The Smoking Tire

Speedy Cop has built the weirdest and most creative race cars you've ever seen. There's the airplane, or the tipped-over hippy bus, an amphibious helicopter that can drive on a highway or on a pond, or maybe you remember seeing photos of an UPSIDE DOWN Camaro racing around a track. All of those were built by Speedy Cop. Today we find out why the world was gifted such weird and amazing racing machines, where he's driven them, what went right and VERY WRONG, and what's next. https://speedycop.com/page/2/@speedycophttps://www.youtube.com/user/speedycopvideos Recorded May 30, 2023 Go to blackvue.com/TST to learn more about the BlackVue DR970X series dash cams.

Want to understand cars better? This is the show. David Twohig is an automotive engineer, journalist, and author. He was an engineering lead for the Nissan Qashqai, Alpine A110, Renault Zoe,  and BYTON. On this episode he explains why cars are so hard to build; why focusing on weight isn't the priority of most OEMs; how expensive it is to change a button; the rising popularity of '90s Japanese cars in Europe; and so much more. His book, "Inside the Machine: An Engineer’s Tale of the Modern Automotive Industry" is a great insight into how difficult it is to build a car. The book gives some insight into why car companies do what they do and make the decisions they make. If you've ever asked "Why did they do that?" this book might give you some understanding.https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/59522165https://www.the-intercooler.com/library/writers/david-twohig/ https://www.cargroup.org/person/david-twohig/ Recorded May 26, 2023 Head to factormeals.com/tire50 and use code tire50 to get 50% off your first box Get 20% OFF with our code TIRE at calderalab.com/TIRE to unlock your youthful glow and be ready for summer with Caldera + Lab! #teamcaldera #ad Go to birddogs.com/tire and enter promo code TIRE for a free Yeti style tumbler with your order. Want your question answered?

Mike Spagnola is the president of SEMA. Naturally we'll be talking about the EPA, the rise of EVs, and what the future of modded cars looks like. He's also built some seriously fast toys of his own, raced in open wheel, the Mint 400, and tracks an Ariel Atom. He's one of us. This conversation was fascinating. We talk about modified car trends; over-fenders; the overlanding explosion; what the EPA is trying to do to the car hobby; how SEMA's two Garages help small businesses build and test new parts (and get them approved by CARB); how SEMA is evolving; arrival of the EV swap; and why this year's SEMA is bigger than ever.Recorded May 25, 2023https://www.semashow.com/https://www.semagarage.com/ Go to blackvue.com/TST to learn more about the BlackVue DR970X series dash cams.

What a show! Our guest is automotive designer Sasha Selipanov. He has the job many of us dreamed of us as kids: supercar designer. He penned the Lamborghini Huracan, Bugatti Chiron, Koenigsegg's Gemera and CC850, and the Genesis concept. Strong resume. We learn about how Sasha got started; the unexpected company that helped with his Ferrari project at school; lessons from his first job at VW; making the leap to Lamborghini, Bugatti, and Koenigsegg; the constraints of working for a big OEM; what it's like to work with Christian von Koenigsegg; his wild first experience driving a fast car; and why he hates cladding.https://www.instagram.com/sashaselipanov/?hl=enRecorded May 19, 2023 Invite the whole crew over and watch NASCAR honor those who have fought and continue to fight for our freedoms by tuning in to the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, May 28th at 6:00 PM Eastern on FOX. Use Off The Record! and ALWAYS fight your tickets!
