    Beautiful Losers: From Colossal Failures to Dubious Successes

    Beautiful Losers: From Colossal Failures to Dubious Successes

    Right so I made another episode, big deal, want to fight about it? Its been almost a year, so clearly I'm right on schedule. Dan Carlin releases a 6 hour epic on the Vikings, I give you guys 22 minutes on four racecars nobody cares about, thats just how it works. Anyway this is an episode about four cars I couldn't stretch into full episodes, so I linked em all together and made one show out of them. I enjoyed it, kinda, so hopefully you do too

    Not Just a Pretty Face: 1991 Jordan 191

    Not Just a Pretty Face: 1991 Jordan 191

    There are many people, of which I am one, who believe the Jordan 191 is the best looking F1 car of all time. But it was also a successful racecar for a team that desperately needed to come out swinging in their rookie season if they had any hope of being more than a one-season competitor. Oh, and Michael Schumacher makes an appearance as well. This is the Jordan 191.

    The story of the design, development, and competition history of the Chevrolet Corvette C5-R. GM's first true factory backing of the Corvette as a race car, the C5-R would take on the world and win basically wherever it went. Raise hell, praise Dale.

Z28man ,

Great info for race car fans!

I’ve heard all three of The Racecar Podcast’s and they keep getting better!! Just great behind the scenes information on these historical cars, who would think a Volvo wagon would be aerodynamic!! Can’t wait for the next installment and I recommend this podcast to enthusiasts and novice car people alike. Very informative but even more entertaining!!
