Katherine Legge was announced yesterday (April 9th) as a driver in the 2024 Indianapolis 500 for Dale Coyne Racing with RWR. On the same day she was at the press day for this year's Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach where we got to sit down with her and chat about her new opportunity. She was also very candid in discussing the incident with Stefan Wilson last year along with how and why it happened. Legge is super talented and was the first female to win a professional open wheel race when she made her debut at Long Beach in the Formula Atlantic series in 2005. Our interview was kept a bit short as she had to get to the airport and catch a flight back to Indy to be able to get on track at the Speedway today for the open test today and tomorrow. Enjoy! Note: In the Rookie Orientation Practice (ROP) and veteran refresher session at the Brickyard this morning, Legge was second quickest behind former “500” pole sitter Marco Andretti. Next week on April 18, 2024, Legge will be inducted into the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame. She'll be the first female inductee there ever.

**We're spending a couple of weeks away from the microphone over the Christmas and New Year period. This means that although we won't be publishing any new guest appearances until mid-January, we're going to be bringing back some of our favourite older episodes that deserve another listen.**The 2JZ-GTE isn't Toyota's only iconic tuner engine — before the famous straight six was anywhere near production-ready, enthusiasts and racers were already years deep into the development of the venerable 1600cc four-cylinder 4A-GE. In this episode, we sit down with Matt Trevena of MT Performance Engines to discuss everything Toyota 4A-GE, engine building, and much more. Use “MTPERFORMANCE50” for 50% off our HPA Engine Building Fundamentals course here: https://hpcdmy.co/enginebuildAs a teenager, Matt Trevena fell in love with a neighbour's 4A-GE powered KE70, and that exposure, combined with a healthy dose of Initial D, started Matt on a path that would shape his entire career, culminating in where it is today, building some of the most hardcore 4A-GEs around — including a genuine holy-grail Formula Atlantic motor.Matt spent the first few years of his career building everything from lawnmower engines to massive car-sized 16-cylinder train engines before jumping on board with Sydney's Maatouk's Racing to put together big-power RBs and everything else in between. Now running his own performance engine building company, Matt has become the go-to guy when it comes to hardcore Japanese motors — but especially the Toyota 4A-GE.As you probably already guessed, this episode goes way deep into the weeds on all things 4A-GE, covering the differences between the available variants, the best combinations of parts and generations, how to extract the most power, revs, and longevity out of them, as well as a deep dive into the ultimate 4A-GE — the Formula Atlantic motor.This conversation also covers plenty of general performance engine building information, so even if this classic Toyota motor isn't of particular interest to you, the knowledge found in this episode makes it a must-listen for any self-respecting enthusiast.Follow MT Performance Engines here:IG: @mtperformanceenginesFB: MT Performance EnginesYT: 199niko199Don't forget, use “MTPERFORMANCE50” for 50% off our HPA Engine Building Fundamentals course here: https://hpcdmy.co/enginebuild

Sue Stockdale talks to Terry Scannell, a volunteer Motorsport UK race official who is the Permanent Clerk of Course for the Sports 2000 Championship. Terry explains what it's like being in Race Control and having overall responsibility for the general conduct and control of a race event, and how he deals when unexpected situations like a change of weather, which can make life a little trickier for everyone involved. Terry Scannell began marshalling on track as a Flag / Incident Marshal in 1969 and went on to assist Steve Bradley with running Karts in 1972 and Mark Dunham in Formula Ford 1600; then from 1973 running a fleet of Van Diemen Formula Fords, F2000 and a Lotus 69 F2 Chassis in Formula Atlantic. Over the years he has worked with other race teams, including assisting Colin Thorpe to run Ralt RT1, Argo JM6, Chevron B34, B38, B47 and March 773 F3 cars in the British F3 Vandervell Championship and European F3 Championships, and other F3 and F2 cars in the Monoposto Championship, winning this Championship outright in 1982 and 1984. He has concentrated for the last 20 years being a volunteer Motorsport UK Clerk of Course working with clubs such as MSVR, HSCC, CSCC, BRSCC and MGCC, and is currently Permanent Clerk of Course for Sports 2000, Clubman's Sports Prototypes, Monoposto Championship, Teideman Championship and F3 Cup.About Sports 2000: The Sports2000 Championship has been established since 1977 and features three championships - Duratecs, Pintos and Historic Pintos.

At the end of the day, they're our customers from the point of view of the club organizing the meeting”.‘When I was 14, I started marshalling at Snetterton as a flag marshal/Incident marshal which you could in those days at that age. There were no such things as safety cars, red flags and if there was an incident, we jumped down off the bank and dealt with it right in the middle of the actual race.'‘It's basically very similar to the race director role in F1. You're having to make decisions based on what you're seeing happen, dealing with sudden changes of circumstance.'‘I'm not one of those Clerks of the Course that locks myself in a dark room all day and never talks to drivers unless I'm printing out a judicial form with a penalty. What I really enjoy is the part of getting out in the paddock.'‘I do find is one that helps to build a degree of respect between the competitors and the Clerks in that we actually try to understand their situation.'‘We want to get the right answers for all the drivers concerned and make sure that everybody gets their full enjoyment of the meeting in the right manner.'Support for this podcast comes from Broad Town Brewery – the microbrewery in Wiltshire with big ambitions. www.broadtownbrewery.co.uk Sound Editor: Matias De EzcurraProducer: Sue Stockdale

Soprannominato l'Aviatore, iniziò la propria carriera sportiva partecipando a gare tra motoslitte nella nativa provincia del Québec. Successivamente passò alla guida delle monoposto, e nel 1976, vinse sia il campionato di Formula Atlantic canadese che quello statunitense. Un anno più tardi la McLaren fece esordire Villeneuve in Formula 1 al Gran Premio di Gran Bretagna 1977; nel corso della medesima annata la Scuderia Ferrari lo ingaggiò per le ultime due gare stagionali in sostituzione di Niki Lauda. Legatosi alla scuderia di Maranello per il resto della carriera fece registrare sei vittorie nei Gran Premi ed una vittoria nella Race of Champions del 1979 a Brands Hatch (gara non valida per il titolo), oltre ad un secondo posto nella classifica del Mondiale 1979 alle spalle del compagno di squadra Jody Scheckter come miglior risultato. Morì a seguito di uno schianto a 227 km/h causato da un contatto con la March di Jochen Mass durante le qualifiche per il Gran Premio del Belgio 1982 sul circuito di Zolder, a bordo della Ferrari 126 C2. Villeneuve era molto popolare per il suo stile di guida combattivo e spettacolare, e da allora è diventato un simbolo della storia di questo sport. Le sue vittorie e svariate altre prestazioni vengono considerate capolavori assoluti nella storia della Formula 1, anche perché spesso sono state ottenute al volante di monoposto non all'altezza di quelle della concorrenza
