– All About B Spec Racing and More

GHIT 0408: Frank Schwartz – All About B Spec Racing and More

Frank Schwartz is a racer and owner of Grass Paddock Motorsports that rents B Spec Honda Fits and Mini Coopers. He is also known online as the stepfather of B Spec racing. Frank seems to be a proud father to be of a potential new class of C Spec racing for the SCCA. Frank is involved with getting people into the sport at a reasonable budget. We ended up talking a great deal about racing in general, the motivations, as well as what you can get out of racing beyond “winning” the race.

If you are ever interested in trying out B Spec racing, Grass Paddock Motorsports may be a great option. Especially if you are getting started and may be an even better option to stay racing. While we are here, you know we couldn’t help but ask what to do to get involved in B Spec racing and prepare a car. Or two. Well, maybe 3. How about 4. That sounds better. #VickiIsGoingToKillBill

Kyle Heyer The Voice of GridLife

GHIT 0407: Kyle Heyer The Voice of GridLife

In our totally biased opinions, the GridLife live stream is the best motorsports events on TV/YouTube, and we lose so much time in the garage when they are on for the weekend. Kyle Heyer is the lead presenter and commentator for the GridLife series and has worked hosting other series including SRO on live streams and broadcast television. In addition, Kyle is involved with the GridLife team in setting up the time attack series to improve the presentation on the livestream. We recorded prior to the schedule release at PRI so we talk around the schedule and the recently released proposed rules changes. It was a bit of a change of pace, but if you ever wanted to hear Kyle talk about himself, here is a great opportunity.

Street Driving Practice

and Bad Habits to Be Aware of for Track Driving

DwD 0406: Street Driving Practice and Bad Habits to Be Aware of for Track Driving

Most of us are unfortunately unable to be on track as much as we would like and end up with a majority of our driving being on the streets and highways. During this episode, we try to talk about several things that you can do to legally improve your track driving, especially in the off season. We also go into a few areas where normal driving can create habits that would be bad to use on a track. We hope this will help you improve and reduce or eliminate the potential bad habits that would need to be broken that can be picked up street driving. A great byproduct of this is that it will make you a better and a safer driver every time you are behind the wheel.

Co Head Honcho of GridLife, Adam Jabaay comes on the podcast before the 2023 announcements and talks about how 2022 went for GridLife and what he is looking forward to for 2023. We were finally able to get to our first GridLife events at NJMP this summer and short visit to the Lime Rock event. Adam talks a good bit about the Lime Rock and several stories from the event, as well as several of the other highlights from the season including the first ever Enduro event at PittRace. We were able to talk a bit about the upcoming years schedule and potential rule changes and modifications and the reasoning behind them. 2022 was an amazing year for GridLife and we expect 2023 to be even better.

We aren’t going to be able to attend the upcoming PRI but cannot wait to put some GridLife events on our team schedule. Sundae Cup here we come.
