A street-legal formula car sounds like internet nonsense.
Until you meet Caleb Borgstrom.
In this episode of Full Throttle Talk, Tim Harris sits down with one of the founders of RYN Motors to tear apart one of the most unreasonable automotive ideas in years — and why it might actually work.
This isn’t a concept render.
This isn’t a YouTube kit car.
This is a real, engineered, road-registrable, formula-style machine built by someone who got tired of being told, “That’s impossible.”
In this episode, we get into the uncomfortable questions:
Why Caleb refused to accept that formula cars should be track-only
The exact moment this went from a sketch to “we’re actually building this”
Chassis, suspension, engine, and gearbox decisions nobody agrees on
The hardest engineering and regulatory problems — and how they reshaped the car
Lap times vs. reliability vs. drivability (something always loses)
What “street legal” really means in the real world
Who should absolutely NOT buy this car
Pricing, customization limits, delivery reality, and long-term support
This conversation isn’t marketing fluff.
It’s about tradeoffs, consequences, and obsession — the stuff most founders won’t say out loud.
If you’re tired of:
Overweight supercars
Track toys that can’t survive real use
“Driver’s cars” built by committees
…this episode is for you.
