Dillon “EJ2 Track Rat” Brennan

Returns for a Second Lap

GHIT 0421: Dillon “EJ2 Track Rat” Brennan Returns for a Second Lap

We are long overdue in having Dillon back onto the podcast. Dillon was one of our early guests and is a staple at the local NASA Northeast events in Honda Challenge and as an instructor. Don’t forget to tune into Dillon’s EJ2 Track Rat YouTube channel and watch and learn how to prep a race car very well, yet quite frugally. During this episode we talk to Dillon about his plans for creating a race car for the NASA Northeast volunteers and friends to get out on track and enjoy racing. We also get into his current projects and preparations for the upcoming national event this summer at PittRace. We will also be going to nationals with some friends to meet and root for a bunch of racing friends.

As a bonus, we go over a stress free way to decide on a baby name. What other racing podcast gives you these kinds of insights? What we do for our listeners, lol.

Jess Stratton

From the Shifting Points podcast’s- Her First Track Day

GHIT 0338: Jess Stratton From the Shifting Points podcast’s First Track Day

We have an upcoming race at NJMP’s Thunderbolt track next weekend, so we took advantage of the NASA Northeast’s HPDE event this weekend to get a bit of track time for our friends from the Shifting Points podcast who will be racing with us. This will be Jess Stratton’s first ever race and today was her first ever track day and great preparation for the race. Vicki was going to explode if we made her wait any longer for a review of the day, so here is an unedited episode with Vicki and Jeremy asking Jess Stratton about her first time on track. Oh, Bill was there too.

Audra and Lisa will be arriving tonight for Sunday’s events. We will obviously be talking more about this weekend in upcoming episodes of our podcast and perhaps even on the Shifting Points podcast.
