J Ryan (along with his wife, Nicole) are the two minds who created the Good Vibes Breakfast Club, a car meet that happens at the top of Angeles Crest Highway every Friday morning. They started going up there during Covid to get away and others began to join them. It's grown to be one of the most respected car gatherings in Southern California. Closed for many years, Newcomb's Ranch (a restaurant and lodge), has been for sale for a long time. Over the years the price has dropped and J Ryan and Nicole - with the help of some well-heeled friends- is going to become it's new owner and care taker. And boy do they have exciting plans. Recorded June 12,2024 Go to joindeleteme.com/TIRE and use promo code TIRE for 20% off. Use Off The Record! and ALWAYS fight your tickets!

Zac Mertens (@Mister_Zachary) was the literal voice of HOONIGAN. Among loud cars he was even louder, as he was one of two people (alongside Corey Hosford) who would MC the HOONIGAN Burn Yard shows. He's also known for his love of doing big burnouts in loud square body trucks, rating the idle of people's cars, hurting his back jumping a car in the original HOONIGAN burn yard, and rolling a borrow CAN-AM. Zac's story is an inspiring one. Long before he was the cowboy-hat wearing face on YouTube, he joined HOONIGAN as an editor, eventually rising to become head of post-production. Then he became the Marketing Director of HOONIGAN Racing Division where he worked alongside Ken Block. Today we talk about going REALLY fast in a boat; amazing engine architecture; how to upset your HOA; crazy tricks in heavy machinery; that Miata jump; why concrete is cool; how loud is too loud; Burnout Wars; motorcycles; and more. https://www.youtube.com/@MISTERZACHARY Recorded May 29, 2024AutoTempest has all the cars.
