Chasing Legends: Unveiling the Enigmatic Racing Career of Jackie ICKX with Author John Saltinstall
Have you ever wondered what it's like to document the life of a legendary race car driver who refuses to write an autobiography? Meet John Saltinstall, author of "Jackie ICKX: An Authorized Competition History," who joins us to discuss Jackie ICKX's incredible racing career, including his six Le Mans wins. John reveals how Jackie ICKX's well-developed sense of his own importance or rather his unimportance has shaped his life story and why he chose to avoid writing an autobiography or biography, resulting in John's unique authorized competition history. We also explore Jackie's adventurous spirit, like his rock climbing adventure with Thomas Bupendorfer.  But there's more to John and Jackie's stories than just racing. John shares his own story in writing the book, his full-time job in the finance industry, and his passion for writing about automotive interests. Don't miss out on this conversation and find out where you can get your hands on John's hardback book to uncover the fascinating story of the legendary Jackie ICKX.All this and more on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk.---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?

Evolving Piston Technology, Engine Safety, and Tesla's Expanding Network
On this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk, we look at piston technology and how it has evolved over the years, from compression ratios in the 50s and 60s to modern ratios as high as 18 to one. We look at the flat top piston, the hemi piston, the wedge engine, and the notched piston.  We learn about the innovative gasoline direct injected engines that use a powerball of air and fuel to push the piston down.We also look into the incredible advancements in engine and vehicle safety, such as Honda's radical racing motorcycle engine with an oval-shaped piston that was later outlawed in competition.  In our look at how compression ratios have changed over the years, we look at the development of air pumps, catalytic converters, and oxygen sensors that were developed to reduce emissions. We also talk briefly about the Tesla agreement with Ford to provide access to the Tesla Supercharger network, which should encourage more EV development and acceptance by consumers.All of this and more on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk!  Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcast provider or simply go to InWheelCarTalk.com.---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?

A look at Formula 1 Technology with Steven Rendle and time for 'Konrad's Car Clinic'.
Formula 1 racing is a very high-end and expensive endeavor.  The cars are considered things of beauty and engineering marvels.  Currently, all F1 cars run the same motor - a V6 capable of 850 horsepower at 16,000 rpm!They may not be the absolute fastest, but add in the cornering ability and braking that can create enough g-force to hurt a driver, and they become automotive marvels.Author Steve Rendle joins us from the UK to talk about his book on the technology that goes into an F1.In our feature segment, it is Master ASE Tech Konrad DeLong with the Car Clinic and he is talking about piston rings - what they are, what they do, and how some of them work.---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?

Battery Management - the key to EV success? Metis Engineering Cell Gaurd, and how 'bout some 'Affordable '60s Muscle'...
Electric Vehicle technology is changing so fast, sometimes it is hard to keep up, particularly with the advancements in batteries.  While the batteries are a key component, we don't hear a lot about those other than what range is enabled.To make it all work, the power of the battery has to be utilized in the most efficient manner while extending it as long as possible.  However, as with most batteries, which we don't think of, there are safety considerations - voltage, heat, and even chemical production from the use of the batteries.Metis Engineering has developed a 'different' way of monitoring the health of EV batteries and Joe Holdsworth is joining us to explain why this is necessary and what their solution is.In our feature segment, Jeff Dziekan takes at look at some '60's affordable muscle'.---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?

It is a really big week for recalls across the industry, with over 2.5 million do not drive notices!  Almost the entire alphabet of makers can be found on the list.To check your vehicles, go to SaferCar.gov and put in your vin#, which can be found on your insurance card or on the dash plate of the vehicle.  We recommend doing this twice a year, as history has shown that there can be recalls on the recalls...and maybe even a recall on the recall that was recalled.In the New Car Showroom, Michael Marrs has a review of the 2023 Kia Telluride SX, a 3-row mid-size SUV with a lot of features.Sponsored by Gulf Coast Auto Shield Paint protection and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Consumer Reports adds more track and we have a review of the '23 Tacoma Trail 4x4.

Consumer Reports adds more track and we have a review of the '23 Tacoma Trail 4x4.
Long known for being a neutral 'testing' body that consumers can look to for information that is not biased by the need for direct sales, Consumer Reports takes a look at almost everything!  Refrigerators, TVs, washers, dryers and more.  A big portion of their effort goes into automobiles.Of course to properly test the modern automobile, it takes a lot of people and lot of space.  In fact the more complicated automobiles become, seems the more space is needed to test.  Back when it started, Consumer Reports bought up an old drag strip and started from there.  Recently, they actually added on to the track in a big way.  Joining us for this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk is Maddie McCarty, with Consumer Reports to let us know more about the automobile testing.In our feature segment, it is the New Car Showroom where Don Armstrong is checking out the new 2023 Toyota Tacoma - the best selling mid-size pickup.Sponsored by Gulf Coast Auto Shield Paint protection and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

A Pike's Peak Monster or what it takes to Race to the Clouds!  Time for the Car Clinic!

A Pike's Peak Monster or what it takes to Race to the Clouds! Time for the Car Clinic!
In America, road races are few and far between.  One of the 'most' famous is 'The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb' or simply Pike's Peak.  It is a race up to the top of Pikes Peak, 12.42 miles that climbs to a height of 14,115 above sea level - hence it also referred to as The Race to the Clouds.The original road, 1916, was gravel, creating a lot of exciting action.  Over the years it was paved so all events are now run on asphalt.  There are several classes, with the fastest being an open wheel category, but they are all pretty fast.Richard Tomlin, Houston Regional SCCA Executive is also part of the Safety Team for the Pikes Peak race, so he has an inside look at some of the vehicles.  While not a driver for a lot of reasons, Richard does have a car that he built for the event and he takes some time to give us a look at what it takes to build a Pikes Peak Monster.In our Feature Segment, it is Konrad's Car Clinic.All this and more on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk.Sponsored by Gulf Coast Auto Shield Paint protection and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
