The Smoking Tire

This episode is a 2 parter: In the first part Matt and Zack discuss the Lotus Evora they had, Zack's off-road coaching that almost led to death mountain, Robocop cars, movie cars, and answer a lot of questions. In part 2, they were at Buttonwillow Speedway and got to talk to Sam Smith and Travis Okulski of "Road & Track". These guys are fast, funny, and we have a great time. We're also joined by Efran Olivares, PR manager for some very fast cars. This show is available as a video! https://youtu.be/bedFTiC2Fg8 IG: @thatsamsmith, @tokulski. @thesmokingtire, @fakezackklapman Want your question answered?

Spike Feresten and Paul Zuckerman are fixtures of the car community, but their passion -or addiction- is to Porsches. They buy them, share them, and boy do they have some good ones.  On this episode they talk about owning 911 Rs, GT3s, 356s, driving Letterman's cars, why the R is not the same as the GT3 Touring, and tell some horror stories of their first cars.We also discuss the cars of Seinfeld (Spike was a writer on the show), what's good about sharing a car, and what happened to John Cena's Ford GT. Check out Spikes podcast: https://www.podcastone.com/spikes-car-radioThis show is available as a video! https://youtu.be/5cyW-lVeBcEIG:@thesmokingtire@spikeferesten@therealzuckerman@fakezackklapman Want your question answered?
