In some way, modern cars have lost a bit of the attractive elements that classic cars have. Clinton has been a British car enthusiast from his childhood, and will go as far as to say that he is a specialist in classic car oil leaks. He has built and run a flourish business grounded on mutual love for classic cars, with preference for the British of course. We speak about what makes them so desirable, and how the classic car market will survive in future years. Here is what we spoke about: 00:00 Introduction to Clinton 08:33 How cars have lost their flavour 14:21 Laude Classic Cars 23:59 The Best part of his job 26:23 Jaguar XJS Thundercat 32:56 Classic car market: SA vs oversees 36:07 Does South Africa lack the skills to work on classic cars 40:32 Will classic cars stay relevant in future years 45:01 Clinton's favourite cars over the years 49:26 Modern supercars are too quick 52:57 Any car, Any road

I first have to apologise for the extreme bias towards Porsche in this episode, but since I am shooting with Lourens Bester, the Porsche club Cape Town President, I feel it is fitting. We have a conversation regarding his career, but the majority of the podcast is about the inner workings of an official car club, the type of petrol heads within them, and the various legendary Porsche's of the past years. Here is what we spoke about: 00:00 Introduction 01:00 Lourens' history with cars 10:39 Porsche club - then and now 23:17 How the Cayenne and Macan saved Porsche 29:06 Popular vs non-popular Porsches 50:30 Lourens' dream 3 car garage For any rants or enquiries: overrunbrand@gmail.com We would love to engage with you on our socials!

The second iteration of a very fun and light-hearted series. In this conversation with a car idiot, we have Ruan Lubbe… a non-car guy. We ask him some questions, try to answer the questions for him and generally just try to find out what his views on cars are, as a normal (non petrolhead) person.

It seems like there is a trend with Martin’s friends. The common denominator: They all like Porsches. In episode 3 of this (slower) season, Willis Marais hits the mic again as the conversation leads to a long chat about sportscars – from the pinnacle (GT3) to the simpler ones (Elise). We also have an electric chat regarding Polestar, the electric Volvo offspring, and the common themes we see with new electric cars popping out everywhere. 00:00 Introduction 05:12 What’s up this episode 05:48 Porsche GT3 testing 14:43 Favourite of all GT3’s? 21:56 Death of Lotus Elise 29:22 Polestar For any rants or enquiries: overrunbrand@gmail.com We would love to engage with you on our socials!

Your first car is one of the most important decisions and memorable moments in your life. It’s your ticket to freedom; to independence. But what did that decision look like in the 1980’s? In this episode, I explore the best of the bunch in the 1980’s – the choices that kept parents, students and young adults up at night.
Firstly, I have to apologise for the compromises in quality in the sound and video. A few things went wrong on the day of filming, but we still had so much fun! Brent is a real car guy. He races in the GTI challenge, writes for Cars.co.za and just has such a passion for cars and the people around him. We explore his past and passion, racing in South Africa and car culture in general. For any rants or enquiries: overrunbrand@gmail.com We would love to engage with you on our socials!

“Ferrarista” is probably one of the words best describing Carlo Viglietti. A man that has been in and around Ferrari’s his whole life - working on them, selling them and driving them. He has had the full Maranello experience and continues to live the prancing horse dream at his workshop in Cape Town. We speak about carburetors, going around corners without traction control, and also what is wrong with Lamborghinis (obviously). Here are some of the highlights of the podcast: 00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:45 What is wrong with Lamborghinis? 00:01:36 Introduction to Carlo 00:11:06 Working with Ferrari as a company? 00:15:54 Carlo's thoughts on the current Ferrari line-up 00:20:02 Carlo's best driving experiences 00:22:05 The difference between a Ferrari F1 and Road car 00:33:09 Ferrari Piloti driver courses 00:38:12 What does a bike offer that a car doesn't? 00:39:30 What is Carlo Viglietti Motors? 00:41:53 Ferrari 308 Rebuild 00:46:05 Ferrari Daytona Restoration 00:55:33 How long does a full restoration take?

COVID brought about many crazy ideas. For Johan, he decided to ordain the Porsche 996-generation 911 the “next classic 911” and make road-going, all-purpose safari Porsche’s out of them. Pretty wild! Besides his endeavours with Safariprojek, he’s also had an itch for racing his whole life. Currently, he’s satisfying the desire by racing Dakar trucks. He is doing it all!

A name that doesn’t need introducing in the South African racing scene, and a name you would have heard a lot about over the past weekend at Simola Hillclimb, racing with his B19 Chevron and heavily-modified GTR called “Sheriff”. His family is well-known in the mining industry, but also for their racing, with Franco being part of a family of racers. He has stories upon stories to tell, including racing F40’s around on Italy’s mountain roads, and how he is rebuilding the very Mustang that almost caused his death. Here are some of the highlights of the podcast: 00:00:00 Introduction 00:05:43 How did you passion come to be 00:08:25 The choice between motorsport and other ambitions 00:12:05 Knowing what you know now, would you have gone full-time motorsport? 00:16:06 Do you get a thrill from cars outside of motorsport? 00:19:41 Classic car tour experiences 00:22:00 Cape 1000 00:25:03 Most precious cars 00:25:39 300SL story 00:30:41 F40 00:35:00 Car culture in Italy 00:36:16 Race cars owned and driven 00:36:41 B19 Chevron 00:38:41 B26 Chevron 00:39:03 '65 fastback 00:39:11 Mustang Crash 00:40:03 Worklife vs Motorsport 00:43:13 Racing successes 00:46:08 Is the body still up for racing? 00:50:10 Project cars 00:53:33 Muscle Cars 00:54:27 Restomods 00:56:27 One road one car 00:57:03 250 SWB Instagram: Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ontheoverrun Linktree: https://linktr.ee/overrun
It’s definitely not an everyday thing for a 23-year-old to be driving around in Porsche’s for a living, but that is this man’s reality. His name is Andrew Rackstraw and he’s a talented and acclaimed young racing driver from South Africa, currently making his way up the ranks in the Porsche Cup Great Britain. He started his carting journey in his early teens and has already racked up some big SA championships. This man is going places, and in this podcast I find out where.
