I'm your host, Guy Robertson, and today's episode is a ride on the wild side. We're talking about fear.

Today, I'll take you through five of the most terrifying turns in the sim, break down why they're so hard, where they are on track, and how to build the confidence to conquer them. Whether you're a seasoned iRacer or fresh on your license, these corners demand your respect—and today, you'll learn how to earn theirs.But that's not all.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with one of the most polarizing figures in the NASCAR Cup garage, Carson Hocevar, on this week's episode of the Dale Jr. Download. Carson has become known for his unique approach to Cup stardom, be it weird hats or streaming on iRacing during rain delays. He fills Dale in on what drives this approach, specifically how he managed to get an iRacing rig onto the Spire Motorsports hauler, and how he has even gone into the garage after hours to sim race. Dale and Carson discuss social media content and their respective styles of creation. Carson recently came into hot water for comments he made on a stream surrounding the NASCAR trip to Mexico City. The guys discuss Carson's growth from the incident and how this is part of the process of growing up in the spotlight.Carson talks about his path to the Cup Series, which began at home in Michigan in the quarter midget division. He explains that through help from former NASCAR driver Johnny Benson, he found his way into the late model world, and eventually landed a ride with Niece Motorsports in the Truck Series. Dale and Carson discuss his time at Spire Motorsports and how he seems to be helping the team elevate to the next level, as he has found himself running at the front this season in contention for wins. The interview also covers some of Carson's on-track incidents, learning to rein in his aggression, and his social life amongst other race drivers Arby's: Arby's Cheesesteak is Here!

Will Brown, the reigning Australian Supercars champion, makes his NASCAR return this weekend on the streets of Chicago in a third entry for Kaulig Racing. It's a course Brown has never competed, so he explains the work he's done in the simulator to prepare; simulators not being a tool for Supercars drivers; thoughts on the course in Chicago based on what he's learned in the simulator and seen otherwise; comparison of the Supercars to the Next Gen car; what he's like on iRacing and why he's in disguise; his tailgating experience in Atlanta; takeaways from the NASCAR experience; doing a Vlog; why he's not used to running a visor in NASCAR; who else he'd like to see try NASCAR and from NASCAR try Supercars; how things are going for him in Supercars; being the guy who took SVG's seat after his departure; making the decision to take the seat; his sales pitch for fans to watch Australian Supercars racing.  Original music created by Tony Monge. Follow me here: https://linktr.ee/kellycrandall  PRE-ORDER: NASCAR Race Day Eats https://insighteditions.com/products/nascar-race-day-eats

Microsoft hat über 9000 Menschen entlassen. Die Gründe dafür sind diskutabel, deswegen werden sie im Brunch von Manu, Michi und Basti auf ihre Validität überprüft. Generell wird der Status Quo der Marke Xbox diskutiert, einige abgegbrochene Spieleentwicklungen gab es nämlich obendrein: Das Perfect Dark Reboot oder Rares Everwild werden nicht erscheinen. Bei den Spielen hat Manu StarVaders mitgebracht. Basti war auf einem Pragmata-Preview-Event und Michi erzählt vom hohen Leistungsdruck in der virtuellen Formel 1 bei iRacing.

In this episode of the Lone Road iRacers Podcast, we're diving into a series that's become my proving ground: the Production Car Challenge. Driving the Mazda MX-5 Cup this season, I've gained over 300 iRating, not by being the fastest, but by staying smart—and staying clean. But just when I thought I had it mastered, iRacing threw in a curveball: rain. Late-race showers, shifting grip, and chaos in every corner. Let's break down why this combination of momentum racing and unpredictable weather is one of the best experiences iRacing has to offer.Our second subject on todays podcast, we're taking a deep dive into one of the most extreme, misunderstood, and underutilized combinations in sim racing: Monza with the Oval configuration. It's fast, it's furious, and it's a time capsule of motorsport history that most drivers skip over without ever giving it a second thought. But why does Monza have an oval at all? And how does it fit with the more commonly used GP layout? Today, we're diving into the legacy of this legendary hybrid track and what makes it so brutally challenging in iRacing.Shows e-mail: theloneroadiracerspodcast@gmail.comYouTube VLOG: https://youtu.be/ExroOp2CSd0Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554966076972 10% off DRE: https://getdre.app/loneiracerN.B: Intro & Outro music by Udio AI music GeneratorSupport the show

On Episode 230 of Inside the SCCA presented by RaceSchool.com we catch up with 2-Time Runoffs Champion Daniel Richardson. We talk about his racing journey… how he almost quit just before winning his first gold medal, and why he loves going to Watkins Glen. This is our final Super Tour preview show of 2025. How time flies. We also talk about one of the best post race interviews in the history of motorsports… and I ask him if his kids have seen the interview. IYKYK… and if you don't click the link below.

Peter Cunningham Interview | Hall of Fame Racer Talks SCCA, Racing Legacy & RaceSchool.comOn Episode 227 of Inside the SCCA presented by RaceSchool.com we catch up with my first driver coach – none other than SCCA Hall of Famer Peter Cunningham. Side note: he doesn't remember that fateful day back in the 80's and that's probably a good thing. Peter joins me to talk about his Hall of Fame career… and help us get ready for the June Sprints. A race he won in 1984… and a race he'll try to win again this weekend. I really enjoyed connecting with one of the club's finest… and I think you'll enjoy the conversation too.

Our first Pride Month guest episode!

Listener Request - Re-Release GHIT 0183:  Racing 101 Part 4:  Buying and Selling a Race Car or a Soon to be Race Car We are getting back to our podcast roots and wanted to start a special series Vicki calls “So You Wanna Racecar” that Bill can't seem to say correctly.  This is part 4 of the series (of ~10). On this episode, we try to summarize the process involved with finding and buying a “new to you” car, or for those with a problem (Like Bill) how to best prepare to sell your car.  Lara Vernon is on as our guest for a second time and is involved with buying and selling cars in her real life where she owns a boutique exotic car dealership called “Rare Exotic Vehicles” in Asheville NC that deals with very cool vintage cars and hot rods from the 1930's on.  The discussion deals with all types of cars, from a daily driver to a race car to a future race car to a parts car for the race car.  Lara's advice will save you time and money and get you further towards your goal.  You may even find that flipping cars or parting out cars can help support your racing.  This is one of the rare cases where the magician gives away a few of the secrets. Please let us know if we missed anything that you may want discussed in a future episode of our Racing 101 Series.  The outline for the series is: Part 1:  Building Your First Racecar (and options to not) Part 2:  Safety and Safety Related Equipment Needed Part 3:  Best Entry Points To Start Performance Driving Part 4:  Buying and Selling Cars (With Special Guest Lara Vernon) Part 5:  Going To and From The Event/Track – What To Expect Part 6:  Paddock and Pit – Best Practices Part 7:  Perspective of a New Driver (With Guest Adam Owens) Part 8:  Tools, Spares, Supplies Needed for a Race Weekend Part 9:  Common Issues All Drivers Will/May Experience in When On Track For the First Time Part 10:  Miscellaneous Topics (& Things We Forget to Mention Earlier) On this episode of Dominating with Dawson we go into how high performance driving education (HPDE) helps everyone on public roads, whether you have driven for decades or even if you are a new or soon to be new driver.  It helps in all areas including the use of controls within the car as well as increasing the ability for the driver to anticipate and read the road and other drivers.  We know of nothing that can be more effective in improving your driving as well as reducing the likelihood of an incident on public roads and everyday driving situations.  Our three hosts all agree but each has a different number one improvement area that they feel has been improved through our driving education events and driving on track.  We then wander into the relative safety of being on a track vs off track/on public roads.  For those keeping score at home, the track is way safer than driving on public streets, even if you don't count the safety equipment improvements involved with a prepared race car.     Highlights from this episode include: 1)  We start off with a review of Lara's recent win with her team on the 24 Hours of Daytona on iRacing where she will be getting her iRolex. 2)  Critical aspects of the car searching process, what to avoid, what to look for, and how to look for things that will indicate a well taken care of car.  3)  How the discussion of the car can lead to even better deals, both on the phone and eventually in person when possible. 4)  Several of her favorite sites to look for cars online.  Bill shares the Auto Tempest addiction and has a large set of open searches that he is always looking at, much to the irritation of Vicki. 5)  Two words to try to avoid in most cases are accident and rust without a lot of further detail and investigation, rust being at the top of the list. 6)  Lara also goes into the current market pricing and demand that she is seeing and how things are changing, even during our current COVID situation.  It seems to be a seller's market currently. 7)  We also cover the transaction from the perspective of the seller.  Yes Bill, you can sell cars as well.  Try it.  You might make Vicki happier. 8)  Tips on how to inspect a car, what to look for, and where to get background on the particular model. Body, engine, fluids (level and color/smell), paint, with plenty of tips and tricks.  Note to self:  Do not let Lara near our race cars, they may not inspect well, lol. 9)  Somehow, we ended up talking about our award winning race at the 24 Hours of Lemons race in Thompson Connecticut during our second ever race.  Granted it was the “I Got Screwed Award”, but hey, it is an award, lol. 10)  We also go into a bit about her iRacing results and what is involved in some of her endurance races.  Now if we could just get Jen and Vicki to not get motion sickness. PS If you are preparing to sell a car, another former podcast guest,  Jim Tramontano from “No Money Motorsports”, has a great article on things to do or avoid when listing your car to maximize your selling price and minimize the time on the market.  https://tinyurl.com/SellingRaceCars (Jim, you are way overdue for another episode) Lara's Contact information is:  Her business is are:  www.RareExoticVehicles.com @Lara.is.racing on Instagram We are getting back to our podcast roots and wanted to start a special series Vicki calls “So You Wanna Racecar” that Bill can't seem to say correctly.  This is part 4 of the series (of ~10).

We talk about what worked and what didn't work as we clean up the tournament structure and broadcast before we roll out our first tourney (hopefully in July).Finally, we give an update on our iRacing streaming events, how that's going and why free to play games like Rocket League creates lower barriers to entry for average gamers (versus sim racing).

Unleash your inner speed demon as we dive into the adrenaline-fueled world of high-performance racing simulations.   In this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Brian McRae, a professional sim racer who approaches the virtual racing world with the same dedication and seriousness as traditional motorsports, viewing it as a legitimate discipline within the racing community. He asserts that modern racing simulators offer a level of fidelity and realism akin to flight simulators, making them highly effective training tools for aspiring racers.
