Garage Heroes In Training

An amateur endurance auto racing team hoping to show everyone that they too can participate in performance driving or racing. We are a relatively new team and learning right along with you. Our assumption is that you know very little to nothing about the sport but are interested in learning to drive better and eventually maybe even race in a local event of interest. We will cover all forms of racing and hope to be entertaining as well as educational.

While we agree with trying to improve as a driver and getting faster, they can often be the same, but are two distinct aspects of driving and racing. A link to the episode is:
