About this episode

The hosts dive into a wide-ranging chat covering the NHRA drag racing season, including new drivers and team changes, plus the rising popularity and challenges of the IHRA organization. They explore the surprising variety of cars built on the Foxbody platform, revealing lesser-known models like the Lincoln Continental and Ford Granada. A detailed discussion on the new Mustang Dark Horse SC highlights its pricing and performance compared to the GT500 and GTD models. The episode also touches on rising fuel and material costs, 3D printing innovations for classic car parts, and a lively recount of a recent Disneyland trip. Plus, Brad promotes his 'Save the Chevelle' restoration series on YouTube and upcoming automotive art events.
