In this episode, we dive into the latest Formula One drama—Ferrari is doing what Ferrari does best: blowing it.We also talk about the absurd food prices at ski resorts, the wild Porsche condo tower in Miami, and the Martini-liveried Porsche 944 that drove past us (potentially carrying Dog the Bounty Hunter).Plus, we debate the worst Porsche we'd dare take to a Porsche Club of America meeting, Hunter sells his Audi SQ5 (what's next?), and we discuss why muscle cars just don't do it for us. Oh, and our friend totally bought an expensive watch but won't admit it.#Formula1 #FerrariFails #PorscheClub #Porsche944 #SkiResortPrices #MuscleCarDebate #AudiSQ5 #CarEnthusiast #LuxuryCars #F1News

The 1895 Horseless Carriage Contest sponsored by the Chicago Times-Herald (aka "first" auto-race in America) - a peek into the WHAT, WHY. WHEN. WHERE, WHO beyond the auto history lore of a Duryea victory on a cold and snowy, Thanksgiving Day in Chicago. David Schmidt is a Director at the Society of Automotive Historians (SAH) as well as Panel Chair for the SAH Bradley Award. He is also a member of the Porsche Club of America and Fuelfed, a private club for enthusiasts of European cars. Born in Detroit, his father and grandfather both worked for GM at Fisher Body. Being a product of a certain generation he experienced the muscle car era first hand cruising the famed Woodward Avenue in the late 1960's. David received a BA from Michigan State University, MA and PhD from Indiana University and after a career in financial services retired from TIAA. As an auto enthusiast, he can be seen driving about town in a 1967 Volvo Amazon or 1989 Porsche Carrera. The importance of this event is perhaps best captured that same year by Peter Studebaker of the eponymous wagon maker who, with prescience, commended the sponsoring newspaper “... for transferring the manufacture of the motocycle (a term applied to the horseless carriage after a naming contest) concentrating the inventive faculties of the nation on this [horseless carriage] new departure.” ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Introduction and Sponsors 00:16 The 1895 Horseless Carriage Contest Overview 00:37 Presenter Background: David Schmidt 01:21 Significance of the 1895 Race 02:53 Race Day Preparations and Challenges 07:10 The Thanksgiving Day Race 08:44 Post-Race Analysis and Awards 10:07 Impact and Legacy of the 1895 Race 10:43 Why the 1895 Race Was Held 11:29 The Role of the Chicago Times Herald 14:56 Rescheduling and Final Preparations 16:08 The Birth of American Auto Racing 16:28 Why Chicago? 18:18 The Bicycle Craze and Its Influence 19:44 Chicago: The Transportation Hub 20:30 Unsung Heroes of the Horseless Carriage 21:18 The Tragic Tale of Hieronymus Muller 22:06 Charles B.

Dr. James Miller has a longtime interest in media technology, and this led him to the historical study of the automobile as an under-appreciated site of media consumption. From there, the highly digitalized modern race car presented itself as a possible precursor of future mobility. This was also an excuse to intellectualize the pleasure of motorsports, which has resulted in a connection with the IMRRC and membership in the International Motor Press Association. Miller is professor emeritus of communications at Hampshire College, a former member of the graduate faculty at UMass Amherst and a member of the Porsche Club of America. Formula One raced at Watkins Glen for 20 years, 1961-1980. This was a still early time in post-war F1, when nearly everything was smaller scale, sponsorship was just beginning, a DIY ethos ruled the paddock and US media attention was limited. Yet these 20 years mark a crucial midway point between the Glen's original road racing and the modern, corporatized F1 that has now developed into a global media spectacle. To mark 75 years of Watkins Glen motorsports, this presentation offers a sketch of this distinctive time and place, with emphasis on the local community engagement that made those glorious 20 years of F1 possible. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Introduction and Sponsors 00:58 The Early Days of Formula One at Watkins Glen 01:48 Community Involvement and Economic Impact 02:41 Historical Study and Key Observations 05:33 The Circus Era: A Cultural Context 07:57 Watkins Glen: A Unique Racing Venue 08:57 The Founders and Key Figures 11:11 The Teams and Their Principals 12:41 Challenges and Triumphs of Team Ownership 14:00 Jackie Stewart: A Champion's Journey 14:55 The Unsung Heroes: F1 Mechanics 15:52 Watkins Glen: A Beloved Racing Venue 17:08 Local Involvement and Community Spirit 18:05 The Watkins Glen Effect and Future of Racing 18:59 Preserving Racing Heritage 20:33 The Impact of Bernie Ecclestone 21:39 Summer Jam and Music Festivals 23:23 Conclusion and Reflections ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/ Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ This episode is part of our HISTORY OF MOTORSPORTS SERIES and is sponsored in part by: The International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), The Society of Automotive Historians (SAH), The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Argetsinger Family - and was recorded in front of a live studio audience.

I just returned from a magical week on the rivers of Germany as a guest of Transcend Cruises. Our stops and excursions included: Koblenz, Cochem, Boppard, Rudesheim, Heidelberg, Speyer, Wiesbaden, Wurzburg and Frankfurt. And I loved every second. As for Transcend, it's a charter-only river cruise line with a fleet of its own purpose-built vessels. The company offers truly customized river cruise journeys with tailor-made itineraries and experiences for any kind of group. So for example, you can hold a destination wedding, or a corporate retreat, or celebrate a milestone birthday with family and friends, or really just about anything! On my sailing, the ship was chartered by the Porsche Club of North America with tailored experiences for car enthusiasts. And of course, there were plenty of cultural options to enjoy for the likes of yours truly. The ship I was on was the Advance and was 5 stars all the way – from the suite to the dining to the staff. Frankly, I didn't want to leave! For more on Transcend, visit: https://www.transcend.cruises/ or tune in to episode 301 of  The One Way Ticket Show where our guest was Matthew Shollar, Founder & Chief Visionary of Transcend Cruises. While on board, I had the chance to sit down and chat with the ship's Captain Rob Jager, Head Chef Mihai Tuca, and Transcend's General Manager, Carmen Mladenovic. You can listen to each of those conversations here on The One Way Ticket Show.  On this episode, we're featuring our conversation with Carmen. We cover the enchanting stops we made on our journey, the allure of river cruising, what makes Transcend's offering so unique, plus, it being the one way ticket show, of course I asked Carmen where she'd go on her one way ticket journey of choice (if you're new to the show, that's the premise of the podcast). Enjoy!

It's the middle of the week and we're excited for another amazing day in the auto industry. Today we're talking about how Stellantis replaced their North American president, Hyundai's new steering rig and Porsche's awkward typo.Stellantis announces a major shift in its North American operations, replacing COO Mark Stewart with Carlos Zarlenga, the current president of its Mexico unit.Zarlenga, with a decade of global automotive experience, including a role as president of General Motors South America, is set to take over on Feb. 1.Stewart's departure follows a challenging year for Stellantis in the U.S. market, marked by a 1.2 percent decline in sales and a costly labor agreement with the UAW.The change comes as Stellantis gears up to launch its first electric vehicles in North America, aiming to revitalize its brands like Dodge, Jeep, and Ram in the competitive EV space.Carlos Tavares, CEO of Stellantis, praised Zarlenga's leadership skills: "Carlos Zarlenga is the best leader... to drive the change in our business model towards electrification in the region."From the ASOTU Daily Pushback Email: Most great features have limitless applications; Hyundai's Ioniq 5 has a new steering feature that seems to have a very limited number of applications. The e-Corner System turns the wheels of the EV sideways, allowing it to spin in place, perform a semi-drift maneuver, parallel park, or, maybe most importantly, escape a tight parallel park situation. The Steer-by-Wire system means each of the vehicle's four wheels is independently controlled by electronic motors, which is pretty much restricted to EV-only use.Hyundai Mobis says it is adding more cameras, sensors, and projectors in cars with the feature for safety needs.They say the system is not designed for high-speed driving and has only been tested up to 50 MPH.The feature is expected to start rolling out in 2026.A Porsche Club of America member in Houston spotted a humorous typo in the Porsche 911's driver display, where "brake pads" are misspelled as "break pads."The error was discovered following a request for brake pad recommendations on a Texas PCA Facebook group, after the owner participated in a High Performance Driver Education course.The dashboard warning reads, "BRAKE WEAR: Brake pads worn....Change break pads...Driving permitted," ironically spelling 'brake' correctly in other instances.This minor gaffe on a high-end sports car, priced at around $115,000, highlights the importance of attention to detail, even in premium products.It's unknown if this typo is exclusive to the 911 or affects other Porsche models, but it's likely a simple software update could rectify the error.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion
