Love how this is the 86th episode when Group B ended in 1986

This is Ford v Ferrari but in rally. Thank you for making this podcast. I always wanted a podcast version of this. Really appreciated it

I learned more about manscaped and valvoline than I learned about Group B.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers of the donut crew! You’ve raised some awesome kids, who put smiles on millions of faces each day! Thank you for all you do!

I think an episode about mika häkkinen and his rivalries with ayrton senna and michael schumaher would be great.

And I just found out the last Group B race was the first and only one ever held in the US, held in Washington, I had no idea many of the back roads I've ripped are legit group B courses!!!

I miss Group B. So much fun to watch. Reminds me of my dad and Saturday afternoons, yelling at the people to get out of the way. So exciting.

You should definitely make a shirt that says "huck it, get squirrelly" with a cartoon of Joe drifting a Lancia Stratos on dirt...just sayin, we would buy it 😉

The O37 is a work of art. It deserved to win on looks alone.

It's funny how Noah is always waiting for the others to stop their tangent

this podcast really shows off James' performance skills. Bravo sir.

I will never not laugh at Joe's genuine sounds of disbelief at the horsepower figure of the RS500

I’ve been waiting for this. I first learned about group B from donut and I fell in love with it immediately

The "huck it, get squirrely" shirt needs to happen!

On February 26, Hannu Mikkola passed away at the age of 78. His career spanned more than three decades with 1983 Championship and Unbelievably 629 Stage Wins! He won his home rally, Rally Finland Whopping Seven Times! R.I.P. LEGEND

more rally please

What’s wrong with ordering a whiskey and DP at a bar?!?!?

I love this show, but 6 minutes of sponsored ads in a row is a bit much... yes I skipped through them but it feels too close to TV at this point

Sunday is past gas day !

Huck it and Get Squirrely shirt with a squirrel sitting in a tiny car!

Anyone gonna tell them pole cats are ferrets..?

Is there any possibility to watch these podcasts without the ad breaks? I would pay for it, but this is just too much. I really like these podcasts to listen to while doing other stuff but the ads are just getting out of hand

*WATCHING JAMES IN 3 DONUT UPLOADS IN A ROW-*

Nolan, a polecat is NOT a skunk, an early English settler mistook a skunk for one because actual polecats are sort of smelly ferret type mustelids.

Every time when your podcasts comes out I listen to it on the way home from work. Nothing else can keep me entertained as much as you guys! Keep up the great podcasts!

James: “STOP!…. STOP!…. STOP!…” Kathleen Kennedy: “ Fade in…..”😂

danng, four minutes of ad reads right off the bat ?? resist the urge Nolan!! don't go full Ethan Klein on us buddy *** five ad reads, so like 10 mins (!!) before the half-way mark?! dawgs what the.... I do like those Duke Cannon scents but come ON my dudes.

A pole cat is literally it’s own thing. A skunk is nicknamed a polecat because it looks like a Pole cat.

Y'all either struggling or money hungry, so much advertisement.. the skip 10 seconds ahead feature is a relief (KZfaq vanced app). Y'all are entertaining tho so I'm just whining

FYI - a polecat is not necessarily a skunk. They were probably referring to the european polecat, which is basically a ferret.

“Huck it and get squirrelly” need that shirt

Curious how a Wrx or an Evo would do if they could’ve been apart of Group B. Imagining a 600hp Evo 6 😍

A polecat is not a skunk, brought. More like a ferret.

Finally. Let’s Go!!!!!!!! Been asking for this forever.

I just finished listening to this podcast on Spotify and I say rewind after you say be kind Everytime and you said it finally in this episode. Lol.

Great episode lads

Relevant content starts around 10:20 :) Also, there's more advertising than podcast

Huck it and get squirrely, do it!😉

I love the Geand Tour episode about this topic!!!

This intro , absolutely fantastic 👏

WOW, how many sponsors does it take to make an episode? 10 minutes of ad's?!?

can you do one about drifting plz

Watched this in grand tour. Nice work man.

5 baked in adverts in the first half hour. I like these podcasts but it's getting excessive. I pay for premium to avoid ads, I get sponsor bits and I'm ok with them but not this many.

Hazards were definitely high at Safari Rally. Teams hired helicopters to watch for animals and the roads were public roads so they had to be careful of normal cars on the stage as well. Do a freaking episode on Finnish Rally please

I realize you have to pay the bills , but damn lost interest after the 2nd set of advertisement.

Hell yeah this is awesome 😎

I have 5 years of college under my belt so far and I still can’t pronounce names

An Iltis is a ferret. They're not skunks.

Polecats are more like ferrets then skunks.

I love these podcasts but its starting to feel like its hitting a point where there's more ad than content. I get you guys have gotta make money but surely you've gotta find that level aggregious?

As requested, James, here is your hogwarts Carol Shelby past gas fan fiction as written by Bard. The Hogwarts Express screeched to a halt, spewing steam like a dragon clearing its throat. On the platform, amidst the throngs of excited witches and wizards, stood four figures who looked like they'd tumbled out of a time warp: Nolan, grease-stained and muttering incantations to his perpetually stalled Dodge Imperial; Joe, the fiery Italian whose charisma crackled louder than his wand; James Pumphrey, the jester whose catchphrases rivaled the spark plugs he'd replaced; and the ever-observant Thomas, his sharp eyes missing nothing. They were Past Gas, and Hogwarts - a world of magic and mischief - awaited. "Fire it up!" Joe boomed, his grin wider than the Hogwarts gates. James countered with a flamboyant "HRSPRS!", sending owls scattering and earning him a disapproving flick of McGonagall's wand. Only Nolan remained focused, murmuring to his beloved Imperial like a prayer whispered to the automotive gods. Suddenly, a rumble echoed through the crowd. Emerging from a cloud of exhaust fumes was none other than Professor Carol Shelby, a legendary wizard and world-renowned gearhead. His handlebar mustache twitched as he surveyed the wide-eyed students, a glint of mischief in his eyes. "Welcome, students, to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry," he announced, his voice like the purr of a well-tuned engine. "But forget your broomsticks and wands for a moment. Here, it's all about horsepower and high-octane spells!" Professors raised eyebrows, owls hooted in shock, and even McGonagall's stern expression faltered. This wasn't your typical Hogwarts initiation. But Past Gas? They grinned, their hearts humming like souped-up hot rods. This was their kind of magic. The sorting ceremony became a spectacle. The Sorting Hat, a dusty fedora tipped with a spark plug, landed on Joe's head. "Gryffindor!" it roared, and Joe bellowed in response, throwing the hat into the air with a "Wink Wink Nation salute." James, bouncing on his toes, hoped for Gryffindor too, but the Hat surprised him with "Ravenclaw!" James bowed theatrically, then winked at Luna Lovegood, who promptly offered him a Crumple-Horned Snorkack horn, which James promptly tried to "souped-up" with a flick of his wand (with disastrous results). Thomas, calm and steady, landed in Hufflepuff, while Nolan, after a tense deliberation with the Hat, was placed in Slytherin. Their Hogwarts years became a whirlwind of quidditch matches on enchanted motorcycles (James, of course, still on his magical pogo stick), Potions lessons turned into chemistry labs where Nolan brewed gasoline-infused elixirs, and Charms class saw sparks flying, both magical and mechanical. Joe, naturally, charmed his way into the kitchens (and became suspiciously popular with the house-elves). Under Professor Shelby's tutelage, Hogwarts transformed. Gargoyles sported leather jackets, portraits winked with knowing smiles, and the Great Hall echoed with the rhythmic thump of enchanted pistons. Students buzzed with the thrill of Transfiguration, not into animals, but into souped-up broomsticks and self-driving cauldrons. Hogwarts, the ancient citadel of magic, had met its match in the gearhead wizardry of Past Gas. But beyond the chaos and laughter, Past Gas faced challenges. A grumpy troll with a love for vintage spark plugs terrorized the dungeons, a magical rust monster devoured enchanted engines, and the dreaded Carbuncle Inspector threatened to shut down Professor Shelby's unauthorized "Hogwarts Hot Rod Garage." In the end, it wasn't just Hogwarts that changed Past Gas. They, in turn, changed Hogwarts. They taught the witches and wizards the magic of engines, the thrill of a well-timed tune-up, and the importance of a good cup of coffee (James' invention, the "Double Decaf Espresso Potion," became a surprisingly popular choice amongst sleep-deprived students). As the first year drew to a close, Past Gas knew they weren't just students at Hogwarts. They were gearheads, adventurers, and maybe, just maybe, heroes in the making. And as they rode the Hogwarts Express back home, one thing was certain: their journey, like a souped-up hot rod fueled by friendship and mischief, had just begun. And Professor Shelby, watching them go, smiled, a glint of pride in his eyes. He knew, better than anyone, that magic comes in many forms, and sometimes, the most potent spells are cast with a wrench and a prayer to the automotive gods.

only 1 HUGE mistake.... in the beginning yall were saying the RS500 but meant the RS200.... otherwise well told story

That was the most intense intro to a podcast I've ever heard

A Polecat is more like a ferret or stoat than a skunk.

Can we get a bumper 2 bumper on the Honda del sol plz 😶

Past gas needs more pics and videos

Good podcast when you managed to squeeze it in between the ads. Love James' cool auntie Michele flashfic, but really. So. Many. Ads.

Dude, rally kills spectators all the time. Not just group B.

You guys need Jeremy Clarkson as a guest for an episode similir to this one here. Cha

A polecat is a ferret

Exo XIII and The Audi Quattro are my dream cars.

Day 23 of asking Donut to make an Up to Speed on Top Secret.

I only came here for the bants

an episode on tv/movie cars would be pretty rad

Can you episode of gazoo racing and the driver who passed

polecats are not skunks. They’re closely related, but closer to a weasel.

Whooooa trippy, I was literally listening to Triumph by Wu Tang just before I threw on this podcast....

17:57, Donut on skunks

🥺Y’all made it. Finally 🙌🏼😭

Podcast on Alan Kulwicki...he's one of the greatest NASCAR champions...

Fun fact: the martini racing livery is based on the colour on the bottle of thier Asti Sparking wine

More group B is good group B

The whole fans dying in group b racing thing reminded me of metalocalypse... Brutal! (sad news, but brutal)

I watched this in grand tour

So now that up to speed is back when are we getting a Saturday episode? Bring back the vs show

More rally-related stuff! :)

15mins of add sponsors

The manscaped ad

German reliability is the most contradictory thing I’ve ever heard😂

Now do Subaru and Mitsubishi

I love y'all, but 3 ads in a row is a bit much.

Sounds better then Ford vs Ferrari

Mint 400 look up Best in the Desert

Martini & Rossi is swill. Get Noilly Prat or Vya.

Here for the movie

its like they crammed all of the adds into one video... still like the podcast tho.

Eight ads is not cool dudes

Do the INDY 500 next

euro guys to north american Audi guy's "lancia is superior" NA audi guys "what the fuck is a lancia?

Duke Cannon did not offer me a free shipping for the order of Thick 4 pack which is more than $20. False advertising.

The original rollerball was much better..

Today I found out my 21 year old Focus zx3 has less miles than Nolan’s mustang

Do skunk farts smell like weed or does weed smell like skunk farts?

That's not how you say LANCIA!

Ayy my country

Lancia is such a waste of a brand these days. Someone could buy it up at a bargain and just start sticking Lancia badges on better cars and make a ton of money.

Extremely low audio volume. PC is at 100% with loudness EQ on, and it's at a normal volume.

The ads are getting a little out of hand here.

yoga mat still the same spot. just move it nolan , make me feel better
