DwD 0491: The Best Track Car

So what do you think is the best car to learn to drive on track?

GHiT 0489: Race Recap: Thompson 2023 with the 24 Hours of Lemons

Our team had two cars that raced at the recent 24 Hours of Lemons endurance race at Thompson. This includes the 1984 Mustang GT Turbo called MooStang and the 1991 BMW 535 with team Slippery Slope. It was a tale of two cars and the results show it. Post race hangover was fully in place by the two of us who didn't race, lol. Did the MooStang make up for last year's debacle? Did the 535 keep on rolling along? How was the ice cream shop? This and more are in this week's episode review.

DwD 0488: Lap Times at The Track

We were recently asked how to tell how a teams' car was doing in the race and how to tell what the lap times were. Luckily, there are several apps available to monitor any car's lap times when at the track and even when not at the track. We go over two of the more popular options that are used around the world.

DwD 0486: Minimizing Distance vs Maximizing a Turn's Min Speed

In Autocross, it is often correct to minimize distance to improve your time. On track, it is a bit more complicated due to the longer duration of the turns and the higher speeds and higher variation of speeds. During this episode, Ben and Bill talk through a few of the aspects of the track that can impact when to minimize distance and when to move your min speed in a turn to improve your overall lap time. Part 1 of many.

By poplar demand, we have a part two to our earlier DwD. Ben was concerned with making sure that everyone wasn't under driving just as much as he was concerned about over driving. We also have a quick listener comment on our earlier podcast episode about driving with bench seats. Thanks again.

Part 3 of 13 (and still growing) in our Lemons Judge Series is with Bob Griffin. The fun we are having with all the judges is fantastic and this episode is no different. In addition. The Lemons Judges see the series from their own unique perspective. We hope you enjoy this multipart series that we hope sheds some light on the, hmm, well on something.

We recorded this episode with Bob just prior to meeting him at the NJMP event and this was a wonderful pre-intro intro to him. We apologize for several of the dodge balls we hit him with, but it needed to be done.
