WE'RE BACK! And, with another HIGHLY ANTICIPATED episode with yet another legend of ATV racing! Mike Walsh of Walsh Race Craft is connected to so much ATV racing history it’s insane! Today he’s most known as the face of the family business but, as you’ll learn, there is SO much more to Mike Walsh and his story. Before becoming what we know Walsh Race Craft as today, Mike was a successful pro in his own right. Thanks to his blended passions for ATVs and engineering, and under the tutelage of his late father, Mike organically found himself thrust into the birth of Walsh Race Craft. Listen as he tells the story of going from pro racer, to building world-class quads for his competition while lining up against them, and eventually working with factory teams, fielding teams of his own, being named Mechanic of the Year, and SO MUCH MORE. The story you are about to hear is absolutely EPIC! So epic, in fact, that we had to make this a two-parter – and you’re going to love every second of it right here on the Digging Deep ATVMX Podcast. As always, thanks for DIGGING DEEP with us. Enjoy!

WE'RE BACK! And with yet another legend on this week’s episode of the Digging Deep ATVMX Podcast! 1997 ATV Pro GNC National Champion, Shane Hitt, is one of the greatest ATV racers of all time. On this episode, you'll hear the incredible story of his legendary career, which eventually results in Shane becoming one of the most prolific TT racers ever (but don't get it twisted, “GNC Champion” means Shane Hitt can do it all). From getting his first utility quad as a boy in West Virginia, to honing his skills dodging trees, winning races, titles, and the most prestigious championship on the planet, developing Honda's "new" TRX450R, riding for multiple factory teams, helping manage the Factory KTM ATV Team, and more – throughout it all, Shane never lost the love for the sport that he possessed as a boy...and, to this day, you can still hear it in his voice. This is another conversation littered with ATV racing history and stories that you’ve never heard before involving the likes of Timmy Farr, Mark Baldwin, Wayne Meridian, and more! We are proud to give legends like Shane Hitt a platform to tell his ATV racing story, and we're proud to bring this unrivaled content to our listeners. As always, thanks for DIGGING DEEP with us.

WE'RE BACK! And with the second half of our highly anticipated episode with ATV racing legend Kory Ellis! As we previously stated, the history of ATV racing cannot be told without the inclusion of Kory Ellis. You already heard Kory talk about pioneering the four-stroke hybrid era, and years later he kickstarted another era in ATV racing when he debuted Yamaha's "new" YFZ450 in late 2003 — this is where we pick up with Kory Ellis' story on this episode. Part 1 was an ATV racing history lesson, and Part 2 is no different! Listen as Kory talks about things you may remember, like his early days aboard the "new" YFZ and transitioning from competitor to Suzuki team manager, and things you probably don't know, like shooting a commercial for a manufacturer he never rode for, and MUCH more! From 2003 to present day, we cover ATV racing to the nth degree in Part 2 of our conversation with Kory Ellis right here on the Digging Deep ATVMX Podcast! As always, thanks for DIGGING DEEP with us!

WE'RE BACK! And with one of our most highly anticipated episodes to date! Back in February 2020, we sat down with ATV racing legend – John Natalie. “The Ironman” has always put his fans first, and for this conversation it was no different. While at the hospital with a sick kiddo, in typical Natalie fashion, John still wanted to follow through with the interview as scheduled. When we listened back following the conversation, we truly didn’t think the audio was salvageable — but after a lot of time spent and extensive editing, we finally feel comfortable presenting this conversation to our loyal listeners. SO, after anticipation swelled for more than a year and a half, we give you John Natalie on the Digging Deep ATVMX Podcast! As always, thanks for DIGGING DEEP with us! Enjoy!
