Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio Tom said it best, dumpster fire.

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio One of the best parts of doing this show is talking to people who have slid into this industry from less than obvious avenues. Chris Delgado is one of those guys. Chris Delgado of Prospeed Autosports started tuning cars in 2000 and took a interesting route to get there. Chris, a fan of hot pockets, sought out work in ar…

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio We think once or twice we brought up the cathedral port vs square port head thing. There has always been a "debate" about what heads are better for what and why. Tonight we have an expert that tested exactly this. Ben Strader of EFI University has built two engines with each of the head styles. The first engine, the cat…

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio. This days always happen. We look around the room and say "whatdoyaogot"... nothing. Sometimes these shows are good from the standpoint of just the guys being the guys.

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio. Lake speed has been around racing as long as any of us can remember. Working with Gibbs Racing for many years has lead to the formation of Driven Racing Oils.

Mike and Jeff in studio. To borrow from todays racing lingo, this is what we would call a "No Prep" show. (not that most of them are full of prep to begin with) The show was cancelled because Tom got called away, but Jeff showed up so we turned on the mics. I have always said they can't all be winners, but sometimes it's nice to just shoot the bree…

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio. Alrightythen. Things are getting back to normal and we should have a show you late model GM guys can get into. Like it or not, change is coming. Mike didn't like change when the LS popped on the scene or when the Corvette moved to square taillights. Most of us hate change, but since we can't stop it, we have to live wi…

Mike, Tom, Tad, and Jeff in studio. Tom is back! Thank god, it's not easy to do this without people you work with all the time. Tom traveled to Japan and the Middle East for shows he had to attend.
