In this Break/Fix Pit Stop Minisode, the hosts welcome back legendary sports car driver Hurley Haywood to revisit his defining years with Audi in Trans-Am and IMSA. Hurley explains how Bob Tullius and Audi brought him into the program after he broke his leg, describes Group 44's professionalism, and contrasts team dynamics once Audi factory engineers controlled strategy and development. He recounts early surprises with the Quattro, learning all-wheel-drive technique, and how the cars became overwhelmingly dominant, winning a Trans-Am championship before SCCA banned four-wheel drive and IMSA piled on weight and engine restrictions that rarely slowed them. Haywood discusses the advanced 90 Quattro GTO, politics that ended Audi's program, his brief Ferrari F40 IMSA experience, lessons from Walter Röhrl, and reflections on technology, dominance, and Audi's prospects in Formula 1. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Hurley Haywood Returns 01:54 Injury to Audi Opportunity 03:21 Audi Quattro First Test 04:49 Bob Tullius Team Culture & Factory Team Dynamics 08:25 Quattro Dominates TransAm 09:47 IMSA 90 Quattro Monster 14:17 Penalties Couldnt Stop Audi 16:26 Rivals Rage and BOP Politics Begin 20:03 Audi Track Antics ...

“We Laughed, We Broke Cars, We Grew: A Year of Ridiculous Racing Stories”Welcome back to Everyone Racers — the podcast built for every wrench-turner, garage philosopher, track-rat, Lemons lifer, and endurance racing addict out there. Whether you're wrenching on a hopeless Craigslist find or prepping for ChampCar, Lucky Dog, SCCA, NASA, or Lemons, you're in good company here.In this Wedge Ep 413 Tim sees his ENTIRE family and makes memories, Chris tells you how to destroy a bridge in Kansas and Chrissy likes people in CO while Mental rejects a meeting with F1 star Alex AlbonReally it's our annual hippie thankful episode as we reminisce on great and cool people, places and experiences we had this year! Come with us as we take a deep dive into a full season of amateur racing: the victories, the disasters, the questionable decisions, the creative themes, the friendships, and the laughs that made 2025 unforgettable.We open with the classic E1R humor and Mopar nerdiness: the legendary 413 Max Wedge engine and why “the wedgie wins again” still makes us giggle Then we jump into a whirlwind of stories from the road and the paddock:F1 qualifying in Las Vegas and sneaking into better seats because track workers weren't enforcing anything Judging at Road America, NOLA, Buttonwillow, New Hampshire, and more, including Barbie-themed chaos, airplane costumes, and the infamous “...just $30 a day will keep Greg drunk…” signs Being part of a massive amateur-racing community where listeners reach out for help with everything from roll-cage builders in DFW to Mazda3 parts lists, and how this community of listeners has grown enough that we can connect racers across the country We also reflect on:Seat time wins, broken flip flops, and hobby-horsing through the paddock at Pitt RaceOff-the-grid trips to remote campsites, ghost towns, and the “tippy-top” of Maine where even Starlink barely kept us alive How aging racers adapt — glasses, hearing aids, sensible eating, and the humbling moment when Mental was reminded he can't keep up with Tim all weekend anymore This episode is a celebration of what makes grassroots motorsport magical:

Ever wonder how grassroots motorsports clubs like the SCCA keep the tires turning? In this final episode of our three-part series, SCCA VP Hayward Wagner dives deep into the growth engine that is Track Night in America and the enduring culture of SCCA Autocross (Solo).

Learn the core philosophy behind Track Night's massive success ("Fastest way to get on track") and the biggest challenge facing the SCCA: inventory (finding available racetracks!).
