On this episode of The Dirt Parlor, Don Martin welcomes sprint car star Carson Macedo, fresh off an electrifying fourth-place finish at the Knoxville Nationals. From starting on the front row against the best in the world to the relentless grind of the World of Outlaws tour, Carson takes us inside one of the most demanding weeks in all of racing and the mental and physical toughness it requires to perform at the top.

Carson opens up about a devastating off-season wakeboarding injury that left him with a fractured leg, a plate, and ten screws and how he fought his way back into the car in just six weeks. He talks about the setbacks, the small victories, and the determination to keep chasing wins even when far from 100%. His story is one of grit, resilience, and an unwavering love for the sport.

From the Macedo brothers’ unforgettable back-to-back wins at Fremont and the Brad Doty Classic, to the heated late model rivalry between Bobby Pierce and Jonathan Davenport, and the latest in High Limit and Outlaws action, this episode blends personal triumph, big-race drama, and all the news fans crave. Whether you’re a die-hard dirt track follower or just love a good comeback story, you won’t want to miss this one.
