On episode 216 of Inside the SCCA presented by RaceSchool.com, we take a look at what it takes to make driving race cars a career. Cameron Parsons is my guest and we talk about the ups and downs of being a professional race car driver. It sounds romantic but there are remarkably few people who make their living exclusively behind the wheel. Most have side hustles, coach other drivers, and find other ways to make ends meet. Cameron has managed to keep himself behind the wheel, run his own teams, and work in the industry that keeps him in contact with people that can write checks. It's an eye opening, don't miss discussion. Partners - A big thank you to our partners who help make Inside the SCCA possible!FastLane ⁠RaceSchool.com ⁠ |  FastLane is one of California's top SCCA accredited racing schools that offers drivers of all skill levels the best and most fun way to learn competitive track driving.

Arshia Akhtar, born in Pakistan and grew up in Saudi Arabia, it's believed Arshia is the first female Pakistani race car driver. We talk about becoming a race car driver from a part of the world where, until recently, women couldn't even drive. She fills us in on her journey starting out in racing and with the SCCA, and how the club works hard to give new members the full club experience. We also talk about the amazing work she does off track… and how it relates to my mom. You can't help but like Arshia's spirit and drive to be successful.

On episode 211 of Inside the SCCA presented by RaceSchool.com, we connect Ted Burns. Ted is a Formula F driver and he is among a group of people working to grow the class. Back in the day Formula Ford was crazy popular. Over the years that popularity has diminished in the US. That was reflected in SCCA's decision to change the way the small open wheel classes qualified for the Runoffs. It was a wake-up call -- and a call to action -- for drivers in those classes. Now there's a renewed urgency to bring it back to the popularity it once had. We'll talk with Ted about the work that's underway and the plans for this year and beyond.
