DwD 0551: Arrive and Drive – The Hardcore Way

Taking a note from the Mighty Car Mods YouTube channel, we take a stab at what we would do for a heroic arrive and drive. On their episode they entered a 24 hour endurance race in another country by building their race car from scratch after they arrived. We decided that sounded like a challenge, so we begin planning how we would do the same.

Did we miss something? Do you have a better suggestion? Please let us know.

GHiT 0550: Celebration with Ross Bentley Helping Our Team Drivers Improve - Santa Style

Ross Bentley returns to help celebrate our 550th episode. Ross indulges us in helping refine Vicki's racing improvement plan for the upcoming season and then helps each of our drivers refine their driver goals and plans for 2024. Since each of our drivers is at a different point in their driving/racing journey, these can be examples of what everyone can take into account to self-assess and then develop your individual improvement plan. It all starts with the weirdest Christmas gift ever for Vicki.

Bonus tips for the upcoming One Lap of America towards the end of this episode.

GHiT 0549: ST-4 with Griffin Gamcsik-Uly

Griffin Gamcsik-Uly is the Super Touring Director and races in the ST-4 group with NASA Northeast. During this episode, we finally start to break down the various run groups in wheel to wheel (ST) and time trials (TT) as well as what the numbers mean in terms of cars and performance. It turns out that Bill may actually have a car ready to compete in ST and we may be out there with Griffin this summer. Unfortunately, Griffin may have a bit more firepower for the upcoming season.

DwD 0548: The Pizza Episode – Where is the best pizza, where is the worst pizza, and where is the worst pizza?

We welcomed Ben back with one of the most technical question we have ever had. We asked Ben where to get the best pizza? Where is the worst pizza? And finally, what is the most overrated pizza? We did go into pizza types and specific pizza stores. Obviously, you may have a different opinion. If so, please let us know.

GHiT 0547: Towing and Trailering for Racing-Part 1

While we love almost everything about racing, one thing that is at best a necessary evil is towing. When we started, we knew nothing. If you look at our past towing exploits, we prove that over and over. Besides being expensive, towing errors can be dangerous. This is part one of the episode we needed. We start off with the tow vehicle itself and then start to go into the varieties and needs of the trailer in this part 1 of two(?), still tbd.

GHiT 0545: Randy Bish Returns for His Second Lap

Randy Bish has been a friend for many years, even after his rally car broke down at the starting line near our home and he stayed to "fix" it for longer than the rest of the rally. On this episode, we catch up with how things have been going, what the team The League of Legitimate Nigerian Businessmen have been up to and why he, well so many items always start with "why" with Randy. If you listen, you will understand.

GHiT 0543: Spec3 Racing with Taylor Johnson

We love talking all thing racing and about as many series as we can. Today, we talked with Taylor Johnson about the Spec3 series and how this may be the just the things for your E36 BMW. The series started a few years ago but has recently been seeing significant growth in many areas of the country. It is a very competitive series and has a high level of performance for a low price in terms of both the car build and the consumables. If you are looking to get into a spec racing series, this may be the one, especially if you are more interested in the driving side of racing.
