GHiT 0506:  Eric Dewey DeWitt

Dewey in
Dewey hosting the IAG podcast

We met Dewey Dewitt for the first time at last year’s GridLife event at NJMP and then again this year where he won the Street Mod class in Time Attack.  We talk about Subarus and Time Attack, two things we haven’t talked about much on the podcast to this point.  If you’ve never been at a track and seen Dewey’s post event celebrations, you really need to come to an upcoming event.  Dewey is currently leading in GridLife’s Street Mod Time Attack.  Also, since we recorded, Dewey has started his own podcast and we can’t wait to subscribe.

In this episode, we talk about: 

  • Some recent changes to Dewey’s racing performance and several aspects that have contributed to the upward trend.
  • Recent addition of podium sprint to GridLife’s Time Attack
  • Is Sundae Cup Time Attack?
  • Ways to successfully race a Subaru
  • What Dewey has done to his time Attack car
  • A great and simple discussion of the various classes in GridLife’s Time Attack series
  • Dewey’s pre-race rituals
  • Some of Dewey’s cars names and why

Glenn Robinson

Glenn Robinson

We first met Glenn Robinson at Mid-Ohio and then he and Bill worked their way up to comp school and instructor school.  In spite of this, he agreed to come on to our podcast, lol.  Glenn currently races primarily with NASA Great lakes and is one of the two co-leaders of the TREC endurance racing series there as well.  In his spare time, he is the Director of Operations at PittRace International.  We were lucky enough to talk to Glenn right after a very successful event where they held the NASA National Championship.

Downshifting in a Turn

DwD 0496:  Downshifting in a Turn

One of the issues that several of our teams’ drivers have had is the proper process and timing when downshifting in a manual car at a turn, especially a high speed turn.  During this episode, Ben goes into a proper sequence of your hands and feet during a turn where downshifting is required.  Hopefully, this will help you as you progress in driving on track with a manual transmission.

If you would like to help grow our sport and this podcast:

Awesome choice #1:  Subscribe to our podcast on the podcast provider of your choice and every episode will show up. 

Even Better:  If you could give our podcast a (5-star?) rating

Mostest Bestest:  if you would leave a podcast review.

We really appreciate it.

We hope you enjoy this episode!
