Podcasts about IMSA

Picture it: Your scrappy little pro race team has a rough 2024. The next year, out of nowhere, you win Daytona. Then the whole gang takes its first trip to Le Mans and lands a killer finish.The rest of Jeff Braun's 2025 IMSA season was, to quote Jeff, “not that.”This one's a doozy: First, we've got INTC co-host Jeff sharing what he learned in IMSA this year. (Jeff helps run a Corvette in the GTD class, remember.) Second, we've got Sam, who made way too much coffee on tape day. He's a little rapid-fire yappy here, but hey, we're all captives to fate, fly on free bird, fútbol/racing podshow is life, right?Trophies rarely teach you something. But a long, tough season in pro racing just might.This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. We call this format "What I've Learned."This episode was produced by Sam Smith.**Who We Are + Spicy Merch:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.ItsNotTheCar.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**SUPPORT INTC:Contribute on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/notthecar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?

Sujet régulièrement mis sur la table par plusieurs constructeurs depuis plusieurs semaines, la convergence technique en Hypercar, entre LMH et LMDh, est un débat qui anime le paddock WEC et IMSA. Face aux demandes répétées de certains concurrents, qui poussent pour une seule règlementation technique qui présiderait à la catégorie reine, les instances dirigeantes doivent résoudre une équation complexe. Alors convergence, possible ou pas ?

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!Denny Hamlin takes the win at Gateway. He locks himself into the next round of the playoffs.WEC had its Lone Star Le Mans weekend at COTA and it was a wet one! Multiple drivers were going off and it tested and pushed everyone to their limits. The end of the race came down to a tire strategy of whether to go onto dry tires or stick with the wets. In Hypercar, Porsche won the race while staying on wets for the entirety. In GT3, McLaren took the win while switching to dry tires.F1 went to the temple of speed this past weekend, Monza, where Verstappen dominated Qualifying and the Race. The talk of the race though was a message delivered from the McLaren pit wall to instruct Piastri to "let Lando by". We discuss the situation and give our thoughts on McLaren's handling of their drivers during not only this race but this season.Coming up this weekend: NASCAR is at Bristol, Supercars at The Bend, and MotoGP is in Misano.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!F1 is back from its summer break and McLaren is still dominant! However, a mechanical failure leads to Norris retiring which is a big swing in the championship towards Piastri's favor as he now has a grand prix weekend's worth of points ahead of Norris.IndyCar wrapped its season up this Labor Day weekend in Nashville with a decently entertaining race that saw Josef Newgarden get his first and only win of the season which ends the nightmare of a season for Team Penske on a good note. It's been only a couple of days since the final race and silly season has begun with Will Power announcing he will not continue with Team Penske for 2026 and neither will Rinus Veekay at Dale Coyne Racing. The rumor is David Malukas will replace Will Power at Penske and Rinus Veekay will take Malukas' spot at AJ Foyt. Looking up and down the rest of the field, it seems like Will Power could move to Andretti as there is more chatter about Colton Herta making a move to F2 which would free up the #26 Andretti car.Chase Briscoe wins at Darlington which secures him into the next round of the playoffs.Coming up this weekend: WEC at COTA, F1 at Monza, and MotoGP at Barcelona.

The INTC gang is on a short break, so we're dishing up an encore presentation of some of our favorite stories! This episode originally aired in April of 2024.***Once, in the 1990s, an Italian carmaker hadn't gone sports-car racing in 20 years. Maybe they were too busy figuring out new ways to make a 348 catch fire or something. Then some influential folks made a few expressive hand gestures and the Italians agreed to do it—but just this once, and then you gotta vaffanculo, alright?Hold onto your butts: Today, we tell the story of the Ferrari 333 SP, the last purpose-built Ferrari prototype before the Le Mans Hypercar they're running now.Ross raced one of these flying pasta-saucers in IMSA.

Send us a textTatiana Calderón takes us on a high-speed journey through her remarkable racing career that spans continents, championships, and countless barriers broken. The Colombian driver opens up about discovering her passion at just nine years old, when a five-minute ticket at a rental go-kart track sparked a lifelong love affair with speed and adrenaline.What unfolds is a story of extraordinary determination as Tatiana left her homeland at 17 to chase her Formula 1 dreams, first in the United States and later in Europe. Perhaps most touching is how motorsport transformed her relationship with her sister – seven years her senior – from distant siblings to inseparable partners, with her sister eventually becoming her manager and traveling companion through the racing world.Tatiana's racing credentials are impressive – competing in Formula 3 alongside future F1 champions like Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, testing in Formula 1, racing in Japan's Super Formula, making IndyCar appearances, tackling the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, and currently piloting a Ford Mustang in IMSA's GTD category. But beyond the race results lies a more profound narrative about identity and belonging in motorsport."I think, as a woman, we are so different and it's beautiful to be different," Tatiana reflects, revealing how she initially tried to change her nature to fit into the male-dominated environment before realizing that embracing differences is the path forward. This evolution in thinking represents the heart of her advocacy for women in racing – creating environments where women can compete equally without changing who they are.Whether you're a dedicated racing fan or simply appreciate stories of perseverance and passion, Tatiana's journey offers inspiration and perspective on what it takes to succeed against the odds. Follow her current racing season in the IMSA WeatherTech Championship and connect with her on Instagram @tatacalde7, where she personally responds to messages from aspiring racers seeking guidance.Support the showFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/womensmotorsportsnetworkandpodcast INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/womensmotorsportsnetwork/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ TIKTOK: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ X: https://x.com/IWMANation FACEBOOK Personal Page: https://www.facebook.com/melinda.ann.russell

DwD 0715:  What Eyes Up Can Mean When at the track you will often hear "keep your eyes up" as a magical solution to everything.  But what does that mean?  What are they really saying or trying to say.  After a recent discussion by TomO and DJ on their podcast, we decided to go through a vision exercise and see what Ben does and compare it to what DJ and Tom do.  Special thanks go out to the the Lizard Brains podcast for this episode of DwD, always a great listen.  Did we miss something?  Please let us know at GarageHeroesInTraining@Gmail.com.

On this week's Double Stint, Jonathan Grace and John Dagys catch up on the weekend's action before diving into the latest news headlines, answer a listener question and preview this weekend's IMSA and WEC action.

In our latest “Dinner Bites,” we put out another brief episode with more tales from Patrick Long, who was very involved in the filming of select scenes in the new F1 Movie. Debuting this weekend, F1 The Movie will feature a small storyline with IMSA, and our boy Pat was a big part of it.
