Jon Summers is the Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. On his show he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, motoring travel.

Jon shares an in-depth discussion on the role and technological evolution of LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) in autonomous vehicles. Jon delves into a presentation by Valeo, exploring how LIDAR sensors function as part of an autonomous vehicle's perception system. He highlights that while Elon Musk dismisses LIDAR in favor of other technologies, major German automakers like Mercedes, BMW, and Audi integrate LIDAR with their partnerships. Through anecdotes from a Society of Automotive Engineers event, Jon describes the advances in LIDAR resolution, from early basic units to the sophisticated systems able to detect minute details. The presentation by Raphael, a skilled engineer from Valeo, emphasized the importance of integrating LIDAR with existing automotive systems and discussed challenges such as weather conditions and sensor standardization. He contextualizes this discussion within the history and future trajectory of automotive technology, comparing it to his classic collection of vehicles and bikes.

The Simeone Museum in Philadelphia, PA is proud to present Le Mans 1959 The Underdog Champion, a demo day event celebrating the unlikely and impressive victory by a relatively small and underfunded Aston Martin team. At the time, the 24 hours of Le Mans was dominated by larger, highly financed organizations such as Ferrari and Jaguar, who had access to more advanced technology and greater resources.

Despite this, Aston Martin managed to pull off a stunning upset victory at the 1959 race with their DBR1 piloted by drivers Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby. During this demo day, visitors had the chance to see three of the most popular cars in the museum in action, learn from the team of experts about their design and engineering, and discover more about the intense competition and challenges of Le Mans during the late 1950s.

The featured exhibition included cars like the 1956 Jaguar D Type, 1958 Aston Martin DBR1, and the 1958 Ferrari 250 Testarossa. All car racing in the world, you could argue Le Mans is the biggest race in the world. Indy 500, that could be a challenge, but Le Mans, it's right at the top and it's certainly beyond any other sports car race, even though there are tremendous sports car races.
