Goodwood: An Arthurian Odyssey in a Transit Van


Listen Later

Jon Summers is The Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing, technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. Hailing from California, he collects cars and bikes built with plenty of cheap and fast, and not much reliable. On his show, he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, and motoring travel.

Jon and his co-host Mark reminisce about their experiences at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. They discuss memorable highlights, such as Wayne Rainey's emotional hill climb and their spontaneous moments at the festival. The duo also reflects on various car models, including Ferraris at Goodwood and their personal favorites. They delve into their personal histories with cars, including Mark's experiences with his BMW M2 and past vehicles. Additionally, the conversation extends to John's Arthurian-themed road trip, exploring historical sites like Hastings, Winchester, and Glastonbury. The script concludes with John discussing his upcoming Pebble Beach event and their passion for motoring history.
