Ahora, hablemos de la fábula del patito feo que se convierte en cisne. Ya ha pasado antes, con coches como el Citroën M35, GM Impact, Oldsmobile Jetfire Rocket o el Ford Edsel, denostados en su momento y ahora escasos y muy valorados. La “gracia” de este asunto es comprarlos cuando todavía son “patitos feos” y no cuando ya se han convertido en cisnes… a lo mejor te damos alguna idea. Vamos con nuestra lista por orden cronológico. En este podcast os traigo buenas noticias. Y es que nuestros amigos de Planeta DeAgostini, con cada colección que lanzan mejoran a la anterior. Si te gustan los coches americanos, si te gustan los famosos "Muscle cars" no te la puedes perder, porque está dedicada a los Ford Mustang más legendarios. Sí, es que es habitual hablar del "Ford Mustang"... ¡cómo si solo hubiese uno! Y la selección que ha hecho Planeta DeAgostini para esta serie es muy acertada y abarca desde el Mach 1 al Boss 429 sin olvidar a modelos como el King Cobra o quizás es más mítico de todos, el Shelby GT 350. Aquí los veis, se trata de modelos de escala 1/43 en metal y plástico inyectado y decorados a mano... la calidad es impresionante. Y la colección incluye fascículos muy interesantes donde te cuentan toda la historia del Mustang... incluso que este nombre era el de los caballos de los indios del Western. Y si te suscribes hay sorpresas, la miniatura del primer Mustang, láminas, una taza, camiseta... Si eres fan de los deportivos "Made in USA"... ¡no te lo puedes perder! -En este enlace tienes toda la información: Link: https://tinyurl.com/garajehermetico -Usa el código: GARAJE para apoyar a Garaje Hermético Trabant (1960-1991). El paradigma de lo que os digo, un modelo del que encontrabas, literalmente, coches tirados en la calle que nadie quería, lo he visto con mis propios ojos, y que ahora puedes vender, si tienes uno en razonable buen estado, por 4.500 o 6.000 €. UMM “Jabato” (1986-1994). En realidad, me refiero a los UMM que viene de União Metalo-Mecanica S.A. inició la producción, bajo licencia, de unos vehículos todo terreno de origen francés. Subaru SVX (1991-1996). Un coche caro y minoritario, del que solo se fabricaron unas 25.000 unidades. El diseño de Giugiaro y el coche es excelente… pero nunca fue comprendido. Plymouth Prowler (1997-2002). Se vendió bajo la marca Plymouth mayoritariamente, pero también como Chrysler y en total solo se construyeron 11.702 que, para mí, ya se han convertidos en cisnes... pero creo que seguirán subiendo. Toyota Prius (1997-2003). Por supuesto, me refiero a la primera generación, un coche que no me atrevo a calificar de feo, pero si de un poco insulso. Fiat Multipla (1998-2004). Por supuesto, insisto, me refiero a la primera generación. A mí, un coche que me sedujo desde el principio, me parecía un coche que llegaba del futuro y con personalidad. Chrysler PT Cruiser (1999-2010). Un coche que se mantuvo en producción 11 años y que vendió 1,35 millones de unidades, pero no es un coche que despertase pasiones ni en sus USA natales ni fuera de ella. Lancia Thesis (2001-2009). Un “fijo” en listas de este tipo. Solo se fabricaron 16.000 unidades y muy pocas de ellas con motor de cinco cilindros atmosférico de 2.4 litros y 170 CV, para mí la mejor elección. Renault Vel Satis (2001-2009). Ya es un “patito feo” con todas las de la ley… ¡lo encuentras por poco más de 1.000 €! Un coche para comprar, guardarlo en condiciones en un garaje y sacarlo dentro de 10 años… te garantizo que ganas dinero. Nissan Cube (2002-2008). En este caso la generación más “polémica” no es la primera sino la segunda… reconozco que soy un friki, porque me gusta. ¿Se convertirá en cisne? Puede que sí. Citroën C3 Pluriel (2003-2012). Este coche nació siendo “patito feo” … Eso de un coche que si lo descapotas tienes que subirte algunas piezas a cada… no fue una buena idea. Nissan Leaf (2010-Presente). Una apuesta arriesgada. Aún ni se ha convertido en patito feo, de momento es el coche eléctrico probablemente más barato que puedas comprar, desde 6.000 € lo puedes encontrar en España.

Os aseguro que, si lo haces bien, ganas dinero… y además disfrutas mucho. Como en la bolsa puedes hacer apuestas muy seguras, pero que ganas menos, y otras arriesgadas que si te salen bien, ganarás más.

¿Se puede odiar a un coche? Seguro que para ti o para mí, verdaderos “enfermos” de todo lo que tenga 4 ruedas y motor, es imposible. ¡Pero!... depende. Hay coches que realmente se han ganado el odio de sus propietarios y-o de los aficionados por diversos motivos… vamos a verlos. ¿Qué motivos hay para odiar a un coche? Esta es la clave del asunto. Y vamos a ver estos motivos. Primero, la estética. Y es que hay coches feos, muy feos. Cierto que los ha habido muy rupturistas, demasiado innovadores o arriesgados. Pero no, no hablo de estos, hablo de los que son feos con ganas Segundo, que sean una propuesta absurda. Os lo explico con un ejemplo, ya que hemos hablado de SUV. Aunque, como decía mi madre, “a la fuerza ahorcan” y ya comienzo a ver los SUV con otros ojos, trato de ponerme en los ojos de sus compradores… dese luego no son mis coches favoritos. Pero, sinceramente, un SUV Coupé me parece una tontería, con las desventajas de un SUV y de un Coupé. Pero, ¿hay algo más estúpido que un SUV descapotable? Lo habrá, pero… no se me ocurre. Tercero, coches que no van bien, que no están bien resueltos. Ni son prácticos ni agradables de conducir o gastan mucho o pesan demasiado… ¡o todo al mismo tiempo! Cuarto y quizás el más importante: Una clamorosa falta de fiabilidad. Un coche que te deja tirado, que hay que llevar al taller cada dos por tres y dejarte un dinero… a ese coche lo acabas odiando. Yo tuve un coche fantástico… pero al que llegué a tener manía por esto (CONTAR Mitsubishi Grandis). Como os digo siempre, todos estos motivos pueden ir juntos o por separado, no son excluyentes unos de otros. Tras investigar un poco, hacer una criba y armarme de argumentos, me he dado cuenta de una cosa: La mayoría de los coches elegidos son “Made in USA”. ¿Casualidad? ¿Injusticia? Pues no, es lógico. Y no es peyorativo. Y tiene su explicación. Los norteamericanos son de otra pasta y valoro mucho en ellos que no temen el fracaso. Son grandes emprendedores y para ellos eso de que “se aprende más de los fracasos que de los éxitos” no es solo una frase hecha, es una forma de entender la vida. Y los fabricantes norteamericanos en ocasiones arriesgan más y hacen propuestas más locas que los europeos o japoneses. Vamos con estos 12+1 coches que puedes llegar a odiar. 1. Chrysler PT Cruiser (1999). No era barato. Gastaba mucho combustible. No contaba con un acabado de calidad. Tampoco iba especialmente bien… y ese estilo “moderno-clásico-barroco” no gustó. Pese a todo se fabricaron 1.8 millones de unidades… que costo vender. 2. Chrysler Sebring Cabrio (1996). Pude probar el 2.0 16v LX, que se supone que daba 163 CV… se supone. No estaba bien acabado y le sonaba todo. En los USA había foros con cientos de entradas de clientes quejándose del coche… 3. Dodge Omni (1977). Otros experimentos de adaptar diseños europeos al mercado americano habían fracasado, pero los de Chrysler pensaron: “Nosotros lo haremos bien”. Pues no. El coche tenía una calidad muy baja, a sus propietarios les parecía peligroso y daba mucho problemas…. Y bonito, lo que se dice bonito, no es. 4. Kia Opirus (2003). Los de Kia pensaron “vamos a hacer un coche que sea como un Mercedes-Benz, pero muy barato”. A ver, muy barato era… pero ¿cómo un Mercedes? 5. Edsel (1958). Os doy algunos datos: Solo se fabricó tres años de 1958 a 1960, supuso unas pérdidas de 250 millones de dólares, casi arruina a la marca y apenas se fabricaron 116.000 unidades… ¡muuuucho menos de lo previsto! El motor daba problemas, el coche no tenía calidad, a los compradores les parecía muy feo… y ahora… ¡se cotiza muchísimo! Se calcula que han sobrevivido apenas 7.000 unidades. 6. GM Impact (1996). El coche no corría nada y aunque anunciaba una autonomía de 113 km en la primera versión y hasta 257 km en las últimas… adivinad… (silencio)… la autonomía real apenas superaba la mitad… GM recompro todas las unidades y las destruyó. GM dijo que “había matado” al coche eléctrico… ya veis que no. 7. Hummer H2 (2002). Un derivado civilizado del primigenio H1 pensado para el ejército. Pero poco civilizado. A pesar de su enorme tamaño no tenía buena habitabilidad, era enorme, pesado, corría poco y gastaba mucho. Como leí en un diario norteamericano: “Quién compró uno, acabo odiándolo”. 8. Nissan Cube (1998). Como me dijo un periodista británico amigo mío cuando lo probó: “Es odioso. No me gusta como va. Y es horrible. Llevaba gorra y capucha cuando lo conducía no fuera que alguien me reconociese…” Nada más que añadir. 9. Nissan Murano Cross Convertible (2011). Sinceramente… mirad este coche… ¿es feo o no es feo? Sinceramente, más que feo es como desproporcionado. ¡A quién narices se le ocurrió la “brillante”, con muchas comillas, idea, de hacer un SUV descapotable! 10. Perodua Myvi (2005). Os he traído esta rareza fabricada en Malaysia… que intentaron vender fuera de su país a precios muy ventajosos. Lo que pasa es que el coche, no lo puedo decir de otra manera, era malo con ganas, ni corría, ni era agradable de conducir ni cumplía unos mínimos de seguridad. Los compradores, al poco de comprarlo, lo odiaban e intentaban venderlos… pero no los quería nadie… y lo odiaban más. 11. Pontiac Aztek (2001). Este coche es un “fijo” en las listas de coches feos y-o malos, que no son adjetivos excluyentes. Lo cierto es que de algún modo consiguieron su objetivo. 12. Range Rover Evoque Cabrio (2016). Alguien en Range tuvo una brillante idea. Ya que Nissan ha hecho un SUV descapotable, y se ha dado un bofetón de narices, ¿Por qué no hacemos lo mismo? Lo hicieron, lanzar un SUV descapotable y darse un bofetón. 12+1. Studebaker Wagonaire (1963). En este coche cuando llovía, te mojabas, la estanqueidad del techo no es que fuese mala, era inexistente.. un desastre. Y los propietarios acabaron odiándolo, porque este problema nunca tuvo una buena solución. Conclusión. No voy a contradecir a mi querido y tristemente desaparecido amigo Ramón Roca cuando decía aquello de “todos los coches van al cielo”. Pero estos pobres tendrán que pasar por el purgatorio… ellos no tienen la culpa de ser como son…

Der Nissan Cube: ein fahrendes iPhone, eine Designikone unter dem Radar, ein rollender Jacuzzi. Wie im Whirlpool kann man sich in diesem Wagen eine ganze Getränkewahl schmecken lassen. Mit zwölf Getränkehaltern, der Ablagematte „Fluffy“ und seiner verspielten Asymmetrie ist der Wagen von innen wie von außen ein sonderbarer Zeitgenosse. Der Nissan Cube polarisiert mit seinem unkonventionellen und futuristischen Look. Wird das Hello-Kitty-Auto aus Hartplastik ein Klassiker der Zukunft oder bleibt es das vergessene hässliche Entlein? Future Classics ist der Podcast über die Automobile der Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft. Karsten Arndt, Jens Seltrecht und Frank Otero Molanes reden über die Klassiker der Mobilität. Vom Twingo bis zum Lexus LS 400, vom Nissan Patrol Gr bis zum frühen Porsche Boxster, von Benzin bis Elektroauto, wird in jeder Folge ein Fahrzeug als zukünftiger Klassiker vorgestellt, seine Entstehungsgeschichte, Technik und Design und all die unerzählten Geschichten, die diese Autos so besonders machen. Zu einem Future Classic eben. Produziert von Wake Word. Copyrights Cover: www.netcarshow.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Not symmetricalBut then nothing really is —Only in our mind* * *In this segment of UnMind we continue where we left off, discussing the all-important mentoring relationship of teachers to students, and students to teachers, particularly the asymmetrical relationship in Zen training. The success of any mentorship depends almost entirely, 100% plus, on the sincerity and intensity of the student, more so than the teacher, as illustrated by the anecdote about my friend and fellow student at ID+IIT, JJ, who had an unfortunate run-in with one of my key design mentors related in the last segment. As a teacher of design at the U of I, Chicago Circle Campus, and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, I found myself on the other side of the equation and gained even more respect for my mentors. For those design students who did not seem to benefit greatly from my tutelage, I can fault them as well as myself. My story and sticking to it, anyway.The well-known exchanges between Zen ancestors and their students, particularly those who eventually succeeded them in the lineage, are illustrative of this asymmetry. Bodhidharma, the first Zen patriarch known to history in China, for example, responded to his Chinese student and dharma heir, Huike, who complained of having a disturbed mind, by asking him to show him this mind. When Huike replied that when he looked for it he could not find it, the sage exclaimed “There I have calmed your mind!” or some such expression. These incidents are variously translated so please forgive my paraphrasing, as well as the spelling of the names. I am not a scholar. My point here is that then Huike, in a similar exchange with his future successor, Sengcan, said something similar. The eventual third patriarch in China likewise complained of being “bound” by something, and Huike asked him what was binding him. When he could not respond, Sengcan suddenly realized there was nothing binding him and was liberated.That Huike responded to his student in essentially the same way that his teacher Bodhidharma had replied to him illustrates that the teacher was not called upon to say or do something extraordinary, but instead had responded with an ordinary, mundane question. We might even conclude that Huike had merely imitated Bodhidharma's approach. I think this makes the case that what triggered the profound event of the student's transformative insight was not the skill or mystical power of the teacher, but was dependent upon the desperation of the student, combined with complete faith in the teacher.Symmetry is a principle of Design Thinking, as can be seen in the design of most modern automobiles as well as vintage wheeled vehicles, such as the chariot Buddha used as an analogy to the skandhas, or the Conestoga wagons that settled the West. The practical reasons for this are pretty obvious when considering the function of the vehicle to move straight forward or backward in as friction-free a way as possible, as well as to navigate turns. But the adherence to symmetry in design goes far beyond the practical functioning of the vehicle, into the aesthetics of its overall form and features. One of the few notable exceptions to the symmetry norm may be seen in the Nissan Cube (see photo) introduced to the American market in 2009 and discontinued in 2014. We may most usefully consider this anomaly in the context of the adage, “form follows function.”Seeing this startling design for the first time may cause whiplash as it surprises your expectations of symmetry. It features a wrap-around window on the rear and one side, which violates the usual bilateral symmetry of vehicle design. I wonder if it also created a hazard in case the vehicle rolls in a wreck, as the roof-support structure would apparently be greatly weakened by the lack of a fourth column in that corner. And that that partially explains its brief time on the market.Of course, the power drive chain and other mechanical systems that make the modern vehicle function are not symmetrical in the simple sense – one only has to look under the hood to see the asymmetrical complexity of the modern combustion engine or that of the newer electric and hybrid vehicles.The apparent bilateral symmetry of the human being and many other animals is similarly deceptive. Once the relatively symmetrical outer appearance is removed, as in surgery or an autopsy, the incredible complexity of the underlying system of nerves, glands, and organs is revealed. The skeleton and musculature largely reflect the symmetrical form of the outer appearance, and much like the drive train and wheels of the automobile, function to support the mobility and balance of the body in motion.So the appearance of bilateral symmetry in both cases is just that – appearance, another word for form.The famous formula coined by Buddha, that form (appearance) is, itself, emptiness — and vice-versa — reflects this greater reality. If we probe even further, down to the molecular and atomic levels, it becomes clear that while the constituent elements making up the appearance of symmetry of the object may themselves exhibit various kinds of internal symmetry, including radial and other three-dimensional geometries that transcend mere bilateral or mirror symmetry; there is no clear, fractal-like relationship of the micro-scale parts to the macro-scale whole. The forming processes of whatever metal, plastic, rubber, textile and other materials undergo in order to achieve the final form of the completed object obviously depend upon the properties of the materials, but their original, internal form has little to do with the final, external form. Like the fabled chariot, the whole exists only in the sum of the parts.If we deconstruct the vehicle, like the chariot, it ceases to function, or to exist, as a vehicle. Likewise, the organism, human or otherwise, does not function or exist outside the particular assembly of its parts. Zen meditation is often referred to as a process of deconstructing consciousness, or the mind itself. Realization, according to Master Dogen in Jijuyu Zammai—Self-Fulfilling Samadhi, is the manifestation of this process (emphasis mine):All this, however, does not appear within perception because it is unconstructedness in stillness; it is immediate realization.Note that the term “unconstructedness” does not even qualify as proper English; the giveaway is the red underline the word processor uses to highlight a mistake. Dogen goes on to point out that “if practice and realization were two things, as it appears to the ordinary person, each could be recognized separately. But what can be met with recognition is not realization itself because realization is not reached by a deluded mind.” This indicates that anything that can be met with recognition is, by definition, a kind of delusion. Our very recognition of something we call “symmetry” is itself delusional. Upon closer examination it falls apart, seen to be, at best, a kind of approximation. The mind continually averages out all the contrary impressions of asymmetry to focus upon and reify the notion of symmetry.The immediacy of realization the Master points to should be understood as immediate in both time and space. That is, in this “realization” what becomes real to us is not something that heretofore was distant from us and somewhere in the future, but always and ever present, and near at hand. So close as to be inaccessible to perception as such, like the water to the fish, or the air to the bird. As Dogen points out later in this same tract, even the idea of “realization” must be regarded with some circumspection:[But] the boundary of realization is not distinct. For the realization itself comes forth simultaneously with the mastery of buddha-dharma. Do not suppose that what you realize becomes your knowledge or is grasped by your consciousness. Although actualized immediately, the inconceivable may not be apparent. Its appearance is beyond your knowledge. That “the inconceivable may not be apparent” — one of my favorite Dogen lines and, I think, indicative of his sense of humor — must be one of the grand understatements of all time. How could the inconceivable in any way be apparent? This is one of the hallmarks of the asymmetrical nature of the relationship, the ability to use language but not be used by it. So to speak. o point at that which is beyond concept, let alone language. Concepts take time to form. Expressing them in language takes even longer. Using words to point at that which is beyond conception, and thus far beyond language, is difficult, but not impossible. Tozan Ryokai, credited with founding Soto Zen in China, reminds us of the inconceivable nature of Zen realization in his Ch'an poem Hokyo Zammai—Precious Mirror Samadhi, pointed to as “it” (J. inmo):Although it is not constructed it is not beyond wordsLike facing a precious mirrorForm and reflection behold each otherYou are not it but in truth it is youIt would be hard to find a more succinct and intriguing description of a symmetrical relationship than “Form and reflection behold each other.” Especially as the two elements of the sentence, “form” and “reflection,” indicating object and subject, respectively, are usually considered to be the opposite of symmetrical — comprising the material and spiritual dimensions of existence — or matter versus mind.One more visual example of the apparent symmetry versus the actual asymmetry that we normally perceive is illustrated by an exercise called “Your Original Face” from a creativity workshop we conducted at ASZC, based on Huineng's famous anecdotal koan. In the photos you see the same portrait of my face, divided down the middle axis and reconstructed to reveal the “left-face “ versus the “right-face” version of me. Looks like me, but… Note that the arched-eyebrow side in shadow connotes the evil me while the side in full light looks more like a saint. The “eyes have it” but so do the eyebrows and mouth. Problem-solving is the action-oriented modus operandi of both professional design thinking and the Zen or Buddhist worldview. Designers define problems worthy of solving, often redefining those presented by clients, for financial as well as altruistic reasons. Siddhartha Gautama clearly interpreted the cultural norms, mores and memes of his times and his particular social standing in the caste system as problematic or unsatisfactory, and went on what we might romanticize as a spiritual quest to find a solution. His findings, conclusions, and recommendations constituted the content of the First Sermon, in which he laid out the Four Noble Truths, an extremely concise and complete description of the “problem” of sentient existence, particularly for human beings, including a thoroughgoing prescription for practicing in daily life, the Noble Eightfold Path, which, crucially, emphasizes the central method by which anyone can approach and — at least in theory — solve this problem for themselves, essentially by “doing thou likewise.” Fortunately for us, he succeeded to a greater degree than most of his contemporaries. He and his followers transformed this personal experience into a socially inclusive program for like-minded people, the original Order of monks and nuns, as well as householders and leaders, in India. This is the origin of the legacy we have inherited and celebrate today. As I said in the prior segment, in both design and Zen training, relationships to your mentors become all-important, shaping your views of the profession, and the practice and meaning of meditation, respectively. This is true of Zen in particular, and probably all asymmetrical relationships in general. Where we go from here we shall see, as we say, but wherever the road takes us, it will arrive at the intersection of Zen and Design Thinking. Meanwhile keep practicing.* * *Elliston Roshi is guiding teacher of the Atlanta Soto Zen Center and abbot of the Silent Thunder Order.

Candy controversy kicks off The Carpool Podcast with Reese Eggs vs Cadbury Cream Eggs, candies that are begging to be retired, and the Peeps red dye 3 controversy. The suitcase zipped, but barely, on this *packed* episode.  Mother is today's millennial word of the day. Used as an adjective by Gen Z, Kelly will just have to live with it and love it.  Which ugly auto will win today's hate eight of ugliest cars? Up for the title are the Ford Flex, Nissan Murano convertible, Nissan Cube, classic Toyota Prius, Chrysler PT Cruiser, Honda Odyssey, Kia Soul, and Tesla cyber truck. The Ford Flex is giving fridge, at least the Honda Odyssey is functional, and the Nissan Cube holds a special place in Lizz's heart.  Stanley ice flows are (or were!) back in stock, so they're on both Kelly and Lizz's last three transactions today. Use the code CARMOM20 to grab yours if they're still available. The PT Cruiser of shoes threatened to set Kelly back $80 for spring daycare shoes, but she found knock off Crocs at TJ Maxx instead. Lizz grabbed some jammies for the babe and both gals had a grocery run — Kelly's for her pot-luck famous Costco mac-n-cheese.  On today's advice segment, Dana asks for go-to dinner ideas for guests. Kelly recommends BBQ pulled pork nachos with Sweet Baby Rays, a hot dog bar, or grilled naan bread pizzas. Lizz suggests crockpot chicken tacos. Listener Elizabeth asks how Kelly knew she wanted a third kiddo.  A listener's Honda Odyssey question spills over into industry news. Making headlines this week, Tesla workers shared very personal customer videos taken by Century mode without consent. Kia EV 9 is one of the hottest EVs of the year and one of the first mainstream three row electric SUVs. And Kelly and Lizz talk auto shows and their yearning to travel again. → To share your ditch the drive-through recipe with us, call (959) CAR-POOL and leave us a message! → Want our advice on literally anything?

The milestone 10th episode! Who would have thought we'd make it this far? In the first part of this episode, we discuss the so-called fuel shortage and how people have turned gasoline into toilet paper. Following that, we go through every single vehicle in the 2008 classic, Tropic Thunder. Sidebar, you'd be shocked how many there are. Then we move on to The News, a debate of whether the new Pacifica warrants the same hate as the original, and weird boxy crossovers. Think the likes of the Honda Element, Nissan Cube, and Scion xB. In the second half, an update on Adam's B7 RS4, and an update on Bruce's bonkers Mojave RC truck. Then the main topic for the second half - elderly drivers. A serious talk regarding the risks elderly drivers face, and whether more frequent driving tests are warranted, or if they should just be left alone. We then touch on the bane of California - a Tesla owner that has been arrested multiple times for riding in the back while the autopilot drives. Rounding out this week's episode is a few rounds of Trivia, followed by some fun True or False questions. DISCLAIMER - Yes, there is a Pacifica reference in this episode. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brokecarsnobs/message

Lara Vernon is our guest for this episode.  She is a racing driver that is rapidly moving up the ranks of amateur racing.  We have raced alongside her at our last event in Charlotte on the Roval and she just returned from winning the B class event with the true 24 hour race at CMP with the Sorry For Party team, driving in both their Firebird and 944 race cars during the race and posting the fastest laps for the weekend.  Lara also owns a boutique exotic car dealership called “Rare Exotic Vehicles” in Asheville, North Carolina, that deals with very cool vintage hot rods and cars from the 1930’s to excellent examples suitable for Radwood and other venues. You can Follow Lara’s racing exploits at @Lara.is.racing and her @rareexoticvehicles on Instagram or on Facebook.  On this episode’s Dominating with Dawson, we talk about the importance of hydration at the track and several ways to stay hydrated.  No, not that way.  At least until after the track goes cold. We hope you enjoy this episode!   Best regards, Vicki, Jennifer, Alan, and Bill Hosts of the Garage Heroes In Training Podcast and Garage Heroes In Training racing team drivers   Highlights from this episode include: 1)  Several excellent cars Lara has currently that are looking for a new home. 2)  How autocross was (again) the gateway drug towards her wheel to wheel racing.  It’s not free, but it is very good way to learn car control and is also a low cost way of getting started.  (Winning several races and a championship was also a good way to show she was on the right track) and led to Lara getting her SCCA racing license. 3)  Vicki confuses the Fiesta ST with the Fiestas that she remembered from years ago.  Bill has not done a good job of visiting car dealers with her.  This will likely be remedied shortly. 4)  How she came to first meet Ron Mexico/Jeff Caplan and then the Race Bar team.  How her first race with Race Bar went in late 2019 and then again at the Charlotte Roval a few weeks ago.  An excellent companion for getting into the wonderful abyss that is endurance racing. 5)  How Lara attempted to challenge Dick Freelane’s mustache, quite a noble but usually futile effort. 6)  We hear about her experience racing at Road Atlanta in the snow.  The track is plenty exciting without having to rely on being snow covered. 7)  Lara has pursued and succeeded in amateur racing and has begun to dip her toe into some of the higher level opportunities with teams and sponsors.  It is a challenging sport to convert to making a living, or even breaking even. 8)  Lot of stories of her racing with Race Bar and some of the shared trials and tribulations both teams had at the Roval with Lucky Dog.  9)  How Lara almost met Randy Pobst at the Charlotte Roval, how she almost raced against him, and how her Lobster faired against Randy’s Moose. 10)  We discuss how to make your own skid pad using cracked corn animal feed.  If she pulls it off, we hope we get an invite. 11)  She not only wins in “meat space” but also won a 24 hour endurance race in iRacing. 12)  The Ayrton Senna miniseries came up again in discussion.  We cannot wait for it to come out on Netflix.  If you have not seen the Ayrton Senna documentary entitles “Senna”, you are missing a great one. 13)  Vicki shows off her car skills by confusing a Kia Soul with a Nissan Cube.

Onno! Laut meinem Kalender nehmen wir jetzt eine Sendung auf. Was?! Wie hast du mich zu so etwas überredet? Ich bin weder angezogen, noch habe ich gefrühstückt! - Ein kleiner Auszug aus unserem Chat. Das solltet ihr über unseren mentalen Zustand, zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme wissen. So kommen wir gleich zum Anfang der Sendung ein wenig mit den Zeiten durcheinander und versuchen über die doch recht übersichtliche Nachrichtenlage zu schauen. Zum Thema fällt uns natürlich auch nicht besonders viel ein, weshalb wir relativ schnell anfangen aus dem Nähkästchen zu plaudern und von Motoren auf Prüfständen reden. Und wo wir schon einmal da sind, unterhalten wir uns darüber, welcher Motor am besten klingt. Auf den Aktienmärkten hat sich auch nicht besonders viel getan, was in erster Linie daran liegt, dass wir doch recht kurz nach der letzten Aufnahme, wieder aufgenommen haben.   Shownotes: BMW und Daimler planen gemeinsames Carsharing - Elon Musk macht weiter - Tollcollect - VW macht sich zum Affen - VW Manager klagt gegen Kündigung - Alfa Romeo Alfasud - Bremsen fetten - Qualitätskontrolle beim Tabbi - BMW F1 Turbo Motoren - Mazda 767B  - Nissan Cube

http://shadowfoot.com/podcasts/BJar_090704_Episode_2.mp3My second podcast episode. This time I've skipped the sound effects between segments. If you can, please suggest intro and outro music, and segment music, that fits the style of this show. It will need to be podsafe music. Note: Yes, I said "para-praised" instead of "paraphrased". Oops, my bad. I also say "...and that" too much. Show Notes Janus Bakery, serving wonderful baked goods and Revive coffee. Net at Night, with Amber MacArthur, Leo Laporte, and Sarah Lane, is a podcast I regularly listen to. It is a weekly podcast usually just over an hour in duration. The topics are current technology events. Nissan Cube - The ugly car inspired by a jacuzzi and driven by annoying people. Beyond Bullet Points by Cliff Atkinson, is the book I've just finished reading. I recommend it for anyone who wants to improve their PowerPoint (and Keynote).
