Note sull'episodio
This week on Racer Radio, Dave Stall, Brittany Sandoval, and Brandon combine grassroots motorsports, Porsche culture, and a surprisingly serious debate over Oreo flavors. The action starts with Dirt Dude reporting from Barona Speedway, including Chance Wade’s third IMCA Sport Compact main-event victory and Steven Looch earning a SoCal EcoWater-sponsored opportunity to compete at the Boone Super Nationals in Iowa. Dirt Dude also makes the case for volunteering at local tracks—a great way to stay involved in racing without owning a race car.
Legendary motorsports announcer Scott Delosio joins the show to share how a $200 announcing job in 1988 unexpectedly launched a career spanning nearly four decades. His philosophy is simple: “If you say no, you are going to wonder.” Scott also discusses the arrival of IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Cars at seven West Coast tracks, potentially giving racers a more affordable route into sprint car competition without the enormous engine budgets associated with higher-level sprint cars.
Then the show shifts from dirt tracks to Porsches as Michael Zurich, President of the Porsche Club of America San Diego Region, and his wife Stace join the conversation. With more than 3,200 members, the club offers everything from autocross and backcountry drives to dinners and mystery weekends, while emphasizing that Porsche ownership doesn’t have to be pretentious. Brittany recently made the move from Dwarf Car racing into a Porsche 944 and talks about discovering a community where a $25,000 Porsche can be just as welcome as a six-figure 911. And because this is Racer Radio, the crew somehow finds time for a blind Oreo taste test—including the very important question of whether Chicken & Waffles Oreos actually taste like chicken.
Listen to the full episode for grassroots racing news, sprint cars, Porsche culture, autocross, volunteering, and the kind of unpredictable bench racing that makes Racer Radio Racer Radio.
