Sports Cars, Salt Flats and Studebaker? (Andrew Beckman)

Saison 7 · Épisode 678

mardi 3 novembre 2026 • Durée 49:31

Andrew Beckman of the Studebaker National Museum recounts how Studebaker’s New Carlisle, Indiana Proving Ground—opened in 1926 with a three-mile high-speed oval—unexpectedly hosted major Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) gatherings from 1950–1953, enabled largely through sports-car-enthusiast designers tied to Raymond Loewy Associates. Using archives and period coverage, he highlights the cars, personalities, results, and humorous race “shenanigans,” including appearances by Jim Kimberly’s early Ferrari, Jaguars, specials, and Studebaker-linked hybrids, plus growing attendance before the events ended amid Studebaker’s financial struggles. The talk then shifts to Sherwood Egbert’s 1961 push for a new sports car, leading to the Loewy-designed Avanti and Andy Granatelli’s Paxton-engineered performance program. Studebaker’s Bonneville efforts set 29 USAC records in 1962 and 72 more in 1963, spawned Super Lark/Hawk packages, narrowly missed 200 mph with the Avanti “Due Cento,” and ultimately ended as South Bend production shut down, though a Studebaker Avanti finally exceeded 200 mph in 1993.

Formula Fanatics #11 - Pit Stops & Pole Positions from Baku to Bahrain

Saison 7 · Épisode 677

jeudi 29 octobre 2026 • Durée 55:38

This episode of Formula Fanatics recaps three 2026 races with heavy commentary on boring street circuits, safety car rules, and car software dependence. In Azerbaijan (Baku), Audi starts at the back after upgrades, Kimi recovers from 16th, Stroll retires on lap 9, multiple yellows slow the race, and it finishes under caution with George Russell winning from pole by a tenth over Verstappen, followed by Hadjar; Leclerc is fourth and Kimi fifth, while Bottas’ crash sparks discussion of software-controlled drivetrains. The Bahrain GP in Malaysia is rain-delayed and red-flagged on the formation lap due to a wet-mode software limp issue; strategy chaos follows, including Hamilton starting on slicks, Perez pitting six times, and a finish of Verstappen, Kimi, and Hamilton. Singapore features rain delays, the final sprint of the season, Russell crashing in the sprint and starting last for the race, Stroll retiring again, and Verstappen winning ahead of Leclerc and Kimi, with discussion of Mercedes/Russell-Kimi fan drama and Kimi’s likely title run-in.

mardi 27 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:56

Dear loyal Drive Thru News listener, if you were expecting another sarcastically filled news episode this month, you're in luck! *It's delayed* Because of our 24 Hours of LeMons racing attempt at Summit Point Raceway. We wanted to make sure that we cover all the racing action and some of the wrap-up topics for the tail end of the Drive Thru year. So stay tuned... Come back to this date as we replace this episode once we get it all recorded, edited, and in the can - as they say. But look forward to the next episode of Formula Fanatics on Thursday, and we'll see you next month for even more Drive Thru antics!

Louie Mattar's Fabulous Car! (Heidi Lewis)

Saison 7 · Épisode 675

jeudi 22 octobre 2026 • Durée 52:31

Automotive History Live spotlights the true story of San Diego inventor Louis Mattar, who in 1952 drove a heavily customized 1947 Cadillac nonstop—wheels never stopping—from San Diego to New York City and back in six days, using on-the-move refueling and repairs, and amenities like a shower, kitchen, bar, communications gear, and a combined toilet/washing machine. Guest Heidi Lewis, author of the new picture book Louis Mattar’s Fabulous Car, explains how she discovered the car at the San Diego Automotive Museum, researched primary documents with Mattar’s family, and details Mattar’s self-taught ingenuity, including changing tires and brake pads while moving and coordinating police escorts before the interstate era. The episode also covers a second 1954 nonstop run from Anchorage to Mexico City, the car’s ongoing display in San Diego, and where to buy the $18.99 book.

Route 66: Myth and Reality

Saison 7 · Épisode 674

mardi 20 octobre 2026 • Durée 20:22

The Motoring Historian, Jon Summers, travels through rural Oklahoma west of Oklahoma City while reflecting on the centenary of Route 66, designated in 1926 from Chicago and St. Louis to Santa Monica/Los Angeles. Driving on I-40 with old Route 66 running nearby, he describes surviving original stretches, the road’s many museums and roadside ephemera, and why so many buildings and towns along it declined after freeways bypassed them and as vehicles became more reliable, reducing the need for frequent service stops. He connects Route 66 mythology to pop culture like Pixar’s Cars, murals of 1960s–70s muscle cars, and a TV-era romance of cross-country travel tied to Hollywood dreams. He also notes evolving freeway infrastructure, a Tulsa routing mistake, and mixed feelings about Route 66 icons like Cadillac Ranch and its imitators.

Mother Roads: Lincoln Highway, Route 66 & the Interstate Highway System

Saison 7 · Épisode 673

jeudi 15 octobre 2026 • Durée 44:30

This Automotive History Live! panel explores how American roads evolved from mostly dirt paths in the early 1900s into the Lincoln Highway, Route 66, and the Interstate Highway System. Moderator Bob Casey sets context on poor early road conditions and rising demand from motorists. Jeff Blair of the Indiana Lincoln Highway Association highlights Carl Fisher’s role, the highway’s 1913 coast-to-coast route, Indiana’s two alignments, notable landmarks and preserved sections (including the Ideal Section in Dyer), and today’s focus on signage, education, and tourism. John Weiss of the Illinois Route 66 Preservation Committee explains Route 66’s creation from connected paved segments, its 1926 designation, 1985 decommissioning, cultural fame, and preservation of places and stories, including the Whoopee Auto Coaster in Lyons, Illinois. Finally, Matt Anderson details Eisenhower’s Interstate System origins, numbering, completion in 1992, and current funding challenges tied to fuel taxes, tolls, and mileage-based options.

A Slow Drive Across a Fast Country (Tom Cotter)

Saison 7 · Épisode 672

mardi 13 octobre 2026 • Durée 47:34

Automotive History Live welcomes Barn Find Hunter and author Tom Cotter, who recounts driving a restored 1926 Ford Model T from Times Square to San Francisco largely along the Lincoln Highway, inspired by concerns that modern cars remove the act of driving. With co-driver Dave Coleman and photographer Michael Allen Ross, Cotter describes day-one challenges like no gas gauge, cold weather, and staying in period roadside lodgings, plus human-interest stops including the Flight 93 Memorial, quirky diners, historic Lincoln Highway sites, and encounters with local enthusiasts. The trip highlights evolving road routes, a brief, tense stretch on Wyoming’s I-80 among fast trucks, a visit to Bonneville’s wet salt flats where they helped tow out a stuck car, and Nevada’s “loneliest road.” They reached the western terminus, baptized the tires in the Pacific, and shipped the car home with sponsor help.

The Ferrari Market isn't just Hot... it's in a Heat Wave!

Saison 7 · Épisode 671

vendredi 9 octobre 2026 • Durée 59:02

In this Ferrari Friday episode of The Ferrari Marketplace podcast/vlog, William Ross interviews Chris Miele about the past year’s surging Ferrari collector market following major auctions from Kissimmee’s Mecum Bachman Collection through Monterey, citing record-setting results and continued momentum into Pebble Beach 2026. They discuss how unique color/spec, provenance, single ownership, documentation, and rarity (including manual gearboxes, numbered cars, and tailor-made/atelier builds) are now often valued even more than ultra-low mileage, driving major gains in models like the 360 Challenge Stradale, manual 360 Modena, 575/550 variants, and modern specials such as TDFs and 812 Competizione. Miele attributes demand to new wealth, lifestyle events, and increased market transparency, advises buyers to insist on thorough pre-purchase inspections amid online-sale risks, and shares his favorite Ferrari picks by decade, highlighting limited-production cars and the 550 Maranello as a daily driver.

The Renaissance of Watkins Glen (J.J. O'Malley)

Saison 7 · Épisode 661

mardi 6 octobre 2026 • Durée 48:35

Guest speaker and longtime journalist J.J. O’Malley recounts how Watkins Glen fell into “dark years” after financial and safety troubles culminated in the Grand Prix Association’s 1981 bankruptcy, the loss of Formula 1, event cancellations, foreclosure action by the Bank of New York, and a 1982 auction. He describes how SCCA Glen Region leaders formed the Green Flag Committee to find a new owner, and how Corning Glass executive Jim Reisbeck—after seeing Daytona’s economic impact—commissioned studies and began talks that led Corning Glass to form Corning Enterprises to revive the track. Partnering with International Speedway Corporation (20% ownership), they created Watkins Glen International, closed public roads through the circuit, removed the Scheckter Chicane, upgraded facilities, emphasized family-friendly safety and strong law enforcement, and relaunched major racing with IMSA/Camel GT, Trans-Am, and eventually NASCAR’s Budweiser at the Glen in 1986, followed by successful vintage reunions.

Formula Fanatics #10 - Zandvoort, Monza and the Madring

Saison 7 · Épisode 669

jeudi 1 octobre 2026 • Durée 29:29

In this episode of Formula Fanatics, we banter about Lance Stroll’s DNFs and near-record Q1 eliminations, and discuss Charles Leclerc reaffirming his Ferrari commitment, credited to Fred Vasseur. We debate whether Lewis Hamilton can win the title or Max Verstappen is more likely to win his next championship than Hamilton, while criticizing team pit strategy and praising George Russell’s tire longevity. Race recaps cover a DNF-heavy, boring Dutch GP and an exciting Monza where Kimi Antonelli charges from the back and extends his points lead, while Verstappen features prominently. We pan to the Madrid street-style circuit as a near-parade where Antonelli wins and Hamilton retires early, note the 2027 schedule adds Portugal and replaces Catalunya with Madrid, mention Verstappen’s dominant kart race publicity stunt, Hamilton’s car-collection sale and F40, a Gilles Villeneuve documentary, Jamie Chadwick’s F1 test, and make Azerbaijan podium predictions.
