Speaker 1 0:03

Welcome to another In Wheel Time Podcast , a 30 minute mini version of the In Wheel Time car show that airs live every Saturday morning 8 to 11am central . It's the In Wheel Time car talk show coming up Andrew Rogers and the Woodlands High School Auto Enthusiast Club Later . Look at the automotive headlines this week Howdy , along with Mike out of this world , mars King , conrad DeLong . We always need Jeff Zekin . I'm , don Armstrong , so glad that you could join us on this Saturday . We had a little bit of rain overnight what None here , but a lot of it on the east side of town , and we're just praying that some of that makes its way over here later on this afternoon .

Speaker 2 0:48

I like the way you did that .

Speaker 1 0:51

Come on , come on , come on , come on , baby , back it up . We're bringing the whole thing in . Andrew Rogers is with the Woodlands High School Auto Enthusiast Club and they got a big coffee and cars event coming up , andrew , good morning to you , sir . Good morning .

Speaker 4 1:07

How are y'all doing ?

Speaker 1 1:07

today . Well , we're doing just great . Thank you so much for joining us . So yeah , so , andrew , tell me about the Woodlands High School Auto Enthusiasts Club . We just like the name .

Speaker 4 1:20

Well , I appreciate that I can't take credit for the name that goes to my students .

Speaker 4 1:23

So I'm a teacher here at the Woodlands High School and a couple years ago a couple of my students that were in one of my classes came up to me and said that we want to form a car club at the school .

Speaker 4 1:34

To my knowledge , no other school had ever done really anything like that . We're not in my classroom right now , but in my classroom I've got car stuff everywhere memorabilia and models and things and stuff and so they know what I'm about and they wanted to form a car club and I said that sounds awesome , it sounds like a great idea . And so we formed this club to kind of educate students and teenagers on cars and car culture and trucks and motorcycles of course too , and we host events and stuff . We do cars and coffee types of things every now and then . We support our community as well and , to be honest , the kids make my job real easy . I've got Braden here next to us . He's our club vice president and yeah , it's a great time . It's a great way for the kids to learn how sometimes to work on cars but also just kind of learn about what they like and just the culture in general .

Speaker 1 2:36

Well , let's go back just a minute . So Woodlands High School isn't that in the Conroe district ?

Speaker 4 2:41

It is , yeah , we're in Conroe ISD in the Woodlands north of Spring .

Speaker 1 2:45

Yeah , I did not know that Conroe had an automotive program .

Speaker 4 2:50

Yeah , they do , they've got . There's a couple of different ones . There's sort of one that's a little bit more on the mechanical side , and then there's a body shop and paint body program as well , operating , I think , mostly out of Conroe High School , and students from other high schools in the district can bus over to that .

Speaker 1 3:08

So is it kind of like you know the football game on Friday night the Woodlands High School playing Conroe High School .

Speaker 4 3:14

Yeah , sometimes , yeah .

Speaker 1 3:17

I had to go there because we're on football season . Yeah , you know there's a little competitiveness , but it's all under one umbrella with the Conroe . Well , I'm proud that Conroe has got an automotive program .

Speaker 2 3:28

Absolutely , you know there's so many .

Speaker 1 3:30

I wanted one so bad at Westbury High School , yeah , nothing , nothing for me , and I would assume that they still don't have an automotive program . Then there aren't too many automotive programs that I'm aware of in Houston ISD , and I think that there should be , because you know there are us guys that we're all into cars . So you have to give me the name of your guest that's sitting with you .

Speaker 5 3:59

Braden Braden Smith . I'm the vice president of the automotive enthusiast club here .

Speaker 1 4:07

So , braden , let me ask you , what are the high school guys and gals into these days ? You guys into the big light Camaros , no , or I was going to say Asian cars . I mean , what is it that really gets y'all's going here ?

Speaker 5 4:24

Yeah . So we have a really wide range of , I guess , enthusiasts . We have a lot of the big V8 type muscle car guys , and then we have import guys , and actually the president of our club here drives a Japanese car . He drives a Mazda Miata . Oh , and he loves that . We have a former member that drove a Miata and I drive a Fiat one to four spiders . So yeah .

Speaker 1 5:02

Did you buy that one to four spider yourself or did you get a little help from mom and dad ? I got a little bit help . I'm just going to say , because that's a pretty , pretty nice little car there , fun little car , yeah , exactly One of those that you can kind of throw around .

Speaker 2 5:16

I love the logo of the pistons and wrenches .

Speaker 3 5:18

That's pretty cool , you should get a hold of Richard Tomlin . He's all into the Mazdas . He could probably go on a hill climb with him , mexico .

Speaker 1 5:25

Yeah , the only problem is with Richard .

Speaker 2 5:27

Actually his Miata .

Speaker 1 5:29

The Miata has got a big V8 .

Speaker 2 5:30

It's got an LS7 with twin turbos in it .

Speaker 1 5:33

Yeah , so there is that . So what do you guys at the Woodlands High School Auto Enthusiast Club I mean ? Is it mainly cosmetic stuff ? Is it engine stuff ? What are you guys into these days ? How are you hopping up your cars ?

Speaker 4 5:50

A little bit of anything that we are able to do . So as far as just like the club is concerned , it's more of a student interest club than anything . You know we don't have a shop here at the school or anything . It's more of kind of a place for enthusiasts and students who are into cars to kind of come together and bond and , you know , make friends and stuff like that .

Speaker 1 6:09

It's kind of like the school chess club .

Speaker 4 6:10

That's what I was thinking .

Speaker 3 6:11

The chess club .

Speaker 6 6:12

Chess club on wheels .

Speaker 1 6:14

How many members in the club . How many members in the club ?

Speaker 4 6:18

Uh , 35 or so , oh my gosh .

Speaker 3 6:21

And do y'all help each other out . If somebody needs a break job or , uh , you know , a fender dent taken out , y'all get together so you don't have a classroom there at the school , you all just get together and do your thing at everybody else's garages .

Speaker 4 6:35

Yeah , we meet in my classroom after school some , you know , on Mondays and stuff to kind of talk and hang out for a little bit . And then on the weekends and things , some of the members get together . And I know uh , last last year before the summer I had a member uh throw a 660 cam at his uh LT 1 Camaro and uh came to the , came to the meeting the next day and made some , made some noise in the parking lot , yeah .

Speaker 1 7:02

Yeah , that they have to call the police or what .

Speaker 4 7:05

No , we're on , we're on . Uh , we're on good terms with the CISD police .

Speaker 1 7:09

Oh , that's good . Yeah , I'm glad to hear that .

Speaker 2 7:12

Well , the good thing is is you guys get a chance to funnel that enthusiasm for cars in a bit of a controlled environment Positive way , you know , because you know . You know , when I was a kid my enthusiasm for cars really was was very positive and I didn't have a good relationship though I had a constant relationship with the police . It wasn't a good one .

Speaker 3 7:34

And ours , our version of a car club , was see who could do the burnout without getting caught in the parking lot .

Speaker 4 7:38

Right , that was our version . Yeah , yeah , that's a big positive for the club too , I think , because it's , you know , I've for . You know , without giving too much away , I you know it was into some aspects of the community as a teenager as well that maybe weren't so positive .

Speaker 6 7:53

What a diplomatic way of putting it . Yeah , that's a school teachers version right here .

Speaker 4 7:58

Well , you know , and this is , it's a really cool thing for to be able to provide this sort of outlet for young enthusiasts , you know , in a more positive way , you know , doing cars and coffee types of events instead of doing takeovers .

Speaker 2 8:11

So tell us about the event you have coming up .

Speaker 4 8:14

So next weekend , on Saturday September 16 , right here at the Woodlands High School , we're going to host our first cars and coffee of the year .

Speaker 1 8:22

Wonderful Of the school year that is that's going to be at the Woodlands High School .

Speaker 4 8:27

Correct . This one is at the Woodlands High School . It'll be in the 1000s park and a lot will have signs up and everything .

Speaker 3 8:33

Are you getting any support from the dealerships in your area ?

Speaker 4 8:36

So for our school events we don't usually we've reached out to a couple of speciality dealerships that bring a little bit of their stock . Last April was that April Last , the big maybe ? Yeah , april of last year we had a district wide event , a huge event that we hosted at the Woodlands Bank Football Stadium , and then we've got this same sort of event coming up on October 21st . Gullo brings out some of their stuff . Gullo Ford brings out some of their stock . We post oak motors , which is like an exotic car dealership . They're going to bring out some of their stock as well . So we do get some support from the community and from people in the industry around here .

Speaker 3 9:15

Very good . So what was I was going to say for Braden ? What's your plan to get into the automotive industry ? What are your goals in this ?

Speaker 5 9:23

I mean , as of now , really just have fun . You know it's . It was hard trying to find like-minded people . I'm new to the Texas area . I was a freshman out of two years ago now and I was really . I was new and I didn't know many people that were , you know , into the car I guess seen . So joining the club was really just to meet like-minded people that I could hang out with in the out of school . And you know , for the future I would say I'm not quite sure yet but I'd say I do want to go into something , maybe in the automotive engineering field . I like taking stuff apart and putting it back together , seeing how things work .

Speaker 3 10:16

I think all car guys do .

Speaker 5 10:19

I think that would be my dream to be able to design or just something , anything really in the automotive field .

Speaker 3 10:29

You're a junior . You've got a whole big door open in front of you , so I'm sure you'll do fine .

Speaker 6 10:33

Regardless of which way you go you could be a dentist and still be a car guy .

Speaker 2 10:40

Just to give you a little insight . I went through the same thing in high school with a big interest in cars . I ended up 25 years as a field engineer with General Motors , ten years of that assigned to the Bowling Green Assembly Plant . So working on Corvettes was a lot of fun .

Speaker 3 10:55

It was either that or going into law enforcement .

Speaker 2 10:57

Well , law enforcement placing me someplace .

Speaker 1 11:00

Yeah , that's right . I'm really excited about this and I'm excited about having a connection with you guys . We're happy Because we can follow you and we can be . You know , if we can't be there at the event , at least we can be there in spirit . Absolutely we can do that . And the other thing is I think would be really cool is for any videos that you guys shoot , be sure and get them to us so we can post them on the Inwheel Time car talk show site .

Speaker 4 11:34

That'd be great . Yeah , we'd be absolutely more than happy

High School Car Club and Events

Speaker 4 11:37

to .

Speaker 1 11:37

I have to ask you , Andrew , did they call you Mr Rogers ?

Speaker 4 11:42

They do , and at the beginning of the school year I will . I don't say it so much anymore , but I used to always say and , in case you're wondering , it is a beautiful day in my neighborhood . So few of the kids get that reference anymore . I kind of let it falter .

Speaker 6 11:57

Yeah , it's like we have a guest later on and when I was talking to him I said you know it's the new car season . He knew what I was talking about . He's our age , but a bunch of people are going to know what the new car season is because it just there is no new car season anymore .

Speaker 1 12:12

It's old school because it's used to September , october , and all the dealerships would bring out all their brand new iron and everybody would go .

Speaker 6 12:20

Oh yeah , Big reveals in the showroom and all that good stuff .

Speaker 3 12:23

So listen , Braden , are you going to be running for president ?

Speaker 5 12:27

Yeah , so our president is a senior this year , so next year he's going to be going off to college and I think I got a pretty good shot to be president next year .

Speaker 6 12:39

So that was one thing I was wondering about . So you graduate , so this is a high school group and it you graduate , you're out .

Speaker 3 12:48

Well , you're like the chess club .

Speaker 6 12:49

Yeah , yeah , yeah , I guess so .

Speaker 1 12:52

And I use the chat and I just use it as an example . But I mean there are all sorts of clubs within the school . I assume that there still are .

Speaker 4 13:01

They still are . Yeah , we've got a chess club too .

Speaker 6 13:03

I'd like to think we're cooler than chess club , but I think you are yes , you have a cooler logo than what the chess club has , that's for sure .

Speaker 4 13:10

I agree so .

Speaker 3 13:14

Oh trophy , Look at that .

Speaker 4 13:15

So this time , if you guys can quite see it , but our president made this last year out of some wrenches and some pistons that came out of his meada , you know in the shape of the W for the woodlands , and then we kind of made that . As for our shirt logo as well , but this is he's real proud of this and the yeah , we take it to our car shows and everything and it's a pretty cool bit of kit .

Speaker 3 13:37

Well see , not only do you have the cars , but you've got the talents to do the welding and the design and the oh yeah work of that .

Speaker 2 13:45

And it's a dual wrench kit because it does both metric and . English .

Speaker 6 13:49

There you go .

Speaker 2 13:50

Fully adjustable .

Speaker 6 13:52

So your event is coming up , your coffee and cars coming up next weekend . How , how got an idea how many cars you might show up ?

Speaker 4 13:59

with our events at the school . Yeah , right around 100 or so cars will tip the show .

Speaker 1 14:04

Is it open to the public ? I mean , can I bring the Corvette up there ?

Speaker 4 14:08

We would love that . We'll put a special spot up for you , if you want .

Speaker 2 14:10

Oh no , do you have a ? Do you have it posted anywhere ?

Speaker 4 14:16

We've got it posted on our Instagram page , which is at AE underscore TWHS . We have the Automotive Enthusiast Club of the Woodlands High School page on Facebook as well . Those are primary outlets for social media where we kind of get the word out and stuff . But yeah , it is fully open , free event , open to everybody in the community , anybody who wants to show up to bring a car . We have free coffee and donuts for as long as they last .

Speaker 1 14:45

Who's supplying the coffee and donuts ?

Speaker 4 14:47

So part of our club members got to pay dues and stuff so we can be able to host these events , and then I'll go out to get some Chick-fil-A coffee and some H-E-B donuts .

Speaker 3 14:56

Very good . This is good stuff because he's helping mold and form the future technicians and designers of the automobiles .

Speaker 6 15:06

Yeah , because for the rest of their life they can go to cruise-ins just about every place or some sort of cruise-in .

Speaker 1 15:11

You can come to some of ours that we host in a part of Okay so here's the next question Could you ever get together and bring a bus load of the members and visit another cruise-in or car show or something ?

Speaker 4 15:24

I think we could organize something out like that . Yeah , I think that sounds great . The kids have been actually bugging me about wanting to do some sort of field trip type situation .

Speaker 1 15:32

Well , we have a couple in mind . One is tailpipes and tacos we're still waiting on a date from Stan on that and the other one that comes to mind is getting the special treatment for Houston Autorama that's coming up Thanksgiving .

Speaker 6 15:47

And if we can't pull that off , I'll bet we could pull off the new car show in January .

Speaker 1 15:51

Or the new car show in January . See , carl was last week . You had no clue what you were getting yourself into with us . Now all we need to do is call whoever the president of the Conroe Independent School District is and say these kids need to have a bus over there At such and such a time . We're going to have a field trip , so you guys have to get the release forms and all that Permission slips .

Speaker 4 16:15

Yeah , I'll tell you so . The superintendent for Conroe IC , dr Curtis Knowle , is really closely involved with the club . Actually , he's a car guy himself . He's got a Foxbody Mustang it's a bit of a track car and then he's got a fully restored 65 Mustang as well .

Speaker 6 16:29

We'll let him sit in the front seat .

Speaker 1 16:31

Yeah , that's right , yeah Well , all of the cool kids want to sit the back of the bus .

Speaker 6 16:37

That's why you put the boss up in the front .

Speaker 3 16:40

I wasn't allowed in the bus .

Speaker 1 16:43

Well , this sounds like tons of fun .

Speaker 2 16:45

I'll try and get your meat posted on a couple other social media sites here that are in Houston that get a lot of action . There's a huge community in the Conroe area of people that are very active , whether it's coffee and cars for a cause or some of the other stuff that happens .

Speaker 6 17:03

Yeah , conroe cruisers are constantly in this stuff , we'll chase .

Speaker 2 17:06

Randy Weldon on that .

Speaker 3 17:07

It's not too far from where you live , though , is it no ? Okay , there you go .

Speaker 4 17:12

We've got some good members that come in some regulars . The Conroe cruisers are actually a pretty good supporter of us . They show up in force for a handful of our meets . In fact , one of their members actually works as a coworker of mine , works at school and she dailies a 68 GTO . Wow , Wow .

Speaker 1 17:26

I'm liking it . We got the car connection up in the Woodlands . There you go . It's a beautiful thing . Well , andrew and Braden , it's great to have you guys on the air with us today , and we wish you the best of luck , and we hope that you'll check in with us and let us know how things are going next Saturday and , be sure , and supply us with some video too . Okay , and now Braden is a celebrity in school .

Speaker 1 17:47

Yeah , now he's a big hit in school and everybody knows him . He's kind of like the lead in the school play .

Speaker 6 17:53

But I'll give one piece of advice Don't charge your friends for autographs . Just go ahead and sign it and smile and go on . That's it .

Speaker 3 18:01

Kiss babies and shake hands .

Speaker 1 18:03

Well , Mr Rogers . Thank you so much for joining us today . Braden Smith , it's great to have you guys on , and best of luck next week and again , stay in touch with us and let us know what's happening .

Recalls, Airbag Inflators, and EV Technicians

Speaker 1 18:22

good . All right , I have news . You do , I knew , yes , I do . We're going to start this segment of the news with recalls .

Speaker 2 18:32

It's always good , I did those last week , yeah , but they're releasing new ones every day , every day .

Speaker 1 18:39

Bentley Bentega . I know that a lot of our viewers and listeners and followers have those 2017 through 2023 . The fuel supply module may overheat and melt the flange .

Speaker 2 18:52

That's not a good thing for your family event and apparently Stan , go get your truck there's flanges when they catch fire .

Speaker 1 18:59

Just truck emergency release may fail . For those of you that are trying to smuggle people across the border , or trying to , you know , use them for the Jimmy Hoffa switch . That's it on the Kia Optima Optima hybrid and Optima PHEV and the Kia Rio 2016 through 2018 . Left rear axle shaft may break in the Ford F 250 and 350 only only once , and that's it . Yeah , blop , blop , blop , blop , blop , blop .

Speaker 3 19:31

That's a big truck .

Speaker 1 19:33

Front right headlights too bright on the Ford edge for 2023 . Now , how do you do that ? It's too bright . Hey , turn that thing down . You'll wake it up the neighborhood Damage turbocharger oil supply line on the Ford Explorer for 2023 .

Speaker 2 19:50

That's not good .

Speaker 1 19:52

No Pop . Oh , what's that ? Oh , there goes all the oil , pop goes the turbo , that's it . Okay , some stories making news headlines . Now Ram's high performance 1500 TRX will go out of production at the end of this year . It features the 702 horsepower , 650 pound feet of torque and zero to 60 time Record of 4.5 seconds for a truck . The truck cost 100 and 19,620 dollars with shipping . Come on down , I Guess they sold everyone that they made , no doubt .

Speaker 6 20:30

Yes .

Speaker 1 20:31

Wow I .

Speaker 6 20:32

Don't know what them youtubers are gonna do , you know , if they don't have that to tear up .

Speaker 1 20:35

Yeah , okay . The nation's top auto safety regulator on Tuesday said it is determined 52 million airbag inflators made by a company called a RC automotive and Delphi I think they're a former general motor .

Speaker 1 20:53

GM , former GM company , are defective and should be recalled . They haven't recalled them yet . The agency's initial decision affects about 41 million driver and passenger Inflators made by ARC from 2000 to January 2018 and about 11 million driver inflators made by auto . Live acquired Delphi under a licensing agreement with a RC . The inflators are installed in vehicles manufactured by 12 automakers , including Ford , gm , stalantis , hyundai , tesla and Toyota can .

Speaker 3 21:32

I say something on that . Can't you got a letter from Ford Asking for volunteers to bring the cars in so they could look at their airbags and replace them for future R&D ? Another words , you got a defective airbag .

Speaker 2 21:46

Oh , yeah , but it loaded it , so where it's a voluntary , and you know what was bad Delphi said here hold my beer , watch this .

Speaker 3 21:55

There's a little bit of I don't know deceptions , sneakeries , but but , but .

Speaker 2 22:00

But again , there is a reason for them to try and take . You know , you said Kathy's car is ten years old , right ? So there's a reason for them to try and collect a sample of those older vehicles so they can analyze them To see what's going on . And I understand that legit .

Speaker 6 22:16

All right .

Speaker 3 22:16

Why do it in such a format ? We're saying , well , you know , it's like Soft pedaling it to say they want they just they don't , they don't the liability .

Speaker 6 22:25

That's lawyer talk . They don't want to sit there and say you got a bad airbag .

Speaker 1 22:28

I sure would hate to be the technician that has to do that job .

Speaker 3 22:32

Oh here stand back . Last , when I was with Auto Nation running the service department , we had a technician that set one off . He was underneath the dash and it blew and it was like a bomb went off and he , you know , was starly .

Speaker 1 22:47

We've seen the videos online about these guys that play with them .

Speaker 2 22:51

Yeah , I fired them off .

Speaker 1 22:53

But they have a board on top of it . Boom shoots them right up the break their neck and all that .

Speaker 2 22:58

Yeah , I fired them off because back in the back in the day is , you were not allowed when you replaced them under warranty . Gm would ask for them back , but you weren't allowed to send them back hot , you had to deploy them to send them , disable them .

Speaker 2 23:13

Yeah , so we'd set the pop them with a nine-volt battery , two wires and a nine-volt back Boop , you know . But you always wanted to make sure the bag was up and not down , because if the bag was down it shoot a hundred feet in the air . So yeah , I popped them quite a few times .

Speaker 3 23:29

Save them all for Fourth of July and set them off .

Speaker 2 23:31

There you go , actually , I did some for the Fire Department heavy rescue training that goes on out in Katie and Early on . When airbags first came out , I gathered a few of them up from the area and went out there and and blew them off indoors . But I knew I was okay because I had the fire chief was there in the in the room with us and they wanted to see what to expect of an airbag because they they were worried about . You know , when you start cutting a car up , could we deploy one ? I said , oh , absolutely , you could . Said first thing you need to do is cut the battery cables out and then wait about 15 seconds . All of the capacitors were discharged and so , you know , we popped a couple of them indoors for them . Pretty interesting , pretty interesting . It's not hard to do .

Speaker 1 24:17

But you know a Global shortage of technicians and independent repair shops qualified to fix EVs threatens to increase repair and warranty costs for drivers , potentially Undermining upcoming deadlines to cut vehicle curb and evade emissions . From Melonda , melbourne , to Malibu , technician training Organizations , warranty providers and repairers say that independent repair shops will be vital for making EVs affordable Because they are far cheaper than Franchise dealers . In the US , the world's number two auto market after China , ev sales grown . A growth has trailed Europe's , but the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts around 80,000 electrician jobs will be needed annually through 2031 , including technicians to fix EVs or installed EV Chargers . And I'm gonna save , I'm gonna save the UAW talk . Not I'm gonna , I'm gonna do that . Another segment , because it's gonna be huge and the deadline draws near . In September , the 12th is it , and it looks like , at least right now , that the big three in Detroit are gonna go on strike , Yep and it's .

Speaker 1 25:36

It's gonna be bad if that happens . So buy your new car now , because there may not wait , be one later because then the Biden administration says we're gonna keep our Hands off of this , at least for now . You guys work it out . That's what they say . That's what I heard on the radio yesterday . So that's all . That's all I have that is all .

Speaker 1 25:58

that is all I Did want to remind you that we are going to take a quick break right now here on the in-wheel time car talk show and the I heart app . You stay with us . We've got two more hours of the show coming up . You , the original group of loopy tortilla restaurants , will have you telling your family and friends just what the original recipes mean when it comes to the best fajitas in southeast Texas . Founder Stan Holt invites you to visit the original loopy tortilla near I-10 in Highway 6 .
