For this episode of the podcast, we have Ryan from DSX Motorsports and Tasso from OTC racing back with us. For the first part of the episode, we catch up with everyone about what they have been up to for the last couple of weeks.

Tasso got his engine fired up in his rally car which is awesome.

Scotty got his car running again and took it to the track.

And Dussex took his car out to Super Lap Battle at Circuit of the Americas.

There was a lot to discuss here.

Then, somehow, the conversation shifted to differentials. We have a great talk about the difference between open, limited-slip, and welded (for Dussex) differentials. And we talk about the fact that not all limited-slip differentials are actually limited-slip differentials.

Hope you enjoy the podcast, and Stay Tuned!

For Episode 7 of the Flatirons Syndicate Podcast, we sit down with Ryan from DSX Motorsports, and Tasso from OTC Racing to talk about how the 2020 season is shaping up. Both of them are getting pretty close to having their cars back up and on track. For Ryan Super Lap Battle at Circuit of the Americas is just a few weeks away, so he is starting to finalize his plans for the race...

And find an engine

And for this episode, we have a special guest! Matt from Motul USA was in the shop, and we had him sit down with us to talk about Motul, and how involved Motul is with racing and motorsports.

Hope you enjoy the episode, and Stay Tuned!

For Episode 6 of the Flatirons Syndicate Podcast, we sit down with Ryan from DSX Motorsports and Tasso from OTC Racing to talk about Hill Climbs and Time Attack. Since those are the Motorsports that each of them are involved in, we wanted to take a deeper look at each of them from both a spectator and competitor point of view.

Tasso competes primarily in the Colorado Hill Climb Association series.

Ryan competes primarily in the SCCA Time Trials, and the Global Time Attack and Grid Life Time Attack series.

In both cases, we wanted to get a better idea of the strategy and development involved and it turns out that there are a lot of similarities between the two.

Thanks very much for listening, and Stay Tuned with Flatirons Tuning!

This is our first Podcast for 2020, so we sat down with Tasso from OTC Racing, and Ryan from DSX Motorsports to talk about plans for the year ahead. We had a good conversation here about a number of topics, and there were a couple of common focuses that came out. The main one was reliability.

There is also a good discussion about changing out a brake master cylinder to go to manual brakes, and we also talk a bit about our experience with twin-scroll turbos.

Thanks for listening, and thanks for your support!

About a year ago now, we sat down with Ryan from DSX Motorsports, Jeanette from Red Queen Racing, and Scotty from the shop here to talk about their experiences competing in a variety of forms of Motorsports such as the NASA Time Trials Series, SCCA Autocross, Pikes Peak Time Attack series, Global Time Attack, and Grid Life.

We had a really good discussion about what it was like to participate in these different events, and they were able to discuss what they felt were the benefits of each type of event, and what they liked about them as well.

It was a great conversation, so I wanted to include it with our podcasts here. Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

Ryan from DSX Motorsports was just in Indianapolis for the 2019 Performance Racing Industry (PRI) trade show, and he saw a lot of cool things that we talk about.  Some of the things discussed are stand-alone aftermarket ECU's and PDM's, sequential transmissions that are coming out for the STI 6-speed transmission, and bolt-in roll cages.

Then we move to the subject of Roger Clark Motorsports Gobstopper 3.  Roger Clark Motorsport has been releasing one picture a day for December to reveal various details about their Gobstopper 3 build.  We have a blog on the Flatirons Tuning site that collects all of these posts, and to say the least, this build is really impressive.  All of us have been taking a hard look at what RCM has been doing, so the second half of our conversation revolves around that.

Thanks very much for listening, and Stay Tuned!

For this episode of the Flatirons Syndicate Motorsports Podcast, we sit down with Ryan from DSX Motorsports and Tasso from OTC racing, and we take a deep dive into Subaru aerodynamics.

Scotty here is in the middle of building a splitter for his 2011 STI race car, and Ryan just built a splitter for his 2003 WRX race car not too long ago. When you throw Tasso into the mix, who is continually playing with adding aero elements to his WRX Rally car, aerodynamics quickly became the topic of the day.

Thanks very much for listening and Stay Tuned with Flatirons Tuning!

Two of the drivers that we sponsor are Ryan from DSX Motorsports, and Tasso from OTC Racing. Neither of them are strangers at the shop, but they both happened to stop in a couple of weeks ago at the same time, and we had a really good conversation with both of them about their race season.

It was such a good catch-up session that we decided that if we were able to get everyone together again, we should record it and put it out as a podcast.

So that is just what we did. We brought Ryan and Tasso in and for this first episode of the Flatirons Syndicate Motorsport Podcast, we take a look at the 2019 season for each of them. What went well, and what some of their struggles have been.

Thanks for listening and Stay Tuned!
