How do you make older cars turn, stop, handle, or have good steering feel? Luckily we have Kyle Tucker of Detroit Speed to explain it all. He talks about his time working for GM, testing the C5 prototype fresh out of college, how he started his own company, what they did differently, and why their cars perform with the best. It was a great discussion about modifying, thinking, engineering, and testing. Detroit speed makes subframes, sway bars, control arms, axles, springs, and more. It's hard to put into words how good their cars are, so you'll just have to watch one of Matt's One Takes to get his word. Recorded on Nov. 3, 2021 https://www.detroitspeed.com/ https://youtu.be/Pa-1_o44e68Head to Policygenius.com/SMOKINGTIRE to get started right now. For a limited time, my listeners get their first month free - AND, after you’ve been a member, CrowdHealth will include a Fitness Wearable.

And we answer questions about American V8 sedan shopping, how to entertain 7 people at once, pick someone's commuter car, and help someone find their perfect Porsche. Head to http://www.Policygenius.com/smokingtire to get started. Visit http://www.talkspace.com and get $100 off your first month when you use promo code TIRE at sign-up. Start your free trial today at http://www.Egnyte.com Want early access to this episode?
