How Do They Live The Dream Life?
This episode is directed to answering a question that came across Facebook that went semi-viral and is going to be part of a mini series going forward here on the Daily Driver. In a nutshell the post was asking about how people are racing frequently and how they can afford to do it. Let’s look […]
Choosing Optimism
If you’ve read my ramblings here for any length of time, you’ve probably noticed a theme. Although Phil, Kevin, and the ND staff essentially give me carte blanche – the freedom to write about anything I see fit – I tend to revert back to my core beliefs often. When it comes to competition, when […]
Gratitude
This episode was one that I couldn’t wait to record and it’s all about gratitude. Take a ride with me as we start back at my first Spring Fling Million win and end with the second win focusing on gratitude.
The Biggest Key to Success
In this episode, we’re going to do something a little different. I’m going to read my latest column on Confidence from The Science of Winning. If you like this format, let us know!
Nerves
Being nervous doesn’t mean you are unprepared or uncertain. It is possible to be both confident and nervous. Embrace the nerves.

Last episode we talked about memory and focused on the things we want/need to remember. On this episode, let’s explore the things that we might be better served to forget!
Memory (Part 1)

Romanticizing History
When we look back retrospectively, the sportsman racer whose name will be forever attached to a season for his or her dominance is often obvious. This is a subject that Jared Pennington and I would tackle at the end of each season on the Sportsman Drag Racing Podcast. In 2023, the decision was the source […]
