This episode isn't catalyzed by a specific incident but actually from a discussion with my 6 year old while he was playing with his hot wheels. 

In this week's Daily Driver I want to talk about the Victim Mindset and how we can flip the script to empower ourselves. 

For this week's Daily Driver I wanted to read from my column that I pen for NHRA National Dragster called The Science of Winning. My latest contribution is titled It's About Time and that is what I wanted to share today with you. 

ELITE Members know, the “off” season is a busy season! A big part of that within ELITE is our offseason practice league. In this episode I wanted to talk about my personal journey with the practice league and how it translated in 2024 and now into 2025 on the track. 

In this episode of the Daily Driver, I am joined by regular ThisIsBracketRacing ELITE guest instructor, former World NHRA Champion, multi-time division and track Champion, Mikie Sturgill. I wanted to talk with Mikie about strategic flexibility and in particular how he got to the level he's at in that flexibility. 

Learning from each and every run is important. Of course in our TIBR Jr logbook we track all of the typical data but then we ask 5 specific questions each and every run. And they aren't just for Jr drivers or parents. These are core principles to making us ALL better. 

I know, it's way to early for this but in today's episode I wanted to look at the 2025 Lucas Oil Chase. Let's nerd out! 

This week I am joined by my co-instructor in ThisIsBracketRacing ELITE and accomplished racer Justin Lamb. Justin has proven capable of winning in just about anything. So I asked him, why Stock & Super Stock?

On last week’s show, I detailed what I believe to be our responsibility as racers: to our sport, and more directly to a successful day at the track.

This week, I want look at where do our responsibilities as a racer end and the responsibilities of the race track, race director, track operator, or race promotor begin.

I’ve been a racer for more than 30 years. In a perfect union, racer and race track work together in a sort of harmonious partnership. As a racer, what is our responsibility at the track?
