This week we're joined by John Bothwell Commercial Director of Pur Sang Automotive of Argentina. Pur Sang builds what are referred to as "continuation cars" which basically amount to exact recreations of classic cars built entirely by hand. Some might dismiss Pur Sangs Bugattis as kit cars but you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between an original factory Bugatti and a Pur Sang continuation built in exactly the same manner as the original. We spend a lot of time talking classic Bugattis, middle-eastern extravagance, manufacturing and the quirks of doing business in Argentina. Want your question answered?

Rain drifting, weird speed limits, no cops, and a ride in something too fast for the WRC. This is the podcast from TST's New Zealand Adventure. The Smoking Tire podcasts on the last night of their New Zealand trip. Our guests are Andrew Lamb and Caswal Parker, the founders of the game Automation, which lets you design cars and engines and then test them on the track and on the market. They thought TST should see what cars Kiwis make, so they paid our airfare and brought us to the island of GT-Rs, cheap Evos, and incredible DIY race cars, to show us why this country's car culture could be the best.

We of course talk about Bucky's impressive career as a pro skater with too many medal finishes to count but we really dig into his current focus in the rally world. Bucky now drives for Subaru and has become a very accomplshed driver steadily climbing the ranks of the rally scene and even stealing the occassional win in other formats. We also get into Bucky's love of Porsches, Zack's run in with Google employees, an alphabet soup of BMWs and Pikes Peak vs Mt. Washington. Want your question answered?

Back in August of 2013 we recorded a podcast immediately upon returning from filming All Cars Go To Heaven. This podcast is very much the companion piece to the film as Thad, Matt and Zack recount the trip to Nino and myself.

Hood and Mt. Saint Helens in the depths of Washington state. Want your question answered? Want to watch the live stream, get ad-free podcasts, or exclusive podcasts?
