Nikita and Ilya of @oilstainlab are coming on the pod this afternoon, so I went to their studio to check out their gorgeous HF11 concept. Seems interesting, with two available powertrains. Patrons catch it live, everyone else next week!
Installing the most important part of my new @meyersmanx - Hanna's "Bouquet of Hot Dogs" shift knob. 20 more minutes on the world's stupidest car on the Yatubes today.
TST 1029 - @jasoncammisa is back! We talk about what happens when you crash your vintage car on the way to a shoot, manual-swapped Neo-vintage AMG's, and two hours of rambling fun!
I have a confession: I've been taking Waymos. And they are genuinely pretty amazing. They feel like if you had a very safe, but very old and nervous cab driver. However, it has a bit of a problem finding the shop.
Had such a nice time at the @avantsofficial Classics on the Green! Beautiful weather, great people, and a huge variety of cars! That harlequin Beetle is a real, mexico-spec car, painted like that from the factory the same year as we got the Golfs. The classic Alpine looks like a scale model version of the one I just drove. Viper towing a Viper gets'r done. I looked at the painted 356 for like 20 minutes - it's much nicer than the Joplin car. Definitely an event to keep on the PNW car stuff calendar for next year!
Tortie tree kitten update: they are perfect, actually. @mteovr got the right family of girls.

Video with the @bgbmotorsportsgroup 911 Turbo S-swapped Cayman is now up on the channel. you're gonna want to hear it.
Seattle people! I'm coming to you! I'll be at the @avantsofficial Classics on the Green this coming Sunday, July 13th (and at the pre-party the night of the 12th if you roll like that). Come say hi! I'll be signing these posters if you care about those sorts of things, but there all day!
Riding the Can-Am Pulse this weekend! It's an electric motorcycle with 47 hp, an 8.9 kWh battery, and 340 lb weight. It does 0-60 in 3.8 seconds and will top out at 85 mph. Not bad! My review on Tuesday's podcast (Pro Drivers get it tomorrow)
My weekend with Finn....
Some new writing for @roadandtrack I thought about the fact that Lexus was killing the LC500, while simultaneously I had the need to do a 1,300 mile road trip to scout our Seaside-to-Sierra event this fall. Not driving the LC500 anymore was unacceptable to me, so I asked for the last press car and wrote about it. Up on the site and Apple News now!
