The One-Year Garage requires them to pick one car from a certain model year for each of five categories: Sports Car, Family Hauler, Truck/4x4, Daily Driver, and Wild Card. They make up the rules as they go, and along the way discuss local trivia about The Graduate; a two-tone requirement for Randy's future car collection; whether it's necessary to remember the names of one's offspring; dieting to fit in your diminutive daily driver; a little-known fact about the '67 Mustang; an episode-long argument [you're both right! -Ed.]; a heated debate about what constitutes a sports car [you're all right! -Ed.]; how said definition relates to the owner's heart health; and the undying question, "how wild is wild?"We want to know: What five cars are on your list?

Episode 175 of the Taproom Podcast — host Mike sits down with Dylan Prater of Mother Road Brewing in Flagstaff to explore the brewery's story, history, and community role. Dylan shares how Mother Road started in 2011, the growth to a production facility, and the taproom's focus on "radical hospitality." Topics include the Arizona 250 lager (the state celebration beer), the flagship Tower Station IPA, the pilot brew system and creative one-offs (including a massive quad IPA), the diner-style pub menu, and local collaborations and events like the Amp Ale and the Flagstaff Brewery Trail. Expect casual behind-the-scenes stories, beer recommendations (Daily Driver, Double Six, Tower Station), reflections on building community in Flagstaff, Dylan's outdoor lifestyle (climbing and local trails), and tips for visitors — all delivered with a warm, conversational vibe.

Today on The Daily Driver, I'm sharing the audio version of my latest National Dragster column, “The Great Debate.” This piece dives into one of the most talked-about discussions in sportsman drag racing history, the debate surrounding Scotty Richardson and Peter Biondo. Two of the most accomplished and influential racers the sport has ever seen. 

I detta avsnitt gästas jag av Cristian Barbu.Vi spolar tillbaka bandet till vart bilintresset kom ifrån och vilka bilar han har ägt under åren.Men vi pratar dessutom om att pressa en Cupra R på banan och den ultimata utmaningen: Hur bygger man en bil som levererar maximalt på racerbana, men som ändå fungerar perfekt som Daily Driver på gatan?Det blir ett avsnitt proppfullt med bandagar, modifikationer och rent nördigt bilsnack!Trevlig lyssning!

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast gets deep into it this week, with a "review" of the impressive and high end 2026 Land Rover Defender Octa, a performance oriented version of the off road SUV. While Jaguar and Range Rover get the SV treatment for their high output models, Defender gets an Octa badge, though it features the same BMW sourced turbo V8 and 6D suspension as the Range Rover Sport SV. Which JLR super SUV camp do you belong to? What makes a six figure SUV special? What differentiates this from a G63 AMG? Then Benjamin checks out the 2026 Buick Encore GX, a subcompact crossover that used to represent the growth of the American premium brand, but now seems a bit dated compared to other Buick vehicles. Benjamin explains it all with careful perspective of where the Encore stands with the impressive Envista sitting next to it. Then the show introduces a new concept: tire testing! Benjamin throws on some new summer rubber on his Daily Driver and can't wait to tell you the results. Thanks for listening!

Today on The Daily Driver, I share one of my favorite memories involving my father and a lesson in belief, perseverance, and passion for racing that has stayed with me for nearly 25 years. From a rain-delayed national event in Topeka to a wounded race car and a matchup against my idol, this story is about more than competition, it's about the unwavering confidence a parent can instill and the impact that belief can have long after the moment has passed. 

This week's Question of the Week comes from David, who asks: How do I strategize against my opponent at different types of race tracks when it comes to time slips. For example at Worldwide drag strip they use the time slip app I can look up an opponent's car number and gauge whether he's dialing honest or holding some numbers. How do I strategize against my opponent at racetracks like Benton that still use the paper time slips?"If you've got a topic you want us to tackle, submit it at thisisbracketracing.com/ask.

This BaT Podcast episode, recorded on a particularly active day for the motorcycle shop next door, sees Alex, Randy and Cam choosing the best of the transitory period between the late '50s and mid '60s. They set the stage with politics, the state of American optimism, and the top film, music and motorsports events of the year before picking their favorite vehicles in the Sports Car, Truck/4x4, Family Hauler, Daily Driver, and Wild Card categories. Along the way: driving a DB4 in flip flops; wildly varying opinions on the '60 Galaxie lineup; a country sedan that isn't; big honkin' Brit cars; light name-calling; a tight race in trucks; a helluva deal; an aquatic detour in high style; an aspirational rush into GT territory; overloading a Giulietta TI; a sad Mini merger; and a most honorable mention. Links for things mentioned in this episode:0:57  All previous auction results for model year 196014:58  1960 Porsche 356B Super w/ GT Fuel Tank17:07  1960 Fiat-Abarth 750 Sestriere by Zagato20:18  1960 Aston Martin DB4 4.225:10 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster26:50 Targa Florio-Class-Winning 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato34:36 Confusing Name: 1960 Ford Country Sedan36:31 1960 Citroen DS1936:36  Citroën Spring T-Shirt in the BaT Gear Store40:01 Ex–Alfred Hitchcock 1958 Bentley S1 Continental Saloon by Mulliner41:08 LQ4-Powered 1960 Bentley S2 Continental Flying Spur by H.J.

Today on The Daily Driver, we reflect on graduation. Young racers stepping into full-size competition. It's an emotional transition and a reminder of how fast it all goes. These drivers are capable, talented, and how we choose to support them will help shape the future of the sport. 

On this episode of The Daily Driver, we talk about pressure. Why it shows up, how experience changes it, and why it never fully goes away. The key isn't eliminating pressure, but learning to embrace it as a sign you care and letting it prepare you to perform at your best. 

This week we're putting a modern twist on everybody's favorite game: The One Year Garage is visiting the fresh, dewy, barely sentient year of 2026 to see what of its offerings might strike the fancy of the diehard old-car obsessives on our panel. Spoiler alert: there are strongly held opinions, some of which are not the same as yours. Along the way, they also cover Tekashi 6ix9ine; hypercar ignorance; the cost of modern car ownership; when 2014 still means "new"; auto show nostalgia; Fiero dreams; DRS on a "street car"; (good) weird small cars; non-metallic snarkiness; exotic e-bikes; Dakar semis; a far-off Scout fantasy; gigantic vehicles with gobs of power; going solo in a Sterrato; Morgan snarkiness; and a general unease with the new car industry. For those unfamiliar, the rules of One Year Garage are simple: each of our contestants, round-robin-style, pick a vehicle for every one of five categories: Sports Car, Daily Driver, Family Hauler, Truck/4x4, and Wild Card. All picks must be (or will theoretically be) available during the 2026 model year. Once a particular car has been picked, it can't be picked again. Self-doubt is encouraged, and judgment must be passed on others' choices. Arguments about what belongs in a certain category are expected. And the group must accidentally leave out at least one important option, the absence of which must raise the ire of a minimum of two people on Instagram.

In this episode of The Daily Driver, I'm exploring the power of community and why no one truly succeeds alone. Drawing from a powerful study, personal experience, and lessons from TIBR Jr. and ELITE, I break down how independence can get you started but growth accelerates when you surround yourself with people who share your ambition. The right community doesn't just support you… it makes you better. 

In this episode of The Daily Driver, I share advice I gave a young racer heading to his first big-money, multi-day event. The one word he needed to hear? Grace.Big events are long, expectations are high, and mistakes are part of the process. The difference isn't whether you mess up, it's how you respond when you do. This episode is about trusting the racer you know you are, letting go of the occasional mistake, and moving forward with confidence.

From time to time on The Daily Driver, I like to share the audio version of my column, The Science of Winning, which appears in NHRA's National Dragster magazine. This week's piece is titled “The Stuff of Legends.”

In this episode of The Daily Driver, we're talking about how racers can make real gains during what we call separation season, the offseason. While many step away or hit pause, this is actually the best opportunity to improve, refine habits, and build an edge that shows up when it matters most. 

In this episode of The Daily Driver, I'm talking about a familiar concern in racing, the rising cost of competition and what it means for the future of the sport. It's something I've wrestled with lately, until I realized my own dad was saying the same thing more than 30 years ago. And since then, the sport hasn't just survived, it's thrived in ways none of us could have predicted.

Today we're talking about what happens when you shift your focus to something new on the track. Maybe you're rock-solid on the tree, but decide to prioritize the finish line next round. You execute perfectly there but suddenly you're late on the tree. Sometimes the mental energy required to level up a new skill takes away from the things you normally do well. So what's the answer?

This means they're exposed to everything from scorching sun , rain & snow to rocks, dust, bug guts, road salt, tree sap, fresh asphalt and a whole lot more! If they're lucky, these vehicles get washed once or twice a month, but many, like today's Toyota Corolla, haven't seen a proper wash in years!Want to get your hands on the latest & greatest detailing towels, chemicals and tools from this year's TRCMA show?

In this episode of the Daily Driver, I'm unpacking something I recently said during a webinar: I'd rather be wrong than indecisive. In everyday life, I'm intentional, I take my time before reaching conclusions because I value learning and adaptability. But when it comes to racing, I will stand behind what I said in that webinar.
