It's a TST crew show. Matt and Zack debate the merits of the new (and old) Supra, talk about where it fits in the market, and why it isn't an LC500. We also discuss off-roading, lake beds, drifting, Zack driving a rare Porsche RSR replica, and answer a TON of questions.  This show is a video: https://youtu.be/Md0c-4R8WbcFollow us!T: @thesmokingtire @zackklapman IG: @thesmokingtire @fakezackklapman NEW SHIRTS!https://www.blipshift.com/tst Want your question answered?

Alan Macey thinks about cars differently than we do. After graduating from Art Center of Pasadena (arguably the best school for automotive design in the world), he interned at VW, and then worked as a designer at Jeep. He sees cars differently than us. We see a panel gap, and he knows why it's that size. He understands the constraints designers have when they design a new car. He also created the Manual Gearbox Preservation Society ( links below).   We talk about design, Bugatti, VW, challenges of selling a new car, and then we get into a DEEP conversation about AI, the future of car ownership, and argue about how soon it will all arrive.   It's a good listen. New Shirts: https://www.blipshift/com/tstFollow us!T: @thesmokingtire @zackklapman @amacey3000IG: @thesmokingtire @fakezackklapman https://www.facebook.com/TheManualGearboxPreservationSociey/https://thecurbshop.com/collections/all-products WATCH this show: https://youtu.be/S9ocH3gZ3Yw Want your question answered?

Brett Berk's fascinating story has landed him pretty  high up the automotive journalist food chain. He only has to drive the finest cars, he (admits) he isn't that fast on a track, and when it all began, he was a school teacher. He is a great example of someone who arrived at a job by taking a different path than most of us, and can now say he's written for some of the biggest publications on Earth. This was a great, illuminating, hilarious show.  Find all of Brett's work here: http://brettberk.com/Watch the show on YouTube: https://youtu.be/n6S_pHjC2Tk Follow us!T: @thesmokingtire @zackklapman IG: @thesmokingtire @fakezackklapman @therealbrettberkNew Shirts: https://www.blipshift/com/tst   Want your question answered?
