Matt calls in from the Bernardus hotel with our friend and the founder and CEO of Range Energy, Ali Javidan. Ali is an engineer and high-caliber driver, who shares with us his take on why the GT3 RS is so stiff, why adjustable dampers matter as much as springs; his experience driving in Aspen at the FAT ICE Race; how to durability test a semi-truck trailer; why batteries need to be liquid-cooled; and when to ignore rock chips.

Note: This show was recorded remotely with Matt and Ali calling into Zack at the studio. There were a lot of Wifi dropoffs and glitches but Zack did a bunch of hacking and stitching to remove those moments. As such, you might notice a few jumps and cuts. It was the best we could do.
