We're going back to 1999 at the Vancouver street race dominated by Juan Montoya in his Chip Ganassi Racing Reynard-Honda where incredible sounds from the 2.65-liter turbocharged V8s produced by Ford-Cosworth, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, and those mighty Hondas. These mythical 1000hp motors propelled our heroes of the day--Dario Franchitti, Greg Moore, Paul Tracy, Al Unser Jr, Jimmy Vasser, Michael Andretti, Gil de Ferran, Helio Castroneves--and so many more who made the CART IndyCar Series the most incredible open-wheel show in the world.

Transport yourself back to IMSA's 1992 season finale on the cramped Del Mar street course, run next to the San Diego-area horse racing circuit, where some of the fastest most famous GTP cars did battle to close the year. Thanks to the ambient audio captured by our friend Brad Bernstein, we get to hear the All American Racers' Eagle Mk IIIs, Mazda RX-792Ps, Chevy Intrepids, Nissan NPT-91s, the iconic Formula 1-engined Jaguar XJR-14, and a bevy of GTP Lights cars representing Acura and Buick wind around the narrow 1.6-mile Del Mar track.
AAR's P.J. Jones was victorious at the October 11 race, followed by Geoff Brabham in his NPTI Nissan and Davy Jones in the TWR USA Jaguar.

February 3, 2020
John Andretti's visit to The Week In IndyCar show in January of 2018, not long after his colon cancer diagnosis was revealed, was my favorite episode back then and remains so today. After listening to the listener-driven interview after his loss on January 30, 2020, I wanted to take another shot at editing the episode to fix some technical glitches and to trim the show down to the best parts where John spoke on his amazing, multi-faceted career.
Please enjoy the warmth, talent, and humility that endeared Andretti to so many, starting with:
