What happens when you take a pink Corvette, slap on endurance-racing numbers, & throw it onto one of the dustiest, tracks in America—lovingly known as “The Butt”? Pure chaos, that’s what!
In this week’s Pugeot episode 405, Ken stays up past his bedtime again, Ken drives a trailer without lights, Barbie drives cross country, & Ken fixes & breaks a Lotus.
Really the crew recaps the absolute madness of racing a Barbie-themed Corvette at Buttonwillow Raceway Park. Spoiler: the car may have been plastic in spirit, but the laughs were 100% real. From long nights of prep, questionable garage engineering, & more glitter than should legally be near a race car, we take you behind the scenes of one of the most ridiculous (& strangely successful) endurance racing themes ever.
Tales from the paddock — who broke down, who broke out the Barbie costumes, & who broke curfew.
News & Notes — from Robot U-Turns to $10,000 adult Power Wheels to why Japan’s traffic lights are actually blue.
Tech woes & wins — even Barbie’s Dream Car can’t escape wiring gremlins & trailer brake drama.
Race recaps & listener shoutouts — including the most creative teams, the wildest penalties, & the best grassroots garage hacks we’ve seen this season.
If you’re into amateur racing, garage builds, automotive comedy, or just love hearing how far people will go to embarrass themselves in the name of racing glory, this episode’s for you. We don’t promise you’ll learn much, but you will laugh, nod in sympathy, & maybe even feel a little better about your own project car.
So whether you’re wrenching, hauling your race car to the track, or just need a laugh on your commute—buckle up. The Barbie Corvette at The Butt is a story you don’t want to miss.
