Listen Later

Last week race fans had the opportunity to see IndyCars on track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time in 2025, and Conor Daly turned in impressive results during both days of the Open Test. He joins co-host Chase Holden to discuss what he and the Juncos Hollinger Team learned during their time in the IMS paddock and how the hybrid system performed its first time out at the legendary oval circuit. Conor explains why he thinks Team Penske will once again be in the running for the front row sweep, and how the littlest details matter when it comes to superspeedway racing. The guys also look ahead to this weekend’s race in Barber and make some podium picks for Sunday.

IndyCar Youtuber David Land joins the show to chat about the current state of the IndyCar Series and what social media content creators like himself can do to help drive the sport to the next level. David talks about how there currently aren't many Youtubers who concentrate solely on IndyCar, and how more creators with a similar output would be useful to bringing in new audiences. The guys talk about the current manufacturers in IndyCar and what can be done to attract new interest from other OEMs, including efforts to make the cars more of a focal point for the series. The interview also tackles the tough topic of negativity surrounding the series and what can be done to help curb bad publicity on social media, including changes to the schedule and less down time between events.
