Welcome to Radio Check with Allie - the brand new mini podcast from Racing Forces designed to connect you to the incredible fan community in our wonderful sport of racing. Hosted by Engines, EVs and Espresso producer Allie Wheeland, this upbeat short-form interview show will highlight diverse and sometimes unexpected members of the motorsport fan community to get at the crux of how racing moves people. In this inaugural episode Allie sits down with Ron, the owner of Nürburgink Tattoo - which, as the name implies, is a permanent fixture of the legendary Nürburgring racetrack - to chat about his experience tattooing the racing fan community. Enjoy, and let us know who you'd like Allie to talk to next!
