Brandon and Bryant were both hung over for this recording and Conner couldn’t make it, so fair warning this one is a little more scatter-brained than normal. After getting caught up on our project cars we talk about the IATSI and John Deer strikes (23:46), before discussing what cars we would build if money was no object (46:00). Plus tangents on electric drag racing, the Pike’s Peak Hill Climb, Ford big blocks, and upbeat songs with tragic lyrics. Notes/Links:
