Port Gridlock, Leno’s Law & the Soul of Cars: This Week in Gearhead Gold

from Full Throttle Talk · host Tim Harris

In this high-octane episode of Full Throttle Talk, we’re diving headfirst into the week’s biggest headlines and hardest-hitting conversations for true automotive enthusiasts. Audi, Land Rover, and others are freezing deliveries—what's behind the port chaos and what does it mean for your next new car? Leno’s Law is official—Jay Leno just helped change the game for collectors and classic car owners. Formula 1’s bold move back to V10s in 2026 (yes, you read that right), with synthetic fuels leading the charge—can we dare to dream of the golden sound again? Used car tariffs? Dodged. What that means for Bring a Trailer and the rest of the enthusiast auction world. This week’s biggest Bring a Trailer winners and losers—and yes, a Singer 911 may have taken an unexpected hit. The return of the wagon wars: Audi RS6 Avant vs BMW M5 Touring—could SUVs be on the decline? And what about… vans? Lastly, we ask: Do cars have a soul? Does a German car smell, drive, or feel different than a Japanese one—or are we all just marketing dupes? Whether you're a wrench-turning purist or just love a good gearhead debate—this episode hits redline.
