Dominating with Dawson

Learned Since DwD? We did

DwD 0420:  What Have We Learned Since DwD’s Started

The scariest question Bill has ever attempted.  We ask Jennifer, Vicki, and Ben what they have learned since we started the Dominating with Dawson series.  Do we hear crickets?  Did we help any of us?  And the biggest concern, did Ben learn anything?  This could be the shortest episode ever.  Is it? So what is the biggest thing that you have Learned Since DwD series started on the podcast?  Cue the cricket sound machine.

DwD 0420:  What Have We Learned Since DwD’s Started

WindShadow Studios – Mike Woeller

Wind Shadow

GHIT 0419:  WindShadow Studios Mike Woeller

Want to take some better pictures of you or your team at the track?  We do, so we asked for a few tips and tricks from Mike Woeller.  Mike started as a journalist and then taught photography.  He then gradually shifted his focus to motorsports photography and started WindShadow Studios.  Mike can be seen at a variety of tracks in the northeast and is one of the primary sources of track photos for a variety of series in the region.  While we aren’t ever going to take photos as well as Mike, we learned a few things and will definitely be a bit better next season.

What is Race Craft and Favorite Examples

DwD 0418:  Jargon 101:  What is Race Craft and Favorite Examples

Ben, Jeremy, and Bill are unsupervised again this week, so why not end this session with a clean and simple Jargon episode.  Ever wonder what race craft is?  Much like defining “time”, race craft is often understood but difficult to describe.  If you want to listen to us struggle, this may be the episode for you.

Did we get it right?  If not, let us know.

Also, Read and Blake, you have been challenged.

We also go into our favorite or best part of race craft.  So, what is yours?

Traveling to a Race – What to Bring, Especially if Flying

DwD 0416:  Traveling to a Race – What to Bring, Especially if Flying

While Jeremy was with us, Ben and Bill took advantage of his extensive travelling schedule to race and we discuss the best way to travel and pack for racing, especially if an airplane is involved.  We get into what to bring and what not to bring, as well as how to bring the items.  We also give a few options that may make things easier for the trip and minimize risk.

This is another unshepherded episode.  The story starts with “So there I was…..”  Oh my.

The Best Track Car

Best car to race

DwD 0414:  The Best Track Car

On this episode, the first Dominating with Dawson of the new year, we try to start of with an easy one and not stir up the internet in any way.  Naturally, we chose to define what is the best track car.  We approach this from the perspective of a first timers’ ideal track car to an intermediate level track car.  We also cover many of the more important considerations to take into account when choosing your best car. 

If you think of a better car or cars, please let us know and we will include this in another discussion in this area.  Also, please be warned, Ben and Bill were joined with Jeremy, but all of them were unattended.  No Jen and No Vicki leads to these debacles, lol.

Please let us know if we missed something or if you have any questions at [email protected].
