Features

And we have two feature stories.

  • Alan Zurvas joins us to talk about pollution in cars within the cabin, as you drive, there’s been some research out by emissions analytics looking at the environment within vehicles in three locations: Los Angeles, Oxford in the UK and Stuttgart in Germany.
  • And we catch up with our good friend Evan Jones, who’s just been officiating at a round of the NSW Hill Climb Championship, one of the most interesting points that I thought came out of that is the rules and regulations you need to have in New South Wales.
    If you are to run electric vehicles, basically they are so arduous that they exclude any event like this.
    Being able to have electric cars and I think that’s a shame, because a great way to get interest in grassroots motor racing is for people to be able to enter some street cars and hill climb is a great opportunity for that.
    How do electric cars compare? That would be a very interesting point.
