Getting Up Close and Personal at the NASCAR Chicago Street Race
It's Friday, so that means it's podcast time again!
This week we chat about rising new-car prices, NASCAR in Chicago, and battery booster packs.
TTAC contributor Matthew Guy and I discuss battery packs and what it was like to be up close and personal for what could be the last NASCAR street race in Chicago. Automotive industry analyst Robby DeGraff stops by to talk about new-car shoppers who are looking for value.
We also preview this weekend's NASCAR race at Sonoma, and we'll have plenty to say about some off-track NASCAR action in upcoming episodes. Stay tuned for our thoughts on Daniel Suarez leaving Trackhouse and ongoing legal battles between NASCAR and teams like 23XI Racing.

We thank Matthew Guy and Robby DeGraff for their time and Matt Posky for editing. Most of all, we thank you for listening!
We’ll see you next time!

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.
