2022 Goal Review and our 2023 Goals

GHIT 0417:  GHiT Goal Review – We Review 2022 and our Goals for 2023

Our team goes over our racing season for 2022 and how we did compared to our goals for the year.  In this annual review, we often find out we did well in many areas and totally blew it in others.  This year was no exception, lol.  We had Alan, Jennifer, Vicki, and Bill, as always, but Jeremy decided to join in for the fun and plan his 2023 with us.  We do this every year and find that it helps.  Some of the goals are more plans and some of them are usually pretty big stretches for us.  But, you never know what you can do until you try.  As a bonus, we look back at 2022 from a big picture perspective and see that we are still “In Training”.  (always will be!)

GHIT 0411:  Adam Owens Rejoins Us For Another Lap

Adam Owens is a friend we met a while back. Originally, he came on as a relatively newbie racer in our World Famous Racing 101 series two years ago.  We catch up with how his racing has been going since and how he progressed into at least Racing 201+.  Adam has been consistently renting seats in endurance racing with the Boston Whiners.  While most of his racing seat time is in wheel-to-wheel racing, he has also been to several high performance driving events to further refine his driving skill.  During this episode, we talk about what he has found to work for him and several of the skills he sees as having helped him on track and several that could be further improved.  We also compare some of the differences between the different racing organizations and tracks that we have attended.

Some great discussion and great tips to improve everyone’s on track performance.
