Great Podcast

Great for Motorsport/automotive knowledge and learning the backgrounds from the guests. Courses are also excellent to go more in depth on the topics!

Just Constant Incredible Content

Amazing long form pods but surprisingly fantastic short clips episodes as well. The new trend of constant small pods hasn’t been enjoyable on a single podcast besides this one!

I can’t remember a time I’ve been so happy and entertained while truly LEARNNING!

Great guests and a fantastic host!

Smart people talking about smart stuff in a way that isn’t just understandable or related able, but they somehow also teach you so much so well, that even beginners can’t help but be inspired to learn more.

Favorite part of my weekly routine!

Thanks!

Nothing else like it!

Really love this Podcast. I don’t know of anything else like it. As someone who casually goes to track days, this podcast really answers a lot of the questions I’ve had and gives me deeper insight into all the aspects of car performance. There are other podcasts that talk about cars in general and which cars are better than other cars, but not about what you do with those cars to get better performance. Thanks for all the content!
