Throughout the winter, we here at the Sportsman Drag Racing Podcast, hope to bring you the listener a ton of awesome content, we have some really awesome topics/interviews/discussions lined up. Starting here in episode 255, Luke gets to catch up with Jimmy Lewis, the 2021 NHRA Top Sportsman Champion! A wide ranging conversation, from Jimmy’s past, to his current car and the in’s and outs of Top Sportsman racing, not to mention the ABSOLUTELY crazy travel logistics that it took to win this one! Tune in for a great interview.
FYI: The audio gets a bit sketchy a couple times due to cell phone service
With the NHRA & IHRA tours set to kick off in the coming weeks, the 2017 racing season is almost upon us. The guys figure to have months of racing action to talk about soon, so this week they took a departure from the norm to tell some funny and entertaining racing stories. After Luke talks about an opponent bouncing off the wall, then returning to face him the following round, Jed shares his secret to passing tech at his first national event. In addition, they summoned two of the best storytellers they know: 2-time Million Dollar Race winner Gary Williams shares multiple stories from on-track parachute removal to what we believe is a record for most riders in a competition vehicle; and footbrake legend Rodney Finchum weaves a tale that includes rain, fraud protection, multiple emergency vehicles, and an event win. Enjoy!
We are back after a week off, with this year version of the Poddy awards. Best Win of the year, best social media account to follow, and of course, the goat…and GOAT of the 2021 season! Tune in now to hear
After a week off, we’re back! Luke and Jed hit on 8…well kind of 9 talking points about the Great American Guaranteed Million. Its a wide ranging discussion that involves flying timing cones, wrecked T1000’s and even an $80k win! Capped off with a conclusion of NHRA points talks and a couple bad beats. Make sure to stay tuned all the way to the end for a bit of humor!
Luke and Ashley recap the This is Bracket Racing Drivers Series. Jed joins Luke to cover the Summit E.T. National champions, as well as confirmed locks on NHRA Sportsman champions.
After last weeks million drama, Troy Williams asked to come on the show to give his perspective, honest, and to the point. Luke, Jed, and Troy also preview and make picks for the NHRA ET Championships. Luke details some NHRA points changes after Rockingham, and finish out with some more bad beats. A long, interesting, must listen episode.
We thought it was going to be a slow week…we were wrong, very wrong. We have had lots or racers “break the internet” often in good ways, this week we have social media going crazy for not such a good reason. Listen in to hear Luke and Jed’s take on the situation at the Million, a few more NHRA class points chase pictures becoming more clear, and IHRA crowns their World Champions.
Luke and Jed have a huge episode on tap. A ton of racing, all over the country, big bracket racing turnouts, along with Luke racing in Ohio. Of course this time of year, an episode wouldn’t be complete without an in depth update on NHRA points implications. Tune in for another sportsman racing filled episode!
