Gale Banks

September 18, 2009

Gale Banks and Adam Carolla talk Diesel and Big Diesel power. We get into some talk about algae and alternative sources of energy. Then Sandy (The Professor) and Adam take on another week of Investment Cars. Next onto Skype calls, NOS and Tombstones? You Figure it out. Then the CarCast crew head out for a quick trip to the Palos Verdes Car show to check out a special work of automotive art, the Maserati Tipo 61 ‘Birdcage’. And the wrap up with Doug Benson’s first car.

    Love to see that Diesel is finally getting a look from gearheads. I’ve been driving oil-burners on and off since the 80s and love their frugal nature. When fuel prices started climbing I started making my own at home and now are living what most people only talk about: energy independence. Costs me about a buck a gallon to make and my car gets 50 MPG. That translates to about three cents a mile.

    Looking forward to giving today’s show a listen once it shows up in iTunes.

      yeah, but if your rings and guides are fucked, (and if you’re driving some old piece of shit diesel, which you are) then you’re burning engine oil, fuckin douche-face. I was driving behind one of you arrogant idiots yesterday.

    I have the same problem with Itunes. It says the URL is not valid and will not download. Get on it Donny! Fuck!

    The iTunes issues should be corrected now. We updated somethings (Technical term) and had a glitch (Other technical term).

    For iTunes listners you may have to just ‘refresh’ the feed in iTunes or do as a worse case un-subscribe then re-subscribe. The new feed should have the CarCast logo now displayed in iTunes.

    Please let us know if you’re still having issues after trying the above steps.

      He was joking about the engine in the Birdcage. Like the Datsun/Nissan exchange from a couple of weeks back.

      And how are you going to get through life if you live in fear of ever hearing anyone who has a viewpoint you dont already agree with?

    “This ‘In loving memory of Chuy’ bullshit is bringing me down.”

    Rare actual LOL moment for me. Chalk it up to beer & college football.

    Another great podcast! Great to hear from Gale Banks about high performance diesel technology. A friend of mine just bought a BMW 335 diesel. That thing has 265 HP and 425 torque. It’s faster than hell.

    I don’t know anything about cars, but I really enjoy the Carcasts. Also, Gale Banks is the man.

    10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag!

    Really would love to see the Carcast crew at SEMA. If you are planning on going, let us know where and when you’ll be there so we can thank you in person for what an awesome product you’ve given us.

    Great guest! Way to show off your diesel chops with the “predetonation” statement Adam. You might not just be a dumb carpenter after all.

    Get it on!
