SpeedFreaks: Biggest Motorsports Show On The Planet

1996 & 1997 NASCAR Busch Series Champion Randy LaJoie made NASCAR's top 75 Driver's of All-Time list. But he might be better known for his safety products, especially his safety seats - The Joie of Seating - AND being the father of racers Casey and Corey LaJoie. LaJoie is happy with either label but he might be most proud of his championships, his inclusion in the All-Time list and his safety seats that are saving lives on racetracks all over the world.

2015 Supercross 250cc Rookie of the Year Aaron Plessinger might be known for his singing but he's becoming a force in the Supercross races where he finished fifth Saturday in San Francisco. The track was a mud bowl but Plessinger forced his Red Bull KTM through the elements to finish behind teammate Chase Sexton who won the final. But, for the Freaks, Plessinger is a first class show. Listen...

AMA Arenacross Rider Aaron Siminoe made his debut in The Freak Nation Sunday night on the recommendation he's be as wild as The Freaks for the appearance. Well, he fit right in!

That comes when he puts on his helmet, sometimes when the helmet goes on away from the track. Listen...

2023 MHRA Top Alcohol Dragster Champion Julie Nataas visited with The Freaks at the PRI Show in Indianapolis. Julie is still getting used to the idea of being a drag racing champion.

But Nataas is building a career and agrees some changes might be needed in her sport. Listen...

2020 & 2022 AMA Supercross Champion Eli Tomac has been a dominate rider in Supercross and Motocross since her first AMA title in 2013. Rejoining the sport after rehabbing his injury is his number one goal at the moment, though. That, and chasing the hottest rider in his sport: Jett Lawrence. He'll be a tough comeback but if anyone can pull it off, Eli Tomac tops the list. Listen...

TransAm TA2 Driver Adrian Wloskowski had great stories to share while visiting with The Freaks at the PRI Show in Indianapolis.

Wloskowski is building a racing career while he's building his business. He's having success at both. Listen...

In fact, even that brought an emotional response from Leah: an appeal to the NHRA. Listen...
