      • Hydrogen Trucks Through The Lens of a 9 Year Old

        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.

        In this episode, Jon and his son Oliver delve into the world of hydrogen trucks during a visit to the Port of Oakland. They attend a presentation at a hydrogen fueling station, learning about the environmental benefits and challenges of hydrogen technology over traditional diesel and battery-electric trucks. Jon and Oliver explore the technical aspects of hydrogen refueling and compare Hyundai and Nikola trucks, discussing their design and potential in the trucking industry. The insights from various experts highlight the importance of hydrogen in achieving zero-emission goals.

        • Jerry Reed - East Bound and Down
        • J & Son attend the opening of the world’s first big rig hydrogen station, with associated government and electric truck razzamatazz
        • The Press Conference and a digression on nomenclature
        • What colour is “pickle”? An existential discussion
        • The First Element dude
        • The Carb Lady
        • The Hyundai dude (with the waistcoat that rode up)
        • A Good Question from the LA Times; how clean is the wrap around technology?
        • The Cummins rep and people who leave the rock show before the encore is over
        • J’s digression on getting stuck in muddy car parks at Silverstone, and sleeping in the company Vectra
        • O’s digression on his favorite car - Texaco/Havoline Porsche 962 and Joe’s Soft Serve
        • “The Science Bit”, which J didn’t understand “A dude with a beard and no hair…..and a bunch of pipes in a shipping container”
        • O operates the Actual Gas Pump for Hydrogen
        • O mocks his father’s skills with Podcastle
        • True Zero
        • Hyundai
        • Nikola - which requires a different pump attachment to “hydrogen up”
        • J chat’s with Hyundai rep: “why now?” 
        • Hydrogen is not competing with Diesel, rather with BEVs for last mile/fixed routes, because - 
        • 400-500 miles range (diesel trucks might do 800/day)
        • Better Payload
        • Faster refueling
        • Better vs. natural disasters
        • The hydrogen station as a single point of failure; may work for some fleet applications, but not right for over the road owner driver truckers
        • Visual bait and switch - looks like a cabover sleeper truck, but actually what looks like the sleeper hides the hydrogen tanks/. Which “look like missiles”.
        • “If California is to meet it’s zero emissions goal in 2046, hydrogen must be part of the solution”
        • So how fully baked is this? J was less convinced after a drive around the Port of Oakland and chatting with real truckers
        • O reviews the two trucks; Nikola seemed far more wholistic, next generational design, while the Hyundai felt more of the parts bin special it is.
        • The game changer of one pedal driving; O feels he could drive it, J feels we are very close to autonomy
        • The challenge is clearly around the delivery of hydrogen, not the trucks
        • J feels soon the smell and noise of diesel will soon be like cigarette smoke in bars - recently gone, and already forgotten

          • How TV Changed Racing Forever: The Thrill, the Tragedy, and the Transformation

            This episode of The Logbook, our History of Motorsports series, features freelance writer Preston Lerner discussing the impact of television on motorsport from 1964 to 1973. Drawing from Lerner's upcoming book 'The Deadliest Decade,' the talk highlights how early television broadcasts, notably ABC's Wide World of Sports, began covering automobile racing, significantly expanding its reach and attracting commercial sponsors. The presentation touches on key events and figures that shaped this era, the mixed reception from enthusiasts, and the controversial focus on accidents. It also notes the gradual improvements in safety prompted by these broadcasts. Lerner concludes by reflecting on the dual-edged nature of television's influence, emphasizing how it both popularized and commercialized the sport while inadvertently spotlighting its dangers.

                        • TL:DR - Legendary Super-modified "The Purdy Deuce"

                          In this episode of 'Too Long, Didn't Read,' Kip Zeiter from the International Motor Racing Research Center discusses the iconic Purdy Deuce, a notable car in Oswego Speedway's history. Built in 1964 by Howard Purdy and Bob Hoxton, the car became dominant in mid-60s to early-70s supermodified racing, winning numerous races including the 1969 International Classic 200. After decades of inactivity, a restoration effort revived the car, culminating in its showcase at the 2021 International Classic with original driver Bentley Warren. The Purdy Deuce's history, its restoration, and its importance in motorsports are highlighted, along with upcoming events and discussions set for May 11th at the Steel Palace.
