This week we’re joined by veteran driver Luke McGrew, a name well-known across Gridlife for his years behind the wheel of everything from Vipers to Corvettes. Luke takes us through his racing journey — from BMX bikes and RC cars to battling for championships in Time Attack and GLTC.
We talk about the evolution of driver skill, what it takes to build and tune a competitive car, and how seat time beats shortcuts every time. Luke shares stories from early track days, learning through trial and error, rally school adventures, and how sim racing really stacks up against the real thing.
It’s a deep dive into the mindset of a grassroots racer — touching on data sharing, the balance between driving and engineering, and why success in motorsport is as much about community as competition.
