'25 Aston Vanquish Review; Kart Drifting; Matt's Law

We went go-kart drifting and wowzers did it surprise us; Matt makes a new law; the 2025 Aston Martin Vanquish is fast and expensive but is it too limited? and we answer Patreon questions including:

  • Can you drive on tires that are older than 5 years?
  • How would we fix GM?
  • Would we ever get a Neuralink implant?
  • Track car dream: Dark Horse R vs Cayman Clubsport?
  • Why shouldn't I put a parking lift in my garage?
  • $30k sports car for rough roads and occasional track us
  • Top bucket list activity?
  • Why Matt hates the band P.O.T.U.S.
  • 996 base or BRZ tS?
  • Best car to use for a Rendezvous remake?
  • And more!
