He's Dialed What? Podcast

Another repeat champion on our tour from 2020 and looking to do it again in 2022! Bill Sanford champions the 8.50 index category and talks about how "winging it" is still working out well for him. He also discusses plans for 2022 for both himself and his daughter.

A young lady with a lot of pride and passion for racing. Kaylee and her family talks about a phenomenal 2021 season that included both a division and track championship in 2 different vehicles! A great listen for our younger audience who is still trying to find their way and motivation in racing.

A first time champion and in dramatic fashion! Relive the fantastic season of our 12.50 index champion Scott Almstrom as he walks us through the thrill of a miraculous comeback and how he managed to do it in a vehicle he drives to the track.

A THREE-PEAT! Although this is only the second interview we've had with Andy, a third championship in a row is not something to lightly glaze over. Not only do we talk about Andy's success, but the success of his wife and how much fun it's been racing with your spouse!

Championship talks continue with Ralph Blackburn today! He is a returning champion from 2020 and we take a deep dive into the 2021 season and get really into the numbers. Always a great listen with Ralph in the spotlight!

This month has been a real sour note on the 2021 season so far, with numerous tracks along the east coast being affected heavily by the amount of rainfall we've had in the month of July. We've missed talking with you guys about racing, so to get everyone excited for a truly great race coming up, we talk with our original guest, Craig Rice, about the Papa Ray Rice Memorial race coming to New England Dragway on July 24. Also, we have our first team outing of the season at Bristol, Tennessee for the kids, bounty program and technical glitches as part of our discussion today.   TIME STAMPS   Podcast Listings & General Information - 1:00 Papa Ray Rice Memorial race breakdown - 17:05 Bounty Program, Timing System Glitches, Wrap-up - 38:00

Some of these drivers have waited since July 8, 2019 to get another crack at a national event Wally boasting Epping's name and NOW we are finally here. The 2021 running of the NHRA national event at Epping comes to town this week and we brought a plethora of guests to give us some of their insight to the upcoming weekend and their own racing careers. By far, our longest episode thus far on the podcast and with the most guest speakers. We'll come back next week and break it down, hopefully with some racer spotlights with winners at the national event this weekend but we're bringing lots of stories with some local favorites at this week's upcoming event.
