On this podcast Scott and Rich are joined by FD PROSPEC driver Cole Richards. PROSPEC drivers are approaching their first event of the 2024 season so we wanted to get last years’ Rookie of the Year Cole Richards on the podcast. Cole talks about the nearing start of the season along with his preparation in the off season to get ready to podium some more. With the rise of sim racing we ask Cole how he uses sim racing as a practice and learning tool and how does it translate to the real thing. His answers may surprise you.

On this podcast Rich and Daut talk about their dream 3 car garage within a $100,000 budget. Yes we know this may sounds like a bit of a stretch but lets say you have a daily driver and a weekend car, take the total value of those two cars and subtract that from $100,000 and that’s what you have left to spend on one more car. There are people out there that may be contemplating this very scenario and Rich and Daut get to dream a little bit like every enthusiast does. Let us know what 3 cars you would pick!

On this podcast Scott and John are joined by Jonathan Wooley of S3 Magazine. Jonathan has been the head editor of S3 since 2006. Konig has been working with Jonathan and S3 for numerous years. Jonathan talks about how S3 has moved away from print as it is becoming a dying industry and less desirable and how S3 has moved to an app in recent years. He mentions some pros and cons of moving away from the more traditional magazine issue model. Do you feel that print still has its place in automotive in 2024?

He is a former Pro 1 driver, PROSPEC/Pro 2 Champion and has 1st place finishes under his belt. This week Travis broke the news that he will not competing in Formula Drift for the 2024 season. As every drivers worst fear, this is the reality of motorsports on a professional level.In this podcast the guys talk about some foreseen struggles that come with running a professional program and some reflection on what went well and what needs work. Travis has a champion mindset where he wants to be the best and compete with the best. He talks about how today the sport is changing and some sponsors don’t care so much about winning as they do about analytics, media and return on investment. We thank Travis for being apart of the Konig team for so long and even though he is not running for the 2024 season he still has our support and we look forward to him rejoining FD in 2025.
