Teamclearcoat - An Automotive Enthusiast Podcast By Two Car Nerds

Well now, who is the sleepy one in this episode? Trick question, it's actually both of us! At least Ian can justify his exhaustion, so he tells us the tale of his most recent camping experience. We love you!

Big yikes coming out of the midwest in this episode. Sorry dear listeners for inflicting these vanity plates upon you. You didn't do anything to deserve being hit with these monstrosities, but now we can all share the burden together. We love you, and we love everyone, except for you IL DMV, you know what you did.

On this week's show we're honored to have Ryan West join us! He talks to us about providing race commentary for the World Racing League and how he approaches creating voice-over commentary for endurance racing. Thank you everyone for tuning it, we love you!

In this episode Dave lets Ian down gently as he gives him some bad news about their recent joint autocross outing. Also, we learn what Ian's last words will probably be so...please do as we say and not as Ian does. We love you!

In this week's episode Ian discusses his super secret and well-hydrated way to get fast times at the kart track. We also talk about our upcoming joint autocross venture and what it's like to be a dad. Spoiler alert, it's wet. All the time. We love you!

We've suspected it for a while, but in this episode Ian finally confirms his Miata Boi status! We talk about Ian's experience driving a race-prepped Miata with the MiElan Champcar racing team and some of the non-Miata vehicles he's been driving as well. We love you!

Head injuries, shower thoughts, obscene license plates, oh my! We fill out this episode with some pretty far reaching topics in the triumphant return of what is certainly the most moist automotive podcast segment in the known universe. Maybe someone should check on Dave. We love you!

In this episode Dave takes Ian on a (thankfully not Dodge) journey of a baby blue CRV's very interesting sticker collection. Sometimes you just gotta accept that you have more questions than answers, folks. We love you!

The new Toyota Prius slaps. That's it. That's the show everybody! Oh, okay, fine, hang around and listen to us blather on and on as we tell tales of taking down supercars in Toyota's latest hybrid commuter appliance. We love the Prius, but most importantly, we love you!

We're lucky to have Ian with us this week, given his um, very educational camping excursion. Beyond that, we dive in to a much more pleasant topic, our time with the new Toyota Crown! Oh, and we talk about another car too...we just didn't like it as much. We love you!!!

Once you get past Ian's new nipple-based car grill height measuring system, we get to some real car chit chat. For real! We've driven two fantastic new cars and had time to reflect on the experience. So join us for a chat about the 2023 Acura Integra Type S and the 2023 Lexus IS 500!

This is a fun one! Ian has gotten himself a bit of Northern Exposure and gives us the breakdown in our sub-cast Orca Boiz. While we're off topic, Dave wants to somehow compare the two Mercedez-Benz automobiles that we have driven to recent music festival happenings. Yep. We love you!

Ian and Dave, reporting in from the field! Sorry about the spotty audio, it was a bit wild. In this episode we're coming straight out of the Goopy all electric and eye-waterlingly expensive Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 4MATIC SUV. And what a ride it was. Remember, we may feel a different way about this car, but we love you.

This episode has EVERYTHING. RVs. Listener MyEyes. Conversion vans riddled with vintage STDs. HOLE GUESSING. Like we said, everything. We love you!

The tables have turned this week and now our resident ginger is all up in arms over Apple's new Vision Pro headset while the normally agitated Ian is actually in a chipper mood given the fact he and his race team turned laps at a race without catching on fire! We love you everyone!

Of all things to make Ian not give an eff, it's really odd that his most recent rental car inspired such a snoozefest. Besides Ian being bored, we stumble across the best vanity plate this side of GUNCLES. We love you everyone!

We are absolutely thrilled to have the one and only Matt Farah join us for our 400th Episode! You know Matt. He does all the car things. He does all the things other than cars. He's the best, we had a blast talking to him, and we know you'll enjoy listening along with us. We love you!

In this week's epsiode a very hangry Ian tells us the shocking tale of his most recent rental car encounter and Dave gives us the update on his Abarth. We love you!

Wow, this is a wild episode. From our tiny wiener food truck offering to Ian being a narc, we cover some BASES. We love you everyone!

When rubber meets the road good things can happen. When a human meets the road the outcome is quite different. Have a seat and join us as we tell our tales of pavement interfacing encounters. We love you!
