Drive Thru News #57: Is it torqued or cross-threaded? Tight-is-TIGHT.


Listen Later

In this episode of the Drive-Thru, sponsored by organizations like CollectorCarGuide.net Project Motoring and others, hosts discuss a variety of automotive and motorsport topics. The episode kicks off with a humorous and anecdotal segment where they talk about the frustrations of high-performance driving events (HPDE) costs and track day logistics. They move on to recounting personal stories, including a funny encounter with doppelgangers and technical issues with their own cars, such as a Jeep transmission issue and a blown turbo in a VW Beetle. The conversation transitions into reviews and opinions on new automotive releases, including electric vehicles from Volkswagen and Alfa Romeo, and industry news like Italdesign being put up for sale. The hosts also discuss speculative mergers in the automotive industry and highlight bizarre news stories about road rage and speed camera ticketing. The episode wraps up with discussions on top-tier motorsport events, including upcoming Indy 500 predictions and Formula 1 races, seasoned with some light-hearted takes on the increasing corporatization of F1 races.
