OL #5 - Kids in the Pits

We’ve said it over and over here at Autoline: kids just aren’t into cars the way they used to be. They’d rather play with their iPhones than polish a muscle car. So if you can’t get teenagers interested in driving cars, how can you ever hope to get a new generation of kids to be mechanics? That challenge is what this month’s special Open Line guest aims to solve. Pete Raskovic is a 25+ year master technician, race mechanic and automotive educator, and we’ll be asking him what advantages there are to pursuing a career in automotive education.

OL #7 - LULz with Lutz

It's the big Open Line Finale of 2011, and boy did we find the right guest to help us go out with a bang! We've got the legendary automotive icon that can't help but speak his mind: Bob Lutz. We'll have tons to ask him, and we're sure you will too, but chief among our concerns is the latest news about the Chevrolet Volt. The extended-range EV was developed under his wing, and we'll be asking him whether the battery fires have been blown out of proportion. Plus, we'll be asking him about his involvement with Lotus and where that company is going.
