We uncover the groundbreaking innovations that make the Chevrolet Corvette a legend in its own right.  We look at how the first-ever fiberglass body in 1953, the fuel injection system of 1957, and the independent rear suspension of 1963 transformed the Corvette into an icon that continues to develop. We also look at the GM Small Block V8 that is a still a staple of hot rodding with over 50 million units built and  briefly touch on Pontiac's Tempest and its own independent rear suspension - can you say  'Mona Lisa Vito'?

In out feature segment, we take an in-depth look at the 2024 Subaru Impreza RS, with Michael Marrs.  We talk about the redesign, trim levels, and features.  We'll talk about the RS trim level with the black frameless hexagonal grill, side spoilers, and body-colored door handles.  The interior is equipped with black cloth seats, red bolsters, gunmetal and carbon fiber trim pieces, and a new 11.6-inch touchscreen.  Under the hood, is the powerful 2.5-liter boxer engine, direct injection, CVT transmission.

Formula 1 racing is a very high-end and expensive endeavor.  The cars are considered things of beauty and engineering marvels.  Currently, all F1 cars run the same motor - a V6 capable of 850 horsepower at 16,000 rpm!

They may not be the absolute fastest, but add in the cornering ability and braking that can create enough g-force to hurt a driver, and they become automotive marvels.

Author Steve Rendle joins us from the UK to talk about his book on the technology that goes into an F1.

In our feature segment, it is Master ASE Tech Konrad DeLong with the Car Clinic and he is talking about piston rings - what they are, what they do, and how some of them work.

Electric Vehicle technology is changing so fast, sometimes it is hard to keep up, particularly with the advancements in batteries.  While the batteries are a key component, we don't hear a lot about those other than what range is enabled.

To make it all work, the power of the battery has to be utilized in the most efficient manner while extending it as long as possible.  However, as with most batteries, which we don't think of, there are safety considerations - voltage, heat, and even chemical production from the use of the batteries.

Metis Engineering has developed a 'different' way of monitoring the health of EV batteries and Joe Holdsworth is joining us to explain why this is necessary and what their solution is.

In our feature segment, Jeff Dziekan takes at look at some '60's affordable muscle'.

It is a really big week for recalls across the industry, with over 2.5 million do not drive notices!  Almost the entire alphabet of makers can be found on the list.

To check your vehicles, go to SaferCar.gov and put in your vin#, which can be found on your insurance card or on the dash plate of the vehicle.  We recommend doing this twice a year, as history has shown that there can be recalls on the recalls...and maybe even a recall on the recall that was recalled.

In the New Car Showroom, Michael Marrs has a review of the 2023 Kia Telluride SX, a 3-row mid-size SUV with a lot of features.

Long known for being a neutral 'testing' body that consumers can look to for information that is not biased by the need for direct sales, Consumer Reports takes a look at almost everything!  Refrigerators, TVs, washers, dryers and more.  A big portion of their effort goes into automobiles.

Of course to properly test the modern automobile, it takes a lot of people and lot of space.  In fact the more complicated automobiles become, seems the more space is needed to test.  Back when it started, Consumer Reports bought up an old drag strip and started from there.  Recently, they actually added on to the track in a big way.  

Joining us for this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk is Maddie McCarty, with Consumer Reports to let us know more about the automobile testing.

In our feature segment, it is the New Car Showroom where Don Armstrong is checking out the new 2023 Toyota Tacoma - the best selling mid-size pickup.

In America, road races are few and far between.  One of the 'most' famous is 'The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb' or simply Pike's Peak.  It is a race up to the top of Pikes Peak, 12.42 miles that climbs to a height of 14,115 above sea level - hence it also referred to as The Race to the Clouds.

The original road, 1916, was gravel, creating a lot of exciting action.  Over the years it was paved so all events are now run on asphalt.  There are several classes, with the fastest being an open wheel category, but they are all pretty fast.

Richard Tomlin, Houston Regional SCCA Executive is also part of the Safety Team for the Pikes Peak race, so he has an inside look at some of the vehicles.  While not a driver for a lot of reasons, Richard does have a car that he built for the event and he takes some time to give us a look at what it takes to build a Pikes Peak Monster.

In our Feature Segment, it is Konrad's Car Clinic.

There is a saying, 'Technology is our friend', with a lot of people willing to debate if that is true or not.  We do have more information at our finger tips, and we have a tremendous amount of safety features on new automobiles.  It is an ongoing process of development, but it does make us safer drivers...which hopefully translates into better drivers.

As a fleet manager with long haul rigs, being a better driver can mean a lot of things.  Not only avoiding accidents or damaging the load, but taking car of the truck from a maintenance perspective.  This includes driving to take care of the vehicle so that wear and tear are reduced and maintenance is handled before something breaks.

Where does something like that start?  Joining us on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk, COO of CerebrumX is Sumit Chauhan,  a data processing company.  As Summit describes, it goes much further than just 1+1=2, it is knowing what to do with data.  While this is newer use of technology, the possibilities are there for a wide variety of applications....things that make ya' go hmmm.

In our Feature Segment, Jeff Dziekan takes a look at 'Six Funny Car Names' that are real world...and make us wonder what else is out there.
