Talkin’ Shift Podcast

Calvin and his dad Andrew from Nivlac57 join Fred, Witty, and Reece to talk about their love for building FAST cars with engines nobody else wants! From GM 4200s and Cadillac Northstars to Nissan VK56s, these guys have made a name for themselves by taking overlooked junkyard engines and making some SERIOUS horsepower on a budget. We dive into their unique builds, why they choose to do things differently, and how they've managed to make some unlikely combinations go ridiculously fast.

Fred, Witty, and Reece are back from FL2K26 to recap the highs and lows of the 4 day weekend in Florida. From Brett LaSala and Snot Rocket breaking the stick shift world record to the unfortunate tire failure, Cleetus getting disqualified, Leroy taking home the win, and everything in between.

Fred, Witty, and Reece are back to recap War in the Woods 15 and discuss what makes this event one of the BEST no prep races in the world. From the unique atmosphere and incredible racing to some of our favorite moments from the weekend, the guys break down why War in the Woods continues to be an event we look forward to every year.

Fred, Witty, and Reece are back at the table to break down everything that went down at the recent Stick Shift race at Great Lakes Dragaway in Wisconsin. Some of the fastest stick shift cars in the world were in one place, giving us a pretty good look at who the top dogs are right now. The guys talk through the racing, stories from the weekend, and where some of the biggest names in the stick shift world currently stack up.

We're back! With another episode of Talkin' Shift - this time back at the studio to recap everything from our Alaska trip. We talk about the stories you missed, we ragebait Witty with some BMW jargon, and we talk about a race we filmed in Wyoming that will never make it to YouTube.
