Today, we have Micah McMahan from  3MI Racing LLC. Micah has a storied history, including going across the pond to work for Oracle Red Bull Racing (Yes, that Red Bull Racing) as a powertrain team lead. He has also worked for  Roush Yates Engines, so to say the least, he is experienced in powertrains. In this episode, we explore all things to do with an engine and some of the internal testing/working in F1 powertrains. Why do people skimp out on their cooling system? What else cools your engine besides coolant? We also talk about materials and their properties for engines.

Today, we are joined by Feras Qartoumy. Arguably, it is the fastest Corvette in the world, but let’s settle on North America for now. Feras, let’s dive into what made him choose the Corvette over his sick Nova—another racer with a drag racing background. Feras shares the background information on how the car got to Australia for World Time Attack. He also shares his first-hand account of driving at Sidney Motorsports Park. Going into a blind turn at well over 160mph is a game-changer. Feras talks about some of his upcoming events, including Tsukuba. This is a great one to get some insight into one of the fastest-time attack cars in the world. feras's Socials

On this week's podcast, we have a chat with Jason Kanakry. Jason talks about his history in racing, where he can't seem to stop blowing up cars, from Ford Taurus SHOs to McLarens. No vehicle appears to be safe. Jason also sheds some light on his adventures in his 720s. From cruising in Mexico at triple-digit speeds to watching his 720s drift away on a trailer with no tow vehicle attached. This man has been through it all! He also shed some light on what he does for a living, hinting that he ensures you don't get radiation poison from things like your phone. Mike nerds out about some of the incredible uses for carbon, and you won't believe how much an OEM crate 720s engine costs. Another E9x GLTC mate as well.

In this podcast episode, Mike delves into his professional history, focusing on his experience in the realm of steering systems. We explore the essential elements that contribute to an exceptional steering system and challenge the notion that assessing a system's quality solely based on its "feel" is flawed. Additionally, we discuss the unique aspects of tuning a steering system compared to the more familiar process of tuning an ECU. Buckle up, as today's episode promises to dive deeply into technical details. On a different note, Hayden showcases his expertise by unveiling a new design for the MK1 GTI, aiming to extract an additional 6hp—a significant 10% boost from the factory horsepower.

Join Mike, Devin, and Dan as we talk to Grant Davidson about how he started racing. We find out that he was a natural from the get-go, which seems to be something that more than one person on the podcast shares. Grant won Gridlifes Club TR (Track Rat) class last year. Let's talk about what else he has in store for 2023. Don't forget to leave us a five-star rating and leave a review about how amazing Popeyes is!

Join Mike, Devin, and Dan as they review the new Gridlife Trackbattle format after its initial release. We also want to know what makes an expert an expert. What else do we need to make for you all? The real question we need to know is whether we would make the podcast live on YouTube or Discord. We generally talk about cars and racing and hang out on this one.
