GHiT 0581: Heyward Wagner on his One Lap of America

Heyward Wagner is back after his recent adventure on the One Lap of America in his newly built Club Spec Mustang. As we discussed with Heyward on one of his earlier appearances, the Club Spec Mustang series was created to make a car that was competitive and fun to race in all types of motorsports, so naturally the OLoA was a great place to show the car's capabilities. And to have "Fun With Cars". How did it go? How did the car perform? Did they meet their goals? It's in here.

Plus, what was Heyward thinking when he accepted to race with us at an upcoming Lemons race? Not sure, but we aren't letting him get away.

DwD 0577: Tool Organization - At Garage/Home and At the Track

On a Ben-less Dominating with Dawson, we go over one of Bill's obsessions, tool organization. He has tested almost every style of tool organization and evaluated them for use in a garage/home, as well as when travelling to and from the race track. We initially go into several of the tool box solutions that we have tried and liked for different applications. Then we go into several of the different tool/drawer organization systems that we have tried and evaluated.

Please let us know if you have other preferences or found even better solutions.

DwD 0575: Car Livery - Part 1: Base Coat/Color Change Options

In our first emergency episode of Dominating with Dawson, without Dawson, we tried to cover an area of racing that we have investigated repeatedly, the livery. In this episode, Vicki and Bill go over several ways to change your car's color for a base to your livery. We also cover difficulty, costs, and other things that we have found to help with the process. This can be intimidating, but with a little practice and patience you can generate pretty impressive results at home for a few hundred dollars, or less with some creativity.
