Great love for the mechanics and the speed is expressed in both shows. The protagonists have some level of tunnel vision in the sense that they can't think about anything else that driving fast. BBR is very grounded while Bobby is way more experimental. BBR films races with great accuracy, in an almost journalistic way sometimes, while Bobby is more focused on impressions, atmosphere (more artsy as well). Both shows deal with litteral heat, it's a hot summer in Bobby's garage and the stamina race in BBR leaves all characters sweating for hours.
Eventually both protagonists have to face the consequences of their need for speed.
