In celebration of 60 years of TransAM racing, and the inaugural class of Hall of Famers at Sebring in 2025; we wanted to take you back to 2015 when the IMRRC hosted a panel of notable figures in TransAm’s history.

Folks like Chuck Cantwell, Lee Dykstra, Don Cox, John 'Woody' Woodard, Tommy Kendall, Butch Leitzinger were hosted by Judy Stropus - recapping the first 50 years of the series.

This panel covers the history and development of Trans Am racing, their personal experiences, stories of innovation and trickery in racing, and the evolution of race car technology. They also reflect on memorable races, provide insights into their careers, and discuss the competitive spirit and changes in this unique variant of Road Racing. Featuring a live audience Q&A, they also touch upon the current state of Trans Am compared to its earlier days.

This episode was originally recorded in 2016 at Watkins Glen International and has been remastered for this podcast.
