    Episode 30: Doritos are Good - w/ Chris Ott @ Rotary Performance

    2020 starts of with a bang (rotary joke)! Lance sits down with Chris Ott, owner of Rotary Performance (RP) in Garland, TX. RP has worked on Lance’s FD for almost 10 years, and together they discuss RP’s story, which rotary perceptions are (and aren’t) true, which RXs are bulletproof, and how recent market trends have changed RX7 owner behaviors. ———————————————- www.rotaryperformance.com Find Launch Control everywhere as @launchcontrolcars  Want to hear anything in particular?

    S1E29: The Wheelman: Eric Foss

    Everyone wants to be a race car driver. This episode we get a peek into what the business of pro driving is like. Eric Foss, a two time winner of the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, tells us how he became a pro driver (without the silver spoon), his journey in racing, what it’s like coaching other race car drivers, and how private coaching makes you drive differently than group events. ———————————————- Find Eric Foss on Facebook at Eric Foss Racing, and Launch Control everywhere as @launchcontrolcars Want to hear anything in particular?  Email us at launchcontrolcars@gmail.com or DM us!

    S1E28: Tune in: Tuning with Bailey's Hyperformance

    We get to sit down with the fine folks at Baily’s Hyperformance again! This time, we dive into tuning: Off roading: Rezvani (in the shop)and the War wagon (uh, not in the shop). Tuning - what is it really, and why you need it for those parts you bought? What are volumetric, thermal, and mechanical efficiency, and what parts are involved? How do you approach tuning in a way that is financially efficient? How does neural networking/AI affect tuning? Where can tuning go wrong, how do you handle ‘chat room tuners’, and how can you responsibly shop for a tuner yourself?

    S1E26: Ensured That You’re Insured (with Susan Tableman)

    You may remember Susan from the service advisor episode, but she currently owns The Tableman Insurance Group, an insurance brokerage firm. So she’s back to talk car insurance for enthusiasts - agent vs. broker, the most important components of a policy, which companies are best-tuned for car people, among other insurance related things. Fair warning - since all three of us are car people, it takes us about 30 minutes to actually get to the insurance talk. So if you just want the insurance info, forward 30 mins. But if you’re interested in drag/boat/circle track racing, Ford Edges, Camaros, selling Benzes, and dealership experiences, just hit play and enjoy!

    S1E24 - Live at Baily's Hyperformance

    In this episode Chris and Marlene Baily (along with their team) give us a primer on their shop history, how tuning a Dodge is different from tuning a GM car, why sticking parts on a car isn’t enough, and what the future might look like. After the episode, Lance got to drive a couple of their cars, and if those are any indication, modern musclecars have their place in this world for a reason.  Find Launch Control everywhere as @launchcontrolcars Want to hear anything in particular?

    S1E23: Reality Crisis

    In this episode, we got some hot takes! We take some stereotypes and common conceptions and pick them apart. 1. Why the G35 is a Japanese BMW 2. Why Nissans are Japanese, but not really (with a couple of exceptions) 3. Why Tesla should be scared of the Taycan (or maybe not) 4. Chiron breaks the 300+ mph, but does the record count, and is that the best thing about it? Find Launch Control everywhere as @launchcontrolcars  Want to hear anything in particular?
