While this Memorial Day Weekend didn't have too much karting, it did have quite a bit of racing! And with all racing, there's a lot of talking points to draw from.



TONIGHT -- CALL-IN TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION AT THE NUMBER BELOW FOR SEGMENTS 2 & 3!

+1 (940) 220-8943



SPECIAL GUESTS: INDYCAR Driver Callum ILOTT, Race Factory USA's Race LIBERANTE, and Arrow McLaren SP Competition Director and MPG Motorsports Owner Billy VINCENT



Beyond catching up on news from the past week, this week's KC Happy Hour will focus in on a couple of hot debate topics in motorsports, specifically one point in particular:

- Where should a motorsport series fall in terms of entertainment // spectacle vs. purism // history



The Indy 500 threw a red flag with 5 laps to go to give the race a chance to end under green, albeit taking frontrunner Marcus Ericsson's 3+ second lead away in favor of a 2-lap shootout. NASCAR, on the flipside, has embraced a push towards spectacle when it comes to their racing product over the last two decades, and F1 hasn't modified their race formats all too much beyond Sprint race weekends, but they have definitely leaned into storylines through the media and shows.



What are your thoughts? Join us tonight!
