Ever wondered about the untold stories behind some of the most revolutionary race cars in history? In our latest episode of the In Wheel Time show, we tackle technical glitches while attempting to connect with George Levy, the author of "Jim Hall and His Chaparrals." Despite the hurdles, we manage to share captivating details about Jim Hall, the Texas racer who transformed motor racing with his innovative Chaparral cars. Join us as we discuss the significance of Levy’s new book and its upcoming launch event at the Permian Basin Petroleum Museum in Midland, Texas, offering a sneak peek into the fascinating world of Chaparral.
We delve into the legacy of Jim Hall and his groundbreaking contributions, like the introduction of downforce that reshaped car design and performance forever. Our conversation takes you through Jim's partnerships with legends such as Carroll Shelby, and his connections with racing giants like Jackie Stewart and Roger Penske. Additionally, we reminisce about the unique Chaparral-style car sponsored by Prince's Hamburgers and share insights into the annual Chaparral gathering in Midland, Texas—a true celebration of innovation and racing history.
But that's not all! Ever noticed those tiny black dots on windshields? We reveal their purpose and delve into a comprehensive list of recent vehicle recalls from major manufacturers, highlighting safety issues that every driver should be aware of. Plus, we give a shout-out to the expansion of Lupe' Tortilla restaurants, known for their exceptional Tex-Mex cuisine. Tune in to hear about their new locations and our invitation for you to join us live every Saturday morning.
