We talk about his latest track day, the new tires he's running, using 95-octane fuel, and whether those changes helped him set a new personal best. We also get into bracket racing, track day frustrations, and what it's really like chasing faster times in a daily-driven performance car.
Along the way, we go down a few rabbit holes discussing crazy gas and diesel prices, red dye diesel, construction equipment fuel costs, drones, GoPros, content creation, YouTube algorithms, and even the insane maintenance costs of owning a Bugatti.
If you're into performance cars, track days, car culture, or just enjoy hanging out and talking cars, you'll feel right at home here.
