Thursday August 11, 2022 - Guest: Patrick Long
Retired Porsche factory driver and co-founder of Luftgekuhlt, Patrick Long is here to talk Luftgekuhlt 8, Garage & Social and lots & lots of things he's not supposed to say... TONIGHT, it's a Porsche sexy-time show.
How's the last year been? Relaxing. Kinda. Lots of vacation and family time then straight back to his new role as consultant to Porsche Motorsports and Porsche Cars, NA and diving deep into Luft details. The guys discuss LA's car scene and the barrage of events going on... everything, everywhere, all the time. Patrick goes into his history and the chat weaves from racing to the outer car world. His stories have stories we try to discuss his personal Porsche collection but go so deep on the Aubergine 72, there's only time for audience questions. Is there a car with sweet spot for the track to the freeway? What about Garage & Social with Rod Emory? Let's talk about that waaaaay more than we should. 😉 He also compares how media and unveilings have changed, training with SIM racing, and the evolution of VR. PLUS: the time he met Paul Newman and how that experience compares with knowing friend Patrick Dempsey. This one was a long time coming. Patrick is a kind, generous and very cool cucumber. Hope you enjoy.
As always, we appreciate anyone and everyone who shares, likes, subscribes and leaves a positive comment about the show. THANK YOU for watching 🎙❤️✨
