On this episode of The Local Yokel’s Podcast, host Neil Colley sits down with Ricky and Michael Neal of Neal Racing—the father-son BB/FC team from North Mississippi making waves on the national funny car circuit. Together, they dive into their journey from Ricky’s early days turning wrenches to Michael’s first taste of competition through BMX racing. The Neals open up about the intense time and financial commitment it takes to run a competitive funny car program, the unwavering family support behind the scenes, and the tight-knit camaraderie within the racing community. They also break down horsepower classes, track distances, and the importance of giving fans—especially kids—real access to the sport. The episode wraps with heartfelt thanks to the sponsors who keep Neal Racing on the road and in the fight.
