#Becauseracecar!  It's hillclimbing season (when isn't it?) and the PPIHC is running its chop fluey-addled rescheduled race.  It's a little weird being fan-free ('cause kung flu), but the racers are here to race - folks like Dallenbach, Vahsholtz, Zwart, Yoshihara, Donahue, Schranz and more are running everything like a carbon-fiber Z, JZ'd BR-Z, open-wheel this and 50-year old that, Camaros and Mustangs, factory Acuras, and Porsches by the pound.  Power is thick: V8s from the junkyard, blown everything, twin-turbo'd straight-six Buicks and VQs, with diesel power, ethanol power and even - heh - nine-volt power.

Jump on board - Hostus Maximus Justin Fort is trackside and grabs as much as iPhonely possible, which turns out to be tons of surprsingly good audio.  Now you go do something fast and awesome.

Don't be a Carl - or any other guy (or gal) like the ones we've all run across.  You know the type - paying more attention to the phone than the road, devicing all over the place, less there than Joe Biden, and making themselves a hazard to everyone they're in traffic with...  Distracted driving kills, and we're here to yell at you about it.  Well, we'll yell at the Carls.

There's a lot of basic math going on here - distractions cost lives, whether they're installed at the factory (then hack the crap out of your phone) or put there by ignorant drivers who'd rather pay attention to their ex-girlfriend's twits than the cars in traffic around them.  Oh, and there's also barbecue sauce.

The Gearhead Consultancy has determined that 2020-hindsight is coming to get you, too, so you may as well stock up (you prepper you). More pistols, more gun food, more practice, more burying (nothing) in the backyard, and more safety-blanket buying because it makes (panicked neophytes) feel better.  What could possibly go wrong?

At Freedom:30 for another day of gunly goodness, the Garage Hour goons were joined by Green Tip, the Derailment Monster and Thom Billpson (because Vietnam vets can kill you with their cane).

You don't crawl, carve, peel or plink your way into the dog days of summer without a little preventative maintenance (and some expensive new parts).  The Gearhead Consultancy took a few minutes to break down the cleanup of K&N (and K&N-style) gauze-based filters, including a few tricks from the diesel universe about getting your cotton (elements) their whitest.

There's more than filters in this one: tales of exploded radiators and exploding neighborhoods (stop trying to blow up your neighbors and just give the fertilizer to the plants next time), primers of upcoming episodes (shopping for gun parts in a seller's market), and other assorted Garage Hour goodness.  #Becausegearhead!
