No Time To Be Scared: Jeremy Gerstner plus CARS Tour Star Brandon Pierce

No Time To Be Scared: Jeremy Gerstner plus CARS Tour Star Brandon Pierce

Episode 122 is on the scene and we welcome CARS Tour veteran Brandon Pierce to the show. Pierce is set to begin his second season with Carroll Speedshop and tells us what he's been up to this off season and how him and the team plans on rebounding from a season Brandon would assume to forget. He also gives his thoughts on the state of Late Model Racing and much more!

Wesley Chapel Florida's Jeremy Gerstner saw his season end and perhaps his life flash behind his eye last February at New Smyrna Speedway while preparing for the annual World Series of Asphalt. A stuck throttle ended his season and put the veteran racer in a wheelchair. In an exclusive to the podcast, Gerstner takes us back to when the crash happened, fearing he would not be able to walk again, how NASCAR took care of him during his recovery and the long road back to the racecar. He also shares how he feels about coming back to the same place that nearly ended his career.


We review the Cook Out Clash and Modified Classic at Bowman Gray Stadium. We review the impact this has on Winston Salem, the enjoyment level of the event and whether or not it should be moved around or kept at the Stadium for a bit. 

The Icebreaker at Florence Motor Speedway is this weekend and give our picks for the weekend and some names to watch out for on Saturday. We also talk about the STAR Super Stock Tour opener at the same track, modifieds at New Smyrna and take you inside the garage area at the Rockingham test with sound bites from Kasey Kahne, Craftsman Truck Series Champion Ty Majeski, Layne Riggs and a Commanding exchange with Rajah Caruth.
