Drive Thru News #61: Mechanical Tricks & Trackside Treats
In episode #61 of The Drive Thru we kick off with Halloween costumes related to car themes, automotive mishaps, and repair stories involving various vehicles like Volkswagens and Jeeps. We touch on the rising prices of new cars, advocating for keeping older cars on the road. Additionally, the discussion includes Volkswagen's shift away from EVs, Porsche's exit from racing programs, and a test drive review of the Cayman GT4. There's also news from Stellantis, a humorous segment on odd car commercials, and updates from the world of motorsports with a particular focus on Formula One and Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. The episode wraps up with a behind-the-scenes look at SIM racing, the closure of the Pittsburgh International Raceway (PittRace), and upcoming automotive events.
