    GHiT 0640: Evan McLaren – 2024 Club TR Champion

    With the 2024 GridLife season ending a PittRace a few weeks ago, there were two people competing for the top of the podium and it all came down to this weekend. No stress, easy peasy. Well maybe not. We go through the entire season with Evan and as is normal, everything appears easy and he is an overnight success. That is never the case.

    GHiT 0639 Lena Chin

    Past to Present and Promising Future

    We finally met Lena Chin at the GridLife PittRace event a few weeks back. (Thank you Nick) and could not wait to have her on the podcast. In this episode, we cover some of Lena's racing history, how she got involved with GridLife and GLTC, as well as what some of her upcoming plans are for the next few years. There is also a rumored bonus content, but don't believe everything you read on the internet.

    GHiT 0636: Ryan Susca - Upgrades to Your Trailer and RV for Racing (and life)

    We catch up with Ryan Susca and interrogate him on what he has done to his trailers and RV's that make them the envy of everyone in the paddock. With the season winding down and winter project season starting locally, this may be the best time to do a little upgrade project that will help make next season the best ever.

    GHiT 0635: PittRace: GridLife Review and Lucky Dog Preview

    Racing schedule for 2024 ends this year with the national championship with GridLife and then the first Lucky Dog race in the northeast. Nick Barbato was/will be with us at both, so we cover a post GridLife and a pre Lucky Dog. Two of our favorite racing series and a time for us to test and dial in the E46 330.

    PS Bill at the track with no mechanical support from the team. What could go wrong? Well, the team officially apologizes to everyone at GridLife and those we talked to remotely trying to troubleshoot a (very simple) issue.

    What did we learn: When you have tried everything that is complicated, perhaps you should look at the simple things. Soooooooooo dumb sometimes, but always in training.

    We do appreciate the help of Dewie, Scott and Becky, Isaac, Jason, and everyone else Bill pestered in the paddock. Repeatedly.

    GHiT 0634: Tires Age and Feel Like What

    We had a recent podcast related to tires and maintaining the tires, but upon further review, we did not go into how the tires can degrade and what that can feel like. So we did.

    What did we miss?
