The Smoking Tire

We've driven a lot since our last sit down. We just reviewed the new Cadillac CT5-V BlackWing and another crazy Mini Cooper from Gildred Racing; Matt completed his road trip in the Audi S3; and Zack went drifting...sort of.  Plus we answer fan questions about blank-check builds, used vs new parts, SUV dailies, Lucid vs S-Class, and more.Follow us:@thesmokingtire@fakezackklapman Watch our car reviews at https://www.youtube.com/thesmokingtireFind Valvoline now at your local auto parts store. Go to https://www.blackvue.com/TST and use the promo code TIRE to get 10% off of any BlackVue dash cam.

Jesse Iwuji is one of those people that is as impressive as he is likable and he is very impressive indeed. While on leave from serving in the NAVY he went to a track day, fell in love with the driving, and decided to become a race car driver. He has done just that, working his way up through late model stocks cars to the Xfinity series. He dailies an R32 GT-R and a C7 Corvette, drifts a C6 Corvette, owns a few businesses, and just created a racing team alongside an NFL legend. A story like his is far from common in the world of auto racing. You won't regret listening. From his website:"Jesse went from competing at the top level of Division-1A college football to rising the ranks of the military as a Lieutenant Commander, and is now the only current driver in all of NASCAR at the national levels that actively serves his country as a US Military member. Today he is one of two African Americans competing at NASCARs national level of racing." @jesse_iwuji https://www.jesseiwuji.com/ Watch our new show, All Cars go to Heaven 3: The Crossoverhttps://youtu.be/AIncQODpC8s Find Valvoline at your local auto parts store.  Want your question answered?

This was a fun show that went all over the place! Jarod DeAnda is basically the voice of Formula Drift. He's been an announcer for the series for nearly 20 years, and has an enthusiasm for the sport that comes through in his voice and his demeanor. We wanted to hear how he got his start but we also heard about: his philosophy behind work; the wardrobe rules of Enterprise car rental; his crazy truck crash while moving from AZ to CA; the new wave of golf; his favorite country to visit; when he and Matt first met; his couch; ADD diagnoses; his second car; and a lot, lot, lot more.Grab a coffee and strap in for a fun one.Recorded Dec 15, 2021 Find Valvoline at your local auto parts store. Watch our new show, All Cars go to Heaven 3, here: https://youtu.be/AIncQODpC8s Want your question answered?
