Friday Feb 01, 2019
In this episode we recap the fun, the work, and the Wankers we met in
Scottsdale. This was another adventure to remember with great people and
we’re already looking forward to next year. If you think these stories are
good, you should hear the ones we couldn’t record!
We have to put out a HUGE thanks to Seth Thomas of APC Auto Spa and Davis
Mock who volunteered there time to help with our event.
Most importantly, this was our official one year friendiversary with our
manager and practically little sister, Amanda from Drivers Club! We
wouldn’t have made it this far without her.

Master Collector Peter Gleeson - Part 2
Friday Jan 04, 2019
Friday Jan 04, 2019
Did you wonder what the title “Master Collector” actually meant? Listen to
the follow up episode with Master Collector Peter Gleeson and you will
quickly understand exactly why they call him “Master Collector.” The BMW
fans are especially going to love this episode, but we’ve got something
here for just about everyone. You might even be able to strike up a
conversation with that art history major barista you’ve been flirting with
after this one.
*Art history majors can send their hate mail to info@raincitysupercars.com
and put “For Dan” in the subject line.

Master Collector Peter Gleeson - Part 1
Friday Dec 28, 2018
Friday Dec 28, 2018
Peter Gleeson is one of those rare people you hope just keeps talking. His
car collection is more than a collection of nice cars he bought because
they were good investments or eye catching; each car has a story - like
being involved in a bank robbery. We’re already looking forward to having
Peter back on in the future and we’re sure you will too. In part one of
this two part episode, Peter talks to us about his life and his move to the
states and how his love for cars and taste in them was formed.

Did we say great? We may have been overselling it a little, but it was fun!
We asked our friend and crowd favorite previous guest Jason Bourriague to
come into Drivers Club and join us for a fun episode sharing stories and
recapping what a fun year we’ve had. Photographer Karl Noakes even had us
dress up extra nice for the photos. Jason made sure to make us look bad,
but we digress.
