This week on Chasin’ the Racin’, we’re joined in the studio by none other than OMG & WTF Racing team owner, Alan Gardner. After the explosive OMG & WTF news that dropped on April 1st, rumours have been swirling — and now, Alan is here to set the record straight.  In this no-holds-barred episode, Alan opens up about everything:  

• The truth behind his past conviction
• Speculation around the financial health of his businesses 
• The sudden sponsor withdrawal that shook the team 
• And his ambitious plans for the 2025 season, including the full lowdown on all five of his riders  Whether you’ve been following the drama on Facebook forums or just want the facts from the source, this episode gives Alan the mic to share his side of the story — candid, unfiltered, and in his own words.  

We hope this clears the air and reminds everyone to take those online rumours with a big ol’ pinch of salt.  Tune in and hear it all for yourself — only on Chasin’ the Racin’.
