Producer's note: Due to some technical kerfuffles, this week's episode sounds less than ideal. We'll be back to top form in no time!
Alex, Randy, Howard, and Zac–the whole crew is back together again! They discuss Randy's first time out in the world of vintage racing versus Howard's lifelong experience; the stellar track food, green ravines, and worryingly fast straights at Road America; pit bikes; catching up with B.S. Levy; the various on-track attitudes (and interpretations of vintage spec) from event to event; the experience of driving in the race car parade from the track to downtown Elkhart Lake; Spotted Cow; the next tracks on the list; exhausted radiators; some notable names they'll be sharing Laguna Seca with this weekend; and great memories from Malibu Grand Prix.
The group close out with several recent collections from the site, hard-to-find hardtops, and other watchlist highlights from this very exciting and high-volume time at BaT.

Alex and BaT strategy director Zac discuss the luxuries of bicoastal living; spring in New York City; the eye-opening rust situation for a first-time visitor to the Midwest; a novel way to avoid road tolls; which one is the "villain" of the podcast; and unspoken Wisconsin speed limits. Then, on to the main event: the absoutely stellar time we all had at Road America for our Alumni Gathering at the vintage races in July. Zac finds a way to briefly resurface his favorite car, the Toyota Solara, before they talk about the transformative experience (and innate patriotism) of the traditional Friday night race car parade into Elkhart Lake. The pair wrap up with some of the most interesting cars recently listed on BaT.

In this latest installment of our popular One-Year Garage game, Alex, Beck, and podcast newcomer Cameron reveal their favorite cars, trucks, and wild cards of 1997, but not before explaining to young Cam the horrors of the Star Wars prequels he grew up with. Also: Schumacher and Villeneuve; the WALKinshaw Porsche WSC-95 at Le Mans; all three are old enough to be irritated by the vagaries of Google AI; wishful thinking about the availability of a manual transmission in the US-model Volvo 850R; a burnout instead of friendly wave; and a wilder wild card than usual.

Producer's note: Our man Alex is still recovering from our recent gathering in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, and will be back to regularly scheduled programming next week. In the meantime, we've bookended the vintage races at Road America with local legends Peter Cunningham and, today, a revisitation of our entertaining 2024 interview with Shelby impresario and all-around rascal Colin Comer.
Randy and Alex sit down with Shelby expert, restorer, journalist, author, and frequent BaT seller Colin Comer. They talk about his first MGB GT leading into the world of "bargain" Ferraris and his ultimate pathway to Shelby collection and expertise; a (literal) run-in with the law as a teenager in a rusty GTV; his hot take on the Cobra Daytona Coupe versus the plain-Jane roadster; sharing a Lister Knobbly with Sam Smith for a thousand miles; telling Keith Martin to stick to sports cars; the pitfalls and history-preserving rewards of being talked into book authorship while driving a 427 Cobra in the snow; buying "plenty" of Bugeye Sprites on the advice of Peter Egan; and important things scrawled on bathroom walls.

BaT is headed to Road America next week for our return to the WeatherTech Vintage Weekend with Brian Redman (sign up to come if you haven't already)! So we're revisiting our remastered 2021 discussion with BaT user Pedro, otherwise known as Peter Cunningham – he of an illustrious racing career in all manner of Hondas with the team he founded in 1987, RealTime Racing. Randy and Howard discuss his years of competition success before moving on to one of the most important Honda collections on earth, his RealTime Collection Hall. So much has happened for the race team in the four years since we recorded this episode, and we look forward to catching up with Peter and friends at his home track in a week's time!

Alex talks to mechanic, engineer, former race team crew chief, podcaster, and racing documentarian extraordinaire, Marshall Pruett. They cover a wide range of topics including an app recommendation; how writing relates to photography and filmmaking; being "part of a packing list": growing up in a Bay Area British car repair shop: street parking a race car: world-building via the Indy 500 radio broadcast; being a teenage jerk while Mario Andretti is trying to do his job; teaching an Indycar to play the national anthem; the stopping point in a race crew career; a stint at the worst biotech firm in Berkeley; Impostor Syndrome: Reporter Edition; favorite motorsports writers, photographers, and podcasts; emergency sponsorships; 1,620 episodes his podcast; and an ode to the racing and overall car community.
You can find Marshall in many places including on his website, as host of the Marshall Pruett Podcast, on Racer.com, in Road & Track, or at ESPN.com.

Alex and Randy review our recent blockbuster meet-up at the Portland, Oregon facility of Matt Crandall's Avant-Garde Collection, known as BaT seller and Local Partner 911r on BaT. The move on to discuss Matt's club racing career, exciting news in upcoming vintage races, interesting cars in the 911r pipeline, the team and effort it takes to operate at the highest levels as a top BaT seller, the beauty of the Local Partner model for those with more cars to sell than time to sell them, the Nailhead-powered '32 Ford coupe of Alex's dreams, unfortunate grounds for a fire extinguisher review, vintage NASCAR for the hobby racer, and the price of (however briefly) feeling like a man.

Alex interviews Karl Thomson, an accomplished race driver and team owner who, along with his wife Jill, is the co-founder of Compass Collective, a true-blue superstar BaT Local Partner. The Southern California transplant talks the correct length for an Airstream trailer; relives a family trip from Toronto to Acapulco in a diesel Rabbit; rationalizes race cars as quality parenting; describes a race career that spans from a lucky barn find to winning at the biggest tracks in the US; explains what drives a racer out of the driver's seat and into team ownership; says many unprompted nice things about BaT; and details his strategy and methods for presenting cars on the site.

Alex and Randy issue quick non-sequitur opinions on the Dekon Monza and an appealingly basic Fairlane before launching into a recap of the recent Curated Cars & Coffee event in The Netherlands. They then launch into the main event: Randy's subsequent five-country journey through the Alps to Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on Lake Como in his newly acquired 356A coupe, father (and lucky birthday boy) in tow. It's all there: countless hairpins in the passes, attempts to keep up with a Gullwing, windscreen wiper rationing, a thousand miles in Speedster seats, the Goldfinger Rolls, an impressive Bentley, and a hair-raising sprint to Munich on the Autobahn to cap it all off.

They cover Bimotas, Pops Yoshimura, Troy Lee's passion for his work, the mercifully reasonable weather in Carmel Valley, developing bonds with our motorcycle sellers, and the dedicated team of specialists at BaT.

Alex and road/track/circle/oval racer extraordinaire, dirt bike fan, dealership principal, and shrewd investor Boris Said talk about the life lessons and big breaks that led him from an early life of crime to one of the most widely varied racing careers of anyone on the planet. They cover Said's (very) early days as a car dealer, his sudden decision to go motor racing after reluctantly attending an F1 race in Detroit, a free-for-all on the Nurburgring, the greatest thing about NASCAR, his various on- and off-track business ventures, and the art of enjoying oneself.

Alex, Zac, and Beck get together to lick self-inflicted wounds; take a charmingly pessimistic view of what constitutes middle age; discuss how having a family influences one's driving style; compare the safety of a GT3 vs a handgun; talk about the changing tastes and time constraints associated with aging; equate driving in the Bay Area to driving on track; reveal the perception of a sports car in NYC versus California; wait for the vintage Fast & Furious style to come back around; and give a sad update on Leno's Law. The trio move on to an in-depth discussion about submissions and then address some great listener feedback from the last couple of episodes.

Randy and Alex bring on special guest and podcast newcomer Robbie Pyle, the Curation Manager for BaT (if you've never met Robbie, you must not hang out at California car events enough). They reminisce about the first local rallies and driving events that really got them hooked and enmeshed with the car community, and talk about how important it is to get out and use an old car with people who share your love of them. They discuss a number of California driving events both accessible and rarified, and close by deciding on their ideal fantasy entries for the Mille Miglia or Cal Mille, reliving a gorgeous downpour in Sonoma, and fondly remembering parking the very first BaT "company car" around San Francisco.
