As an electronics engineer I’m very interested in whats going on with hybrid technologies and the impeding FIA sanctioned Formula E open-wheeler category. Monday, a demo was done by Lucas di Grassi in Los Angeles. Just one block mind you, police cars at each end. Now correct me if...
Not beholden to Holden
posted by JP
There has been a lot of bitching and moaning in the last couple of days. It’s revolved around Holden’s decision to axe another 400 jobs, and as usual, it’s been fed furiously by the mainstream media – creating conflict where there was really only a difference of opinion and interpretation. Let’s make it perfectly clear, as far as V8 Supercars (supposedly the best touring-car/tintop competition in the world at present) are concerned, there would be no history, no Bathurst 50th anniversary last year and quite simply, no V8 Supercar or Australian Touring Car Championship, past or present, without Ford &...

A round of applause for Casey Stoner – partly because of his great drive from 30th to 14th today in Race 2 of the Dunlop Development Series, but mostly for lifting the profile of the Series to somewhere it should have been for the past few seasons, as a true feeder series for the V8...

Viewers, I’m impressed – and if you talk to Harty, he’d tell you I’m a cranky old cynic at the best of times! But here we are at the Bathurst 12 Hour(s), and apart from the name, which as you’ll know if you’ve already listened to Ep. 239, we reckon should be...
On Location
OUR PARTNERS
Radio HOTLAP is available free on the Apple iTunes Music Store, as a podcast.
Our World Headquarters are located in a rather nice part of Adelaide, where regular production takes place. Unless we're somewhere else, which is often the case.
If you ask nicely, you may be allowed to be part of our live audience. 
There comes a time, in this case after six years, with over 240 episodes recorded in 10 different countries, 300+ guests and 220 continuous hours of recording, that we feel its time to go commercial. With over 55,000 viewers, since March 2011, we get some serious exposure. So we thought a magazine to fill in the gaps would be nice. 
Our firm policy that we don't edit a show once its recorded is because it detracts from its natural conversational character in the first place. Commercial partners and alliances will have to adhere to policy and whilst we'll do the best to accommodate you and make you feel loved you have no control of how we do things. Just so we're clear on that :)
