It's another “No Dumb Questions!” You email to ask, we sit down to answer. There are no dumb questions in racing … but there might be some dumb answers.Topics this week: What are the three most important things a beginning track-day driver should focus on? Is it possible to give yourself extra mental bandwidth while driving at speed? And how do you pull feedback from a car—an EV, for example—that seemingly doesn't have much to say?This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. For this episode, we're borrowing the No Dumb Questions framework from Ross's old “Speed Secrets” podcast. ***Want more NDQ? Hit up INTC's monthly bonus episodes on Patreon!

Valanciunas ready to come to Denver? No Dumb Questions
0:00 - We keep talking about IF Valanciunas wants to play for the Nuggets this, IF he wants to play for the Nuggets that...but ultimately, the Nuggets can force him to play no matter what. They have his contract. Signed, sealed, delivered. 14:59 - Former NHLer Nick Tarnasky got into an epic fight on the golf course and even added sound effects to his own punches in real time.34:28 - No Dumb Questions: how loud can you be in a gym? Are you allowed to fart on an airplane?
0:00 - Valanciunas finally addressed the Nuggets situation at a basketball conference in Lithuania. Maybe it's the language barrier's fault but his comments created more confusion than clarity. 16:36 - The Avalanche hired Dave Hakstol as an assistant coach, ostensibly to take over power play responsibilities. He also was the first head coach of the Seattle Kraken, aka the coach that beat the Avs in the first round back in 2023...37:47 - No Dumb Questions! Let's dig deep into the cycling world and the Tour de France...or Tour de FRAHNCE if you're DMac.
0:00 - Warren Schaeffer is capable of giving his players...actual real constructive criticism after a game? Huh...we don't remember that from the Bud Black days.18:19 - DMac expresses more anger towards fireworks guy. Then, speaking of anger, what's the general feeling surrounding the Valanciunas situation? Are we mad at him? Should we be?37:11 - The only dumb question is the one you don't ask. It's time for No Dumb Questions.
It's another “No Dumb Questions!” You email to ask, we sit down to answer. There are no dumb questions in racing … but there might be some dumb answers.In this episode, we take questions from only one listener.Spoiler: That listener is Sam!This was supposed to be a fun little exercise where Sam asked Ross and Jeff random racing questions. Then Sam got a “rager” (his word) case of Covid and was barely able to talk. So he asked Ross and Jeff to read his questions aloud and spent most of the ep quiet.(Except for when he squeaked the squeaker of a little toy bear he borrowed from his daughter. As a sign of approval, or something? Because a Smith man cannot ever shut up, apparently, even when physically incapable of speech.)This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. For this episode, we're borrowing the "No Dumb Questions" framework from Ross's old “Speed Secrets” podcast.RELATED TRIVIA: This show was taped a few weeks ago—today, Sam is once again healthy. The bear, however, suffered permanent emotional damage and will never recover.This episode was produced by Mike Perlman.**Who We Are + Spicy Merch:www.ItsNotTheCar.com**Support It's Not the Car:Contribute on Patreon www.patreon.com/notthecar**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?
