Dai Yoshihara's Crazy Origin Story
Dai Yoshihara is a professional driver who has competed in Formula D, Time Attack, Road Racing, and Hill Climb. And it all started with a motorcycle. Sort of. On this episode we find out how Dai got his start in driving, drifting, and the unlikely meeting that led to his first drift event and ultimately, his career. Dai walks us through his car history; the differences between road racing and drifting; why he loves the Pikes Peak Hill Climb; his AE86 builds; and the one race car he would own if he could. Some of his most notable moments: he won the Formula D championship in 2011, 3rd place in the 25 Hours of Thunderhill, 1st overall in the 2019 Global Time Attack Super Lap Battle, and took 1st place in the Unlimited class (and 9th overall) at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb of 2020. He's also been a drift judge, a precision driver, co-hosted a show on Hagerty along with our own Zack Klapman, and has been the face of many brands.

Randy Lanier: How a Weed Smuggler Raced in the INDY500
Randy Thomas Lanier is a man with some seriously incredible stories. He is a professional race car driver and convicted drug trafficker from the United States. Yes, you read that correctly. Two endeavors that grew together to heights few have experienced. He is best known for his racing efforts in the mid-1980s, including winning the 1984 IMSA Camel GT title for the wholly independent Blue Thunder Racing team, placing 9th in the 1986 INDY 500, and becoming the Rookie of the Year at that same race. In 1988, Randy was arrested for marijuana smuggling and sentenced to life in prison without parole under the Continuing Criminal Enterprise statute (also known as the "Super Drug Kingpin" law). We talk to Randy about his late start in racing; how he ascended through the ranks so quickly; beating Porsche; a factory ride offer; how it came crashing down; and how he found purpose and happiness.

Emelia Hartford: Corvette records; Ferrari NOS; and giving back

She set a drag record in her turbocharged C8 Corvette, blew up a Mustang engine that's taller than a house, widened a Ferrari, started a charity foundation, and somehow finds time to move her acting career forward.

Gordon Murray
How did Gordon Murray get his tenacious hunger of design and problem solving? How did he come to design the legendary McLaren F1? What does his new car, the T.50, do that other supercars don't? And what are those strange contraptions he built out of a boiler and a food truck? All that and a lot more will be answered in this amazing episode. If there were a hall of fame for cars, Gordon Murray would be near the top, seated at the table of bosses next to people like Colin Chapman and Dan Gurney. He was the lead designer and engineer behind the McLaren F1, which came after he had a very successful career as a technical director in F1 for Brabham and McLaren. For some, those credits would be enough to hang their legacy on but as you'll soon hear Gordon is not like other people. His new venture, GMA (Gordon Murray Automotive), has debuted two cars that lit the supercar world on fire because their intent is not to deliver the quickest, fastest, or most powerful ride on Earth, but the best to drive. Gordon's focus has always been about weight reduction and driver feedback, and as will become clear in this show, his focus is sharper than ever. https://gordonmurrayautomotive.com/ \Recorded August 4, 2022 Berryman is Available at your favorite automotive retailer or automotive parts store. berrymanproducts.com.

Becoming a Car Designer: From Italy to OEMs to Crazy One-off Projects
This show was full of interesting insights into the life and business of a designer. Oil Stain Lab @oilstainlab is a vehicle design company founded by brothers Iliya and Nikita Bridan. They work with brands and individuals alike who want to build something truly unique. Sometimes it's a lifted Alfa Romeo, others it's a custom Porsche inspired by Can-Am madness. Whatever they put their minds, pens, and hands on, the vehicles tend to get attention. We talk to Nikita about how they got started, studying in Italy, Art Center in Pasadena, the good and bad working for OEMs, the rational explanation for why concept cars look insane, opening their own business, building an unexpectedly popular fake-vintage Can-Am car, working on the HOONIGAN Porsche, and a ton more.
