In this episode Neal and Shane sit down and talk about how we're dealing with some of the aspects of the shutdown, interesting effects on E-Sports racing, and some of the challenges faced in getting started with online racing.

This episode, Shane puts his feety-pajamas on and let's ol Neal tell him about his glory days as an enduro racer.. then switches gear to have a discussion on choosing the right Tires for your application, where to go for data, and how big of a grain of salt to take it with. ED Note: This ep was recorded before before some of the information on new Yokohamas and Falkens hit the air.

Neal and Shane talk Nats Recap, and Neal's adventures in faster events.. and tips on making that transition to your first track day and getting more comfortable with high speed driving.

In the last episode before Nats 2019, Neal and Shane have a relaxed discussion about approaching Nats without absolutely freaking out, point at a few other episodes we've done on Nats Prep (Episodes 5 and 12) and trying to find that balance of fun and srs bzns.

Make sure to listen in before heading to nats, as there's a special surprise in this episode for our listeners who will be visiting us in Lincoln

Through unknown powers of persuasion, Neal was drawn into a hotel room with none other than Chuck Mathews of Mathews Racing / Team Overkill. Once the microphones were busted out, the discussion immediately turned to urethane cylinders...

 On this episode of the Cone Coach Podcast Neal Tovsen and Shane Donahue connect again the first time since Solo Nationals and have a bit of a recap chat about our various performances, as well as having a discussion about cold weather tire performance, ranging from heat management to when the no-seasons in the garage may be a better play.

If you're uninterested in the story of Neal's first National Championship, we understand.. you can Skip to 27:27 to get right to the tire stuff.

But you should totally listen to the first part... Neal made me put that in there because he thinks he's uninteresting. Tell him how interesting the story actually is on Facebook.com/ConeCoach

Solo Nats time has come and gone, but with both Shane and Neal driving on Thurs/Fri and only minor catastrophic explosions this year, we were met with our first opportunity to have a guest!

By his Facebook description, Peter Florance is the "Tuning Guy at PFTuning.com" and you could say he knows a few things about how the flame liquid gets into your engine, and how the spark makers light it on fire.

So sit down with Peter, Neal and Shane in a rented RV in the on a huge piece of concrete just off to the left of an airfield in Lincoln, NE for the latest episode of Cone Coach Podcast!
