F-R Racing's Garage Talk Website

F-R Racing was started by two long-time friends who decided that they wanted to break into the racing world as team owners. Unfortunately, they both lacked the proper funding and experience to start a team. When the iRacing system came along, this became the opportunity for F-R Racing to become a real thing. In five years, we've published over 170 episodes of "F-R Racing's Garage Talk" and manage three weekly iRacing leagues right here on Stadium Scene TV.
