Hey, it's Raj.

And Noah.

And we're back with a new season of Am I Doing It Wrong,

the show that explores the all-too-human anxieties we have about trying to get our lives right.

Because we're still doing a lot of stuff wrong.

But who isn't?

That's why each week we're talking about the topics that we could all use a little helping hand with,

whether it's making new friends as an adult, managing our emotions, or even dreaming.

We'll be talking to experts in their fields who are definitely doing things right,

so the rest of us can be a bit wiser and a lot better equipped to handle whatever life throws at us.

dropping every Thursday starting January 1st, wherever you get your podcasts.

And for the first time ever, we're going to have full video episodes on YouTube,

because as long as there are things to get wrong, we're going to be right here to help you do them better.

What the lid on?

I should probably record on this.

Welcome back to the show. If you guys are new here, this is a TikTok live show

on the Bogetti Bunch TikTok that ends up on YouTube, on Bogetti Studios YouTube,

as a long form podcast, where I just come on here randomly throughout the week,

no rhyme or reason, no planning, normally when my son CJ is asleep, and we talk about cars.

Now, a couple of things going on this weekend. I actually cleaned and took my

CTSV to a car show, that one. My wife traded in her Trailblazer RS 2021, I think it is, was

for a brand new Chevy Traverse. Drives pretty nice, honestly. The little four cylinder actually

has enough pep in its step to where I was actually pretty satisfied driving it.

We also talk about random car topics. I have a bunch of things listed out here,

but we tend to get a lot of questions and I get derailed very quickly,

which ruins the podcast viewing experience, I'd imagine, but I think it's all part of the fun

of the ADHD of I can't stay on topic for too long, but then I can stay on topic for way too long

as well. Maybe, I don't know, maybe it's just a mix of it. Sometimes we end up talking about

things for a very, very long time. Are you and Klee on good standing? It's always about Klee,

always has been. I'm just kidding. Yes, I was at his house the other night. We had some stakes. I

brought over some filet mignons and we had some stakes. We also just went to Disney

two weekends ago, the weekend before this, with our families. How many wagon

Vs are left on the road? I don't know. The numbers on CTSV wagons are actually pretty slim.

There was 700 CTSV wagons produced in total. There was 10,000 non-V wagons, so there's only about

12,000 wagons that exist for the second generation. It's already pretty low. Even if you damage

something on the V and want to switch it over to like a base model and make it a fake V,

there's not all that many. I've tried. I've tried to buy a non-V. And then when you start to,

I'm going to do a whole video on this, but when you start to get into the real nitty gritty on

like say like this car, where it's got the sunroof, black interior, automatic,

yellow brake helpers, recaro seats, you start to really slim down. Oh, and the paint,

the black diamond tricote, there's only I think 100 that match it that are in its same spec,

like 115 when you when you option it down to that level. So it's really, it is really cool.

Vin Wickey. I've never, I've literally never been on Vin Wickey. I've watched a ton of the

episodes, but I've never been on Vin Wickey. I don't know what goes on there. Maybe I should

put my car in. I don't know. Do people use it like that? I feel like...

Discover top brands at unexpectedly low prices. Sierra, let's get moving.

When his YouTube took off so much, he kind of like sidelined Vin Wickey for what it was and now,

and then became more of like a YouTube guy. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong on that.

What do you guys think? Is that accurate? Like I said, never been on it. Maybe I should

try putting in some of my cars, but nothing I have besides the CDSB is really worth like being on

Vin Wickey. It's still used to list race cars. Is it like race cars, like road car, like time attack

cars? Like what what do people list on there? I go on cars and bids like every single day,

just because I like the way that they display everything. And you know, it's a fun

thing to scroll on, but is it worth digging into Vin Wickey? The CTSV forums have a

location, not the forums, but like the Facebook group has a location where they have all of the

where they show the numbers breakdown in like a really legitimate spreadsheet.

Like it's it's pretty pretty significant. Like they have every single option listed out

and you can really hone in on exactly how many you can go and see like there's

there's like two purple wagons, two of them, which is so cool. And even the wagons is funny

because they're 1700 and more than half of them are automatic, but not by that much more. So like

automatic manual. Yeah, like there's like two or 300 more automatics, but it's not as crazy as

you think. Like they're both very on the rare side. I feel like I sound like such a boomer talking about it.

Oh, the yellow saffron interior is pretty cool. I'm not I personally don't want it,

but I think it looks really good on the coupes. Definitely a big fan of that.

Yeah, I know I need a beverage cart. We're talking about how tracks don't have beverage carts, which

would be really nice. You know, like you go to a golf course, which I've only been maybe once or

twice, and you see these like beverage carts driving around and you're like, oh, wow, that's

so convenient. And then you're like at the drag strip and you're all the way at the top end.

And you don't really have time to go wait in line and you're like, man,

it'd be really nice if like a beverage car would show up and sell me a Gatorade. I would love to

purchase a Gatorade on the go, not beer. I don't drink alcohol anyways, but you know,

purchase like a sandwich, like a hot, hot sandwich, maybe, you know, they could have a

couple pre wrapped things, some fries. It wouldn't be really that difficult at all.

But I don't know, trying, definitely trying. I did see Cletus has a new giveaway coming out.

I don't know. I think he's going to announce it today. I don't know. It's actually pretty cool.

Big Ford guy, you know, maybe I give away too much. But I was looking at that 1320 has also

got a giveaway going. There's a lot of giveaways going in this world. Even Vice Grip Garage just

gave away that red ZL1 Camaro, which I really do like those cars. They're very good looking

cars. I do not like red on cars. I think red is not a color I would want to own in a vehicle. But

I would give away some Sriracha.

Is Matt Cletus's new cameraman? I don't know. Maybe. Just build a coyote.

Yeah, but it would have to be a race car. And then we're talking like a $80,000 car.

And I ain't got cheddar like that. I got a second kid doing November. I ended up

had to build an $80,000 race car. You guys are crazy. I would love to say yeah, maybe.

Maybe if you guys like the live stream and give me some galaxies, I too can afford to build your

dream car. Is that how it is? Like please, please buy the merch so I can build your dream car.

Right? Become a member, donate, subscribe, send me money in the mail, and I can build your dream car.

That's how it works. Sorry about the YouTube. This is where I really become a nerd.

The Chevrolet Camaro.

Only $60,000 and does it have a full cage? Does it have a nine inch?

There's your next. If it doesn't have a cage, then it's not a drag car.

See, even in here I got it bookmarked where my fourth gen sits.

Where is it? 4987 light pewter metallic fourth gen.

That's that's when it's bad. I bought a V6 Camaro.

It's a V6 base model stick shift car and I wanted to know how many they had of it.

That was that's too far.

I'm 40k in with cage nine inch t-inches 400 and a turbo barra in Aussie dollars two.

That must have been pre COVID because you ain't getting that now.

I mean, I don't know what Australia's got going on. You guys have a very small

population of people comparatively. So maybe pricing is a little different,

but 40k ain't getting you all of that stuff like quality built, not with like a

like a good not with like a good th 400 case and not with like a really solidly built motor.

That would be my only thoughts on that. What do I have up here? So let's go to my notes card.

I'm 65k deep in a turbo barra Capri and I fabricated 50% myself. That's fair. I mean,

I would say fabricating 50% of it yourself. But what are we talking about like the full cage and

everything? Because that's where it always, that's where it always hits that expensive part

in my build thoughts is once you need like a real cage because the cages,

a real cage, not just an 850, 850 cages are not,

are not worth doing anymore in my opinion, because 850 is a very easy number to hit.

You kind of have to do like a 25 three or 25 two cage or else it's really not worth doing because

850 so so relatively slow at that point that any turbo LS can run 840s easily. And I kind of ran into

that on sick week with my with my Camaro where I could not get that thing to run.

I was struggling to get it to go 850s. 850 was the fastest I could go with my cage

certification because we're still missing a couple bars. But I was struggling to get it to go 850.

I had to lift it like the right point. I had to be on the brakes. It just, it was just a fight.

And I was only limited by my cage. It wasn't limited by the class. And it was just, it was

just lame. Yeah, but that's the thing. Take it a yellow belly, no cage needed. But it's like

the cage isn't for the safety crew. The cage is for me. I need the cage for my own protection.

And so that my kids can grow up with a father. That's where it becomes like the,

the moral and ethical debate. It's like, yeah, can you squeeze by with like some dangerous stuff?

Sure. But rules are written in blood for a reason.

Like they're, they're written because it's, it's dangerous, you know, like I'm, I'm the one that's

trying to protect myself. Yes, some things I think are a little silly, like getting new

harnesses every two years, even if your harnesses are fully safe and good. I mean, like my,

the, the four point harnesses, or what are they five point harnesses are perfectly fine. They

sat in a car for a year and a half. I got them six months into their exploration. So they expire

every two years. And I got them six months in because Summit just sends whatever they don't

care. They hold the inventory. One thing about safety belts is always buy them from the

manufacturer instead of buying them from the, the, what's it called the like dealer. So always do that.

Because you end up getting old stuff like I did. And I dealt with some old belts. I've actually

twice had that happen to me, unfortunately, because I was in a rush both times and I

realized I was like, Oh no, I've found what I need. What do you think about true street

classes not allowing cages that run fives in the eighth again? I mean, it's, it's,

do they not allow them because anytime you don't allow safety is weird to me. I believe you should

always be allowed to have as much safety as possible. That's the same issue that all

steel all glass runs in with front windshields because Lexan windshields are actually a safety

concern, not just like a thing that you can make rules about. So if the car is going fast enough

to justify needing the safety, making a rule that says you can't have that safety is just insane.

That's my personal take on it. And you can't, you can't tell somebody that'd be like saying

you can't wear a Hans device. Oh, sorry, you can't wear your Hans device because this is a

street car glass. Oh, you can't wear your gloves or your racing shoes because this is

a street car glass. It does not make any sense. I do still have the V1. It's parked in

the storage shed. Unfortunately, when I moved into the house in 2019, I did have plans to build

it, but then I tried to, but then I built the Camaro instead and I was like, I'll get back

to it later. And then life happens and did not come back to it later. I still hope to.

I actually really like the look of that car. And those cars are really rare too. I think they only

made 4,500 first gen CTSVs. I don't know. I just really like that car. Your 11th gen Civic S.I. is

very cool. I will always tell you that. Don't worry. What's it? Squeezable mayonnaise.

That is the best type of mayonnaise as well. Isn't sour cream just Hispanic mayonnaise?

Right? Wouldn't you guys agree with that? I do enjoy both mayonnaise and sour cream very much.

Maybe it's just white people things that they put on as like a white condiment. It's just either

mayo or sour cream for when it has rice and beans with it.

Sour cream is delicious. It's one of the best. I had it the other day with, what was I,

dipping freaking chicken nuggets in sour cream, but neither sour cream or mayo is very hot.

I prefer Frank's Red Hot. If we're talking about hot sauces that have the best flavor

and spice balance, I like a good Frank's Red Hot. That's it. Call me basic. Chilula is good, right?

Chilua? Chilua? I don't know. I can't say it. That's why I never end up getting it because I can't

ask for it when I'm at places.

Do you sell yellow bird sauce? Do they sell yellow bird sauce? I've never heard of that.

What is yellow bird sauce? Is it something they sell at like a HEB? Because I will say

HEB might be the best grocery store I've ever been to.

Tabasco? It's too watery. I like a little bit of thickness to the sauce, you know?

Even like sriracha thickness but actually taste good would be convenient.

I don't like a vinegar based deal where it's so...

So what's the best towing rig? That's a deep question. I've actually done some...

I've done some writing on drag racing and picking a tow rig because I've dealt with both. I've been

a part of a toater life a little bit. I've been a part of a diesel pusher and towed that

thing all over the place. I've towed a dually all over the place. I've towed a single-wheel truck

all over the country. I personally think the RV life is awesome but you got to bring like a

smart car or something with you because it gives you such little maneuverability when you get

places. I mean we've been places where you just park and that's kind of what you have to

do. You have to have a second person with you when you get to a really long vehicle like a

like a diesel pusher because you are going to get caught up in some weird spots, some weird turns,

some weird angles or something like that that just gets you stuck where you need a second

person to be watching or else you're going to have a bad time. I wish I could read these

comments a little better. Can I put them above me? Is that an option on TikTok?

I don't know because they're like they're right on my shirt very annoying very irritating.

I need to like flip the whole thing somehow

but I personally really enjoyed having the RV because you actually had a lot of space when

you were at the track and you felt like you could be at the track for longer if you don't plan to

race like two, three, four days or actually be on the road a lot and you just go to the track

and you need something that tows well. A toad or home even like an older one like a pre-

emissions one is super awesome to get. I would absolutely buy one of those but it would be a

little tight honestly even like Garrett's the toad or like that talking like a toad or like a

fifth wheel style toad or it gets a little tight in there we're at World Cup with that

and you know it works but it's a little tight I mean when I was at World Cup I slept in his

trailer I didn't sleep in the toad or I think it was me and James were in there maybe Zach

no I think it was just me and James but it gets a little tight but it's not that bad I mean sleeping

in the trailer is fine it got pretty cold at World Cup but it was still fine but the diesel

pusher just gives so much space I always dream about them every time me and Bronte start talking

because I'd love to travel with the family when CJ gets a little older I've kind of laid low

for the past two years mostly because I'm trying to be full dad mode to kind of get these kids off

the ground a little bit because that's how it kind of feels to me it's like okay I got I'm gonna have

two kids here soon let me get them like off the ground a little bit and then dive back deeper

into actually racing my personal car I still plan to race my car but not to the level we're

racing in like 2020 2021 and 2022 so maybe then get like a diesel pusher and actually be able to

travel a good amount because those things are pretty awesome and they do really good loans on them

people get like a 30 year mortgage on diesel pushers which is pretty cool

I do appreciate that you can get like a nice long-term loan really put yourself into generational debt

hey it's Raj and Noah and we're back with a new season of am I doing it wrong the show that explores

the all too human anxieties we have about trying to get our lives right because we're still doing a

life throws at us subscribe now and listen to new episodes of am I doing it wrong dropping

every Thursday starting January 1st wherever you get your podcasts and for the first time

ever we're going to have full video episodes on youtube because as long as there are things to

get wrong we're going to be right here to help you do them better love y'all

seventh wood fire oven bagels unfortunately that out the ai

will you buy a car for your kid I don't know I mean that's so hard to know he's so young

maybe he'll just want one of my cars maybe we'll build something together I don't know I mean

my parents didn't buy me a car we we they helped me of course get it and like figure out buying

a car but they didn't buy it for me I lived I worked for like every summer pretty tirelessly

to be able to buy my first car and then um I wrecked it almost immediately but that's

a different story just live in life we all end up with a zero balance that is true

yeah you can't take it with you but you're not really supposed to spend it on yourself either

you're supposed to spend it on the people that's kind of the uh that's the the Christian way

is to not hoard wealth

okay let's talk about this do you guys agree with me that Hoonigan editing style has damaged

automotive youtube the the the memes being forced in there I'm just trying to consume the content

I I don't need fluff and I feel like the memes that were just shoehorned in and they are so shoehorned

into such an aggressive level that it's like forced now and I'm like it everyone's doing it everyone

cuts away to spongebob mostly or a movie reference or uh other car reference like

there's just too many cuts I get they're trying for the tiktok mentality but it has become too much

it was okay when it was when it was uh centralized to what Hoonigan did but now it has infiltrated

everyone they saw that it worked well for Hoonigan and it worked well for uh for what's it called um

the what's the other one donut media they did the same thing and it just got too far

I prefer just simple as basic as it can be if you have to cut 50 times in one sentence

you need to work on your speaking a little bit you need to figure that out and you know maybe

do a second take if every other word is cut because you couldn't speak in a fluid sentence maybe that's

a personal problem you need to figure out um I I don't think that falls on me as a viewer that has

to like twitch because there's a thousand and two cuts um that's maybe that's just me being

a boomer and I'm fine with that I just think that there's a certain level of of what we can see even

like when I'm doing this I'm doing this with one camera some people would do this same thing with

three camera angles and just cut back and forth and I'm just sitting here talking it'd be one

thing if I showed you what I'm looking at but like we don't need 50 different camera angles

on nothing we don't need 100 different cuts in a sentence if you it's just frustrating it

it's very annoying to see and I get why people do it I understand that it has to be done and people

yeah Whistle and Diesel's last video I I mean not maybe not his last one his last one was kind

of kind of a curveball I would say but his there was one that I watched and it it was like giving

me a migraine because of how many cuts there was I just couldn't believe the editing style and it may

work really well that may be the best editing style to use who am I to say I don't have 10 million

subscribers I don't plan on destroying a Bugatti I mean I don't plan on it but you know

who knows what'll happen in this world but again it just it it's gone too far

yeah I don't know I don't want to get involved in the whistling thing he might he might make a video

attacking my entire family if you do that he was pretty mad at coffeezilla for all of their issues

are you a parts or car hoarder or collectibles now I don't really collect anything I have

some photos of my cars I don't have any like collection I don't collect hot wheels I don't

try to hoard parts really they are they're not really worth hoarding I try not to hoard cars because

they just they wither away I've you know my neighbor has a couple cars and they've kind of

withered away since I've moved in here and it kind of woken me up to don't hoard cars just

let them go my kid loves hot wheels loves the monster trucks like the big ones like the

116th scale or 132nd scale something like that uh 36 136 scale

and I just tend not to want to hoard any of that stuff because it's just useless clutter

as much as I have a lot of it I don't actively hoard it I would sell it all in a heartbeat

if a buyer was there I would I list it all the time every couple every like eight months I try to

do like a clean out and just list some stuff if it's sad for that long list it you know like if

if it hasn't moved in a year for sale sometimes things aren't worth putting on Facebook marketplace

that's that's a balance me and my wife had where conversation we had the other day it's like

if something's like $20 is it worth haggling with somebody on Facebook marketplace is it

or is it just like not worth it at all I mean that's kind of how I feel about it a little bit

it's just not worth haggling over I don't know maybe like a hundred bucks is worth it but then

you got to like align a meetup and all this stuff it's just like not trying to deal with that

you know like there's a threshold 20 bucks maybe like 20 bucks maybe the bare minimum

of something I would deal with somebody on Facebook marketplace with that's that's how it feels

Ford Blue Cruise hands-free highway driving takes the work out of being behind the wheel

allowing you to relax and reconnect while also staying in control

enjoy the drive in blue cruise enabled vehicles like the f-150 explorer and Mustang Mach E

available feature on equipped vehicles terms apply does not replace safe driving

see for dot com slash blue cruise for more details

and also under $100 I'll only haggle the price so I don't have to break a bill

yeah I mean that makes sense but like it's so it's just so time consuming for $20 like to list it to

message people back and forth to do the whole song and dance like meet up with people it's just like

what what is your time valued at how long is that going to take you is it going to take you over

two hours it's going to take you an hour if it takes you an hour I mean I guess that makes

sense if it takes you two three hours and you got to like drive to meet up with somebody

no it's not worth it it just it just becomes not worth it you just throw it away so I people

have all those videos of them destroying things instead of actually selling them to the people

that were lowballing them um the v wagons they get like one rust spot right behind the grill

I'd be curious how rusted out up north v wagon is I mean this one came from up north but it

was pretty garage kept from what I can tell it wasn't really rusted out it's unlikely if somebody

drove it in the snow and got it rusty I feel like you can easily feel like they're not a car that

somebody would have done that too it's not like you're finding some older muscle car maybe that

somebody did use as like a daily driver like they were always known as a car that was going to

appreciate so people kind of treated them that way is it outlaw armageddon this weekend

that race does seem pretty cool do they do a live feed for that I was watching some of jake's live

feed from or not jakes but um one of one of the live feeds at jake's race this weekend it just

ah drag racing is so tough to watch on a live feed it is so slow moving at times like you're

sitting there waiting like me and cj we're trying to watch but he doesn't have the patience for that I

don't have the patience for that I don't have the patience to have a tv open and wait 20 minutes 30

minutes for um anything to happen like it just and that's not a dig on jake at all like he

puts on a awesome show but it's so so difficult to watch drag racing like that I mean I don't even

have patience for world cup half the time it's just again it's so slow moving

um no yellow cars do look good

forever grudge racing right now what is what is forever grudge is that on youtube I mean it really

shows how invaluable things like 1320 are but they need to be timely like if 1320 was there

filming jakes race which I don't know if they were it needs to come out today it needs to be like

um that track channel gary is really good at that he comes out with

he comes out with the uh videos right after

and that is the key to uh to doing it okay so why all the hate on evos lately I don't

hate evos at all I like evos um I even like evo 10s which is like the controversial one

I think evos are really cool

I think evos are they're one of those cars that stopped not because

like they didn't stop because they just like fizzled out which I actually appreciate you know

looking back on it from the thousand foot view we have now when they stopped making the evos

it wasn't because they stopped in a lull they stopped like at a good stopping point they knew

they were going to ruin the name so they just stopped maybe that's not true maybe some people

say they've ruined it with the evo 10 but I think the evo 10 was a good end to the series

I think if they tried to keep making it past what 2016 they would have really ruined it

and I think we see that with a lot of other names and a lot of other brands like

it's it's literally the the joker or what the who said that two-faced you either live long enough

to see yourself become the hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain or you

die a hero kind of how the evo went out it died a hero it did not live long enough to see itself

become the laughing stock of the car world which I respect I like that

yeah I mean that's fair on the motor change if you're more of like an evo purist as just like a

car guy not like a evo purist I tend to not care about the engine super heavily you know like

not care that it's changed from it is I know that it's still pretty good it puts out enough power

obviously the 10 is so different than what it what it was before that it doesn't really

doesn't really hold the same lineage anyways will CJ be in a junior dragster I hope not

have you ever been at a junior dragster race the dads are constantly fighting the kids are

off in the trailer playing video games the things sound horrible it's a cool skill and all

but I honestly would rather him ride go-karts I would honestly rather put that money into

go-karting because I think it builds a better skill I I think even like circle track builds a

better skill go-karting builds a better skill junior dragsters I can you don't need that

maybe when you get to like a like a door car and you can go bracket racing like 15 years old but

I mean come on go shifter car racing I like I've seen Jeremy's sons Jeremy from auto his sons were

shifter car racing the entire time I knew him and they both have very very good driving skills

because of that the shifter carts teach such a strong skill set and honestly you'll get a more

well-versed skill set in the shifter cars because you like a race it teaches you all of it teaches

you the handling it teaches you respect of the vehicle it teaches you how to maintain the vehicle

you have to learn the lines you have to like there's so so much that you learn from a shifter

car is it more maybe I don't know probably but you can do that on a pretty good budget too

I made more of like a Tony cart than a shifter car you wouldn't put like a you know like a 10

year old in a shifter cart or like an 8 year old or whatever it is circle track 410 NARC

late model I love going sideways in bull ring yeah I mean that seems cool too Florida doesn't

have a ton of that but I can see why like it's really just what's in your area too if you have a

lot of junior dragsters in your area like go for it we have both within 15 minutes for me we have a

really good shifter we have a really good go-kart track and we have obviously a really good drag

strip we have a circle track freedom factory but I don't know if they've ever done anything

with like that young of kids involved like 10 ish years old I don't know how what that looks like but

I don't think they've ever done that so you have to think about what's accessible and

currently that's just not um all the drivers real drive I was at the last one and I really

enjoyed that race I thought it was really cool to see I think some of those f-150s are awesome

they that's one of like they just build such a good vehicle it'd be interesting to see them really

try to like I mean I know they're already pretty low no limits but take all of the f-150 stuff and

put it into like a like a fox body or something yeah the engine might sit a little higher or like

something along those lines maybe like an s197 where they can put the motor push the motor a

little bit far back or something I don't know it'd be really cool to see like a true all out deal

not that those f-150s aren't but you guys know what I mean like they're still

steel frames and like all that good stuff they're still like a full-size truck not a car

I thought the drama around cletus testing was kind of silly there's not much he can do

it is his test spot like they all have their own test spots he put on the race it's $20,000 to win

I don't think maybe I'm wrong but I don't think the Dale truck is like such a ringer that he's

just going to go mop the floor with everyone even if he got some testing if it was like Manuel

or someone like that maybe I would say well probably I would say if he got a bunch of

test passes as much as he want then I'd probably be a little bit more

angry but because it's Garrett you know it kind of is what it is like you gotta accept that that's

his test spot everybody else's their own test spots his just happens to be where the race is

and now not doing it like a month before is probably fair but you gotta expect that he's

going to make hits out there drip some water on me

does it ever feel like you're a marketing professional just speaking into the void

but with LinkedIn ads you can know you're reaching the right decision makers a network of 130 million

of them in fact you can even target buyers by job title industry company seniority skills and

did I say job title see how you can avoid the void and reach the right buyers with LinkedIn ads

spend $250 on your first campaign and get a free $250 credit for the next one get started at

linkedin.com slash campaign terms and conditions apply yeah I don't know I think the whole

blackwing customize it is um is kind of just a gimmick that Cadillac has to sell more of them

of course it is but it's just I don't know if it's worth it I think the cars I think the price

becomes so stupid that it makes the car like double the price just to get it painted the color you want

which it doesn't make much sense for that car it's not like a Porsche where

it's already a $250,000 car and then you add another 20,000 30,000 with options it's like

it adds so much price to it that it it makes it really tough to justify but I don't have to

justify it because I'm not gonna get one the blackwing is cool I think they're a little boring

looking I've said this many a times I think that the blackwing kind of looks like it looks like

mundane you know like they took away like all the venting like the v3 had a hood vent and like

had more aero and the blackwing they just took away a bunch of the uh it just took away a bunch of

the character that it had yeah but like I get that they're unassuming but they also still have to be

like somewhat aggressive looking they're the way that I see the v is it's supposed to be like a

if you know you know car like it should stand out to car guys even if they don't know what it is

but that one like kind of doesn't they've always stood out but they just like I don't know even

like the the wagon that I have like it should stand out to car guys but it doesn't have to stand

out to everyone yeah their cat he's pretty cool um putting like a small block Chevy with

nitrous in it is very funny with like the bad-ass eight eight solid axle and everything like Jackie's

zdsv is pretty sick the v2 coupe makes a pretty good drag car honestly

but sometimes they end up looking weird I think when they like pull the wheels really far in and stuff

the 2019 shows sho do you say show or shos are actually really cool

I need a low taper fade everybody always talks about hairstyles with me I've never once looked at

it looked into a hairstyle I I just cut it myself I just take some scissors and I go like this to

keep the sides from looking too poofy and I just hope for the best I look in the look in the

mirror and I was like you know like Edward scissor hands like a young Johnny Depp and I just hope

for the best I haven't gone to a barber in five to six years

I mean if someone's just trying to get into drag racing I would say go it's it okay so

it depends on where your level is like if you have a vehicle I would say if you've never been

down a drag strip I would say whatever vehicle you have right now whether that be a Honda Civic

Prius anything go to a test and tune and pull it into the beams many many many times go to a test

and tune and hot lap that thing if you got a Toyota RAV4 go hot lap it it'll make as many passes

as you want and just hot lap it just just do that and see how fast other cars are see how fast your

car is get a feel for it learn where the learn where everything is and then go from there if you

want a next level then go try like a bracket race go to a bracket race and try your hand at

that and then from there you can kind of start to actually get your foot in the door of a drag

strip and learn where to go next because that that will come down to more of a preference thing

if you want to build something that's more of a drive to the track drive home

it's a way different class than a lot of others if tires are too expensive for us poor

Bradenton folks yeah but you don't have to go to a big smoky burnout if you got like a

a budget if you got like a car like a regular car you're not going to have to go to a burnout

you go pull around the burnout box and go down the track it's not going to spin

it's just going to go right down the track it's 15 bucks was a nitrous nine second coyote

huge regrets what happened um i feel like i feel like a nine second nitrous coyote is pretty

spicy for the first time at the track

florida is not very strict with registration depending on where the car was originally

titled they might want to look at the odometer but i don't think so they're pretty easy going

my miata is slow i say is 23 seconds 68 mile per hour b 18 1994 27 50 weighs 15s

weigh weight 15s um but again i mean it's a miata take it down the track as many times as you can

that's always my even like bronte has tape she took her um old car her trailblazer r s down the

track she made a few passes with it i think one time she may have staged with her back tire but

you know it happens we've all accidentally done that it is what it is but she's still i i actually

i remembered it because i threw away the time slip when i was uh cleaning out her car because we were

switching everything over to the uh to the new car of course and i ended up throwing away a time

slip that was sitting in the in the glove box and i think it went like 86 miles an hour which

it was cooking you know 86 miles an hour in like 16 seconds i was like all right it's it's a

three cylinder turbo and it's a some korean car those trailblazer r s's are all made in

like vietnam or something where is a trailblazer r s made um south korea yeah those are all

sake vehicles i don't know where the traverse is made though where's the traverse made oh that one

says made in that one says made in michigan look at that that's what it says i don't know if that's

true but that's what the google ai says

i figured it would have been mexico or canada the new ones look the best i just wish that it had

like a six cylinder in it that's my only real that's my only real gripe with it is that the

motor is a little small even if it has enough power to get it moving it's got enough you

know it's got enough um yeah she ended up getting a trailblazer or a trailblazer not the r s just the

regular regular entry level it doesn't even have like a trim really on it but it's the probably the ls

i guess you could say but it has great amount of options bucket seats all the interior is pretty

much the same it has cloth seats so that's kind of the only ish downside i like cloth seats i don't

mind not having leather um but i think the leather is nice because you get the ac seats which is nice

before she had a trailblazer r s now she went up to the traverse we've got them both from stingray

they've been very kind to us the trans feels pretty good it's got they they make 328 horsepower 326

foot pounds of torque uh sake makes a lot of the jam vehicles but i don't think that this one's very

sake maybe they make the engines i don't know the lk 20 that's what's engines in it you see

this was one of those deals where bronte knew what she wanted um

but because she knew what she wanted that means that i had no reason to really look into this vehicle

because i wasn't going to talk her out of it there was no talking her out of it the only

thing that was going to happen was i would dive deep into learning about this vehicle and

then i'd have worries about it or i would there was other vehicles that i was trying to look at

which was like the um the afford explorer or her sister just got a new to a honda passport which is

actually 10 000 12 000 more which i felt was pretty aggressive but they're very nice um all the drive

they did have it does have general grappler tires on it which i'm i'm all about economy on these

deals i think it's stupid to get something like that that you're you're literally just

going to put around town and put some general grappler tires on it because you're just going

to wear them out and you're not going to do anything of interest with it like i was talking

to them yesterday i was like you're going to take that thing off road or anything and

they're like no we're too kind of too scared to and i want to pinstripe it and i get it i

wouldn't want to take it off road either it's a brand new 50 000 car i don't want to get pinstripes

on it get stuck in the mud but then you're like oh so you're just gonna wear down your uh

you're gonna wear down your your nice tires um we did look at a mazda we looked at the

mx6 or whatever the inline six cylinder it didn't have the one option she wanted in the back

which was the the ceiling vents in the back two rows so that we can point them on the kids

and kind of need it in florida it may sound like a little thing but it's actually a pretty

big thing having roof vents and ceiling vents in the back you know you probably don't even

think about it on your car but it's very convenient to have and that was one of the

main options that she wanted and we use her car very frequently i mean of course because like this

the car seats are already in there um it's already kind of done deal

it also has them on the center console which most of them do so when he's forward facing

which he isn't for now pulse duration injectors taxes the 90 mile per hour in 70 mile an hour

pulse for saving gas without you knowing interesting

yeah if you don't have air in the back what are your kids doing we had a fan in her old car

and how can a two or three row c car not have air vents in the back ceiling it just doesn't make

any sense yeah the traverse has it that's what that's what we wanted that's why she ended up with

the traverse the forward explorer did have it though some of them have it on the side

which isn't quite as effective this one has like the classic gm circular ones that have the three

folds that twist fold 360 such a classic gm

i don't know if hers has cup holders back there hers has buckets hers has um

captain's chair so maybe not

the classic tahoe vents yeah they're they're so gm you can you can like blindfold me and hand me

that and it'd be like this is a gm air vent you know it's like one of those things

um i do like the mercury marauders i think it's unfortunate that they never made a marauder

a mercury marauder

forward ranger i think they should have taken the forward ranger platform and given it to mercury

and said you know make some of these make them make them cool i think they should have done that

they should have made them all black they should have made like sick as chrome exhaust tips they

should have put the same wheels on there they should have lowered it stiffened the suspension

stiffened up the whole chassis and then put the same supercharged 32 valve or not supercharged

but the same motor setup that the marauders had in there that's what they should have done

yeah that would have been awesome a marauder ranger nice and low they could have either done

step side or um or just regular bed but the step side bed would have looked pretty tight too

okay so let's talk about cars that i can afford the new 911 turbo s it has electric

turbos on it how do we feel about electric turbos now it feels like there's a lot of

shit going on i do like that they're like 710 horsepower they're like 707 they're like basically

i'm gonna start calling them the 911 hellcat but i feel there's too many things

it they should have they should just go electric that why why go electric turbo not all electric

but like they should just go hybrid they should just make it a like there's a there's an electric

generator in between the transmission and the engine they have the same flat six they make more

peak torque but like why not just go na and make it electric assisted i feel like you can get the

same power out of it it almost seems like a weird crutch that they're giving themselves like like why

why are we doing this like i'm not i'm not asking for full electric but it just make it hybrid

without turbos it'll sound awesome it'll have this i mean it could easily make 700 horsepower

or a little drive just do that i don't really get it i don't really get the whole idea of electric

turbos as a power adder just make the power with the electric engine it's almost like

and there's almost like guaranteed power loss because instead of using the electric engine

to just move the car you're using it to move the turbos to feed air into the engine like

just ditch the middle man like it's it's like a it's like there's taxes involved in that just

just ditch the middle man maybe that's why their profits are down 98 percent this quarter

i don't know i'm i'm not a german engineer a Porsche engineer but it just seems silly

it seems like one of those things that people are going to look back on in a few years and be

like why did we do that why did we make electric turbos

maybe i'm wrong

can we talk about the compressed air cars i'm really long i'm really um how would you say

i think that the compressed air supercharging stuff is going to really take off

have you ever seen Porsche in f1 yet um are they not in f1 right aren't they

don't they do something yeah Porsche isn't in f1 but they're planning to be right

no i mean it is an electric turbo because it's got the the compressor housing it's got the exhaust

housing and then in the middle is an electric engine an electric motor that gets the turbo

spinning faster so it's like why not just take that electric motor instead of putting it on the

turbo put both of them that you're already using on the wheels on the front and then leave the engine

in the back naturally aspirated really high revving really high compression make it sound

super pissed off and then boom you have all the performance you need

i don't understand it i really just don't get it and i think it's going to be

looked at very unfavorably in 10 ish years and i think Matte Remak said it best he's you know

owner of Remak electric car company and he makes he makes the motors and he's a supplier for Porsche

also Porsche put turbo on the back of their all electric vehicle which is a sin in my book

um but he is the CEO of Bugatti and he said use one one handicap pick your handicap

Bugatti's are naturally aspirated now they're engine but they have electric motors as well so

their handicap is the electric motor people want the nice loud na sounding cars they love v10s they

love v12s they love v8s like we'll always love that stuff but pick your handicap if your handicap

is turbo is cool don't use a don't use a hybrid system if your handicap is um a turbo don't use

the hybrid system do i already say that if your handicap is a hybrid system don't use a turbo

leave it na pick your handicap and please for the love of god don't use everything we don't need

like the m6 right how heavy is the new um m6 5000 pounds like come on

like how what is it the m5 hybrid the newest car it has pretty much everything it has electric

motors it has a v8 it has it just has all of it they checked all the boxes and then you end up with

a 6000 pound vehicle

5390 it weighs 5,390 pounds no my v weighs 4,300 it's like a thousand pounds lighter

with a new season of am i doing it wrong the show that explores the all two human anxieties we

have about trying to get our lives right because we're still doing a lot of stuff wrong but who

isn't that's why each week we're talking about the topics because all use a little helping

hit with whether it's making new friends as an adult managing our emotions or even dreaming

we'll be talking to experts in their fields who are definitely doing things right so the rest of us

can be a bit wiser and a lot better equipped to handle whatever life throws at us subscribe now and

listen to new episodes of am i doing it wrong dropping every thursday starting january first

wherever you get your podcasts and for the first time ever we're gonna have full video

episodes on youtube because as long as there are things to get wrong we're gonna be right

here to help you do it better but the problem is some people are already calling it out and now

like new cars being dumb using a mix of all the systems it is dumb and some people are calling it

out correctly and i think it'll be looked at favorably in the future even like a lot of people

are talking about to varsh is um taking the hybrid system out of his p1 and i think that's a

great idea it's already going to be twin turbo it's already going to be a v8 it's already really

light it's just going to be better without the hybrid system as cool as that sounds

and as cool as that seems at the time i genuinely think that it just isn't it just isn't necessary

and i think that's why you're going to see um you're going to see the hybrid cars are not as

valuable i think this newest Porsche is not going to be looked at as favorably in the future as

like a 991.2 or like a 992 whatever those previous 911 turbo s's were

though those ones just aren't going to be looked at as favorably they're going to be looked at as

dumb over complex hybrid systems that aren't good and now Porsche does things very well

historically but i still think that there's going to be some more growing pains to using electric

turbos and even on like the gts where they just use one of them i still think it's kind of silly

but only time will tell um i'm sure people internally at Porsche are already saying this

and i will say it as well but um we'll see even like think about the best Porsche you can think of

what is it an NA v10 stick shift car Carrera GT and even

the 918 that thing it has the the exactly what i'm talking about it has

one compromise just a hybrid they didn't add turbos it's just an NA v8

with electric motors they already did this with the 918

everybody keeps saying that the the 917 is the best the best Porsche right now or what is it the 9

978 what is it called yeah the 978 everybody keeps hyping those boxers up and the Caymans up

like crazy and i think they just discontinued them for that reason but those seem really good

the 718 that's what it is i knew you see dyslexia is tough that 718 seems freaking awesome i'm not like

the deepest into the Porsche stuff but i i try my best

just got a demonetization

yeah i think they just discontinued the 718 but it seems so it seems so good

and and like i said everybody keeps saying that that's like the best driver's car everybody

that i heard drive and review them only talk about how good they are

what does the SF90 have so another thing about like supercars like this is most people like me

drag racers people that are deeper into drag racing seem to have like are at odds with

supercars and supercar owners but it's like the pinnacle of awesome engineering like they're sick

why would anybody want why would anybody not like them everything about them is cool the engines

the powertrains the like all of it's cool yeah so like the the SF90 is a great example

four liter turbocharged hybrid v8 just pick one make it a naturally aspirated like

4.8 liter v8 ditch the boost and make it hybrid like that's what that's what's going to look

favorably i think in 15 years it's fine like people are going to get past the hybrid but

people will dislike that there's also boost on top of it because the hybrid system should be

good enough to not require boost and it's and the boost does ruin what should be really good

na sound i mean the f40 is awesome because of the sound the

and we are at this point where we can have na cars again the na cars can make the power and

performance because of the hybrid drivetrain stopover complicating them let's make it simple here folks

or sorry the f40 did have turbos the um i was thinking the i know the f50 had the turbos too was

the 288 gto that didn't right no that one's also turbo what am i thinking of the mclaren f1

that's what i'm probably thinking of 458 yeah

f50 okay that's what it is see i don't even know these well enough not that's surprising

the 458 every time you hear them sounds awesome

yeah the f50 with the v12 we need more of that boosted coyotes are great but that's the one handicap

you get boost you know like if you have a car that doesn't have a hybrid system it should

be boosted if you have a car that does have a hybrid system don't boost it i'm sounding like a

broken record here

oh yeah the enzo

that one was kind of at a weird time for ferrari the end though but they do look really good

yeah i don't know what do you guys think is elan must tesla overvalued um do you think that it just

like do you think that it'll grow or is it not going to be a pump stock anymore

i tried to avoid investing in everything because i don't like most companies for some reason or

another but

i tried to get bronte to get a ford explorer i was i was put i was pitching it i was trying

okay so we can talk about the three types of hybrid powers there's power split series and

parallel so they can either go in the drive train like in the front wheels like the

zero one where or the zero one x where the front wheels are driven by a hybrid system

it can go in between the engine and transmission where it drives the transmission a simple example

is like the hybrid tahos they had a electric motor built into the transmission so basically just

added extra power to the transmissions i think even dodge has like a a system where they build

basically an electric supercharger onto the belt drive where it spins the belt drive to basically

act as a supercharger an electric one or the split i guess would be the other one right power

split is where you use it to create boost or even i mean i guess there's another one where

you have a electric a fully electric car and then you build a gas generator on it that just charges

a small battery instead of having like a giant huge you know 300 mile range battery you have

like a 50 mile range battery that just has an electric a gas motor that charges it that

those are kind of the ways that these operate and it's worth familiarizing ourselves with this

because it is what is to come and one thing i heard that was very funny about electric vehicles

somebody was talking about it and they were saying um if we started off with electric vehicles

you would never be able to convince somebody to get a gas vehicle like you would have this

electric vehicle and you'd be like oh it's clean it doesn't burn any emissions there's like no moving

parts there's like one or two moving parts uh it it has great acceleration it's it's nice and smooth

it's quiet it's soft and then you'd be like here's a gas vehicle but well okay cool is it

more efficient you'd be like well no is it loud yeah uh does it burn anything yeah burns a bunch

of things um you know you need oil you need engine oil transmission fluid it burns gasoline

it's like 80 efficient or 70 efficient with gasoline probably less for a lot of cars

it yeah it has a lot of moving parts thousands of parts that are constantly moving we have

to create a controlled explosion constantly for it to work the injectors all have to work at

the same time there's a ton of uh uniformity that has to go on uh valves are constantly opening

and closing there's a lot of service that has to be included in it uh bearings there's a lot of

wear items nobody you would never be able to convince anyone it would just not be possible

and even um i guess henry's Ford's quote kind of fits with this i heard it the other day

but i i don't even know if it was from henry ford and he said if i had asked people what they wanted

they would have said faster horses um which is is pretty awesome like you know people don't know

what they want and henry ford even said like people would have just asked him for faster horses

instead of cars and yeah he didn't invent the car but he brought it to the people

henry ford is a well-known uh airplane developer very cool guy very very cool he wrote a bunch of books

he um he tried to take over the automotive industry he was a champion for workers rights

he's a good dude i really like everything about henry ford can't find a fault

maybe besides his close relationship with edison if you didn't know there's a

ford edison house about an hour south from me um it's in fort meyers i think and it's really cool

to go see they had they had a compound where both of them would spend their winters uh henry

ford thomas edison and um what's i don't know his first name but um

firestone would all meet up for the winters at this one spot um and they would just

figure things out they had all kinds of rubber trees they would they had like a huge

rubber lab where they were trying to make like different kinds of tire compounds and all kinds

of stuff it's just a really cool compound and you can see they're they're only maybe

50 feet from each other where you can walk right to um right to henry ford's house from

edison's house and then their shop and their cars and their garage and it was all right there

and it was just this really beautiful compound really worth going to see it's a cool museum

definitely recommend it ford edison a state it's just super cool i mean they spent their winters

here in like the 30s i guess you i guess it would be um

uh i don't really have much of a opinion on the cunning seg dark matter engine i mean it our motor it

sounds cool everything about it seems like a cool situation i everything cunning seg does is

pretty awesome christian's a leader in the automotive industry so i kind of naturally fall

back to trust what he plans to do i assume it it performs the way that he's hoping but i don't know

i guess time will tell um but you gotta hop off and uh we will see what uh

when we do this again but thank you guys so much for tuning in i will see you next time

go follow the page bogetti studios on youtube if you want to hear the whole conversation back

again and we will see you next time
