DwD 0456:  The “Hoopties” Documentary

On this episode of Dominating with Dawson, with no Dawson, we talk about the recently released award winning documentary “Hoopties”.  The documentary covers three race teams and compiles the results of three races, coincidentally the documentary kicks off at the first ever race for Garage Heroes In Training at NJMP Thunderbolt.  Hopefully, we can have someone on to go into this a bit more.

DwD 0453:  What to Do after an Accident

On this episode of Dominating with Dawson, we talk about what to do and what not to do after having an accident on track.  You may be surprised by what we have seen and what has been done after an accident.  There are many things to do while still being on the track and even more things that you should do after removing you and your car from the track.  And a few good stories about what not to do, lol.

Plus Ben calls out the Jabroni that may be inside you and then eventually we discuss the HBO show “The Wire”.  Where else can you find this type of racing related information.

DwD 0451:  Hand Signals for the Track

On this Dominating with Dawson, we talk about several of the more common hand signals that are used on track.  While hand signals are much more common, and usually required, at HPDE events, they can be used while racing to the advantage of both cars and drivers.

Is Perfection Keeping You From Starting

Perfection

DwD 0446:  Is Perfection Keeping You From Starting

On this episode we talk about what we see as the second most frequent issue that we see that keeps people from going on track or from autocrossing etc.  That is the pursuit of perfection in preparation.  We go over the base level of driving and car preparation to get started and several of the most frequent “reasons” that the person can’t start until its done.  This includes big brake kits, turbo additions, engine swaps, racing slicks, and many, many others.  (The most prominent reason that we see is that the person did not know it was possible.  Since you ae reading this, you likely know that everyone is welcome to come out and get started.)
