From a pandemic hobby to podium finishes at prestigious races, Judd Holt's meteoric rise in the racing world exemplifies what's possible when passion meets persistence. Judd's story begins just four and a half years ago when, tired of pandemic isolation, he decided to try his hand at motor racing. What started as a curiosity quickly evolved into competitive racing in spec cars, then an M2 for endurance events, and now to professional competition in a factory-built BMW M4 GT4.The fascinating world of GT4 racing centers on a unique premise - every car must be identical according to strict regulations. With manufacturers like BMW, Mercedes, and Ford all building to the same specifications, there's nowhere to hide behind superior technology. When Judd stood on the podium at Long Beach, it was pure driver skill that put him there. "The car is basically the same," he explains. "They're identical... you can't jack with it."The physical and mental demands are extraordinary. Imagine hammering the brakes from 150 mph down to 35 mph at nearly every corner, staying on the ABS throughout. While navigating these challenges, drivers simultaneously manage complex car controls, including on-the-fly adjustments to traction control and brake bias. As Judd puts it, "Your vision is very tight... it's everything you can do to accommodate the speed, the cornering, and to put the car where it needs to be."Preparation is paramount, especially for street circuits like Long Beach where practice on the actual track isn't possible. Judd spends countless hours on racing simulators, working with dedicated engineers to optimize car setup and balance performance. This methodical approach, combined with natural talent, has propelled him to multiple podium finishes in an astonishingly short time.Ready to experience the thrill of professional racing? Follow Loopy Tortilla Motorsports on Facebook to keep up with Judd's next races at Circuit of the Americas, Sebring, and even Germany's legendary Nürburgring.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time car talk any time?

How to not get ripped off when buying a used classic car! How to spot fakes, frauds and phonies! The importance of documentation and pre-purchase inspections, and other lessons learned over 50 collective years of car shopping! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === We start off with a reminder to put fuel stabilizer in your car when it's going to sit for a while – especially if you're using garbage California gas. We debate what the acronym “smh” stands for, and discover there seems to be a cat-flatulence epidemic in France. Then we'll dive right into the importance of the pre-purchase inspection (PPI) – something Jason thought he was more than qualified to perform himself on a Le Mans-blue Alfa Romeo GTV at Monterey Car Week several years ago. However, at the urging of concours car-prep extraordinaire, Tim McNair, Jason acquiesced and let expert automotive consultant, Chuck Wray, take a look at the car, and almost immediately discovered that Jason was moments away from buying two GTVs that had been stealthily welded into one. Derek will fill us in on how there can possibly be multiple “numbers matching” cars with the same serial numbers. And we'll cover several of the factory-based archival certification programs like VW's Birth Certificate, Porsche's Kardex and Certificate of Authenticity, Lotus' Certificate of Vehicle Provenance, and the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust. We'll cover Ferrari Classiche (pronounced “classi-kay”), and the handful of exhaustive and painstakingly researched books detailing the specs of iconic models: Carrera RS, The Dino Compendium, and Simon Kidson's The Lamborghini Miura. Plus automotive engineering and restoration atelier, Pur Sang. We take a trip to Esoteria once again to discuss the subtlest model changes on cars like the Scirocco, Rover SD1 3500, Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 and what each change signifies (or doesn't in the case of VW's haphazard product planning). Jason even uncovers a handful of U.S.-spec C43s accidentally left the factory wearing a Europe-only paint color, Black Opal. Which is actually blue. Jason's approach to not getting screwed while buying a 996 cabriolet on eBay involves arriving at the seller's in a blacked out E39 BMW 5-series wagon with Argentina plates and wielding a baseball bat – classic haggling. Meanwhile, Derek does everything by the book and pays for a $500 PPI on a Porsche 911 he found online, only for it to arrive smoking and in need of a head rebuild. Both Carmudgeons revel in learning the histories of their cars (and others' cars): Jason getting the original paperwork for the Ferrari 308 GT4 from distributor Chinetti-Garthwaite to dealer Schwing Motor Company in 1975, and Derek tracking down his friend's 356's Kardex and subsequently locating photos of the car with its original owner when the car was brand new. There's loads of automotive history, forensics, anthropology and archaeology in this one! The question is, would you give up your original California plate if it meant no more SMOG checks? Leno's Law hopes to find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's time to be honest with each other and the world: Derek and Jason take turns roasting (or just honestly reviewing) the other's cars in their collections. Plus, they roast their own stuff. We'll cover the good and the bad of nearly all of the boys' various vehicles:  Derek's bikes – the Ducati Panigale V4S and Husqvarna 701 Supermoto.  Jason's E30s – the 325i wagon and beater sedan track car.  The mid-engine Italian exotics – Derek's Lamborghini Miura and Jason's 1975 Ferrari 308 GT4. Then, Jason's mid-engine micro machine 1991 Honda Beat. Naturally, a plethora of Mercedes products will be in the mix – the R129 500SL, W201 190E 2.3-16, W124 E320 wagon and W202 C43. The atypical oddballs: the Rover SD1 and Citroen CX.  Plus Jason's new-to-him V12 E31 BMW 850 CSi and Derek's favorite back-road weapon 964-chassis Porsche 911. And we'll round things out with Jason's babies – the VW Scirocco and Mk1 Cabriolet.  You'll learn about the Rover SD1's sketchy, outdated front suspension design, and the 190E's oversized steering wheel and underbolstered seats. The corpulent hamster styling of the e-Golf and terrible brake balancing on the Beat. The 964 sounds like flatulence, and the VW Cabriolet sounds like imminent disintegration. Recaro-equipped, art deco, cheap, and Zebra-print interiors. Sloppy shifters, burning odors, affordable V12 Ferraris and BMWs, and the Mk1 VWs' good vibrations versus the E30 M3's shit ones.  Join us for some Nikki Glaser-inspired antics, Carmudgeon-style!

Jason and Derek drive and discuss the legendary Lancia Stratos – its origins, its parts-bin interior, and its unhinged handling. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === On today's episode, things start off by looking at commenters' nominations for elegant mid-engine cars. Most are promptly rejected, but a handful give the Carmudgeons pause: the De Tomaso P72, McLaren Speedtail, Jaguar XJ220, Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, and Ferrari 296. And two previously overlooked but notably elegant exceptions are: the Ferrari 246 Dino and the first-generation Toyota Previa.  Afterwards, it's all things Stratos – starting with Jason's and Derek's driving impressions. They discuss the handling characteristics of this mind-bendingly miniature, Ferrari-engined, rally missile. Thanks to its short, upward-swept overhangs and relatively massive suspension travel, it can traverse rough terrain with ease (including massive potholes and steep driveways), setting it apart from your average sports car experience. But, like a fighter jet, it sacrifices stability in favor of maximum maneuverability.  They also cover its diminutive size (the Stratos is 2 feet shorter than a Mk8 VW Golf!) and its parts-bin interior – including the trunk release it shares with the Lamborghini Countach and Ferrari 308 GT4, exterior door handle from the Fiat X1/9, and interior door pull from the Miura (among others). Not to mention its paper-thin fiberglass “firewall,” and very unique hinged side windows.  Later on, discussions move to the origins of the car. From the philandering nature of mid-century Italian design houses like Pininfarina and Bertone, which seemed to take turns designing Italy's newest models at the time. Things like the Fiat Dino Coupe and Spider, and the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint and Sprint Speciale (not to mention the wild Stratos Zero concept by Marcello Gandini that became the wedge-shaped Stratos) – plus the dubious last-second rally homologation of the Stratos.  Lancia's little wedge would go on to race all across the world; from the Acropolis Rally in Greece, to the East African Safari Rally in Kenya, to the Press-on-Regardless Rally in Michigan. The Stratos, which replaced Lancia's too-fragile Fulvia, would prove itself plenty rugged and become a wildly successful rally car (but a total sales flop). Lancia's parent company, Fiat, wanted it out in favor of its new 131, but the Stratos' WRC wins continued thanks to privateers all the way up until the 1980s, when it was finally replaced by the 037. The Stratos Stradale, a car you could buy 50 years ago for the price of a mildly-luxurious contemporary GT like the Alfa Romeo Montreal – now goes for several hundreds of thousands of dollars. Probably one of the highest dollar-per-sq/ft ratios in the automotive world – start saving! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This episode we're joined by Malaysia's very own speed queen, Leona Chin — a trailblazing motorsports athlete and a name synonymous with adrenaline-fueled action. Late last year, Leona made waves by clinching the top spot at the 2024 China Circuit Sprint Challenge (CCSC) BMW M235i Cup, a triumph made even more special as she stood as the only female racer on the track. This hard-earned victory not only highlighted her talent but also marked a milestone in her career: her first-ever championship win in the fiercely competitive, high-octane series. Shortly after her groundbreaking victory, she also realized a lifelong dream by competing at the legendary Guia Circuit during the Macau Grand Prix — an event often dubbed the “World Cup of Motorsports.” Facing such elite contenders, Leona delivered an outstanding performance, securing an impressive 15th-place finish in the GT4 race.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Elias Sabo and Andy Lee are teammates in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship in an Aston Martin GTD (GT3) car. Sabo also drives an Aston Martin GT4 car in the SRO Americas championship. At the press day luncheon for the 2024 Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach we caught up with them to ask about their gorgeous race car and how they became teammates among other things. Sabo was pulling triple duty during race weekend with a single race in the GTD car (sharing with Lee) and two races in the GT4 car. Enjoy! NOTE: Next week, we'll have Andy give us a walkaround on each of the two different Aston Martin race cars. The Roar Before the 24 test, and the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona are coming up on January 17-19 and January 22-26, 2025. Also of note, after a challenging start to the season, the team switched manufacturers in August to the BMW M4 GT3/GTD platform looking for  their results to improve for 2025.

Benjamin LARICHE incarne la symbiose entre le sport automobile de haut niveau et l'entrepreneuriat. Passionné de course depuis son plus jeune âge, il a eu la chance de voir courir les légendes Ayrton SENNA et Alain PROST sur le circuit de Nevers-Magny-Cours. Cette passion l'a conduit à une carrière en sport automobile, passant par le karting, la Formule Renault, la Formule 2, et aujourd'hui le championnat GT4 européen où il évolue au plus haut niveau.Parallèlement à sa carrière de pilote, Benjamin a développé One Fitness Club, un concept innovant de salles de sport qui compte aujourd'hui 14 clubs et plus de 50 000 adhérents. Créée en 2016, cette entreprise familiale se démarque dans un secteur très concurrentiel par son approche unique. Le nom "One" fait écho à son ambition de pilote - la pole position, être premier - tandis que le concept répond à trois motivations principales identifiées chez les pratiquants : le sport-santé, la performance et le divertissement.La particularité de One Fitness Club réside dans sa capacité à réunir des publics différents sous un même toit, avec une mixité parfaite (50% d'hommes, 50% de femmes) et des espaces adaptés à chaque pratique. Cette approche inclusive se traduit notamment par des environnements distincts comme le "One Life" pour le sport-santé et le "Force One" pour les adeptes de la musculation.Aujourd'hui, Benjamin continue de mener de front ses deux passions avec succès. En GT4, il vise le titre de champion d'Europe tout en préparant l'expansion de One Fitness Club à travers un système de licence de marque puis de franchise à partir de 2026. Cette double carrière illustre parfaitement sa philosophie : ne jamais rien lâcher et toujours viser l'excellence, que ce soit sur la piste ou dans l'entrepreneuriat.Site web : https://onefitnessclub.fr/Linkedin : https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamin-lariche-a4ab62198/Hébergé par Ausha.

What do you do when you're bored of being one of the fastest 5-cylinder drag cars in the world? Double down and reach for a V10 is the answer Hank Iroz of Iroz Motorsport went with, and we're glad he did!Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inWith world-leading experience gained on the RS3 platform, the switch to the Audi R8 V10 is a similar area for the Iroz team, and with the R8 and Huracan platforms being similar and very active in the drag racing world, it's a great platform to be active with.It was early days for the car during this interview with a lot of work done but limited testing yet, however, the car was setup with weight balance as a primary focus, and as such the Xona Rotor X5C TR9980 performance turbos were not located out the back as we commonly see, but rather don't he side where some cooling is usually found, and a GT4 chassis was used as the starting point given they are already well caged and come with all the sensors you need, and probably some you don't for drag racing.With an AMS Performance and Dodson parts package plus a MoTeC electronics system as part of the puzzle, we're interested to see where this project heads in the future.

Two pods in two weeks?! You can't get rid of us. In this episode we're going somewhat unscripted because Andy's dog ate the show notes but don't let that put you off, this one's another cracker. We're talking about Andy's recent 'Mega-Loop' Rally and his upcoming 'Alpine Ridge Rally 10' while James is getting ready for his annual pilgrimage to the Smoky Mountains for some dragon slaying at Tail of the Dragon. Will he finally tune his 991 before he leaves?? We've also got some shocking news to report from Connecticut USA about Jay Read's beloved 928 and much more. Tune in, kick back and welcome to Curb and Canyon.

What took us so long? Supercars star Chaz Mostert joins us for a Darwin debrief. Ricky Bobby had Shake n Bake, but Chaz pulled off the ‘Cheeseburger Chase' at Hidden Valley, making a string of epic passes to turn a tough weekend around. He shares what Walkinshaw Andretti United needs and the good things already in their arsenal. We also look ahead to the next round at Townsville, discuss reuniting with Lee Holdsworth for the enduros, and get Chaz's thoughts on his fast and funny new teammate, Ryan Wood. But it's not all about Supercars. We delve into the wild modifications he's made to his first car (which he still has), his joy in fatherhood, racing in GT3, and owning a team in GT4. Plus, we check in on his #nosocialhate initiative, a reminder for all of us to play nice online.

Andy and James share their reactions to the 992.2. Porsche just recently announced the second generation 992 and besides adding a T-Hybrid engine that comes with the GTS variant, they're throwing everything else away - no rear seats, no manual transmission, no more key-start ignition, no more analog instrument cluster gauges. The cheek! In this episode we're also talking about the recent lawsuit Porsche brought against million-dollar modifiers 'Singer', we recap Porsche's recent adventures at Le Mans and Andy has a new daily driver! (To be honest, it's not a Beige Volvo, but it might as well be...).

We're talking to Andrew Miedecke for this week's episodes of the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Castrol – and we're releasing both parts at the same time! The second part of our two-part chat looks at the end of the road for Miedecke Motorsport as a touring car operation in 1989 and his union with Peter Brock, going from full-timer to co-driver for a host of elite squads, culminating in a Bathurst 1000 podium finish with Mark Larkham and Stone Brothers Racing in 1997. Miedecke also tells stories from racing NASCARs and winning Targa Tasmania, as well as going racing with son George and their current success in GT4 – which led to an unexpected congratulatory call from one of the biggest names in the automotive world!

On this week's show, Andrew, Bruce and PG rejoice at the return of #Supercars after what feels like and eternity, but is only four weeks. We preview the Perth round in this week's Auto Action RevLimiter. We've got all the news, including Cam Waters' #NASCAR Cup Series debut, Jett Lawrence's stunning Motocross Championship win, Oscar's better than Lando Drive and Andrew Miedecke wanting a dedicated 6-hour GT4 at Bathurst the day before the 12-Hour.

Over the years, we've played games from pretty much every genre under the sun, but there is one that is notably missing - the racing sim.  We've dabbled with arcade racers like Burnout 3, and have played several kart racers - Diddy Kong and F-Zero GX to name a couple.  But this is the first time we're trying to learn how to actually drive a racing card under somewhat realistic conditions.And what better game to start with than the highly lauded Gran Turismo 4?  It boasts hundreds of hours of gameplay, and you'd be hard pressed to find a racing sim fan who hasn't at least heard of it.  There are an endless number of cars, tracks and conditions, and it's the kind of racing game that requires you to do tutorials on how to brake and turn simple corners before you get to the actual racing part.So with all that in mind, just how good a video game is Gran Turismo 4?  What does it offer to someone who knows nothing about cars, and wants to go round a track really fast?  Is this a fun and engaging time, or is it a bland and dry simulator, for the ultra-enthusiasts only?On this episode, we discuss:TutorialsIn what ways does GT4 attempt to teach the player the basics of learning to drive your car on the race track?  Does it do enough to explain the why or does it just focus on the how? MechanicsJust how fun is it to race around the tracks?  Does the difficulty of taking corners and controlling steering end up being frustrating and repetitive, or is there a kind of satisfaction to be found here?Tuning and UpgradingGT4 features an incredible number of different cars to choose from, upgrade options for them, and a bevy of ways to tune them to perform in different ways.  How good is the game at delivering this information to the player so that they make informed choices?We answer these questions and many more on the 119th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast! Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherGran Turismo 4 OST: Various Artists Is Gran Turismo 4 the best racing sim of its era, or is there a better retro equivalent?  How have modern racing sims changed from the formulae of the original?  Are there any racing sims with a gentler learning curve when it comes to tuning your car?  Come let us know what you think on our community discord server!You can support us monetarily on our Buy me a Coffee page

 GHiT 0564:  Johan Schwartz – All About Racing and Car Control We loved our car control clinic at CMP a few weeks ago and Johan Schwartz was kind enough to come onto the podcast this week.  During the episode, we talk about a lot of Johan's past and how he has progressed to this point in his racing career.  We also talk about his car control clinic which was very helpful to us and well worth the trip.  Johan also indulges us in going through each of his three World Records in drifting and we have a looooong way to go to catch him.  Lol.

This week, Marc has a seat related disaster with his GT4 and throws out conspiracy theories left right and centre. He also has plans to visit Italy later this year. Ajmal has significant progress on his garage and he has ventured out to a cars and coffee event! There's discussion on the listening numbers of the podcast which have surprised both of them. There's a lot to unpack in the world of F1 and there's the usual riveting segues into talking about the weather and taking steroids. This is the Porsche Talk podcast. Ajmal is @flatcapdriver Marc is @marcandcars We hope you're listening (not watching) from behind the wheel!

Alex joins us to share his journey in the world of motorsport. He goes into detail on how he got behind the wheel of a GT4 and had a competitive season before being taken out later in the 2022 season with extensive damages. He also discusses how training on iRacing with his simulator has improved his skills and knowledge drastically.

The guys are back talking a higher level of nonsense today. Marc discusses new Porsche Macan and Cayenne prices and gives his view on the market in general from the perspective of a seller (his GT4 is on the market at present). Ajmal has completely lost his mind and considering buying all sorts of “cheap” Porsches and modifying in crazy ways when he doesn't have the money to put petrol in them. You're going to want to message him to snap him out of it! This is the Porsche Talk podcast. Ajmal is @flatcapdriver Marc is @marcandcars We hope you're listening (not watching) from behind the wheel!

In this first episode of a new series, we are delighted to be joined by David Brown,  Nigel Mansell's Race Engineer throughout Nigel's race- and championship-winning years at Williams.  Based now in the US, where he is in charge of Porsche North America GT3 and GT4 on-track performance, David talks to Peter about his early days at Williams; winning with Nigel and the FW10B-Honda; the Golden Years of 1986-87, when the Williams FW11 and FW11B-Hondas were producing over 1100bhp; and about the 1991-92 seasons, when the Patrick Head-Adrian Newey Williams FW14 and FW14B-Renaults were the class of the F1 field.  As Peter was also the Williams team manager at this time, our chat with David naturally includes lots of laughs about shared incidents and timeless memories.Visit: https://youtube.com/peterwindsor for F1 videos past, present and future

Jason drives the 2024 Porsche 911 S/T, the latest limited-production sports car from the Rennsport division of Porsche that makes the GT2, GT3, and GT4. And this leads to a discussion of our favorite drives of the year. == This episode of “The Carmudgeon Show” is presented by Valentine One Radar Locator: Find radar before it finds you! https://bit.ly/Valentine1_Hagerty Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-ICONS == The 2024 Porsche 911 S/T is the 992's version of the 991.1's 911R — the ultimate driver's car within the 911 lineup. A naturally aspirated, 9000-rpm, independent-throttle-body, 518-hp flat-six with a 6-speed manual. It's limited-production, which is frustrating, but has convinced Jason that it's the best sports car on the market today. Or perhaps ever. The discussion leads Jason Cammisa and Derek Hyphen to discuss their favorite drives of the year, including quick reviews of: Rimac Nevera Ford F-150 Raptor R Lotus Emira Toyota GR Corolla Morizo Lancia Delta Integrale Renault R5 Turbo Évolution Ferrari 250 California Spider replice Ferrari 246 Dino Toyota GR Yaris Circuit Audi RS2 Avant Porsche 911 RS (964) Porsche 911 GT2 (997) Bentley Mulsanne EWB Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II Lucid Air Sapphire ...and of course a quick discussion of the politics surrounding Jason's review of the Tesla Cybertruck, including Matt Farah (The Smoking Tire) objections.
