About this episode

The episode discusses recent driver changes in racing, a notable event in the Summer Nationals, and a thrilling last-lap pass in USAC midget racing.

Two driver changes dropped in the last 24 hours — one looks like a smart pickup that could pay off quickly, and the other has me questioning whether the team pulled the trigger too soon. Plus, a Summer Nationals drought gets snapped after six years, and a last-lap pass for a USAC midget win that you need to see.
