Humans of Racing, Episode 2: Sam Goldsmith Shares Stories From the Road Aug 09, 2018

Recently, Sam Goldsmith took a trip to the first F3 Americas race of the season in Pittsburgh where he was punched in the face! We ask Sam to share a little about that experience...

We also took this Thursday to throw things back a little bit and re-live some stories from travelling on the road. Highlights include:

-Chris Hogue being both the victim and instigator in some pretty epic pranks.

-Celebrating my 21st birthday in Nazareth, Pennsylvania.

-Steve Namisnak having his leg broken after being run over before a pitstop, then being dragged up by a teammate to finish the stop!

-Sam dragging Helio Castroneves out of an upside-down burning car in Richmond.

-Receiving a letter from a hotel informing our team we were not welcomed back.

And much more!

Once again, thanks to Sam Goldsmith for taking the time. Enjoy!

Humans of Racing, Episode 1: Remembering Mo Nunn Racing with Sam Goldsmith Jul 26, 2018

On July 18, 2018, the racing world was given the sad news that Morris Nunn had passed away.

Nunn was best known for engineering the back-to-back-to-back championships with Target Chip Ganassi Racing and its drivers Alex Zanardi (1997, 1998) and Juan Montoya (1999).

Prior to his foray in American open-wheel racing, he spent the 70s and 80s working in Formula 1, and after this three-peat of championships with Ganassi, he started his own Champ Car, and eventually, IndyCar team in 2000.

One of Nunn's former mechanics on his Champ Car and IndyCar team, Sam Goldsmith, joins the podcast to share stories from his time with the team. We laughed, we cried, and more importantly, had a good time reminiscing about the "good old days."

Thanks to Sam for taking the time to share some stories.
