In this week's episode, I cover the Jaguar E-type, also known as the XK-E in North America. This impressive sports car was first produced in 1961. Not only did the car have impressive performance, utilizing technology developed in 24 hours of Le Man racing, this car also looked amazing, being called "the most beautiful car in the world" by Enzo Ferrari. The car would go through 3 series with the last version being given a V12 engine.
Thanks for Listening!

In this week's episode, I talk about the Nissan Pao, a very unique car created in 1989. The Pao is a tiny, retro-designed car that is very underpowered, but still has appeal in the fact that there is nothing else out there like it. The Pao was created as a pike car, a series of cars that Nissan created to master small-scale production and retro design. The Pao was only sold in Japan.

In this weeks episode I cover the Toyota Supra, the JDM legend that started as a fairly low key car based off of the Toyota Celica. Originally designed to compete with the Datsun Z cars, the Supra would come into its own by its fourth generation where it would cement itself as a monster street racer with the ability to handle big power from the factory. The newest Supra was released just last year, however this Supra uses a BMW engine and some see this newest generation as not a true Toyota Supra!

Hudson Hornet, the Fabulous Stock car
Épisode 38
dimanche 17 janvier 2021 • Durée 21:54
Hudson Hornet
In this episode I cover the Hudson Hornet, a car that dominated early stock car racing thanks to its flathead straight six engine, step-down chassis design, and its low slung, aerodynamic body. The Hudson Hornet would take multiple championships but eventually fall behind in sales due to it never being given a V8 and having an older look that could not be easily updated.
Thanks for Listening!

McLaren F1, "The Greatest Automotive Achievement of all Time"
Épisode 37
dimanche 10 janvier 2021 • Durée 23:45
McLaren F1
In this episode, I cover the McLaren F1, the greatest road-legal sports car of all time. Powered by an NA V12 built by BMW, inspired by the Honda NSX, this car would not only dominate the public road but also the race track going on to win the 24 Hours of LeMan. Built with no compromises the F1 used the cutting edge of materials and technology including a gold lined engine bay and ground effect fans.
Peugeot 205 T16, The Most Successful Group B Rally Car!
Épisode 36
dimanche 3 janvier 2021 • Durée 24:23
Peugeot 205 T16
In this episode, I cover the Peugeot 205 T16, an impressive group B rally car that would go on to become the most successful Group B rally car of the era. This car utilized AWD, a mid-mounted turbocharged engine, and a lightweight design. After group B ended, this car would move to the Dakar Rally and Pikes Peak Hill climb where it would continue to grow both its power and success.

Honda NSX, The Truly Usable Sports Car
Épisode 35
dimanche 27 décembre 2020 • Durée 25:35
Honda NSX
In this episode, I cover the Honda NSX. This Japanese sports car was developed in the late 1980s and was released in 1990. This car would quickly gain a following thanks to its impressive handling, incredible visibility (the car used an F-16 fighter jet as inspiration), its relative cheapness, and its reliability. Despite the NSX never having all that much power, the joy of the NSX comes from its ability to be driven much more than most other cars of this caliber.
Porsche 959, The Problem Child that Porsche Always Loved
Épisode 34
dimanche 20 décembre 2020 • Durée 27:43
Porsche 959
In this episode, I cover the Porsche 959, a problematic car based on the 911 that was designed to compete in group B rallying. While never being able to compete in Group B due to development delays, the 959 still found success in the Dakar Rally and the 24 hours of Le Mans. The 959 also found a place in Porsches heart despite having an extremely slow and painful development process that involved lots of fires, boiling brake fluid, and 1980s computer issues.

In this episode I cover the Audi RS4. a high-performance variant of a family car, produced off and on since 1999. This car looks like all it can do is get groceries, but good luck beating it in any red light drag races!
In this episode, I cover the Lotus Esprit, A supercar built by Lotus in the 1970s that was designed to change the image of Lotus, from a kit car manufacturer to a supercar builder. Although the Esprit started out fairly underpowered, through the generations this car would start to make big power, eventually using a twin-turbo V8 engine capable of 500 hp. This car was the catalyst for Louts' transformation.
