GHiT 0475:  The Great Alaska Rally Wrapup

Rally Master Jeff Stobbs joins us again to review the recent Lemons rally that went to the 49th state.  This was a first time event and easily one of the most memorable rallies that Lemons has hosted.  How did it go?  Did anyone hit a moose or have a moose hit them?  What did the locals think of a Lemons rally?  Did they sacrifice any cars to the Rally gods by driving them off a cliff?  Tune in and find out.  Same Bat Time.  Same Bat Channel.

GHiT 0471:  Zach Caldwell Live from the Vannonball Great American Bro’d Trip

Calling in live from GingerMan, Zach Caldwell calls from his fourth straight race weekend in the race van to conclude the 2023 Great American Vannonball Bro’d Trip. Why race in a minivan? Who would race 4 weekends in a row?  Why a 2006 Dodge Caravan is the world’s greatest race car? How tired can one person be?  All this and more in this one. Bill has some terrible ideas brewing.

In summary, the Great American Bro’d trip started off in Detroit and after 2,100 miles race 1 at Thunder Hill.  A swift and easy 700 miles to High Plains Raceway.  A few gallons of gas and 1,700 miles to NJMP Thunderbolt. And a final leg to a surprising entry to GingerMan raceway. To get back home after this, it was only 350 miles that took around 12 fatigue induced hours, lol.

GHiT 0469:  Rachel Thurow – Drag Racing and Beyond

Rachel Thurow joins the podcast this week to discuss her drag racing program and rapidly expanding racing in virtually any discipline.  If there is one thing we love it is cross training and enjoying you car in as many ways as possible.  Rachel is probably the first primary drag racing guest so Vicki gets very excited to investigate something we haven’t done.  Yet.  We had great fun talking with Rachel and see a lot of things in common and potential for future plans (and bad decisions).
