He worked for General Motors for 40 years – from 1963 to 2003 and ultimately became the Executive Director of GM Racing.Herb talks to host Stewart Howden about his amazing and long career at General Motors. He realized racing was a great proving ground for auto manufacturers, but GM didn’t want any involvement in racing so he would call his programs ‘Group’ like Performance Group or Special Performance Group to be able to test performance options. When he graduated college with an engineering degree he applied to work for Richard Petty, Jr. Johnson and Ned Jarrett, but at the time no racing teams employed engineers to improve performance. So he ended up at General Motors. He learned an enormous amount from legendary engine builder Smokey Yunich. He talks about working with Corvette designer and developer Zora Arkus-Dunthov. Other topics include why astronauts drove Corvettes, especially in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. The Apollo 12 astronauts all had corvettes, as did Alan Shepard. He also talks about racing at Mille Miglia after he retired. Herb worked on the development of the iconic 302 DZ cubic inch small block chevy that was putting out an amazing 8,000 RPMS int eh 1960s, which was unheard of at the time.

Jay Ward started working for Pixar in 1998 right as they were releasing their second film ‘Monsters Inc’ and became the ‘Carsultant’ on the first ‘Cars’ movie since he was such a car guy and had so much knowledge about the classic vehicles depicted in the movies. Creative Director of Franchise at Pixar Animation Studios Jay Ward talks about how he got started at Pixar in the 1990s as a production assistant and ended up working on the Cars movies. He tells why the eyes on the cars are in the windshield rather than appearing as the headlights in most animation. They based it on the 1952 cartoon Susie The Little Blue Coupe where the cars had the eyes in the windshield and how that allows for more animation and makes the car appear more human because they can do more animation on the front of the car and grill.Jay and Stewart also talk about how Pixar wanted to make cartoons for everyone, not just kids and how their philosophy on hiring voice over actors. Most production studios in the past would cast an actor and then draw the character to resemble the actor. Pixar decided to draw the cartoon characters and then find voice over talent to match the cartoon’s personality. Jay also goes into stories about researching Formula One Racing for the Cars movies and also building life size versions of the cars from the movies. Jay has also been a judge at the amazing Pebble Beach Concours Show as well as Audrain. He tells us how the judging works at those shows and what he like to see and the cost of building an award winning car to compete for the Ridler or America’s Most Beautiful Roadster.Jay tells Stewart about hiring famous actors and comedians to voice the characters.
