F-R Racing's Garage Talk

Release Date: 06-30-2023 16:00

D.J. is back from vacation and we have a lot of milestones to celebrate (hence the long episode). First, this week is the two-year anniversary of the formation of F-R Racing, LLC. We're celebrating breaking 1000 Instagram followers and having a big surge on TikTok.

Next, we're celebrating a successful completion of the Behind Closed Doors IR-18 series featuring an Erik win at Las Vegas, Erik clinching the championship, and D.J. walking in and racing to a 3rd place finish only 0.063 behind Erik! Finally, this is episode 50 of F-R Racing's Garage Talk! We celebrate the only way we know how... with Jeppson's Malört shots (with D.J. doing the full Chicago Handshake with Old Style Beer).

We recap the last year of F-R Racing and how we've improved, and things we've done differently from year one to the start of year two. Next, we talk about the AFSP 200, suicide, mental health, and how athletes commonly struggle with mental health issues after their careers end.

Oh, and congratulations to Ty Ginter, the winner of our Ricky Stenhouse Jr giveaway!

Finally, we close out the episode by previewing the NASCAR Chicago Street Race and the chaos it will surely create.

Wednesday Night Dash returns July 26th at 10pm eastern in the ARCA Menards series cars. ?Registration is open now?! The schedule has been expanded to 10 races and the season fee reduced to $40.

Behind Closed Doors returns on August 11th at 10pm eastern in the Dallara IR-18 cars once again. Registration is open now and is FREE! We're hoping to keep the IR-18 alive until the broadcast ban on the car is lifted.
