Conversations - Chance Crum

When you aren't from a traditional dirt racing hot bed it can be difficult to get noticed on the national scene. You've got to win a lot, and shine on those rare opportunities you do get to race in front of important people. My guest this time on the show has done just that. Chance Crum is a sprint car and midget racer from the state of Washington who's won a ton on the west coast, and in 2021 got the opportunity to run at the Chili Bowl for Clauson Marshall with the Tony Elliott Foundation. He'...

My guest this time on the show is about to start her rookie campaign with the IRA Sprint Car Series, and she's going to do it while still going to college and working anywhere from 20 to 40 hours per week. When you want something bad enough, you find a way, and Bailey Goldesberry is a perfect example of that struggle that many in dirt racing find themselves in. How do you earn a living, continue to grow as a human, but still go do that thing you love. In her case, it's driving 410 sprint cars. S...

Conversations - Tanner Holmes

My guest this week is a 17 year old racer from Oregon who recently made his 410 sprint car debut at the Wild Wing Shootout in Arizona. It's wild to think that even at 17, Tanner Holmes already has 11 years experience behind the wheel, between Outlaw karts and sprint cars, and that he's been successful at all levels. He joins me this week to talk about becoming the winningest driver in the history of Red Bluff Outlaws in California, getting sprint car experience on the west coast, making his 410 ...
