This week Matt and I are joined in the studio once again by friend of TST Rick Radcliffe. We start off with an off topic conversation on watches specifically Matt's new GuardsRed watch and my new Apple Watch. From there we cover Rick's cross country trip in the million mile Lexus and its likely former life as a roaming Floridian bass and ecstasy dispensary. From there all three of us discuss the various states of disuse and/or repair of our Corvettes and we wrap up with Matt's review of the Dinan BMW M4 and the 034 Motorsport TT RS.

Rally North America (yes, still on the road)

Once again the guys have sent me another remote recording from a hotel for editing and ultimatale your listening pleasure. This time they're talking with Tony and Scott of Rally North America. Up first is a brief discussion on why Cobras and Slingshots are a bad choice for a rally, followed thereafter by mild offroading in a Corvette, the proliferation of the Confederate flag, a wavering Alfa Romeo 4C and of course the charity behind Rally North America; Hope for the Warriors.   Want your question answered?

This week Matt and I made our way north to Adam Carolla's studios in Burbank for a Forza Motorsport 6 preview with some hands-on time with the new game. We sit down with friend of the show Dan Greenawalt (creative director of Turn 10 studios) and talk about the new game and as a bonus Carcast's own Matt D'Andria joins us for the discussion. In addition to Forza 6 we've got a fresh clip of the new Mustang GT350R that gives a much better impression of the final product and we get face time with the Focus RS and new Ford GT.
