Send us a textRacing isn't just what Tyler Roering does—it's who he is. From his earliest memories of causing ruckus in his dad's race shop to becoming a multi-discipline champion, Tyler's life revolves entirely around motorsports. As a third-generation racer from Plymouth, Indiana, his racing lineage stretches back to the 1960s, creating a family tradition that continues to shape his identity and career.What separates Tyler from many competitors is his comprehensive approach to racing. His father instilled a crucial lesson early: if you want to race, you need to understand every aspect of the machine beneath you. This hands-on philosophy has become Tyler's cornerstone, leading him to believe firmly that "races are won in the shop, not on the track." His technical expertise extends beyond his own racing program through Rocket Fabrication and Suspension, where he's built a reputation as an elite shock specialist serving racers nationwide.Tyler's versatility as a driver is extraordinary. At 34, he actively campaigns three different race vehicles: a non-wing sprint car, an outlaw late model he's raced since age 17, and a USAC Silver Crown car. His recent success includes multiple wins in the Reveal the Hammer Series at Berlin Raceway, where he's developed a special affinity for the challenging Michigan track. Behind these achievements stands a dedicated crew consisting entirely of friends who support his racing purely out of passion—no paychecks, just shared love for the sport.Perhaps most inspiring is Tyler's resilience. After a devastating 2014 accident at Anderson Speedway left him with multiple broken bones and confined to a wheelchair for months, many would have reconsidered their racing career. Instead, Tyler returned to that very track and won two Little 500 events, creating what he calls a "full-circle" moment in his journey. Now, his sights are set on conquering Winchester Speedway, the intimidating high-banked oval that remains his most coveted bucket-list victory.Whether you're a die-hard racing enthusiast or simply appreciate stories of dedication and perseverance, Tyler's journey demonstrates the true spirit of American short-track racing. Follow his continued pursuit of excellence as he balances the demanding roles of driver, builder, and business owner in his quest for racing glory.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

From a meticulously restored Panos destined for a private museum to unconventional engine swaps that challenge conventional wisdom, Richard's projects showcase the ingenuity that defines passionate automotive specialists.The heart of our conversation reveals the calculated risks automotive enthusiasts take when pursuing their passion.

Here's a story of a young lady that has an incredibly supportive father, who helped her rent her first farm at 14. I'm sure this is commonplace... Have a listen as I talk with Minnisota farmer Elsie Risacher
In my family, we have a generational heritage of working on cars. Well, except for my brother. He has no interest in working on cars and has asked me why I do it. He's been known to buy a car without ever popping the hood to see what the engine bay looks like. It's okay. He has skills in other areas, so I'll give him some grace on that. For me, it seems like part of my DNA. I love the satisfaction I get from taking on a new challenge, pushing myself to learn a new kind of repair, taking that post-repair test drive...
