This week on Late to Grid, we sit down with Jon Krolewicz to dive into his incredible motorsports journey. He shares how a third-grade book report on the Indy 500 sparked a lifelong passion , and how a chance meeting with a pro driver his own size transformed his dream into a plan.

Jon offers practical wisdom for anyone looking to get started or level up their game. He reveals the two biggest lessons he learned from karting: the importance of budgeting and how to harness your fear. Jon also talks about his "toy job" working at Firestone to fund his racing and a pivotal sponsorship story that taught him to think bigger.

Beyond the track, Jon explains how his current role with the SCCA is focused on making racing more accessible, emphasizing that anyone can find their joy in the sport, whether it’s behind the wheel or in the paddock.
