Welcome to Driving Well Awesome.

My name is Warren.

I'm Lane.

And I'm Art.

We're back at it once again.

Hey, do you guys have a box in your house or garage of cables, wires, connectors?

There are so many boxes and drawers like that that it's really bad.

Yeah.

Multiple stares.

Well, what happens to me, at least, is I will say to myself,

I should get rid of this crap.

Like, who the hell is using this?

You know, it's old stuff.

And then just the other day, I sucked up the headphones I'm wearing now.

You see, I have a white one here.

I had some old, just earbuds, and they got sucked into the vacuum cleaner and shredded.

Oh, shit.

Which I was vacuuming around it.

It was kind of like hanging on the ground a little bit.

I'm like, I could just vacuum around it.

Yeah, dude.

You made the wrong decision.

You were like, oh, you know what?

I could do it, dude.

I was like, afterwards, I'm like, that's the laziest move ever.

You just pick it up and just keep vacuuming.

So I needed a new headset, but it's the, in the Macbook, it's a regular aux input for headphones.

It's not a USB-C.

Oh, mini stereo?

Yeah.

So I had a US or a regular aux, old, old, old, like probably from my iPad,

iPod Nano or something, because it's things like kind of yellowing too.

You know, it's probably been in that box for 20 years, literally.

But you know what?

It renewed the whole box's existence.

It justified it.

Right.

It's like it rebirthed its purpose.

Yeah, it extended its lifetime.

Yeah, I have that.

I know it's a common thing for particularly men.

I know I'll be sexist about this.

I'm sorry, but it's a known thing that it's a male thing for some reason.

And I'm the same way.

I have all different sorts of weird shit and it's, it's a clear bin so that I can see it.

It's in the garage and I can see from the side.

So I can also kind of just a quick little eyeball, but everything from RCA to every version of USB

to different types of camera charges from over the years.

I have an Ulta camera charger that I just sifted through the other day.

But you're going to use that any day.

Any day you're going to get there.

There's absolutely going to be a moment where it's like, I've got it.

Yeah, there's all sorts of weird shit in there, but yeah, I don't know if that'll ever go away

because also it doesn't take up a ton of space.

It's like I have it in one of these little like it's the size of like a printer.

You know, it's not going to free up enough room to make it make sense.

And I have I have old devices to like an iPad iPod shuffle.

Do you guys remember that tiny little thing about that?

Yeah, you clip on for like running and stuff.

And it was like only a hundred songs.

I think total could fit on it and I have the charger.

I tried charging it the other day.

No dice doesn't do anything.

So it's kind of a bummer and then we have all digital cameras like Sarah's old

camera from college and mine that I used, you know, like literally 20 years ago.

Check the check the memory on that camera, the college camera.

You might find some gems in there.

That's true at the one megabit card that comes in it.

Speaking of old technology, I watched Mission Impossible to 1996,

the original, you know, with Tom Cruise, not the original Mission Impossible,

but the first movie back.

I feel like it's the last classic spy movie.

It's right around that GoldenEye era,

but all the tech is is still giant computers and floppy disks and very little

like cell phone involvement like upload, you know, uploading something using a

cell phone is like very novel.

So it's kind of that last classic because then you get to the newer ones and you're

talking about the, it's all flat screens now.

It's a pretty like modern looking laptops and the Motorola razor was invented,

but that seems like a still pretty like advanced cell phone.

Prior to that, the 96 version is a classic kind of look at that era.

I don't know your thoughts, but the first I don't know if I've ever seen any

Mission Impossible.

Oh, no way.

The 96 ones, the one where he goes on the where they're breaking out of the CIA

and he repels down.

He's like floating over the white floor because he can't touch it.

I'm just a million clips.

A lot of people like Mission Impossible like better than Bond.

I know and it's very similar.

It's almost like it's like a precursor to Fast and the Furious.

It's like it's like Fast and the Furious and James Bond made Mission Impossible

so they could run and they could walk.

Well, there was that that he did.

I believe all of his stunts in that movie, right, especially that.

He does in every movie.

Yeah, a lot of them.

They say he's going to die because, you know, he wants to make that one in

space now.

Oh, nice.

And yeah, they're like, hopefully Tom Cruise is alive at this point, you know,

whatever.

There's in the second one, there's some motorcycle stuff and some rock climbing

things that it's clearly a double, but he's there as well.

Like he might do part of it and then they have like the guy do the crazies part,

you know, like Tom Cruise is certainly like driving the right in the motorcycle

through town.

But then like when it comes to jumping over the semi truck or what have you,

it's a bro and a wig.

Any fun cars?

I can't remember.

You know, it's it's pretty disappointing on the car front that the nineteen ninety

six one doesn't really have anything great, but it in the two thousand was a

two thousand one.

I think it's a four or five year gap to the second one and that one has the

Audi TT and I think it's two thousand Audi TT and a nine and six cab.

So it's like double cabs.

Was it or I'm assuming a cab with the baseball stitch like whatever interior?

Well, yeah, the Audi was, I couldn't see the interior.

No, it wasn't baseball stitch, but then they're both pretty boring looking.

It was disappointing.

Definitely not James Bond when it comes to cars.

So anyways, that's all I got to say about that.

Cool.

That reminds me F three fifty five little James Bond stuff.

I was offered an F three fifty five in the colors that I do not want.

And it is a car that I'm going to keep because it's technically going to be

off market for a while and I'm going to hold that dream close to my chest and

then maybe at some point if I really it's like it's like quietly offered

currently.

Yes, it's someone that we know that's like knows that I want one of these and I

said and I've and I'll continue to say this.

I want a driver.

I want a high mileage, well maintained driver like that's exactly what I want

because of also the ultimately the cost, but also because it's going to be the

most reliable and it's a car that I can use.

So I'm not worried about that.

So this car has seventy five thousand miles on super rad.

It's a it's a manual, but it's a read over tan and it's the nastiest.

And it's the palest fucking ugliest hand and and the prices is you know relatively

affordable, but not not quite enough for me right now.

But but I was thinking like if you know, it just it just reminded me of you know,

we're talking through this and you know, car movies and all that like red car,

very iconic.

They do look fantastic, but I think I would probably do something sacrilegious if I

got a red one and I would probably have it wrapped.

Yeah.

Because it's like, you know, yeah, like I just don't want a red one.

It's like an especially the other thing with that is that I also determined the

actual reason and besides the that I don't want a spider.

Sorry.

And I was just going through the thought process there and I was thinking about this

over the weekend because the spiders are really cheap still or relatively cheap

and you know, you get the sound, you get the coastal, you know, top down motoring

experience, which is super cool.

They still look good with the top down all that, but I'm worse.

Better sound, dude.

Better sound.

Yeah.

But I'm like way too self-conscious of like being exposed.

It's like too flashy and it's like, I don't, I don't, I don't know if you have the roof

up though.

Not with the roof.

It looks like shit with a roof up.

It looks like shit with the roof up, but the roof down is what it's all about.

Right.

With that car and it's like, and it's just one of those things where it's stupid.

I know I'm sorry.

I'm going to get judged.

We've gotten judged for like not wanting to drive hot rods or whatever or muscle cars

before, but this is like, it's a really big deal to me.

It's like, yeah, like I know that I'm just sitting at a stoplight, like driving

around town and like it's just weirdables in general or a tough sell, I think for me

at least.

And yeah.

Is there any factor of safety that comes into play a little bit?

Not, not, not as much, but yeah.

They just have nothing.

Those have roll bars and stuff.

Oh, they do.

95, right?

They have, they have to have, right?

I don't know.

I'm just like a, I guess I'm assuming just because like Mercedes had already come up

with the, I never think of that.

How'd that back in like 89 dude?

Well, right.

It's also like the way that I see convertibles, even if they have roll bars though is like

the type of environment that we drive on, which is like rocks and trees and branches.

Yes.

And like a roof helps with some of that, at least to deflect it a little bit.

Where it's like, even if you have a roll bar, that shit's coming right in.

But yeah, I mean it's a little bit that.

I mean, then there's the torsional rigidity stuff.

If I actually did have one and used it as intended, I probably would get frustrated

with that, but I think, you know, overall, like if I looked at it just like objectively

as a car, as a cool car, like I think they look, they do look really cool with the top

down.

Obviously you get all that sound, which is what those cars, you know, 50% of the experience

right for me.

But it's just, yeah, like it's just the, the, I am too self-conscious about it.

It's a, and even though it's a relatively inexpensive Ferrari, it's just a Ferrari.

It's weird.

Yeah.

I would look at it a different way though.

Like, I mean, you could definitely, it has a, it's an automatic roof dude.

It's not like you're not stuck having the top down at all times or anything.

But I would want to, that's the whole point.

But, but I mean, but no, but I mean, you could choose to have it down when you're driving

on the, on a cool road and then you come, you're driving through town and you can just put

the roof up, you know, that's true.

It's not, you don't have to like, yeah.

Yeah, but it's the whole experience.

Like just imagine like driving like along.

I mean, we both have this experience.

We can drive along the waterfront palm trees, you know, outrun style top down.

Like for me, it's like, I love it, but I like, I, it's the opposite.

As you know, like for the most part folks that own a car with a prancing horse on it,

they're looking for the attention and they are driving like, you know, that's part of

the experience.

And then, and that's like not what I'm looking for at all.

Right.

It's the opposite.

I actually, it's all, it's more for me than anything else.

Right.

And like it's just an optics thing.

And it's, it's down.

I think it's a big, it's a big one though.

For the record, according to Google, there is no roll hoop or roll bar on the

factory cars, but the challenge race cars, they did make, they equip them with for

that.

So you can get them, people add them in other words, but you're talking like half

cage and all that shit.

So no roll over protection other than that sturdy windshield.

Yeah.

And again, I mean, you know, it's a, it's questionable even if like a regular roll

hoop would help.

I know that's the whole thing.

It's like we drive all these cars with the assumption like that you're not going to

crash because they're all pretty scared.

Like yeah.

My M three is not dude.

Yeah.

And that's like the newest of the bunch, right?

Like, you know, we, we dream of having these like 300 SLs and stuff.

Right.

Or totally, you know, 50 GTO or just like, I mean, I was, I was on a drive two weeks

ago and going up this, this mountain to an observatory and that road is like cliffs

on the one side and you're going pretty good pace and it's like, you know, the car behind

me was a brand new GT four and he's like, if he goes off, he's probably like totally

fine.

If I go away and dead, you know, I'm going to give you that salute emoji.

Yeah, exactly.

Good luck.

Let's do some questions.

Shall we?

So you think that's not good.

We've got some good ones actually.

I'm sorry.

Newest first.

Okay.

Matt Chewers says, could you make your best three car garage with one, a front engine

Porsche?

All right.

Let's start there.

Front engine Porsche.

Yes.

It's a 944 Carrera.

Oh, interesting.

To your time out of the 924 Carrera.

Yeah, 24.

Okay.

That's a really good one.

Yeah.

My mind went immediately to nine, six, eight club sport.

Okay.

There was the RS nine, six, eight, which is like insane.

Those are like seven figures now for some reason.

You know, I'm out the turbocharged ones.

Mine goes straight to the nine, six, eight turbo and those are turbo.

Yeah.

There's four of them made or something like that.

Yeah.

And there's seven figures, right?

Yeah.

So what about a nine, twenty eight club sport?

Those are pretty sweet.

Yeah.

But is that okay?

So that's GTS.

It's pretty good.

It's really good.

Next up is a four cylinder BMW.

Thirty M three.

Well, you got to go sport Evo, right?

If this is your dream.

Yeah.

Just go the ultimate version of that car.

I wouldn't want the base one.

Like Evo two.

Yeah.

A sport Evo is the three, which is the last one.

The best.

So I would go all the way to the end of them.

Yeah.

For sure.

2.5.

Yeah.

That's it.

And then a front wheel drive American car.

Oh, that's the toughest.

He's saying factory cars only.

Front wheel drive American car is really tricky.

You know, you want to Tornado Warren?

I want like a seventy eight El Dorado.

I've turned the letter.

Oh, jeez, Louise.

Dude, I don't even I can't even.

Well, wait, wait, wait.

So what?

I got it.

I got Fiesta.

Focus.

Focus RS.

No, that's front.

That's all that's all wheel drive.

Damn.

There's also your Omni GLHS.

Warren, I know.

I know.

I feel like I can do better than that.

You know what?

Fuck it.

I am going to go with like a seventy five or whatever that

huge El Dorado.

I want to fear loading lanes going loading El Dorado and how

already have super sports cars that are awesome and rad and

everything.

So I'm going the opposite end of the spectrum.

Lane PT cruiser turbo manual dude.

Dude, I know dude.

Was there was there like a homologation neon or something I

can get?

Yeah.

ACR.

Yeah.

The ACR is super cool.

Yeah.

The SCCA little guy.

Yeah.

I'll do that dude.

Just because high.

I like the ads.

Hello.

Because.

Dang.

Hmm.

Yeah.

There's also it's a weird Pontiacs too.

And that's not good.

I'm thinking like what is that?

If you like cladding, those are the cars for you or that

McLaren turbo one.

You know what I'm talking about?

Yeah.

That's I mean it's cool.

I don't know how well it drives Ford Escort GT's of the

world.

Oh yeah.

It doesn't wait.

Oh, it does.

Can we go?

You're a Ford Ford probe.

He says he says American car factory cars only.

So shit.

So we can't go next three or something.

Now I'm going to say it's going to be something that was

sold in them in America.

America.

I'll go with that.

Olds 442 cut lists for like nineteen eighty nine.

I think it is right.

The quad 442 thing that like like in their marketing said

was better than an E 30 m three.

Oh yeah.

You're really going with that dude.

The red like the red one.

We got a Radwood Austin.

Exactly.

Yeah, that's a euro sport.

But yeah, those are the Lumina euro sports.

So I think we see there's a pattern here, right?

It's like the opposite.

It's like the I like the ultimate if you know, you know cars

right versus like trying to like be like this ostentatious

like, you know, fucking flashy dude.

So that would be rad.

Like who the hell know?

Yeah, it's you.

There's like 2026 arts not flashy guys.

You know this never been flashy.

It's all about you know what I want.

John rise says what's the best factory shade of yellow?

Whoa.

I've been really enjoying a 993 and pastel yellow.

Dude, I like the pastel.

I hate 993 and speed same and like the pastel is sick.

Dude, imagine a pastel career GT so much better than feiyans.

I am it's be you pronounce it Beyonce.

I don't like pastel.

I like the color, but I don't like it on a 93 because it looks

like an Easter egg.

It's like too bubbly.

It's like too round.

I mean, that's a 993 in general is too bubbly.

But then you add you add the pastel yellow and you've got

yourself a little Easter egg.

You want to do a little pink squiggly lines across the hood

and I think they're better in person.

I hear what you're saying, but I've seen two of them in person

and they really especially like a C four S or C C or career

S in yellow looks great.

Okay, so I'm going to go.

I really like spa yellow on s two thousands, which is a

metallic yellow.

It's really got a lot of orange in it.

That one's really cool, especially in the sun.

Yeah, really pop.

Of course, cream or whatever the hell the of all vote 850 our

color is.

That's really good too.

And that's more of a pastel.

It's more of a pastel.

Dakar yellow is great.

Dakar yellow one original is great.

I like both.

It gets a little too, too poppy for me.

I like there's like, I mean, there's a couple of these like

the stem of this is like the picture that I posted was a

Talbot yellow seventy six nine thirty, which is a very orange

yellow.

I think it looks kind of cool on that car, but I think over

again, like I don't think that's a good car.

If the car doesn't have bumpers and stuff, it's like a late

model car or, you know, if it doesn't have black and chrome

to break it up, but I think that looks great on like 70s,

nine elevens.

Yeah, there's some of those like Bahama yellow is a cool

color on an old car.

That's like already on the very, very orange.

Yeah, but that is a really good color though.

Yeah.

And yeah, I'm looking at the picture that you posted.

You know, the funny thing is that you say about breaking it

up, like it does look good broken up like this because you

have a lot of the black trim, but I kind of would be down to

have color matched wheels.

I think it would look pretty sick.

I mean, it could be out there for sure.

Yeah, we had that yellow nine thirty at Radwood Amelia a couple

years ago.

I remember I had yellow interior too.

Yeah, yeah.

It was so cool.

It was, but it was the right.

I don't know.

It also had the graphics package, which breaks it up again.

It had like the great like thing on the side, you know, the

turbo thing.

Yeah.

Helped a lot.

It's funny.

I own a yellow car obviously, but I hate a lot of yellows,

especially fly yellow on Ferraris.

No, good.

Worst colors and I've never liked it.

It doesn't look great with a lot of black because it just

looks tacky and yeah.

Yeah.

I've never liked it.

And some people it's like their favorite.

Just yesterday I was coming home and like two blocks from my

house.

This dude flew by me in the opposite direction in a brand new

nine nine.

Sorry, nine nine two point two, whatever GT three RS and it was

this like fly yellow, like a really, really bright, gross yellow

and that has a lot of trim to break stuff up because it's got

all these black gills and wings and everything and it looked

it says as bad as it gets for me.

Like that is the worst color.

I think for that car.

Yeah.

I agree.

Yeah.

Automotive automotive omnivore says I rarely exceed the limit

subtraction these days.

How much of this is a maturing driving style and how much is due

to rubber compounds in all tire categories becoming much

stickier in the last 25 years.

Even the Michelin LTX MS on our 2013 Escalade will carry more

speed in a corner than I'm willing to subject passengers to.

This is like Lane's Lane's show he wants to make which is old

cars with modern tires and redo all the all the speed tests.

Yeah.

All the all the graphs.

I think both are true.

Tires are way better.

Both are true.

Absolutely.

I mean it would be it was a lot easier to break traction right

with like old shittier or the older shittier rubber, but now

it's like you have to really make an effort.

Yeah.

I you know what's funny about that is that with the the e-golf I

have like low rolling resistance Michelin's on there.

And and you know if I like to play this dance of like basically

trying to like play like push them but be on the limit but like

not without sliding them the opposite right like trying to

like see how much grip I can extract out of them.

And I was thinking about this very recently.

I'm like dude, like this is like probably on par with like a

good summer tire 15 years ago, you know, and it's like yeah,

it's in its low rolling resistance.

It's like literally like the opposite of grippy tires and

they're like pretty decent, which is like it's wild man.

That's crazy.

And you're talking like 15 years, not 30 years ago.

Right.

Like that's what's crazy.

It's like imagine like think about 1987 or you know like when

my 9 11 came out, like the tires that came on that thing

compared to what we have today, right?

Like 40 P zeros have such a crazy tread block and yeah,

the compound was all hard.

And well, do you know what the crazy thing is that we're not

crazy, but it's like the most like over or what is it called

exaggerated thing.

The whole like the widowmaker thing right like with 9 11

and specifically with 9 30s is that they were on those shitty

tires, right?

And they also ran to 25s in the back and like you put modern

rubber on a 9 30 and like yeah.

Are they cats?

They're so sticky dude.

You're you're good.

They're so easy.

Yeah.

Like I mean there's 260 horsepower 280 horse like it's it's not

a lot of power.

It's like it can even if you do the whole lift off thing, it has

enough grip to you know not worry, not care.

Yeah.

And then talk about like the cars that are underpowered with

too much tire.

Like nowadays you'll have a, you know, I don't know E 30, let's

say, and it's got like the grippiest, stickiest tire as

possible.

Amiata perfect.

Yeah.

Perfect.

Yeah.

And you can have like zero fun with it because the tires can you'll

never exceed the grip really.

Well, you yeah, that's the thing is like I got into it.

It was a discussion with someone about this because they were

like boasting about like basically tracking Amiata and being all

over these high power cars and stuff in and it was like damp

conditions.

And I'm like, well, yeah, like you have no power.

Like you can use all of your power and all of that momentum.

And if you have a car that has a significantly bigger like foot,

like actual like footprint, right?

In terms of the actual tread and contact patch, that's way more

prone to hydroplaning and they have more power.

So it's way more.

It's a much more challenging drive, right?

So whereas Amiata has got the skinny tires and they're sticky and

they're going to sink.

They're going to carve through that shit and you have very little

power.

So that's why they're so good at autocross, right?

Because like you can use all of the power and all of that momentum

and not really lose any of that in just by sliding them and yaw

and slip angle.

So no, it's a it's definitely a thing.

But yeah, I think the perfect example of what he's asking is the 930.

It's like, like, yes, in period, I bet it was sketchy as hell, right?

Like, I mean, if you were like as immediate, you would light them up

when they would come on boost and it would come on boost at the wrong

time because you're blowing it and you didn't really know it versus

now where it's like comes on boost and you put all that power down

like nothing.

It's like, they don't, you know, it's no big deal.

Totally.

Potential TTT asks, why do all red Hondas turn pink?

Milano pink is the is the joke.

Yeah.

It's Milano red.

That's the color that goes pink.

I think it's just, yeah.

It's just bad paint.

Like Honda has bad paint.

Early, early Tacoma's late Toyota pickups in red all turn pink

or just like start fading completely where the paint falls off.

Yep.

And you see it where the cab and hood fade, but the bed doesn't

because I think they use two different types of paint for those

those different productions.

Like you had two different paint booths is my theory.

I could be wrong.

Or maybe like the truck beds were made in a completely different

factory.

They cut it out.

And then they ship them in cab.

Basically the cab forward is a different is fading where my friend

has a truck like this.

It's red.

It's like a 95 or 96 or whatever Tacoma.

And it's doing that exact thing.

So for whatever reason.

And some of it is single stage too.

Right.

Like that is that is a thing.

Buddy of mine in high school had was like a 91 or 92 pickup.

And he, you know, even when it must have been what like, you know,

nine years old and it was already doing that.

And I remember we polished it and it was like brand new again.

You know, you can bring it right back because that was single stage.

So not all like, not the case with Honda's in particular,

but I know what Toyota's that is a thing.

Just want to drive underscore asks two questions.

Any thoughts on doing a YouTube live or Instagram live show

again to have crowd participation?

And are you able to share any plans for a northeast Radwood?

Any thoughts there boys?

Oh, wow.

I think we'd have to make it like an event, right?

It's like, uh, not, not the norm.

It's almost like we, yeah.

Yeah.

Instagram live is pretty easy to do.

Um, maybe in the same room together.

Yeah.

We started doing it during, we were doing it during COVID just

to get some kind of interactions.

We weren't doing anything else.

Um, but yeah, it'd be cool.

And then have a Radwood northeast.

I look at Warren over there.

Um, you know, it's, it's always on our mind.

Um, but yeah, we're, we're, we've been allocated a budget for

the year and right now we have prioritized other regions.

I know that was a bad word to use, but, um, it really kind of

boils down to, you know, what we can do and, and we have a

certain number of events that we can put on.

And as of right now, we don't have a date for a northeast event.

It's definitely of interest.

There may be some angles in collaborating with Greenwich,

the Greenwich concor and doing something with them.

But as of right now, we don't have a date or an event lined up,

but it's definitely, um, on our minds.

We would love to.

I'll just say that you're on our minds.

Oh, folks.

Nine eleven says Radwood era car with manual steering, high

engine swap with manual transmission under $20,000 ideas.

Okay.

So he wants to do an engine swap or this is kind of like a

fever dream question here.

Um, I think if you're doing it, if it, if you're talking about

doing a swap, you're never going to be under 20 grand as art

learned.

No.

Um, so that's the top one buy one.

That's done.

Now if we're just looking at a Radwood era car with those

features, we might be able to come up with something manual

steering, high revving engine and a manual transmission like

maybe an MR two.

Is that?

I don't know.

How about an 86?

There you go.

I like it.

That's the one.

I mean, but my car has manual steering, high revving engine,

manual trans, but you're not going to get there under 20 K.

Um, and 86 already comes with all of these things without having

to swap.

Um, you can get a manual steering rack.

You can get, um, you know, the four AG is high revving at 675,

I think 7,500 RPM redline, um, and manual trans and they're,

you know, you can find them for like high teens and like driver

condition and you can definitely swap an even higher revving version

of that motor, the 20 valve, which would be sick and I would love

to see.

How about like an Integra or something from that era?

Would you like those are high revving, right?

Yeah.

I mean manual steering, you would have to delete it, which I don't

know.

They're not manual.

No, manual steering is overrated, dude.

Um, I like manual steering.

I kind of agree with you, Lane.

It's overrated.

It's it's nice, but if you have a good power, you have a good power

steering.

Well, this is coming from Lane is also a Porsche guy.

So I think that's Porsche has done such a good job with their,

like they're just like very, very lightly assisted, right?

Like they keep and so that's key is like any of a light front end

and a light front end.

So the, the, that combination is great.

Um,

I mean, that being said, my nine 11 does not have power steering.

It's all manual, but you know, like a nine six four, you're not,

you don't get in that and go, Oh man, I would have manual steering

compared to my car.

Like,

or my E 30 is like, yeah.

Yeah.

Or a modern or a modern or a nine 44, dude, drive a nine 44

manual rack and a regular one, people that claim they want manual

rack or just want it because they can say that because the power

steering rack is so much better, dude.

My mark two GTI was almost impossible to drive once I did all the

suspension and it was just like at low speeds, it took two hands

for sure and planning anyone that drove the car.

Like, yeah, you had to like think about it, you know,

instead of just one handed whipping around.

So, uh, 62 Roadster says, what's the most resourceful you've been

in the field to get a car going that won't move on its own power.

Um, I had a recent, uh, roadside repair that I had to do,

um, when my throttle cable connection broke at the pedal.

So I lost all throttle, um, thought I broke the cable and then

found that the grommet that connects to the back,

the cable was or to the pedal was blown up.

So I was under there using some of Peter B's grommets and zip ties

and tape and half of mango and some tin foil and then, uh, got it going.

So I was able to drive not only the rest of that day, the entire

last day of the rally and all the way back to Santa Cruz on this

janky ass repair.

And so yeah, that was, that's what comes to mind.

Nice. Um, you did not do the rally thing where you put a dude

like your co-driver in the engine bay and actually like manually

doing the throttle.

Dang, that is a miss.

I should have done that.

Like windshield wiper where you're like, give like a string.

Exactly.

Co-drivers going back and forth.

Yeah.

That would have been nice.

Um, I can't.

I don't know.

Art just hires people now.

He doesn't do it.

I mean, but it's not flashy.

Okay.

It was just, they're wearing dark outfits.

The car jumps in someone else's car.

Um, you know what?

What I've done is that just comes to mind.

It's not necessarily a roadside repair, but, um, I was once

changing a water pump on a mark one, uh, GTI and the one of the

bolts broke off and, um, and so instead of actually like going

through the motions of like pulling it out and everything.

And I needed to like, it was one of those things.

I was at Matt's house of all places in college and, um, I needed

to get home and I'm like, shit, I'm not going to be able to do

this now.

So I used a vice grip to actually clamp it back on.

Uh, and so I managed to hold it in place against the block that

way just to get me home.

I filled it with water because it was already leaking.

I needed to replace it.

So, but I was able to refill it, get myself home and then repair

it later.

But, um, that's kind of this, but like, you know what?

One thing that comes to mind for you are is your E 30 on that

rally where the radiator hose or the cool hose was leaking.

I forgot about that.

And you went like full blown bandaid fix, but like really legit.

Like how many zip ties were involved in that?

Oh yeah.

What Warren's talking about is, um, um, one of the, uh, the

radiator hoses split and, uh, and so what I did is I, I duct taped

it with gorilla tape and then I added like maybe like 10 zip ties

around it to reinforce it, to keep it closed and it totally worked.

I actually drove it at first look.

You're like, there's no way this is going to work.

It's going to find its way out at some, some point I'll get too

hot and just, uh, nature finds a way or yeah.

Well, what I learned is that it's actually that, that cooling

systems are actually like relatively low pressure.

So that, that was, that was very helpful.

Like, you know, because otherwise if it was anywhere else, um, I,

I wouldn't have worked, but I drove it one full day on the

rally like that and I drove all the way home.

Like what was that?

Like 250 miles.

Probably probably yeah.

Yeah.

That was, yeah, that was a good one.

I have a, um, I don't know.

I probably have some I can't remember, but we did, uh, we bought

a lemons car once and it broke down a side of the road.

We had to use like, uh,

Oh, safety pin for the distributor for the rotor.

Yeah.

We had to like put it on the, on the actual rotor cause the rotor

was broken. Um, that was a thing.

And then on the rat on our, um, actual on our lemons car,

dude, we did some gnarly stuff like mid race repairs.

Like we had a shock break in half and we just had to have it.

We like had our neighbors next to us like we jacked it up,

straighten it up and then they welded it just solid, solid,

just solid welded the shock.

I mean, that was pretty gnarly and finish the race on that.

So with that one, one shock, not shocking.

We lost our whole exhaust or the hangers all broke and the

muffler was dragging and someone just had this like piece of

metal strap that we just straight up drilled straight into

the bottom of the car and held the whole thing up like a big,

you know, bandaid.

Yeah.

I took a, I borrowed my brother's sob to go to LA for a

concert with Prasa than Brian and, um, we're going to the house

of blues in LA in, in Hollywood.

And on the way there, we hit one of those, like one of the,

the, the, what was it?

Good rich or the Ford Explorer tires.

Ford Explorer.

Oh, Ford Explorer.

But what were the tires like?

What was the fire stones?

One of the fire stones, like it right in front of us,

just the tire, the tread just came off of it and it goes under

our car and it, and it knocked the exhaust loose.

So the exhaust was hanging.

It like broke in the middle, the center before the center

muffler and it was hanging.

So like the back was hanging down.

So like the opposite way of you, you would want it to do, you

know what I'm saying?

So it was like against the, yeah, it was catching.

Um, and we, we had to pull, we, we actually drove it like that

for a while and it was gnarly loud and scraping.

And then we were able to, um, we, we went to a, um, like a,

like a dry cleaner and we just got a bunch of clothes hangers

and we like wired them up just so the thing wasn't dragging

basically.

And then we were able to get it fixed like the next day,

but, uh, and make it to the concert that night.

Um, that's awesome.

Yeah.

So that's for you.

Byron in space has an excellent question here.

He starts by saying a scenario.

You're gifted your dream car for me a per saying type 35 B

Bugatti, Bugatti, but in order to drive it, you must eat three

seven 11 hot dogs every time.

The nasty ones at the back really skinny, wrinkly, likely pig,

pig anus with no condiments on a bun that may have existed

during the civil war.

Do you take the deal all day, dude?

I'll eat all fucking day, dude.

Same.

That sounds yeah.

I'm already a sleazy bastard when it comes to food like this.

So I, I'm not really like, Oh my God, never.

And I mean, yeah, three feels kind of easy to like that's not like,

especially the dry little ones in the back.

It's basically one night.

No, I mean question for Byron in space.

Why the per saying version?

Why not a real one?

I know, right?

Yeah.

It's your dream big.

Um, yeah, some people will be like my dream cars like art did this

the other day.

I can't remember what we were talking about.

It was like my, it was dream something.

And he's like F 355 Ferrari is, I was like, not a, what about F 40?

I'm like, Oh shit.

Yeah.

Oh yeah.

I always go to like in my mind with a lot of these questions.

It's like, I, there's, it's Radwood era, right?

Like cause that's a common thing or a budget.

Like there's assuming like a realistic budget and, and sometimes

there is no budget like in this case.

So go for the percent and go for the real deal.

I mean, absolutely.

This would be a pretty easy one.

You might even like just do all three and one go smash them all

together, Joey chestnut style, dip them in some water and have a

field day like a freshman at a cake party, you know, take those

hogs down.

Hey, maybe I ended up buying a 711 that I don't know a bunch of

franchises and I become, you know, the 711 guy.

You're cool.

There you go.

Be cool.

Any updates on this bullshit 711 rumor that they're going to

have Japanese food at some of the locations?

Fuck them for even saying that those bitch ass fuckers.

I think they're, I know they're trying really hard to read, like

reinvent their image, right?

But I still, you know, I still drive by the 711s in town.

There's still a bunch of bums and weirdos hanging out and they're

always really gross.

And like it's, I have no desire to hang out as 711.

And the people kind of suck that work there.

Like I don't blame them really, but like they're not friendly.

Like it's all, it's not like Japanese.

We're also, we're just not built.

Like we're not made for that dude.

It's like trash people go to 711s and like it's just like, it

would have to, you'd have to change the whole culture.

And then like the whole thing about the 711s there as they do,

like it's like three shipments a day of like fresh product.

Like we don't, like it just doesn't work.

Like it doesn't, it doesn't work.

Like they want to bring in some like one or two things.

I'm sure that would be fine, but it's not like it would change 711s.

Yeah.

They have their place here and they're a different place, right?

Totally. Yeah.

And I'm curious to see, I mean, it's one of those things that I'm

keeping an eye on, but like, and you know, there are some angles

for us to collaborate with them and stuff, but it's like, it's

just a really, it's a, it's a challenging deal.

Like, and I know that some of them, I'm sure some 711s are nice.

Like I've seen some of the pictures, Larry Chen goes to some

and you know, LA or whatever, and they seem okay.

But like a lot of them are established and they're in certain places, right?

Like it's like by default, like from an actual real estate standpoint,

they're purchased in sort of CD areas and like they're not places

you want to go park your really cool car at.

So we don't have any, we don't have any of, well, I should take that back.

Around here, there are none that are just walkable.

They all have, they all need parking lots.

Whereas if there was a little cool boutique 711 in downtown Santa Cruz

that just had, you know, it was more of a, yeah, yeah, kind of destination.

Dude, was that one on seventh or whatever dude?

Or like if this was Japan, there would be one right down the street,

like in the little neighborhood, like in Seabright next to my house, right?

There would be a 711 right there and it would be like parking.

Yeah, it would be, it would be, and there would be one in your neighborhood

or something, right?

Totally.

That's the way it would be in Japan.

It would be the place you went and got milk every week and stuff like that.

It's just not the way we use 711s.

I know.

Anyways, if anyone hears where this is happening, shout out.

I did look it up and there was no information.

AskKline says, is a Radwood era car with a post 2000 engine swap still Radwood?

Oh yeah.

In fact, we have an award for it, Radmod.

And we usually honor a car with said engine swap or all sorts of swap things post 2000

because it keeps the whole hobby alive.

At least that's our take.

Yeah, I think, I mean, I would say arts car is still very Radwood era.

For sure.

And it is awesome to see this like ingenuity and all the ideas that go into keeping a car

or just modernizing a car in a way with a new engine.

100%.

Yep.

And the other way is true as well.

I just saw a BMW i8 with a rotary swap.

So keep those.

And I ate with a.

Well, I'm saying I said the other way is true where you're keeping it rad by swapping

a Radwood era engine into.

Yeah.

I mean, yeah, I think, yeah, the swap thing is very common.

That's rad mods at our events typically have a different engine and drivetrain and that's

one way to do it.

In theory, like another way to do that would be through like putting a new interior or

something like that in a car, right?

Like in theory, that would work if it was well done and integrated.

But but yeah, typically it involves like modern componentry in a Radwood era of chassis.

And we see, you know, LS swaps in a lot of these cars or modern AMG swaps in old

Mercedes, things like that.

Yep.

Bobby Reed with the cars.

Last question.

What animal would you like to see domesticated next raccoon, Fox, something else?

That's a great question.

Bobby next been thinking a lot about this.

I think wombat.

Oh, well, they're cuddly little bastards.

They're cute.

They're cuddly marsupial.

I'm sorry.

But yes, they are.

And the only problem is they have long ass claws.

So you'd have to get those claws figured out.

But a little cuddly wombat.

I'm pretty sure that wombats poop in cubes, right?

They poop cubes.

I mean, that's not to like.

Yeah.

I mean, wombats are very cute.

I just feel like I like the Fox angle here and all these other because like I love that

they're also very like interesting.

Like I feel like a lot of that's just kind of kind of like a sit in the corner and not

do your other pets and fuck shit up.

Dude, foxes are so cool.

Like I've seen, I mean, they people do domesticate them.

I know next this is already happening, right?

And they're really cute and they're basically a dog, right?

The key being that you raise them and not pull them from the wild because then hashtag

basically a dog.

Basically dog.

Hashtag coyote.

There's a guy on Instagram.

I forget his name.

Who the hell wants a coyote?

They're so cool.

I love coyotes too.

Why?

They're scraggly.

No, they're not.

They're really pretty.

If you look at them up close, we'll see.

No, they're not.

I think they're kind of, yeah, gnarly.

Compared to your golden retriever, they're not pretty at all.

They're just gangly little fuckers.

I knew somebody, a friend of a friend who had a pet skunk.

Obviously they de-skunked them or whatever, but very soft fur.

They're cuddly.

Oh, perfect.

Perfect pet.

Yeah.

You know, we had a, we famously had a guy with a possum on his shoulder at a morning

motors.

Oh yeah.

That's true.

I don't, I don't see that being good.

They're got a rat tail and a gnarly face and fucking claws.

Let's get back to wombat here.

There's a bunch of opportunities for cuddling, you know, let's get into that.

Yeah.

I'm just going through like, like you go up into the series.

What are you finding?

I wish that you could domesticate a bear because they're like the coolest, but,

but they, they talking if they would.

Here's the thing.

You, you find you have to find something that keeps them at like a two month old

stage of life, right?

That's the thing with a lot of these animals where they're so cute when they're,

when they're little and then they turn into these big.

Yeah.

Well, so we need to like manipulate their genetics.

Yeah.

I mean, yeah that, but I think they're, they're so cool.

They're, they're really pretty.

They're really in cuddly.

Dude, imagine cuddling a bear.

That's as cuddly as it gets and they're really intelligent, but they want to

kill you.

So it's like not ideal, right?

Like if we can figure that one out, not a total.

I mean, you could say a better solution.

There would be a panda like a miniature panda because they're herbivores to start with.

They're still stupid as hell and they're pissed off.

They get really mad and yeah, they get mad, right?

Scratch you and fucked up dude.

How about like when Lane's talking about right the miniaturization?

How about miniature polar bear?

How cool would that be like?

That'd be so dope dude.

You'd pull so many checks are I'm super down in my in my after five spider in

the passengers.

Yeah, dude.

That'd be insane.

That's a whole lifestyle to be the guy.

Yeah, you would be the guy.

You get weird, weird hair.

I did learn recently that there is no documented death by cheetah for humans.

Cheetahs have always been really friendly with humans and apparently they're if you

look into it, they're very social.

They're they're basically a house cat.

Like they're super friendly.

They love to cuddle.

Well, no, they have Honda in there now too, right?

No, I'm sorry.

No, no, they're making it.

Oh, it's Ford.

Yeah, but I thought they're making their own engines.

No, it's a Ford thing.

Now it is.

It is not just Red Bull.

I'm clueless.

Dude.

I'm sorry.

Did you guys?

Did you guys see the F1 driver challenge and then the guy

from big time hosted it?

No, that was kind of cool that they got like big times

getting big dude.

They hosted a Max for stopping and it was in Ricardo part of it.

I saw Ricardo popped in and just like hung out and said hey mates

and the bailed but yeah, it was like they picked Ford's to go around

the track and and do lap times basically.

It was cool.

Cool man.

Check it out.

Let's start here Alpine Alpine.

Yeah.

What's their name?

I don't even know what engine they're using this because they're

not using their own running gear now.

Power unit is Mercedes Benz.

Alpine.

No idea who Alpines lead sponsors.

It is the BWT Alpine Formula One team.

Okay.

Still be BWT is hanging in there.

Aston Martin.

What do you got Aston Martin Honda Lagonda?

You had Honda in there, but no that Honda is the power unit.

It's not part of the actual team name is Aston Martin Aramco.

Oh, I was going to say like Levitra or something.

Amici?

Williams.

Atlassian.

Yeah.

I like that Audi.

Revolution.

Revolution F1 team.

That will be Gabriel, Bortoletto and Nico Hulkenberg.

All right.

Cadillac.

Cadillac Formula One team.

That's right.

Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas.

Ferrari, Scuderia, Ferrari, HP, we talked about that.

But all right, Haas. Oh shit. What's Haas doing do Haas? Oh, dude, I think it's

just Haas up one. Yeah, it is wrong. TGR for Toyota Gazoo racing. That's

right. Oh yeah. I remember that. Sick. That's kind of rad. Haas F one team.

Their livery is very cool. It's all GR focus. That's Ocon and Bearman are on

that sucker and that's a Ferrari power plan. By the way, Ocon's not looking. His

future is not looking very bright. McLaren.

Oh, they won the championship last year. I don't know if you guys know that.

Oh yeah, they're Google or something Google McLaren. It's chrome, right?

Negative. No, this is their official team name, which is so sad. McLaren

one master card F one team. So gross. Is that gross or what? Wow? All right,

Mercedes. What do you got? Patronus? So are they still? Yes, but the official

team name you got it wrong is Mercedes AMG Patronus formula one team. Gotcha.

Good job. Racing, racing bowls. Oh, what are they doing these days? Oh, they

had the crazy one. Remember they were the first ones to be like, well, he's a

master car car, right? V car. Yeah, but remember they were the first to have

like the crazy, like all the names on it. Yeah. Like, this is the saddest one.

Visa cash up racing bowls, formula one team, but a garbage as Liam Lawson and

Arvid Linblad master cards almost as bad, but at least it's like a reputable. I

know older. Yeah. Yeah. It was just visa. Go to hell. Cash. All right. Red Bull.

This is a Max Verstappen and Isaac Hadjar. I heard him. Red Bull Oracle

left one team very close. I'm just picturing that Oracle on the side. You're

so close. I'm going to give it to you. Oracle Red Bull Racing. Oh, the opposite.

There's no F1 team involved. They're not enough to get paid. Oh, just Red Bull

Racing Red Bull Racing to be there and those are Ford engines. Yep. Red Bull

Ford, whatever that means. Did you guys read about that? The the the Farley and

the GM CEO going back and forth like talking to you because like like just

saying how little like each of their teams have involved or are involved with

the development. I like it. I like that stuff. Yeah, it'll be interesting.

Cadillac Audi. Have you guys seen the cars that reveal? I know they're not the

reels. They're all mock-ups, but like I love the proportions. They look like way

more compact, way tight, right? Yeah. Yeah. I think that Haas cars out now. I

read an article about it today and yeah, very tight and the GR livery looks

rad. It does look cool. I'm looking at it right now. It looks like the black,

black, red and white. Yeah. Yeah, that's a good job. I'm looking at it now. I

would like it if it had like a pop of like orange or blue or something, but I

like it. Probably get some different. It does up blue on the tires on the one

picture. I'm looking at. Yeah, probably get some different livers throughout

the year. Different looks, but yeah, it's rad. It's cool looking. So anyways,

there you go. You guys suck, but other than that, doing great. Yeah, we're

horrible. That's the hardest question too. It's like just terrible sponsorship

money grabs going on and they completely changed their entire identity just to

do it. Yeah. I mean, I mean the whole, they've kind of always been that way

though, right? Like, like our favorite, my, one of my favorites is Canon, the

Canon Williams, right? I mean, Marlboro McLaren, like that was like how good

is that? I don't think they would get title billing on, you know, letterhead.

It would John player, a special JPS Lotus. Yeah, wouldn't it be like Lotus and

then just the sponsors on player, but they wouldn't change their team name?

No, it was JPS Lotus. That's what it was called. Okay. I don't know when

that started, but Marlboro, Marlboro on the worst name ever to McLaren. Like

Marlboro. Is it just Marlboro? There's no L. I can't say it, dude. Marlboro Marlboro.

Yeah. And then like the 711, 711 car was super dope, right? That was like the

most 711 car ever. I don't remember it. What's the 711 car? The F1 car from

like with was that Jordan?

I can't remember.

Yeah. Layton house, March, Warren, Layton house, March, F1 team. Yeah. I guess

if they're changing their name, I'm not talking about, I know sponsorship,

obviously, but if you're saying like they're changing the, I mean, the Layton

house, March F1 team, that was what it was called. And it was the art. Art, I'm a

dummy. You should have caught this 7, 7 up, not 711. Oh, Doug Jordan. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. The F192. Yeah. I don't know what they, what that team was called

officially, but yeah, it's called Jordan or maybe I don't know. Actually, I'm

looking right now. Maybe Jordan, seven up, seven up yours. All right. Yeah,

Layton house, the stove. Yeah. Benetton was like straight up.

Benetton. Yeah, just straight up the name. Yeah. I know no one even knew what

Benetton was. You're like, Oh, it's a clothing brand. Okay, cool.

A lot of this stuff, right? Like, I mean, there's like, like you look at Osama on

the Osama was a major sponsor in the early nineties. Like what the hell is Osama?

You look it up. It's, it's a logistics company. I think I did that trivia a couple

of years ago, which was just tell me what these sponsors are. Yeah. Oh, you did

do that. Yeah. We had no possible. Most of them were like that was like

recent. Yeah. It was like two years ago. Most were like oil companies or gas

companies or Bitcoin. It was a lot of bit crypto stuff. Yeah. Yeah. What is the

not Repsol, but the other one that it's the the sepsa like C E P S A like that's

something that doesn't exist here. That's a Spanish patrolling company that kind of

you know, had a presence enough one for a bit. I mean, yeah, there's a bunch of

this type of stuff like hype also that wasn't that very recent hype energy drink

and we don't really see that here. That must be an Australian thing. I think

they're doing it, man. Global man, you know, global. All right. That's podcast.

Thanks for joining us. We'll see you next time. Bye. Okay. Bye.
