8 JAN 2024 · As Americans have begun to make their mark in the Dakar Rally over recent years, few have more potential to become long-term icons of the event, or the sport of rally raid, than Seth Quintero. Dominant in American desert racing as a teenager, winning events from the Mint 400 to the UTV World Championship, Quintero earned the call from Red Bull to compete on a global stage for the first time in 2020, and he debuted at Dakar in 2021. In his first two Dakars, he won 18 combined stages in the Light Prototype class, including a record 12 in 2022, before finally scoring his first overall podium with a second place last year. For this year, he’s been promoted to the T1 class with Toyota Gazoo Racing, where he replaces defending event winner Nasser Al-Attiyah.

11 DEC 2023 · If you were to split Brian Deegan’s career into three pieces—motocross, short course, and rallycross—most top racers or riders in each category would be happy to settle for what he accomplished there. On two wheels, Deegan was a pioneer of freestyle motocross whose ghost ride across the finish line in Los Angeles birthed a whole new sport; in off-road trucks, he scored numerous wins and titles, including the Crandon World Championship; in rallycross, he was a regular title contender in Global Rallycross who added multiple medals there to his FMX haul, including gold in 2011. But Deegan’s proudest accomplishment may be that three kids are following in his footsteps. Hailie has parlayed her off-road successes into multiple NASCAR rides, Haiden’s prowess on a 250 earned him the inaugural SuperMotocross title, and Hudson continues to excel in youth motocross.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Brian from May 2019! Other guests from this Off-Road Edition of the show include Andy McMillin and CJ Hutchins.

4 DEC 2023 · Few names in drag racing history can say that they’ve driven for both Don Prudhomme and Don Schumacher, but NHRA legend Ron Capps counts himself among the list. With experience in both Top Fuel and the Funny Car division where he’s found his greatest success, Capps counts dozens of Wallys on his racing record—and he’s one of fewer than 20 racers to have won in both classes. His third career Funny Car title in 2022 was extra sweet for multiple reasons: not only did it come in Capps’ first year of team ownership, it also made him the first driver to win back-to-back titles in 20 years. Capps is also an avid sim racer and fan of anything he can race, making appearances in both the Prelude to the Dream and Superstar Racing Experience events at Eldora Speedway over the years.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Ron from April 2020! Other guests include Supercross icon Jeremy McGrath and esports standout Cam Pedersen.

27 NOV 2023 · If you’ve been missing James Hinchcliffe behind the wheel, rejoice: he’ll be joining his fellow Canadians at Pfaff Motorsports for the endurance races in the 2024 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, starting with January’s Rolex 24 at Daytona. It marks the first outings for the Mayor of Hinchtown since he traded in his NTT IndyCar Series helmet for a microphone at NBC Sports and on F1 TV for the past two years. The Ontario native won six times in his IndyCar career, where he drove for many of the biggest teams in the sport, but perhaps no triumph was bigger than his 2016 Indianapolis 500 pole—which came a year after a crash in practice for that race nearly killed him. Outside of racing, he was runner-up in Season 23 of Dancing with the Stars, and he continues to host Off Track, a podcast of his own with former Andretti Autosport teammate Alexander Rossi.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Hinch from April 2018! Other guests include Steve Arpin, Matthew Brabham, and Blake Wilkey.

20 NOV 2023 · Bryce Menzies capped off a dominant 2023 SCORE World Desert Championship over the weekend by earning the overall win in the 56th SCORE Baja 1000, teaming up with Tavo Vildosola and Andy McMillin to conquer more than 1300 miles up the Baja Peninsula from La Paz to Ensenada. The win made him the 2023 Trophy Truck class champion with three wins in four races, as well as just the 10th driver in history to have won the Baja 1000, Baja 500, and San Felipe 250. Menzies’ accolades extend far beyond SCORE or even just the desert, though; from short course championships in multiple classes, to a pair of wins in the unique Red Bull Frozen Rush, to a 379-foot jump over a New Mexico ghost town to set a Guinness World Record, his name is a consistent presence in record books of all types.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Bryce from March 2018! Other guests include NHRA Top Fuel champion Antron Brown and fellow Baja 1000 champion Justin Lambert.

13 NOV 2023 · The General Tire Jim Beaver Show joins the off-road racing world in mourning the loss of Kyle LeDuc.
The son of the legendary Curt LeDuc, Kyle carved his own impressive legacy over two decades of racing in short course’s biggest events. He turned pro in 2002, won his first Crandon World Championship in Pro Lite in 2003, and his first season-long title the next year. After moving up to Pro 4 in 2008, he became one of the most dominant drivers of a generation, taking seven Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series titles in nine years between 2012 and 2020, hundreds of podiums, multiple Crandon Cup and LOORRS Challenge Cup wins alike, and three Crandon Pro 4 World Championships.
Outside of short course, LeDuc joined Sara Price at Chip Ganassi Racing in Extreme E for that series’ first two seasons. The duo converted a Crazy Race victory in the Island X-Prix into the team’s first race win in July 2022, bringing the team to fourth place in points at year end.
Listen Now: Check out Jim’s first-ever interview with Kyle from November 2012, shortly after Kyle took his first LOORRS Pro 4 title with seven wins and 11 podiums.

6 NOV 2023 · Compressing Travis Pastrana’s career into a short blurb is an impossible task—but when you’ve had so much success in so many disciplines, you almost need no introduction. Maybe you know him from his feats on two wheels, from AMA Motocross and Supercross titles to X Games gold or even his stunts with Nitro Circus. Maybe it’s his four-wheel feats, from numerous American stage rally titles to wins across multiple rallycross disciplines, including the series he founded, Nitrocross. He’s won a Class 1 World Powerboat title, led laps in the Daytona 500, won his class at Pikes Peak, competed in Monster Jam and the World Rally Championship, jumped over fountains in Las Vegas… if you didn’t know him, you’d think we were making this all up. (Wait, did we forget the Gymkhana videos?)

30 OCT 2023 · Antron Brown has been a mainstay of the NHRA’s top levels since 1998, first in Pro Stock Motorcycle and since 2008 in the premier Top Fuel class. After finishing second in PSM points in 2001 and 2006, Brown became drag racing’s first African-American champion when he took the 2012 Top Fuel title; he then added two more in 2015 and 2016. In 2022, the former Don Schumacher Racing driver took over full ownership of his team, which continues to this day as AB Motorsports. Brown and fellow Top Fuel champion Steve Torrence teamed up with Jim Beaver and Jolene Van Vugt to race the 2018 Mint 400. Outside of the cockpit, Brown’s 100-meter dash time was good enough to qualify for the 1997 US Olympic Trials, and he also hosted Top Gear America with William Fichtner and Tom Ford in 2017.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Antron from April 2021! Other guests include Tiffany Stone.

23 OCT 2023 · One of America’s most successful open-wheel racers on a global stage, Alexander Rossi has carved out a career as one of IndyCar’s most compelling drivers. After making five F1 race starts for Manor Marussia in 2015, he stepped back into a reserve role there for 2016 to race for Michael Andretti and Bryan Herta stateside; the partnership paid off with an Indianapolis 500 win in their first try. Giving up his F1 role for good the next year, Rossi spent seven seasons with Andretti, took eight wins, and finished second in points in 2018 before switching to Arrow McLaren for the 2023 season. Outside of IndyCar, he also won the 2021 24 Hours of Daytona alongside Filipe Albuquerque, Helio Castroneves, and Ricky Taylor for Wayne Taylor Racing.
Listen Now: Check out this episode featuring Alexander from January 2021! Other guests include Supercross legend Ryan Dungey.
