About this episode
Alex and Randy talk in depth about BaT's experience at our first European event, the Historic Grand Prix held at the world-famous Zandvoort F1 track; Dutch tow vehicles; historic racers vs. "historic" racers; the right-sized '64 Falcon in Europe; our excitement to roll out more Local Partners in the EU; reflecting on 10 years of BaT Auctions this month; a call for current information about Lot #1, Randy's old Boss 302; a mild dig at a certain brick-and-mortar auction house; BaT's long and varied history at Laguna Seca during Car Week; the upcoming BaT Alumni Gatherings at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix on August 3 and the Monterey Historics on August 17; recent listings that have caught our eye; the modern practice of thumbing through a printed parts catalog on the way from the mailbox to the recycling bin; and, not unrelated, unsolicited thoughts on Summit Racing. Sign up to attend the upcoming PVGP Alumni Gathering on August 3 and the Monterey Alumni Gathering at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca on August 17!
