Danny Bohn a 3rd Generation driver watching his father race throughout the years and then got to hop in a seat himself Danny Bohn started his racing career at Wall Stadium running bandoleros and started winning right away capturing 13 wins out of a 16 race seasonHe then moved up to a SK Light the following year where he continued his winning ways where he clicked off 6 wins and then the following year another 7 wins both resulting in championships along with a Turkey Derby win in 2006Became good friends with long time chassis guru Ray Everham and moved his operation down south where he jumped into a dirt modified after making a deal with Ray when he got down there Did that for a couple years which resulted in a championship at East Lincoln Got his feet wet for the first time at Bowman Gray at 2011 Jumped into a Whelen Southern Modified and went racing full time in 2012 with his father where they started with a couple wins but 2013 was his kick in the nuts year which resulted him destroying a car not once but 2 times in about the span of a month but had a great season none the less the trouble finishing with in the top 10 of points of a heavily fledged field of modified racers down south.2014 he double dutied running a car at Bowman Gray full time along with the Whelen Southern Modified Tour winning a handful of races at Bowman Gray and stamped his championship down that year at Bowman by winning the 150 lap season finale at Bowman. Etching his name in the record books at the mad house that is flooded by Burt Myers and Tim Brown. Along with that has won every big modified race you possibly can at Bowman including the North South Shootout 199 2 times (2014/2015) before they got rid of the race.Fast forward to 2018/2019 he got a call from a guy to run a modified down south at On Point Motorsports to where he glanced over at their team Nascar Truck sitting there and said "I really wanna drive that" After getting some funding from a close friend that knew Brantley Gilbert and made a deal come together at the end of the 2019 season Danny made his first Nascar Truck start at Martinsville Speedway. Even got to party backstage with Brantley himself after unveiling the truck. Danny first race was a eye opener heavier chassis different gauges 27 people yelling at you over the radio but he stayed competitive throughout the whole race all the way to the checkered where a maylay ensued sandwiching Danny and popping both his right side tires as he crossed the finish line in 8th place, which was the best finish first start by a rookie in Nascar Trucks until most recently.He went to finish out the year with On Point Motorsports racing at Phoenix and Homestead which was a big eye opener for a guy that was use to just running modifieds with nerf bars to being 2 feet off a fence at 160 mph plus at Homestead or running a hard dog leg at Phoenix.2020 he came back to On Point Motorsports half way through the season where he got a little taste of a full season in what we claim the big leagues of stock car racing. Best finish that year was again Martinsville finishing 7th so you can say he had that tracks number but really opened his eyes to the bigger tracks like Talladega, Las Vegas, Kansas, Texas, Richmond, Darlington and a couple others.2021 is when Covid affected all of the world and made a guy that barely got his feet wet make his practice time put into a climb in and start the race situation.Daytona being his first start there that year was a big eye opener almost went full flight miles that race aswell but didnt get the FULL experience or seat time throughout that year which played dividends to his learning curve to it all.2022 made his first start in a Xfinity Car at Daytona finishing 8th which is crazy and then ran one more race at Darlington before he went back to his roots of Modified racing. Dont get me wrong Danny was running a modified sometimes double duty while doing all this throughout 2019 to 2022 This guy spent 3 hours talking with us while trimming up body panels on his modified to sweeping his floor in the shop sharing his story I can say Danny got to experience some cool moments from running Bandos as a kid to running full blown modifieds around Charlotte Legends tracks to running a full season in trucks and slinging dirt at Eldora and almost taking flight at Daytona It was awesome to talk to him and we hope you enjoy it as well !

Racing dirt Modifieds was the safest thing that "The Flying Farmer" Gene Munger ever did. He was a hometown star at Devil's Bowl Speedway, but that's just a small piece of who he is; he's been shot, he has fallen through ice (twice), he wrapped his motorcycle around a deer, and he's wrecked some racecars, but he's still standing upright and telling the stories! You CAN NOT miss this episode of Uncommon Deeds!
Senator Stanley leads off the second segment of the show when he sits down with the Southern Modified SMART Tour Director Chris Williams, his new announcer, the” Mark Twain of Modifieds,” Bob Dillner, and the Tour Flag Man Extraordinaire, Jeff Bunton, for an in-depth and hilarious conversation about everything SMART Tour and the current state of local short track racing, and they even get to talk about the amazing growth and stature of the SMART series both now, and where it is going in the future. Listen as Chris Williams sets up Bob Dillner for some relentless teasing from the Senator about his announcing of the SMART Tour races this year, and then the group welcomes in a true NASCAR® Legend, Former Race Director for the Cup Series and current SMART Series Race Director David Hoots, to hear his perspective on both the history and current state of both modified and stock car racing. But, the first segment of Leaning Right and Turning Left With Sadler and The Senator is electrifying. First, Bill and Hermie discuss how their team of Bobby Labonte, Ryan Newman and Jonathan Cash did during the weekend of racing at Richmond and South Boston, and then Sadler and the Senator address a political “push poll” put out by Hermie's Republican opponent in the nominating contest for the 17th State Senate race that assert facts about Sadler that just may be far from the truth (and way out of bounds) in an attempt to sway voters against Sadler. Hermie responds to each outlandish poll question, and his responses are priceless, and they expose to you, the listener, the dark side of establishment internal politics. As Larry the Cable Guy Says in the intro, grab a cold beer and pull your chair up close to your phone because you won't want to miss this episode of Leaning Right and Turning Left with Sadler and the Senator!

On today's episode of All Gas, No Brakes, Kollin Hibdon joins Scott Barglof discussing the 25th Annual Duel in the Desert. Kollin started in the Modified ranks in 2019 and has shown nothing but success and more speed each year. At the young age of 19 he has a lot of triumphs to show.From Pahrump, Nevada, Kollin looks at the Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway almost like a home track. Located 45 miles away, just over the hump, his parents reside. The Duel in the Desert is one of the only events his grandparents are able to make which means a lot to Kollin.Scott asked about what it would mean to Kollin to pick up the victory at this year's duel, “It would mean a whole lot to me. It'd be cool to get it done in front of the home crowd and all the people that get to come see me,” Kollin stated. “I think we learned a lot at the Workin' Man and the Open Nationals and I think that's going to play into our favor pretty good coming into the Duel here.”Kollin has found momentous success after converging forces with U-Motors Race Team and the Arnesons based in Fargo, North Dakota. Tragically in early July a teammate of the U-Motors Race Team lost his life in an accident. Casey Arneson was a big influence on Kollin his first year in Fargo and raced side-by-side together. “He wouldn't want us to sit around here and be sad and make a negative out of the situation,” Kollin said when asked about the difficulty of getting back in the car after the incident. Kollin doesn't have any solid plans for the future other than giving everything he has in the Modifieds, but would never turn down the opportunity to race a Late Model. Kollin has a bright future ahead of him and we all look forward to continuing to watch his progression.
