    • Episode 169: 1964 APBA Gold Cup Audio Broadcast
      Nov 11 2025

      Send us a text

      Spray hangs in the air, engines hammer the river, and a championship teeters on a half‑boat‑length margin. We crack open a restored broadcast from the 1964 APBA Gold Cup in Detroit and ride every surge, swerve, and split‑second decision that made this one of the most dramatic finishes in unlimited hydroplane history. This is all in thanks to Bob Van Den Akker who donated audio footage to the podcast!

      Unfortunately, the first set of heats were not recorded, so we drop into Heat 2A with Chuck Thompson’s Tahoe Miss carving through rough water while Notre Dame’s Bill Muncey chases in hot pursuit!

      Episode 169 marks the end of our 7th season. Did you enjoy our latest season? Please subscribe, share the show, and tell us your favorite moment!

    • Episode 168: Tom D'Eath, Part 4
      Nov 4 2025

      Send us a text

      The conversation widens beyond speed for Episode 168. We start part 4 by comparing the different hulls that Tom raced for Bernie Little and Budweiser Racing. Tom then relives the stock car crash that fractured ended his driving career. Then he walks us through the reinvention: launching APBA’s vintage and historic category and behind-the-scenes story of saving Detroit’s Gold Cup when the experts said it was finished. Subscribe, share with a fellow speed fan, and leave a review with the moment that surprised you most.
