From hauling two GT-Rs over 1,500 miles in a stacker trailer to navigating one of the biggest JDM gatherings in the country, we break down the entire experience—the wins, the challenges, and everything in between. A major highlight of the weekend was watching our friend Marq "Squirk" Drenon officially launch Roll Forged Wheels.

We also dive into the incredible Nashville car community, the packed pre-meets, drifting, vendor displays, and why Import Alliance continues to be one of the best enthusiast events in the country. We also share stories from the road, lessons learned towing a 74-foot RV and stacker setup, visiting some of our favorite Nashville shops and attractions, and catching up with many of the friends and guests we've met through the podcast over the years.

rWotD Episode 3360: L'anneau de vitesse Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Thursday, 16 July 2026, is L'anneau de vitesse.L'anneau de vitesse (French for 'speed oval') is an outdoor sports venue in Albertville, France. It hosted speed skating events at the 1992 Winter Olympics.The stands, which remain present, were constructed as an airfoil from aerospace designs. The ice was made using 70 km (43 mi) of piping using R32 and brine refrigeration to cool the track to between −5 and −8 °C (23 and 18 °F) with 4 cm-thick (1.6 in) ice. Before this the surface was covered with 1.20 m (3 ft 11 in) of base sand in order to lay down the piping.The track serves nowadays as a multipurpose stadium used for athletics and football events.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:08 UTC on Thursday, 16 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see L'anneau de vitesse on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Alan and Lupe from the J Spek Projekt to talk about the powerful connection between military service, brotherhood, and the JDM community. What started as a shared passion for Japanese cars has grown into something much bigger—a network of veterans and enthusiasts using cars as a way to reconnect, heal, and support one another. We hear how both Alan and Lupe found their way into the automotive world, from deployments overseas and discovering Japanese car culture to building some of the cleanest, most well-known project cars in the community. They share the story behind the J Spec Project, the idea of "Boost Therapy," and how a simple cruise with friends can be just as valuable as any formal therapy session. The conversation also dives into the changing car scenes across the country, from Florida to Utah and Oklahoma, the friendships built through JDM culture, and why preserving the sense of community is just as important as building the cars themselves. Whether you're a veteran, an enthusiast, or both, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best therapy is a full tank of gas, a winding road, and good people beside you.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we tackle a topic that's been at the heart of car culture for decades — exhaust systems. From the early days of bolt-on mufflers, Pep Boys fart cans, and local muffler shop specials to today's high-end titanium systems, we discuss how exhausts have shaped the way we experience cars. We dive into the iconic exhaust brands that defined generations of enthusiasts, debate canisters versus oval mufflers, and share our thoughts on what makes an exhaust truly great. Along the way, we discuss everything from old-school HKS systems and Mugen classics to modern handcrafted titanium setups and the differences between mass-produced and custom-built exhausts. Of course, we also get into the age-old question: Is an exhaust about performance, sound, appearance, or all three? We share stories from our own builds, compare some of our favorite systems, and talk about why the sound of a car can be just as important as the horsepower it makes. Find us on Facebook groups - RHDGUYS-JDMBOYSSocials - @RHDGUYS Merch - http://RHDGUYS.COMWant a discount on Nissan parts?Use code "RHDGUYS" athttps://nizmopartsplug.comNeed An ECU?

Nicht wenige Autokenner halten ihn für den besten Golf aller Zeiten. Denn die vierte Generation des Wolfsburger Klassensprechers war die erste, die unter der Regie von Qualitäts-Fanatiker Ferdinand Piëch entstand. Auch das kompakte Lieblingsauto der Deutschen sollte sich jetzt nach Premiumklasse anfühlen. Und auch mit der grafischen Klarheit seines Designs setzte der Golf IV neue Maßstäbe. Er ist das Auto, mit dem der TDI-Motor fast unschlagbar wurde. Der Extrem-Golf, den es auch als V5 und R32 gab. Heute wird er allmählich rar. Manche Modellversionen sind fast ausgestorben. Aber welche von ihnen werden echte Klassiker? Mit dieser Frage beschäftigen sich in dieser Folge Jens Seltrecht, Frank Otero Molanes und Christian Steiger.Executive Producer: Christoph Falke & Ruben Schulze-FröhlichProjektleitung: Lukas HambrechtSounddesign & Produktion: Philipp KlauerMarketing und Ansprechpartner: Bastian SchonauerCopyrights Cover: www.oldtimer-markt.de Hosted on Acast.
