What separates Houston Performance Driving from the Houston Police Department? Find out as we bring on Troy Dixon from HPD to clear up the confusion and give us a behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming Houston Cars and Cocktails event at Sawyer Park in the Woodlands on July 12th. Troy shares how the event is tailored for adults, with a strong emphasis on responsible behavior and strict adherence to TABC regulations, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all. Learn about the thoughtful measures, including hiring police officers, to prevent any issues related to drinking and driving, and get the lowdown on the event's layout and access points.

Shifting gears, we explore the vibrant world of Cars and Cocktails gatherings at Sawyer Park and Little Woodrows in Tomball. Held on the second and last Sundays of each month, these family-friendly and pet-friendly events offer something for everyone. From games for kids and massive screen TVs for sports to VIP parking sections and an incredible variety of cars, you'll understand why these events are a paradise for car enthusiasts. Troy breaks down the logistics, assisting with parking and detailing the diverse range of vehicles on display, from Corvettes and Camaros to Supras and BMWs. Plus, we offer some essential tips for staying sun-safe and hydrated during the hot summer months.

Finally, we take a nostalgic trip through significant moments in automotive history and examine the current state of the US auto market. From the first Chevrolet Corvette rolling off the assembly line in 1953 to Ford selling its first automobile in 1903, we celebrate the milestones that have shaped the industry. We also address contemporary challenges such as high prices, rising borrowing costs, and the impact of a cyber attack on CDK Global. Alongside the struggles of EV startup Fisker, which is seeking bankruptcy court approval to sell over 3,000 Ocean Electric crossovers at a discounted rate, we wrap up the episode with some light-hearted banter and an invitation for listener subscriptions. Don't miss this comprehensive and entertaining episode filled with car talk, history, and market insights!
