Hello all, and welcome to episode sixty-six featuring Schaefchen.  A kind, very intelligent personality that called in from the mountains of Austria to talk cars with yours truly.  This guy's a true talent as it comes to wheeling a vehicle through some endearing situations and as I recite on this session's intro, pause what you are doing and head to his IG to look for yourself.  He provides a very unique angle indeed where his specialty is less about the mystique of the car, but more so about the ability along with his abilities.  Given his very unique geography comes some unforgiving snow in the Winters which is taken full advantage of.  This is where his [U.S. exported] Raptor II, R34 GTR V-Spec & Evo V RS come into play at full WRC pace.  The latter of two which are equipped with light pods just to add that chef's kiss.  See, what most don't understand about European motorists is that long distance road travel is more of a household situation than here in the states & this is an attribute that Schaefchen takes seriously.  As a matter of fact, before our call today he was on multi-hour journey back from the track where he pushed his MKIV Supra to the limits along with some seat time in his E90 M3.  He's a driver, a traveller and an enjoyer of long-term automotive ownership with a special interest in being connected to the car.  Creating memories with his machines, his squad.  It's worth mentioning the guy has a special eye in capturing these moments, which undoubtedly you will witness for yourself.  This is a lovely episode, and very inciteful for us Yankees.  Tune in, and enjoy. 

Also, a special thanks to the man himself as our 6-hour time difference required him calling in late.  Along with a special thanks to my man David aka @d_t_a_f (Ep. #049) for making the connection.  Cheers!
