pretty sure we know one when we see one. We're not convinced by the McMurtry which set the Goodwood hillclimb record. The BMW M3 Touring is interesting, but Nico sees a flaw with the M division design process. The SRO and the FIA are having a battle over GT3 regulations but we've found a simple solution to decide what should be allowed and what shouldn't.

We've finally seen some gameplay of the next Forza Motorsport game. The Hot Wheels expansion for Forza Horizon 5 is official. A friend of the show has made us a cracking livery and we've been at American Speedfest.

There's gossip about the weekend's announcement and so we speculate about the upcoming expansion. Passenger Rosie isn't a big Porsche fan but we're excited about the next generation of World Endurance Championship and IMSA cars. We've even learned all about the new BMW hypercar brake lights so that you don't have to.

We speculate over what could be next in the Forza world with the Xbox showcase just a week away. Nico has a new car (but the Mazda isn't going anywhere yet) and Passenger Rosie is trying to learn to drift on Fortune Island.

We've been out and about at Brands Hatch and Lydden Hill and also staying in and lapping the Nurburgring from our sofa. We speculate about the Forza Horizon 5 expansions and mourn a fiery KTM. Nico reckons Monaco's time is up but we're excited about the Nitro Rallycross coming to the UK.

It's a special end of year episode! We chatter about the world of Forza and also dive in to our favourite stars, cars, and moments from motorsport in 2021.

The community is starting to be frustrated with the problems with playing Forza Horizon 5 online. Even people like Don Joewon Song are speaking out about the multiplayer experience. Nico and Rosie look at the issues from the perspective of a reviewer. Should we have spotted the issues with the online play?

Nico "Beastie" Boyce and Passenger Rosie have opinions on the AFK Goliath and the Willys Jeep. We applaud Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel for their protests. We look ahead to the Qatar Grand Prix and speculate about the longevity of Forza Horizon 5. Nico is dangerously ill with a slight sniffle and Rosie is in the squeaky desk chair today.

Nico is okay with skill point farming but isn't interested in trying the AFK Goliath. Will the game's economy crumble when every rare car is no longer scarce? Does it even matter? Nico also did some drifting with a Big Name Gamer and isn't sure being well-known is all that exciting. He's got the funky new Forza Horizon 5 controller which feels good but is less convinced that the Xbox Series X was a good purchase. You can drive with Nico in game by adding his gamertag beastieboyce, which would be nice of you.
