Nothing against Sam or Ross, but I could listen to a whole season of Jeff stories. His Dinner with Racers appearance is one of my favorite podcasts ever. You've earned my subscription. Congrats on 1000.
I love the grayish areas of the rules. When running in NASA Performance touring with an engine swapped car, I had to submit a dyno sheet stating the maximum horsepower of my swapped engine. As it was based on horsepower to weight ratio and I felt a lighter weight would benefit my car, I had it tuned for a lower horsepower but that lowered horsepower was achieved for a broad 2500rpm range.
As it turns out the faster the engine revs up the faster it slows down when "free revving". In the real world where load is applied, like the weight of the car, going up hill and up shifting, it is in fact possible to go too light with flywheel and clutch. Flywheel, a mechanical device that uses the conservation of angular momentum to store rotational energy, a form of kinetic energy proportional to the product of its moment of inertia and the square of its rotational speed.
Rules of class. "No modification except in specification line". Specification line gives an "allowable performance parameter" that is not obtainable under base rule stock motor design . So to meet the allowable performance parameter of all vehicles is that considered an exception , and the modifications to at least meet that capability, legal? Hmmm . Told you cant modify....I argue you have written exceptions and a performance spec (compression) that is allowable. Games.....

Thank you!
Same here. I love the driving pov, but being an engineer in real life, I of course like that side of the stuff better. It's what I nerd out on.
bro i remember when i subscribed you had like 200 subscribers, and that was like a couple of weeks ago. congrats on 1k
Fantastic episode! Really enjoyed the Jeff stories.
A retracting the radio antenna on a new Corvette rented from Hertz was good for almost + 1 MPH. The flip up headlights cost 4 MPH.
Loved this episode! Would really love to hear more about when Jeff ran teams at Indy, especially with Scandia and Alboreto in 1996.

One of the most blatant (type 1) cheats was probably the Toyota Celica turbo in the early nineties.
No mention of Mark Donohue's The Unfair Advantage?
We devoted EP 9 to Mark and The Unfair Advantage! th-cam.com/video/q7zKtjP967Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5IF5wjtoHgkY3j2H
Creative engineering is never cheating...unless you get caught.
The show is MUCH better when Sam keeps his introductory remarks to just a few minutes. Please, no more half hour monologues!
