Ten Tenths Podcast

Carnage and destruction! Michael and Robbie share their recent race-day experiences and we realize autocross can be more disastrous than we originally considered.

Many of you may recognize him as co-host of FD proceedings along side Jarod DeAnda, but Ryan is actively engaged in the growth and development of the Formula Drit program. Ryan joins us this week to discuss the development of FD over the past 15 years and where he sees the future potential of the sport.

The guys have returned from their 3rd year at Gridlife Midwest. This year's festival was a unique experience, including the debut of Time Attack Bracket Battles, killer drifting, and some unfortunate weather.

Robert takes the reins of the show solo this week in order to interview Freddie Hunt. If Freddie's last name sounds familliar, that is because he is the son of the infamous James Hunt, winner of the 1976 Formula One World Championship. Freddie discusses his unusual transition into automotive racing and his campaign towards Le Mans. 

This week Michael shares an interesting observation about most Formula D cars and we discuss how owners ruin certain models of cars.

Your favorite culinary podcast* is back this week with unbaised reviews on TWO different types of water. Additionally, we get punked by some nerds that run a podcast named after a slang term used by 80s surf bums. *If you are new to our show, this actually is a car podcast. Push through the nonsense about water and we talk about cars, I promise.

Everyone's favorite Motorsport Director joins us for another episode to discuss crazy cars from New Zealand, superbike engine swaps, and why 1.8L is way more displacement than anyone really needs.

With the increased activity on our Youtube channel, our project car updates have been few and far between on the podcast. This week we correct that by giving an update on what we've been working on over the last couple of months.

With the new YouTube format in full swing, we take a stab at another Craigslist challege: $7500 tow pigs! Additionally, after bickering at length with one another, we discover that it's not just automotive journalists that talk complete nonsense at times, car company execs are guilty of it too
