Rossi's enjoying a well earned break, but Hinch and Thim recap Road America, and talk about where the season stands, now. Then, author (and brother of Hinch), Christopher Hinchcliffe joins the show to talk about the application of rules in F1, and dives in a discussion about what the role of the stewards should be, and how rules should be applied. We dive into the weeds a bit on this one, so we hope the real racing fans will enjoy it!

Hinch is taking a much needed, mid-season, vacation, so Alex and Thim check in from Indianapolis. A lot has happened since we last talked, so we recap the Indy 500, both Detroit races, and Texas. A lot of people are curious about what it takes for a driver to stay in shape to race in IndyCar, so we sat down with PitFit's own, Jim Leo to go into the methods behind the madness. Hope you enjoy!

Our 2nd annual Carb Day Live Show! We sat down at the Honda Fan Zone, in the in-field at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway! First, Chris Perkins is in the medical field, and won the chance to join us on the podcast at Hinch's Stop and Go Foundation Charity Auction, which was great for us, because he's an awesome guest! Next up, we have the star of bump day, Kyle Kaiser, giving his take on that storybook run. During the Kaiser interview, NBC jumped on stage, and broke in during their live "NASCAR America" live broadcast. Then, we have legendary snowboarder and all-around-personality, Dingo, for another game of Battle Royale.

The guys are back together again (in the same location this time)! They talk about Rossi's experiences living as Hinch, then they get into the race recap for the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach. After that, the guys are joined by ESPN's Sam Alipour, to catch up on their time on Hang Time, and his experiences coming up as a premiere sports journalist, who doesn't like sports, and never studied journalism. Enjoy!

Bryan Herta comes on Off Track to talk about his sons surprising win at COTA, as well as his time coming up as a driver, including the front row view he got on Mario Andretti and Nigel Mansell's rivalry. Then the guys dive into Thim's absolute favorite flight ever. Please excuse the audio, while our guys are fantastic drivers, they're just absolute garbage at recording audio remotely.

Rossi is prepping for Sebring, but Hinch is on vacation with Marco Andretti and Robbie Wickens so Thim calls in for a chat with Robbie {Marco's napping}, and Thim is asking the important questions. (00:01 - 04:03). Not doing a breakdown of this conversation, Hinch and Robbie talk about the realities of Robbie's life post-injury, his recovery, his plans for the future, and what they can both relate to having gone through serious accidents, plus we do a shameless plug for Conor Daly and Jim Ayello's new podcast {link below ;-) } so listen without the cliffnotes (04:04 - 30:45). Thim plugs another podcast he went on about being a single father {Mother F***ers: A Parenting Podcast!} (30:46-31:24) Credits (31:25 - 32:12).

The guys enjoy their breakfast, and a distinct lack of Thim, who is missing this week {spoiler alert, he's asleep/hungover} (00:01 - 02:40). The guys talk about Thim's unexpected skills at Monopoly, and other weird jobs you can get out there (02:41 - 10:00).

The guys talk about what's going on outside of racing, and James has some important wedding news for Alex (22:29 - 29:07). Outro and credits (29:08 - 29:58).
