Adam Carolla and the Professor Sandy Ganz talk with Tim Dadik, Vice President, Field Sales Manager of Chubb Insurance.

Adam also chats a bit about driving a couple of cars at Willow Springs for his new Speed Channel show. Then a quick video that shows how Edmunds.com test out a couple of ‘regular daily drivers’, the Lexus LFA and Porsche GT2 RS.

One thing we did find out after the shoot that the Porsche DID have a computer code being flashed that was causing the car not to have full power at launch. The subsequently tested the car back on the Drag race against the LFA and it did do more of what was expected. Check that out at Inside Line Lexus LFA vs Porsche GT2 RS
