TST Podcast #61, with the Zero F*cks RX-7′s master, Corbin Goodwin

This is Corbin Goodwin, the boy wonder that built the now-legendary RX-7 rat rod. Matt drove it on /TUNED, and the response to the video was that of Bieber getting caught exiting his 458 with no panties on. Explosive. Viral. Celebrated. People loved the car, and the attitude behind its creator. This car is as interesting to drive as it looks. For example, in the picture above, Corbin is describing how his car sometimes gets starved for fuel in left-hand turns. The gas gauge is an ohms reader, the engagement point of the clutch is literally 1 inch, and there’s play in the steering wheel.

And now we get to talk about how this car came to be, Corbin’s past cars (it’s a long list that anyone would be pretty jealous of), and what his next project is. This was a great episode with a great guest, and we’re so amped to see how Corbin’s next project goes.
